How to Use the External Control
7About the external control
The monitor has the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal, which allows you to control the monitor by the MAKE (make contact)
or TRIG. (trigger) system.
MAKE (make contact) system: Controls the function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the
GND pin terminal, or disconnecting (opening) it.
TRIG. (trigger) system: Controls the function by inputting the pulse signal instantaneously to the
corresponding pin terminal.
* Select “MAKE” or “TRIG.” from “SYSTEM” in the “REMOTE SETTING.”
☞“REMOTE SETTING” on page 16
NOTE:
• When using the make contact system, you cannot use the buttons on the front panel to utilize functions which are controlled
through the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal. (When using the trigger system, you can also use those functions using the buttons on
the front panel or the menu.)
• When using the make contact system, you cannot change the inputs using the buttons on the front panel.

*1 The TRIG. (trigger) system switches each function by short-circuiting for approx. 1 second.
*2 Tally lamp (the 1st pin terminal) must be controlled by the MAKE (make contact) system. You can control the tally
lamp even when the external control (the 7th pin terminal) is invalid.
*3 External control (the 7th pin terminal) must be controlled by the MAKE (make contact) system.
Operation
1. Short-circuit the 7th pin terminal (External control) to the 8th pin terminal (GND) so that the monitor can be
controlled externally.
2. When selecting the “MAKE” (make contact) system, operate each function by short-circuiting the
corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) or opening it.
When selecting the “TRIG.” (trigger) system, operate each function by pulse control, that is short-circuiting the
corresponding pin terminal to the 8th pin terminal (GND) for about 1 second.
NOTE:
• When controlling No. 3 and 4 pin terminals by the MAKE (make contact) system, only the terminal in use must be short-
circuited. (Another terminal must be opened.)
• When selecting the “TRIG.” (trigger) system, you can operate only one function at a time. Operate the functions one by one.
This is a female
terminal.

The following are not malfunctions:
• When a still image is displayed for a long time, it may remains on the screen after the picture changes. This is
due to the characteristics of the LCD display and is not malfunction. The remaining picture will disappear after
a while.
• The red spots, blue spots and green spots on the panel surface are a normal characteristic of LCD displays,
and not a problem. The LCD display is built with very high precision technology, however, be aware that a few
pixels may be missing or constantly lit.
The following symptoms are problems only when pictures or sounds are not played back normally:
• A slight electric shock occurs when you touch the monitor.
• The top and/or rear panel of the monitor becomes hot.
• The monitor emits a cracking noise.
• The monitor emits a mechanical noise.
