Professional LCD Monitor

LMD-1751W

Inheriting the vital functions and performance of Sony’s highly acclaimed LUMA Series professional monitors, the LMD-1751W is the latest enhancement to this series, an outstanding new high-grade LCD video monitor.

The LMD-1751W is a 17-inch (431 mm)* wide viewing angle LCD panel, high-purity color ﬁ lters, sophisticated 10-bit signal processing, and Sony’s unique ChromaTRU*

color matching technology. With these qualities, the LMD-1751W delivers precise images and accurate color reproduction for professional video monitoring. Added to this, a newly supported white balance calibration function*

Another advantage of the LMD-1751W is its 3G-SDI interface. Using an optional 3G-SDI input adaptor, the BKM-250TG, Y/Cb/Cr 4:2:2, 1080/50P, and 1080/60P signals are accepted with a single cable.

With the strength of Sony’s video expertise, the LMD-1751W is sure to meet a wide variety of picture monitoring applications from broadcast and post-production to event production and mobile truck installations, in both AC and DC operating environments.

High Purity Color Filters

The LMD-1751W uses precisely manufactured RGB color ﬁ lters, allowing the reproduction of colors with stunning depth and saturation to create highly natural images.

Accurate Gamma and Stable White Balance – ChromaTRU™ Color Processing

For an extra level of color-reproduction accuracy, every LCD panel used in the LMD-1751W is precisely color calibrated at the factory, providing characteristics consistent with those of CRT displays. The colorimetry of an LCD display, by nature, can exhibit inaccurate R, G, B color coordinates and unbalanced R, G, B gamma curves, which can make precise color matching between multiple monitors a challenge. These are also the primary reasons why LCD color tone can differ slightly from CRT tone. The LMD-1751W solves this problem by precisely calibrating each LCD panel’s light output so that the R, G, B color coordinates are virtually the same as those of a CRT monitor. A second calibration is further applied so that white balance is maintained at a consistent color temperature throughout all grayscale levels. The result of these precise calibrations is excellent color reproduction reminiscent of Sony’s CRT displays.

Picture Delay Minimum Mode

Audio is just as much a part of the show as video, and timing is always an issue. Picture Delay Minimum mode is selectable to minimize I/P conversion times for audio synchronization during editing. By selecting “LINE DOUBLER” under “IP MODE”, the signal processing (I/P conversion) period is less than one ﬁ eld (0.5 frame).

Extremely Wide Viewing Angle

The LMD-1751W offers stable images when viewed from various angles. It delivers wide viewing angles both horizontally and vertically, with virtually no reduction in picture contrast, color saturation, or hue shift. This allows precise images to be clearly viewed from various positions and angles – a critical requirement in professional video monitoring.

White Balance Calibration Function

High-grade LUMA monitors are adjusted at the factory to achieve optimized color, brightness, and gamma prior to shipment. LCD monitor performance, however, typically changes over time and requires regular recalibration to maintain its original performance. The LMD-1751W employs a software-based white balance calibration function, which is called AutoWhiteBalance. Combined with a commercially available calibration tool*, this function enables simple adjustment of the monitor’s white balance.

* The X-Rite Eye-one (i1) Series.

Sophisticated I/P Conversion

The LMD-1751W uses a motion-adaptive I/P-conversion process to achieve conversion results that are optimized to the picture content – whether the image is static or dynamic. Highly accurate I/P conversion is provided regardless of signal resolution including both HD and SD inputs.

In addition, the LMD-2451W can be upgraded to support white balance calibration.

■■ Input Versatility

■■ External Remote Control Function

Multi-format Signal Support – Up to 3G-SDI Input

The LMD-1751W accepts almost any SD or HD video format, both analog and digital: NTSC and PAL, component 480/60i and 575/50i, progressive 480/60P and 576/50P, and highdeﬁ nition 1080/60i, 1080/50i, 720/60P, 1080/24P, 1080/25P, 1080/30P, 1080/24PsF, and 1080/25PsF. It also accepts 1080/50P and 1080/60P formats from a 3G-SDI input. In addition to the standard interfaces that cover composite, Y/C, RGB, and component, there are two optional input slots. Input connector conﬁ guration can be easily modiﬁ ed by installing optional input adaptors into these slots. Analog and digital computer signals via the standard HD-15 and DVI-D*1 interfaces are also supported.

*1 Both 1080/50P and 1080/60P

signals are accepted. The images are down-converted for display on the LMD-1751W.

■■ Convenient Installation

Mounting Flexibility

Mountable in a 19-inch EIA Standard Rack

The LMD-1751W (7U high) can be rack mounted using an optional MB-530 Mounting Bracket. Complying with VESA standards, LMD-1751W monitors can be easily mounted on walls and ceilings.

The LMD-1751W has an external remote control capability for input/output signal selection and adjustment of various items via Ethernet (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) connection. Up to 32 monitors and up to four control units can be connected via Ethernet (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) connection and controlled remotely on the network. The user can control individual monitors or monitor groups simply by entering the monitor ID or group ID number. They can also execute the same operation on all connected monitors, or put all connected monitors into the same setup and adjustment state.

■■ Power-saving Mode

In Power-saving mode, when no input signal is received for over a minute, the monitor goes into Standby mode and consumes minimal power. This function prevents unnecessary electrical consumption.
