Table of Contents Features Precautions 3 Features 3 Location and function of parts and controls 4 Specifications 8 Timing chart 10 Precautions On safety • Operate the unit only on 120 V AC. • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. • Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for several days or more. • To disconnect the AC power cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself. On installation • Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes. • Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock. On cleaning To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleansers since these will damage the cabinet. As a safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it. On repacking Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container in which to transport the unit. When shipping the unit to another location, repack it as illustrated on the carton. If you have any questions about this unit, contact your authorized Sony dealer. The GVM-2000 is a high-resolution color video monitor for use with video or RGB video equipment. Monitoring RGB signals of 15 kHz to 36 kHz horizontal scanning freqencies and 50 Hz to 100 Hz vertical scanning frequencies, and NTSC video signals is possible with one unit. Multiscan color monitor The monitor, which accepts 15 kHz to 36 kHz horizontal scanning frequencies and 50 Hz to 100 Hz vertical scanning frequencies, and detects the frequencies automatically, is compatible with a wide range of video equipment. Analog/digital RGB multi connector Analog and digital RGB input signals can be fed through the D-sub 9-pin multi connector. Analog RGB BNC connector Analog RGB signal of video equipment can be fed through this connector. Compatible with RGB equipment using 64 colors The monitor allows reproduction of 8, 16 or 64 color for digital RGB input signals with the 16/64 or 8 COLOR selector and by sync polarity. RGB A SELECT connector Input signals fed through the RGB A connector can be selected with external equipment. Automatic termination of the BNC-type video input connector The BNC-type video input connector is automatically terminated at 75 ohms when no cable is connected to the output connector. When a cable is connected to the output connector, the signal input through the corresponding IN connector is output from the output connector. CONTROL S input connector Connecting this connector to the CONTROL S output of video equipment enables remote control operations of the power on/off, input select, volume and picture settings through the video equipment. Y/C connector A video signal split into the chrominance (C) signal and the luminance (Y) signal can be input through this connector, eliminating the interference between the two signals, which tends to occur in a composite video signal, and also assuring the picture quality. Note on equipment to be connected A good-quality picture can be obtained when the GVM2000 is connected to equipment with the timing indicated in the "Timing Chart" on page 10. If the monitor is connected to equipment with the timing not indicated in the chart, the picture quality may not be assured. 3
