Chapter 1 Overview

Overview

Precautions

On Safety

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

• A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc., is located on the rear panel.

• 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

Chapter

• Leave more than 40 cm of space in the rear of the unit to secure the operation area.

When the unit is installed on the desk or the like, leave at least 1U (4.4 cm) or more of space above and below the unit. Leaving 40 cm or more of space above the unit is recommended for service operation.

Handling the Screen

• The OLED panel fitted to this unit is manufactured with high precision technology, giving a functioning pixel ratio of at least 99.99%. Thus a very small proportion of pixels may be “stuck”, either always off (black), always on (red, green, or blue), or flashing. In addition, over a long period of use, because of the physical characteristics of the panel, such “stuck” pixels may appear spontaneously. These problems are not a malfunction.

• Do not leave the screen facing the sun as it can damage the screen. Take care when you place the unit by a window.

• Do not push or scratch the monitor’s screen. Do not place a heavy object on the monitor’s screen. This may cause the screen to lose uniformity.

• The screen and the cabinet become warm during operation. This is not a malfunction.

• 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.

For BVM-E250A only

When installing the installation space must be secured in consideration of the ventilation and service operation.

• Do not block the ventilation slots, and vents of the fans.

• Leave a space around the unit for ventilation.

On Burn-in

Due to the characteristics of the material used in the OLED panel, permanent burn-in or reduction in brightness may occur. These problems are not a malfunction.

Images that may cause burn-in

• Masked images with aspect ratios other than 16:9

• Color bars or images that remain static for a long time

• Character or message displays that indicate settings or the operating state

• On-screen displays such as center markers or area markers

Precautions

Page 8

To reduce the risk of burn-in

• Turn off the character and marker displays Press the MENU button to turn off the character displays. To turn off the character or marker displays of the connected equipment, operate the connected equipment accordingly. For details, refer to the operation manual of

Chapter 1 Overview

the connected equipment.

• Turn off the power when not in use Turn off the power if the monitor is not to be used for a prolonged period of time.

Screen saver

This product has a built-in screen saver function to reduce burn-in. When an almost still image is displayed for more than 10 minutes, the screen saver starts automatically and the brightness of the screen decreases.

On a Long Period of Use

Due to an OLED’s panel structure and characteristics of materials in its design, displaying static images for extended periods, or using the unit repeatedly in a high temperature/high humidity environments may cause image smearing, burn-in, areas of which brightness is permanently changed, lines, or a decrease in overall brightness.

• Wipe the screen surface gently with the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft dry cloth to remove dirt.

• Stubborn stains may be removed with the supplied cleaning cloth, or a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution.

• The screen may become scratched if the cleaning cloth is dusty.

• Never use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzene, thinner, acidic or alkaline detergent, detergent with abrasives, or chemical wipe as these may damage the screen.

• Use a blower to remove dust from the screen surface.

On Dew Condensation

If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while condensation is present may damage the unit.

On Repacking

In particular, continued display of an image smaller than the monitor screen, such as in a different aspect ratio, may shorten the life of the unit. Avoid displaying a still image for an extended period, or using the unit repeatedly in a high temperature/high humidity environment such an airtight room, or around the outlet of an air conditioner.

To prevent any of the above issues, we recommend reducing brightness slightly, and to turn off the power whenever the unit is not in use.

Handling and Maintenance of the Screen

The surface of the screen is specially coated to reduce image reflection. Make sure to observe the following points as improper maintenance procedures may impair the screen’s performance. In addition, the screen is vulnerable to damage. Do not scratch or knock against it using a hard object.

• Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet before performing maintenance.

• The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not attach adhesive objects, such as stickers, on it.

• The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not touch the screen directly.

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container which to transport the unit.

Disposal of the Unit

Do not dispose of the unit with general waste. Do not include the monitor with household waste. When you dispose of the monitor, you must obey the law in the relative area or country.

On Fan Error

The fan for cooling the unit is built in. When the fan stops and the OPERATE lamp flashes in red, the OVER RANGE lamp flashes in amber, and the ECO lamp lights in magenta on the front panel for fan error indication, turn off the power and contact an authorized Sony dealer.

If you have any questions about this unit, please contact your Sony service representative.

Features

The BVM-E250A is 25-inch Professional Video Monitor, and the BVM-E170A is 16.5-inch Professional Video Monitor. These are suitable for television stations or video production houses, where precise image reproduction is required.

The monitor features OLED panel and “TRIMASTER which is a new technology developed for three elements, “accurate color reproduction”, “precision imaging” and “quality picture consistency,” that are in demand for professional use. “TRIMASTER” decreases the viewing difference that occurs due to the individuality of each panel. Also, the monitor realizes the high picture quality and high-trust required for the master monitor by the color management system with its wide color gamut device, high-resolution/precise gradation display, highly accurate signal processing and panel correction function.

