Precautions

On safety

•Operate the unit only with a power source as specified in “Specifications” section.

•The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc., is located at the rear.

•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

•Do not drop or place heavy objects on the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, turn off the power immediately. It is dangerous to use the unit with a damaged power cord.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for several days or more.

•Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet by grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord.

•The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

On installation

•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up.

Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.

•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.

On cleaning

To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleansers since they will damage the cabinet. As a safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.

On repacking

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container which to transport the unit. When shipping the unit to another location, repack it as illustrated on the carton.

If you have any questions about this unit, contact your authorized Sony dealer.

On rack mounting

When the monitor is mounted on a rack, the temperature around the monitor may rise due to heat generated from other equipment and reduced air circulation, causing damage to the monitor. To prevent this, keep ventilation holes, install a ventilation fan or take other effective countermeasures so that the temperature around the monitor is within the specified range: operating temperature of 0 to 35 °C (32 to 95°F), optimum temperature of 20 to 30°C (68 to 86°F).

On magnetism

•Do not place the unit near any objects or pieces of equipment which generate magnetism, such as magnets, speakers, electric clocks, toys using magnets, health appliances, etc. Magnetism will cause picture bounce, oscillations or picture discoloration.

•Also, the picture may become fuzzy or the colors may not reproduce correctly due to earth magnetism. This depends on direction that the unit is installed. This is not equipment failure. In such a case, simply degauss the unit.

On the CRT

•Dust accumulates on the CRT easily. Clean the CRT when necessary with a soft cloth.

The surface of the CRT is easily scratched; therefore, do not rub or touch the surface of the CRT unnecessarily since this may result in a scratched picture tube.

•If you touch the surface of the CRT, you may feel a weak electrical shock. This is simply static electricity that is generated on the surface of the CRT. It will not affect the human body.

On displaying the 4:3 signal (BVMD20F1U/D20F1E/D20F1A only)

The 16:9 mask has been attached to the BVMD20F1U/D20F1E/D20F1A at the factory. If the 16:9 button is pressed to change to the 4:3 aspect mode in this condition, the upper and lower portions of the image is hidden by the mask. To display the 4:3 image, replace the 16:9 mask with the supplied 4:3 mask.

For details, see “Installation of the 4:3 Mask” on page 21.

Connector Panel Configuration

The unit comes standard with connectors for one channel of Y/PB/PR or GBR. By adding the optional decoder adaptor or input expansion adaptors, the input/ output connector panel can be assembled in a wide variety of configurations. The signals that each of the adaptors’ connectors supports are given in the table below. The type of signal to be applied to each input/ output connector is set with the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu.

Notes

•One BKM-22X can be attached simultaneously with the BKM-20D or BKM-21D.

•The BKM-20D, BKM-21D and BKM-22X can not provide proper active-through outputs if a signal whose format is not selected in the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu is input. (If AUTO is selected, input a signal which has the same format with the signal monitored last.)

For information about the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu, see “ [C1] Setting the Input Configuration (SET UP 1)

— INPUT CONFIGURATION Menu” on page 35.

Priority of the decoder adaptors

When multiple decoder adaptors for NTSC or PAL format are installed, their priority is as in the following table.

Example: To monitor the composite NTSC signal when the BKM-24N and BKM-27T are installed, the input composite NTSC signal is always decoded by the BKM-24N.
