Appendix Sony Display Memory System The CPD-1730 incorporates the Sony Display Memory System (SDMS) that allows it to discriminate between the types of input signals and to automatically display the optimum picture. The SDMS has a large-capacity non-volatile memory in which the display conditions for each input signal is stored. When the signal is input, the corresponding display conditions are called back from the memory and the unit is automatically adjusted for the signal. It also has a video muting function. The function eliminates display distortions that may occur when the input video signal is changed. Detailed explanation of the SDMS memory and the muting function are given below. The SDMS memory There are two types of memory: factory-preset memory and user memory. Factory-preset memory As explained in "Preset Mode" on page 7, optimum display conditions for the 9 preset-type models (see the chart to the right) are stored the memory area at the factory. No manual adjustment is necessary for these preset-type models. However, the contents in this memory area can be modified by users. If you modify conditions while the signals are input from a preset-type model, the newly set conditions will be stored in this memory area. Priority is given to the modified conditions. User memory The manual adjustments and modifications of an existing condition you make and the conditions of unique video signals are stored in this memory area. They are stored together with the type of the input signal and called back from the memory when the signal is input again. If you modify the condition already stored in the user memory, only the corresponding values are changed. The modified condition is not newly added to the memory. 1 MCGA 2 VGA Text 3 VGA Graphic 4 8514A 5 SVGA 800 x 600 6 SVGA 1024 x 768 7 Sony Standard 8 Macintosh 640 x 480 9 Macintosh 832 x 624 The factory-preset conditions can be modified by user input. Upon reset of the system, all the contents of the user modifications are cleared, and reset to the factorypreset conditions. 1 2 3 The user can store 4 the conditions for 5 up to 9 unique 6 video signals in this 7 memory area. 8 9 If more than 9 conditions are programmed into the user memory area, the last input condition will replace the first user input. ♦ The 10th entry moves to 1st location in the user memory. Sony Display Memory System memory map The video muting system If the input video signal changes, the muting circuit senses the change and mutes the screen. This function eliminates scrambled images during the scanning transition.

It will last a minimum of 1.5 seconds approximately. 16