1) TRIMASTER is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

Advantages of OLED panel technology

The OLED panel makes use of an organic material, which emits light when an electric current is applied. Being selfemitting, the strength of luminescence can be controlled by the amount of electric current. This brings about the following three features:

Quick motion picture response: The luminescent state of the OLED panel can be changed instantaneously by changing the current flow in the organic material. This enables a quick motion picture response and production of images with minimal blurring and ghosting. Furthermore, performance for shooting on location is not influenced by changes in environmental temperature.

”,

emission structure of TFT, Sony’s OLED panel can reproduce a crisper image due to high brightness. Furthermore, a unique microcavity structure makes RGB primary colors purer and deeper by utilizing light resonance effects that magnify optimum light wave lengths and diminish undesired light wave lengths. The panel’s 10-bit driver enables smooth gradation of color shading.

2) “Super Top Emission” is a trademark that represents the OLED technology of Sony Corporation.

12-bit precision display engine for professional use

The panel is equipped with a unique signal process engine developed for the professional use monitor. This engine incorporates 12-bit output accuracy at each process, and provides a high-quality I/P conversion algorithm, scaling processing, panel driving and a highly accurate color management system.

Multi color space

The Sony’s unique OLED panel with a wide color gamut and color management system which uses the unique 3D LUT (Look Up Table) reproduces the color space that complies with the broadcast standard ITU-R BT.709, EBU and SMPTE-C accurately. A wider color space

allows

digital cinema reproductions.

3) The RGB chromaticity of SMPTE RP 431-2 is not covered in full.

High-quality I/P conversion processing

A high-quality picture near the original one, in which jagged lines and conversion errors are decreased by detecting the feature of the picture inside the subdivided block and processing properly, is reproduced. The signal delay is decreased by judging the animation or still picture from the past video signal. Film cadence processing, which converts the signal composed of 2-2·23·2-3-3-2 pull down to the I/P signal closely following the original, is also selectable.

Chapter 1 Overview

High contrast and wide dynamic range: The OLED panel does not emit light when black signal is applied to the monitor, enabling a pure black screen to be displayed. Furthermore, thanks to a wide dynamic range the panel impressively displays brilliance and clarity of various sparkling images, such as stars in a night sky twinkling, night illuminations winking or glass glittering, etc.

Rich color reproduction: An OLED panel’s self-luminescence also allows for great color reproduction across the entire spectrum in practically any shade or brightness.

Sony’s Super Top Emission

OLED panel

The 25-type (BVM-E250A) or 16.5-type (BVM-E170A) full HD (1920 × 1080) OLED panel features Sony’s Super Top Emission structure. Unlike the conventional bottom

Interlace display mode

The interlace signal is displayed as the interlace picture by inserting the black line without I/P conversion processing. A picture faithful to the original signal and with the same feel as a CRT is gained.

For setting the display, see “Selecting Display Mode” on page 97.

Available to a multi signal format

The monitor supports various input signals such as 720 × 576/50i to 1920 × 1080/50P, 60P, digital cinema (D-Cine) 2048 × 1080/24P and variable computer signals up to 1920 × 1080. The 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs, HDMI DisplayPort

(HDCP correspondence) inputs, and four

and

option ports are equipped for the standard interface. If you install optional input adaptors, the monitor expands inputs of 3G-SDI, HD-SDI or SD-SDI, and supports Dual-link HD-SDI, RGB, YPbPr, Y/C, and composite signal inputs.

Scan selection/Native scan display function

You can select from under scan (–3%), normal scan (0%) and over scan (mask of the 5% over scan portion in the normal scan) for the picture display. The monitor is equipped with a native scan display function which maps the pixel of the signal to the panel in one-to-one mode. You can select the mode from ×1, ×2 or Aspect Correction to display a signal in native mode. An SD signal of non-square pixels (the number of H pixels of the signal system is 720 or 1440) or a 640 × 480 SD signal of HDMI/DisplayPort video is displayed correctly by scaling processing of doubling for the V direction and correct aspect ratio for the H direction, and the picture is also optimized and displayed by modifying the aperture coefficient value, filter coefficient value, etc. in Aspect Correction mode.

For the operation, see “Selecting the Native Scan/Scan Mode” on page 99.

Gamut error function

The signal outside the specified range (gamut error) caused by the conversion of the format or during CG/CM production is displayed in a zebra pattern.

Aspect selectable function

A squeezed and recorded signal is displayed with the correct angle. You can select from 4:3, 16:9, 1.896:1 and

Assigning the Input Signal to the Channel

Adjusting

When you assign the input signal to the channel, you can select the channel and change the input signal by pressing the numeric button. The input signal is assigned to one of channels 1 to 30.

Select the channel (CH1 to CH30) to be assigned by pressing the numeric button of the controller.

