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.

Multi color space
A 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.
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.
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.

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/

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. The data of Preset1 to Preset5 is set to the
channel in the Picture Preset menu (page 50) 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 50) of the Input Configuration
menu.
You can adjust D93, D65 or User1 to User5.
3 Brightness/Contrast adjustment
You can save the adjustment value in Preset1 to
Preset5. The data of Preset1 to Preset5 is set to the
channel in the Picture Preset menu (page 50) of the
Input Configuration menu.
28
Chroma/Phase Adjustment
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
the automatic adjustment, the automatic adjustment is also
effective for the RGB signal.
Perform the manual adjustment of chroma and phase to
adjust them further after automatic adjustment or the
digital signal from the BKM-220D, BKM-243HS or BKM244CC.

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 following mode according to the input
signal or the object to evaluate the picture.
• Black frame insertion display mode: A black frame is
inserted between the picture frames. 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

Insertion
Chapter 4 Operations
• 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
