1-1. Outline
These professional 15-inch and 19-inch multi-
format color monitors have been designed, taking into
consideration compatibility with all HDTV formats as
well as the combined use of HDTV and SDTV formats
and also active use in various spaces such as sub-control
r o o m s ( e d i t i n g c o n s o l e s , m o n i t o r r a c k s a n d
transmission control desks) and outside broadcast vans.
The SDI module supports multi-format inputs.
Optional modules supporting embedded audio are also
available. Embedded audio incorporates versatile
functions such as analog or AES/EBU digital outputs
and audio level meter display, making the monitors
space-saving due to their capability of simultaneous
video and audio monitoring with a single unit.
The basic performance of the HTM-1517R remains
the same. Compared with rack-mounted type, the
space-saving HTM-1517CS does without the front
panel, by which lots of monitors can be laid out flexibly.
All controls and adjustments are remotely made (wired
or wireless).
Compliant with the latest RoHS that is a safety
directive for green products, these monitors are eco-
friendly and human-friendly.

Multi-format SDI
The DKM-511B multi-format SDI module, which
comes standard with the monitor, is capable of
accepting both HD-SDI and SD-SDI (4:2:2) signals in
the same input terminal. Other optional modules
supporting embedded audio are also available.
HD-SDI and SD-SDI (4:2:2) signals received in this
module are automatically identified by the monitor and
displayed in appropriate format.

Compatibility with embedded audio output
Equipped with demultiplexer circuit, the optional
multi-format SDI module (AV or AVD type), which sup-
ports embedded audio output, extract and output the
audio signal multiplexed with HD-SDI signal or SD-
SDI (4:2:2) signal.
The module is available in two types in terms of its
audio output, AV type producing 2-channel analog out-
put (output channel to be set in MENU) and AVD type
producing AES/EBU digital 8-channel output.
Embedded audio level meter
DAM-504 and DAM-508 (optional) are the audio level
meters that work with the embedded audio to moni-
tor 4-channel or 8-channel audio signal multiplexed
with SDI signal.
Easily visible LED meter installed in the escutch-
eon will not obstruct video monitoring. Integrated
with the monitor, the meter requires no extra space.
Various Remote control functions
The monitor can be remote-controlled with the use
of three remote control functions. Depending on the
place of installation and type of operation, a parallel,
infrared, or serial remote controller can be used.
In addition to the conventional parallel remote con-
trol, the monitor also comes equipped as standard with
serial remote input interface which enables remote
control with just one BNC coaxial cable.
By connecting various monitors (17/18/20/30/80/90/
HTM/HLM series monitors) by the loop-through
method, up to 99 monitors can be remote-controlled
individually, using the optional remote controller SRC-
301Z.
The infrared wireless remote controller RCT-30A is
also available as an option.
Digital control
Digital data is processed in 10-bit. The rotary en-
coder enables easy adjustment and changes to the
data.
The screen size and position, as well as, side pin
compensation can also be controlled remotely, thus al-
lowing flexible compatibility with various signal for-
mats.
Memory of 4 different of color temperatures
As the monitor is able to memorize other color tem-
peratures in addition to the D93/D65 color tempera-
tures set as default, the optimum white balance can
be set promptly, as well as, easily according to the in-
put image conditions and purpose of use.