To assign to a channel number from 1 to 9, press the appropriate one-digit channel number on the numeric keypad. To assign to a channel number from 10 to 30, press the 0 button, then press the appropriate two-digit channel number.

Set the input signal for the selected channel in Channel Configuration menu (page 58).

The required setting is different due to the input signal or picture quality to be displayed.

Setting the Display Mode of the Picture

Set the display mode condition of the input signal to display on the screen. The setting items are following.

• Setting Matrix (transmission matrix)

• Selecting the color profile (color space and gamma)

Before adjusting

The monitor must be warmed up sufficiently. To perform stable color reproduction, turn on the power of the monitor, display the white signal and leave it in this state for more than 30 minutes.

About monitor adjustment

The monitor is used as a measuring instrument and is required to faithfully reproduce the input signal. To measure the signal accurately, the monitor must be calibrated correctly using a reference signal. To calibrate, adjust the following items in sequence.

1 Chroma/phase adjustment

You can save the adjustment value in Preset1 to Preset5 and Preset (D-Cine). The data of Preset1 to Preset5 or Preset (D-Cine) is set to the channel in the Picture Preset menu (page 61) of the Channel Configuration menu. Adjust the picture automatically with the auto chroma/ phase/matrix function for every signal format and signal system to display the composite signal or Y/C signal from the BKM-227W, or analog component signal or analog RGB signal from the BKM-229X. If the picture is not adjusted, the picture may not be displayed correctly.

2 Color Temperature (white balance) adjustment

You can adjust the data set to the channel in the Color Temp menu (page 60) of the Channel Configuration menu. You can adjust D93, D65, D61, D55, D-Cine or User1 to User5 except for the XYZ format signal and D-Cine XYZ or User XYZ1 to User XYZ5 for the XYZ format signal.

3 Brightness/Contrast adjustment

Chroma/Phase Adjustment

Chapter 2 Preparations

Set Matrix in the Matrix menu (page 61) of the Channel Configuration menu.

Automatic adjustment (with auto chroma/phase/matrix function) is required for each signal format, signal system and matrix to display the composite or Y/C signal from the BKM-227W, or the analog component or analog RGB signal from the BKM-229X. As you can automatically adjust the chroma, phase, matrix and also 100% (white) and 0% (black) levels of the monitor to the same as those of the reference signal by performing

Adjusting

Notes

• The gamut error display function is effective when the input signal is 3G/HD/SD SDI, HDMI, or DisplayPort (and the quantization range for the signal is Limit). It is effective regardless of the signal format, when Gamma is set to S-LOG Standard or S-LOG Full in the Color Profile menu.

• The gamut error display function does not work in the following cases:

- When the input signal has no sync signal

- When the internal signal is displayed

- When H Delay/V Delay is set to On

- When Side by Side, Wipe, Butterfly or Blending is set to On

• In under scan mode, each one line of the upper and lower lines of the video signal is also detected for gamut error display.

• The time code display, the closed caption display when the BKM-244CC is installed, and the embedded audio level display when the BKM-250TG is installed are also detected for gamut error display.

• In over scan mode, 5% mask portion is also detected for gamut error display. However, the zebra pattern is not displayed on 5% mask portion.

Operations

Selecting Display Mode

This monitor applies high-contrast to the picture and reproduces accurate color by displaying the interlace signal in progressive mode by the I/P conversion or the PsF·progressive signal in progressive mode without the I/P conversion. You can select interlace display mode according to the input signal or the object to evaluate the picture.

Interlace display mode: The picture is displayed in interlace mode without I/P conversion processing. The picture near the original quality of the input signal is monitored.

Notes

• When a 1080/24 signal is displayed in progressive mode, the frame rate for display is 72 display.

• When the input signal is 1080/24 and 1080I is set in the 1080I/PsF menu of the Channel Configuration menu, the frame rate for display is 48 Hz or 50 Hz.

• The luminance is reduced owing to the principle of operation in the interlace display mode. However, on this monitor the normal luminance is set by increasing the value of gain. For this reason, in the interlace display mode, the range of the contrast adjustment is different from the normal level, and the luminance may be reduced according to the setting of the contrast.

• The picture is not displayed in interlace mode in the following cases: – When Side by Side, Wipe, Butterfly or Blending is

set to On

– When Pixel Zoom is set to on

About the native scan mode

You can set the picture display type for the native scan mode according to the input signal. You can select ×1 or ×2, which differ in picture display size, to map the pixels of the signal to the panel in one-toone mode, or Aspect Correction. An SD signal of nonsquare pixels (the number of H pixels of the signal system is 720 or 1440) or a 640 × 480 SD signal of HDMI/DisplayPort video is displayed correctly by scaling processing of doubling for the V direction and correct aspect ratio for the H direction, and the picture is also optimized and displayed by modifying the aperture coefficient value, filter coefficient value, etc. in Aspect
