• 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.

Chapter

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 liquid crystal display, such “stuck” pixels may appear spontaneously. These problems are not a malfunction.

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

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

• If the unit is used in a cold place, horizontal lines or a residual image may appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction. When the monitor becomes warm, the screen returns to normal.

• If a fixed picture such as a frame of a divided picture or time code, or a still picture is displayed for a long time, an image may remain on the screen and be superimposed as a ghosting image.

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

On Cleaning

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.

Handling the LCD Screen

• The LCD 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

Before cleaning

Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.

On cleaning the monitor screen

The monitor screen surface is especially treated to reduce reflection of light. As incorrect maintenance may impair the performance of the monitor, take care with respect to the following:

• Wipe the screen gently with a soft cloth such as a cleaning cloth or glass cleaning cloth. If you wipe the screen using too much force, the screen surface may lose uniformity or the LCD panel may malfunction. Never use tissue as it may scar the surface of the screen.

• Stubborn stains may be removed with a soft cloth such as a cleaning cloth or glass cleaning cloth lightly dampened with water.

Precautions

Page 8

• Never use solvent such as alcohol, benzene or thinner, or acid, alkaline or abrasive detergent, or chemical cleaning cloth, as they will damage the screen surface.

Features

On cleaning the cabinet

• Clean the cabinet gently with a soft dry cloth. Stubborn

Chapter 1 Overview

stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution, followed by wiping with a soft dry cloth.

• Use of alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide may damage the finish of the cabinet or remove the indications on the cabinet. Do not use these chemicals.

• If you rub on the cabinet with a stained cloth, the cabinet may be scratched.

• If the cabinet is in contact with a rubber or vinyl resin product for a long period of time, the finish of the cabinet may deteriorate or the coating may come off.

On Repacking

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

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 the space around the monitor (1U or more space above and below the monitor), and install a ventilation fan or take other effective countermeasures so that the temperature around the monitor is within the specified range: operating temperature range of 0 to 35 °C (32 to 95°F).

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

The BVM-L231 is 23-inch LCD Video Monitor. This is suitable for television stations or video production houses, where precise image reproduction is required.

The BVM-L231 features flat 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 BVM-L231 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, animation improvement technology and signal processing of high accuracy/calibration/feedback system.

* TRIMASTER is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

23-inch LCD panel developed for the BVM-L231

The 23-inch (22.5 inch) LCD panel was developed for the BVM-L231 and supports the full HD signal. It offers a 10-bit driver, high-speed response, high resolution and high color gradation.

Backlight system by LED with high-purity technology

High-purity LEDs enable the wider color space. The precision backlight system also incorporates a uniformity control function and a color feedback system.

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

A backlight system with high-precision technology 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.

* 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.

Features

Page 9

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.

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 88.

Black frame insertion display mode

Monitor blur caused by the holding-type display of the LCD is decreased by blinking the backlight in synchronization with the LCD display frame in double frame rate (100/120Hz) operation of the LCD panel.

For setting the display, see “Selecting Display Mode” on page 88.

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 WUXGA (1920 × 1200). A DVI-D (HDCP correspondence), HDMI* (HDCP correspondence) and four option slots are equipped as the interface and the monitor supports HD-SDI, Dual-link HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, SD-SDI, RGB, YPbPr, Y/C and composite signal input.

* HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia

Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing LLC.

HD frame capture function

The frame of the 3G/HD-SDI input signal is captured and saved as a picture file in the “Memory Stick”. This is used to confirm the color tone and picture angle of the current scene and recorded scene by using the multi display (Picture&Picture) function.

* As the frame of the input signal is captured, the data and

marker set by the monitor is not reflected.

For the operation, see “Capturing the Picture of the HD Signal (HD Frame Capture)” on page 94.

Pixel zoom function

As part of the picture is magnified up to 8 times without scaling processing, this is convenient for confirming a minute part of the signal.

For the operation, see “Magnifying the Picture (Pixel Zoom)” on page 92.

Safe area marker and aspect marker functions

The monitor is equipped with two area markers and center marker as the safe area marker and aspect marker for confirming the picture angle.

For the operation, see “Displaying the Area Marker or Aspect Marker” on page 95.

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 DVI video/HDMI 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 90.

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.

Black detail mode display function

You can reduce to dull black color by backlight leaking and precisely assess any parts with low color gradation. You can decrease the black level up to 40% of the normal display (100 cd/m

at 100% signal). The parts with high color gradation (higher than 75 IRE) are clipped by the dynamic range of the circuit, but a zebra pattern (selectable) is displayed in the clipped portions.

Chapter 1 Overview

Multi display function

Two kinds of input signals are output on the monitor. You can select from side by side, wipe, butterfly and blending mode. This is useful for adjusting the color or comparing two pictures.

For the operation, see “Displaying Two Signals on One Screen (Picture&Picture)” on page 91.

For the operation, see “Displaying the Picture in Black Detail Mode” on page 93.

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

2.39:1* aspect modes.

Features

Environments of the Installation Location

Chapter 2 Preparations

Illumination environments

The apparent color reproduction on the monitor is greatly affected by ambient light or glare. The LCD device controls the brightness by moving LCD molecules with the backlight always lit. For this reason, in a dark place, an LCD monitor screen shows very dim light leaks from the black image. We recommend that you adjust the ambient light and use in an environment that does not degrade the reproduction of black.

Viewing angle

The ideal viewing angle is within 5 degrees (up/down/left/ right) off the center of the monitor screen when the operator views the entire monitor screen. Keep the viewing angle within 15 degrees off the center of the monitor screen.

Adjusting

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 53) of the Input 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 53) of the Input Configuration menu. You can adjust D93, D65, D61, D56, 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

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

Chapter 4 Operations

I/P conversion. You can select following mode according to the input signal or the object to evaluate the picture.

• Black frame insertion display mode: A backlight blinks in synchronization with the signal displayed on the LCD. It is convenient to confirm the picture with multi-action scenes or roll telop as the motion blur caused by the holding-type display of the LCD is decreased.

• 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

• The luminance is reduced due to the principle of operation in the black frame insertion mode and the interlace display mode. However, on this monitor the normal luminance is set by setting up the value of the backlight luminance. For this reason, the black level is set higher than the normal setting level and the range of the contrast adjustment (backlight adjustment) is different from the normal level, and the luminance may be reduced according to the setting of the contrast.

• You cannot use both the black frame insertion display mode and interlace display mode. When the interlace display is set to on, the black frame insertion display is not set to on.

• The black frame is not inserted in the following cases: – When Interlace is set to On – When the 24P or 24PsF input signal is displayed – When Format of the Input Configuration menu is set

to DVI Computer

– When the HDMI computer signal is input

• The picture is not displayed in interlace mode in the following cases: – When Side by Side is set to On

Chapter

– When Wipe is set to On – When Butterfly is set to On – When 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 DVI video/HDMI 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 details, see “Picture Display Size” on page 115. Set the native scan mode in the Native Scan Mode menu (page 60) of the Display Setting menu.

Note

The native scan is not selectable in the following cases:
