Precaution

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.

Features

Picture

HR (High Resolution) Trinitron 1) picture tube for PVM-14M4U/14M4E/14M4A/20M4U/20M4E/20M4A

HR Trinitron tube provides a high resolution picture. Horizontal resolution is more than 800 TV lines at the center of the picture.

Trinitron1) picture tube

for PVM-14M2U/14M2E/14M2A/20M2U/20M2E

Trinitron tube provides a high resolution picture. Horizontal resolution is more than 600 TV lines at the center of the picture.

Comb filter

When NTSC video signals are received, a comb filter activates to make more accurate Y/C separation. This contributes to less of a decrease in resolution, cross color and cross luminance phenomena.

Beam current feedback circuit

The built-in beam current feedback circuit assures stable white balance.

Four color system available

The monitor can display NTSC, PAL, SECAM and NTSC4.432) signals. The appropriate color system is selected automatically.

Blue only mode

In the blue only mode, an apparent monochrome display is obtained with all three cathodes driven with a blue signal. This facilitates color saturation and phase adjustments and observation of VCR noise.

Input

Analog RGB/component input connectors

Analog RGB or component (Y, R-Y and B-Y) signals from video equipment can be input through these connectors.

Y/C input connectors

The video signal, split into the chrominance signal (C) and the luminance signal (Y), can be input through this connector, eliminating the interference between the two signals, which tends to occur in a composite video signal, ensuring video quality.

External sync input

When the EXT SYNC selector is in the on position, the monitor can be operated on the sync signal supplied from an external sync generator.

Automatic termination (connector with mark only)

The input connector is terminated at 75 ohms inside when no cable is connected to the loop-through output connector. When a cable is connected to an output connector, the 75-ohm termination is automatically released.

.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

2)The NTSC4.43 system refers to an NTSC color system in which the subcarrier frequency is modified to 4.43MHz. When an NTSC recorded video program is played back with a Trident (PAL/SECAM/NTSC4.43) VTR, the NTSC4.43 signal is output.

Functions

Underscan mode

The signal normally scanned outside of the screen can be monitored in the underscan mode.

Note

When the monitor is in the underscan mode, the dark RGB scanning lines may appear on the top edge of the screen. These are caused by an internal test signal, rather than the input signal.

Horizontal/vertical delay mode

The horizontal and vertical sync signals can be checked simultaneously in the H/V delay mode.

Auto/manual degaussing

Degaussing of the screen can be performed automatically when the power is turned on, or manually by pressing the DEGAUSS button.

You can set the delay time of auto degaussing to start working after the power is turned on. (DEGAUSS DELAY menu)

On-screen menus

You can set color temperature, CHROMA SET UP, and other settings by using the on-screen menus.

Five menu languages

You can select the menu language from among five languages on the menu.

SDI (Serial Digital Interface) Kit

By using the following optional SDI Kits, the monitor can display SMPTE 259M 4:2:2 serial digital signal from a digital VCR. (ex. Sony 4:2:2 VCR)

–BKM-101C: Component SDI Kit (for video)

–BKM-102: Component SDI Kit (for audio)

Note

When the serial number of the BKM-101C you want to connect is less than 2,010,000, an optional connecting harness (part no. 1-900-230-35) will be required.

Serial Remote Interface Kit

By using the optional BKM-103 Serial Remote Interface Kit, the monitor can be controlled from personal computers via the RS-422A serial interface.

EIA 19-inch rack mount kit available

Use a suitable kit when rack mounting.

Europe	MB-502C (14-inches) /
	SLR-103C (20-inches)
Any other area	MB-502B (14-inches) /
	SLR-103A (20-inches)

ATTENTION – When the product is installed in

arack:

a)Elevated operating ambient temperature

If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (Tmra).

b)Reduced air flow

Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

c)Mechanical loading

Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

d)Circuit overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

e)Reliable earthing

Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
