Features
The BKM-16R is a control unit for the BVM/PVM series
business & professional video monitor. Use it to power
monitors on and set in standby mode, perform menu
operations, and carry out monitor setup and adjustment.
For monitors connectable to this unit and usable functions,
see page 5.
Remote control function (Ethernet control)
The unit controls up to 32 monitors by the Ethernet
(10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) connection. Up to four units
are connected to one monitor in single mode. You can
control individual monitors or monitor groups simply by
entering the monitor ID number or group ID number. You
can also execute the same operation on all connected
monitors, or put all connected monitors into the same setup
and adjustment state.
Setup and adjustment with the “Memory Stick”
You can use a “Memory Stick” to save and load monitor
setup and adjustment data. If your system includes more
than one monitor, you can use the “Memory Stick” to
exchange data between monitors. This makes it easy to put
all monitors in your system into the same setup and
adjustment state.
This function is available for BVM series monitors (except
BVM-A series) and PVM-L series monitors.
Rack mounting
You can mount the unit in an EIA standard 19-inch rack
with the supplied rack mount brackets and screws.
Assignable function key
Other functions are assigned to the F1 to F16 buttons in the
Controller menu of the monitor.
This function is available for BVM series monitors (except

10 Inserting/Ejecting the “Memory Stick”
Inserting/Ejecting the
“Memory Stick”
This product has a slot that can take both standard size and
Duo size. All products with a slot such as this are equipped
with a system which automatically measures the size of an
inserted medium. For this reason, both the standard-size
“Memory Stick”/“Memory Stick PRO” and smaller
“Memory Stick Duo”/“Memory Stick PRO Duo” can be
used with this product without a Memory Stick Duo
adaptor.
When an M2 adaptor is attached, you can use a “Memory
Stick Micro” (“M2”)1).
Proceed as illustrated to insert and eject an optional
“Memory Stick”.
See each menu of the monitor for information about
operations on “Memory Stick” data.
1) “M2” is an abbreviation for “Memory Stick Micro”.
Do not eject the “Memory Stick” while data is being saved
or loaded.
To insert the “Memory Stick”
• “Memory Stick Duo”/“Memory Stick PRO Duo” can be
used without a Memory Stick Duo adaptor.
• When you use a “Memory Stick Micro”, do so after
attaching the M2 adaptor (optional).
• When the “Memory Stick Micro” is inserted without the
M2 adaptor, the “Memory Stick Micro” may not be
removed from the unit.
• Be sure to insert the “Memory Stick” in the correct
direction. Forcing the “Memory Stick” in the wrong way
may damage it.
• Insert only the “Memory Stick” into the Memory Stick
insertion slot. Attempting to insert other objects into the
Memory Stick insertion slot may damage the product.
To eject the “Memory Stick”
