-You may notice tiny red, blue, or green spots on the panel. This is a characteristic of LCD panels and isn't indicative of a problem. The high-
precision panel has at least 99.99% effective image pixels, but on .01% of the panel there may be missing or constantly lit pixels.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Your monitor comes supplied with an AC/DC power adapter. Depending on the
accessories you purchase, you can power and use the monitor in a variety of ways. USING A POWER
SOURCE NOT SUPPLIED BY VARIZOOM COULD LEAD TO MALFUNCTION OR DAMAGE NOT COVERED
BY YOUR WARRANTY. IF YOU PLAN TO USE A POWER SOURCE FROM ANOTHER MANUFACTURER,
MAKE SURE THE VOLTAGE AND POLARITY ARE CORRECT TO PREVENT DAMAGE.
1. You must connect the RCA video cable (from your camera) and the
DC power source connector to the molded connector housing attached
to the back of the monitor. Plug the RCA video cable into the
outermost RCA connector (A) and the power source connector into the
DC jack (B). Notes: Many pro cameras have BNC video out instead of
RCA. RCA/BNC adapters are available at most video supply stores.
The middle RCA connector is not active on the 7" monitor.
2. Turn on the POWER and see if the image from your camera appears onscreen. Depending
on your camera's aspect ratio capabilities, you may want to change the SCREEN MODE
(button "S"). Pressing the S button will cycle the monitor through its various display modes
(Normal, Wide).
If shooting in 4:3 mode, select Normal to display the image in its natural 4:3 aspect ratio
-
with black bars along the sides.
If you are shooting in 4:3 mode, but you wish to use the full screen, select Full, and the
-
image will be stretched horizontally to fill the screen. Full mode will stretch the image
evenly across the whole screen.
- If shooting in 16:9 mode, select Full to display the image in its natural 16:9 aspect ratio
