Picture
Trinitron1) wide picture tube
Trinitron wide picture tube realizes comfortable 16:9
picture viewing, and can also provide 4:3 pictures by
switching the selector.
Digital Comb filter
When NTSC and PAL video signals are received, a
digital 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.
Features
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.
.......................................................................................................................................................................................
1) “Trinitron” is a registered trademark of Sony Corporation.
2) The NTSC4.43 system refers to an NTSC color system in which the subcarrier frequency is modified to 4.43 MHz.
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.
On-screen menus
You can set color temperature, CHROMA SET UP,
and other settings by using the on-screen menus.
Caption vision decoder (Only for PVM-

signals, captions can be superimposed on the monitor
screen. You can select the caption type or switch off
the caption vision, 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 SLR-103C
Any other area SLR-103A
ATTENTION – When the product is installed in
a rack:
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).

Précautions
Sécurité
•Faites uniquement fonctionner le moniteur sur l’une
des sources d’alimentation désignées dans les
“Spécifications”.
•La plaquette signalétique indiquant la tension de
service, la consommation électrique, etc., se trouve à
l’arrière de l’appareil.
•Si un liquide ou un objet pénètre àl’intérieur du
châssis, débranchez le moniteur et faites-le contrôler
par un personnel qualifiéavant de le remettre en
service.
•Ne laissez pas tomber le cordon d’alimentation et ne
posez pas d’objets lourds dessus. Si le cordon
d’alimentation est endommagé, mettez
immédiatement le moniteur hors tension. Il est
dangereux de faire fonctionner cet appareil avec un
cordon endommagé.
•Débranchez l’appareil de la prise murale si vous
prévoyez de ne pas l’utiliser pendant quelques jours
ou plus.
•Pour débrancher le cordon, tirez-le par la fiche. Ne
tirez jamais sur le cordon proprement dit.
•La prise d’alimentation doit se trouver àproximité
du moniteur et être aisément accessible.
Installation
•Veillez àassurer une circulation d’air suffisante pour
éviter toute surchauffe àl’intérieur de l’appareil.
Ne placez pas l’appareil sur des surfaces textiles
(tapis, couvertures, etc.) ni àproximitéde rideaux ou
de tentures susceptibles d’obstruer les orifices de
ventilation.
•N’installez pas l’appareil àproximitéde sources de
chaleur comme un radiateur ou une bouche d’air
chaud, ni dans un endroit exposéau rayonnement
solaire direct, àdes poussières excessives, àdes
vibrations ou àdes chocs mécaniques.
Entretien
Pour que le moniteur garde l’aspect du neuf, nettoyez-
le régulièrement àl’aide d’une solution détergente
neutre. N’utilisez jamais de solvants puissants tels que
du diluant ou du benzène, qui risquent d’altérer le fini
du châssis. Par mesure de précaution, débranchez le
moniteur avant de le nettoyer.

Image
Tube image 16:9e Trinitron1)
Le tube Trinitron permet la visualisation d’images en
format 16:9e dans d’excellentes conditions de confort,
mais également d’images en 4:3 par une simple
commutation du sélecteur.
Filtre en peigne numérique
Lors de la réception de signaux vidéo NTSC et PAL,
un filtre en peigne numérique est activéde façon à
assurer une séparation plus précise des signaux Y/C. Il
contribue ainsi àréduire la perte de définition ainsi que
les phénomènes de couleur et de luminance croisées.
Circuit de retour du courant de faisceau
Le circuit de retour du courant de faisceau intégré
assure la stabilitéde la balance des blancs.
Quatre systèmes couleur
Le moniteur peut afficher des signaux NTSC, PAL,
SECAM et NTSC4,432). Le système couleur approprié
est sélectionnéautomatiquement.
Mode d’affichage en bleu uniquement
En mode d’affichage bleu, l’affichage est
apparemment monochrome, les trois cathodes étant
entraînées par un signal bleu. Cela facilite le réglage
de saturation de la couleur, le réglage de phase et
l’observation des interférences en provenance du
magnétoscope.
Caractéristiques
Entrée
Connecteurs d’entrée RVB analogique/
composante
Les signaux RVB analogiques et composante (Y, R-Y
et B-Y) d’un appareil vidéo peuvent être reçus via ces
connecteurs.
Connecteurs d’entrée Y/C
Le signal vidéo, séparéen un signal de chrominance
(C) et un signal de luminance (Y), peut être transmis
par ce connecteur, éliminant ainsi les interférences
entre les deux signaux qui ont tendance àse produire
dans un signal vidéo composite. La qualitévidéo s’en
trouve ainsi garantie.
Entrée de synchronisation externe
Lorsque le sélecteur EXT SYNC est en position ON, le
moniteur peut fonctionner sur le signal de
synchronisation fourni depuis un générateur de
synchronisation externe.
Terminaison automatique
(connecteur avec identification
uniquement)
Le connecteur d’entrée est terminéà75 ohms à
l’intérieur si aucun câble n’est raccordéaux
connecteurs de sortie en boucle directe. Si un câble est
raccordéàun connecteur de sortie, la terminaison à75
ohms est automatiquement désactivée.
