About this manual
Before operating the unit, please read this manual
thoroughly and retain it for future reference.
The explanation given in this manual can be applied to
the following models unless noted otherwise.
When explanation differs among models, this is clearly
indicated in this manual.
¢ PVM-14M4U/14M4E (14-inch monitor)
¢ PVM-14M2U/14M2E (14-inch monitor)
°¢ PVM-20M4U/20M4E (20-inch monitor)

VAAL
Picture
HR (High Resolution) Trinitron ” picture tube
for PVM-14M4U/14M4E/20M4U/20M4E
HR Trinitron tube provides a high resolution picture.
Horizontal resolution is more than 800 TV lines at the
center of the picture.
Trinitron” picture tube
for PVM-14M2U/14M2E/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
NTSC..3” 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.
1) “Trinitron” is a registered trademark of Sony Corporation.
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 NTSC43 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/NTSC.43) VTR, the NTSC..3 signal is
output.

Functions
Underscan mode
The signal normally scanned outside of the screen can
be monitored in the underscan mode.
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.
Five menu languages
You can select the menu language from among five
languages on the menu.
