Monitor Function; Level Control; Four Destination Control - Sony BKS-R1617 Operation Manual

Overview

Monitor Function

When the destination to be monitored has been
specified on the terminal, the monitor display panel
automatically selects the source for that destination
when the monitor function is ON.
With the conventional system, the monitor signal is
returned to the input, as shown below, to monitor the
destination.
Conventional monitor system
Such a process is not required for the monitor function,
which uses no extra crosspoint, and eliminates signal
delay in loopback.
An offset can be added to the automatically selected
source, which provides various monitoring
possibilities (c.g. monitoring an HD source with D1)
