Setup and adjustment with the Monitor
Memory Card
You can use an optional BKM-12Y Monitor Memory
Card to save and load monitor setup and adjustment
data. If your system includes more than one monitor,
you can use the monitor memory cards to exchange
data between monitors. This makes it easy to put all
monitors in your system into the same setup and
adjustment state.
Standard auto alignment system
Decoder chroma and phase adjustment, as well as
color temperature control, may be performed with the
auto alignment system. This makes it possible to
coordinate settings among multiple monitors.
Expandable input capability
The input connector configuration may be easily
modified by simply sliding optional decoder adaptor or
the input expansion adaptor into input option slot at the
rear of the monitor.
4:3/16:9 dual aspect ratio design
This monitor can be changed to either 4:3 or 16:9
aspect ratio with just a simple switching operation. The
screen can be also changed to 4:3 or 16:9 display by
the replacement of a mask (no tools required).
Stable color temperature
The internal beam current feedback circuit maintains a
constant color temperature over long periods of time.
Blue-only mode convenient for monitoring
noise
All three CRT cathodes can be driven with a blue
signal, producing a monochrome display. This mode
is convenient for chroma and phase adjustment, and
for monitoring VTR noise.
Menu operation
The monitor's various functions and operating
conditions can be set with on-screen menus.
