Precaution  
On safety  
On repacking  
• Operate the unit only with a power source as  
specified in “Specifications” section.  
• The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power  
consumption, etc., is located at the rear.  
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.  
They make an ideal container which to transport the  
unit. When shipping the unit to another location,  
repack it as illustrated on the carton.  
• 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.  
• Do not drop or place heavy objects on the power  
cord. If the power cord is damaged, turn off the  
power immediately. It is dangerous to use the unit  
with a damaged power cord.  
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be  
used for several days or more.  
• Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet by  
grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord.  
• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the  
equipment and shall be easily accessible.  
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your  
authorized Sony dealer.  
On magnetism  
• Do not place the unit near any objects or pieces of  
equipment which generate magnetism, such as  
magnets, speakers, electric clocks, toys using  
magnets, health appliances, etc. Magnetism will  
cause picture bounce, oscillations or picture  
discoloration.  
• Also, the picture may become fuzzy or the colors  
may not reproduce correctly due to earth magnetism.  
This depends on direction that the unit is installed.  
This is not equipment failure. In such a case, simply  
degauss the unit.  
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 the CRT  
• Dust accumulates on the CRT easily. Clean the CRT  
when necessary with a soft cloth.  
The surface of the CRT is easily scratched; therefore,  
do not rub or touch the surface of the CRT  
unnecessarily since this may result in a scratched  
picture tube.  
On cleaning  
• If you touch the surface of the CRT, you may feel a  
weak electrical shock. This is simply static electricity  
that is generated on the surface of the CRT. It will not  
affect the human body.  
To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean  
it with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong  
solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive  
cleansers since they will damage the cabinet. As a  
safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.

memory card  
The BVM-20F1U/20F1E/20E1U/20E1E, BVM-  
14F1U/14F1E/14E1U/14E1E and BVM-14F5U/  
14F5E/14E5U/14E5E Trinitron®1) Color Video  
Monitors are high-performance 20- and 14-inch color  
video monitors. They are suitable for television  
stations or video production houses, where precise  
image reproduction is required.  
You can use an optional BKM-12Y Monitor Memory  
Card to save and load monitor setup and adjustment  
data. If your system includes more than one monitor,  
you can use the monitor memory cards to exchange  
data between monitors. This makes it easy to put all  
monitors in your system into the same setup and  
adjustment state.  
1) Trinitron® is a registered trademark of Sony  
Corporation.  
Standard auto alignment system  
Decoder chroma and phase adjustment, as well as  
color temperature control, may be performed with the  
auto alignment system. This makes it possible to  
coordinate settings among multiple monitors.  
Features

Separate control unit (BVM-20FIU/20FIE/  
20EIU/20EIE/14FIU/14FIE/14EIU/14EIE only)  
The BVM-20F1U/20F1E/20E1U/20E1E/14F1U/  
14F1E/14E1U/14E1E are controlled by a separate  
control unit, such as a BKM-10R/11R Monitor Control  
Unit. Use of a separate control unit reduces the space  
needed for the equipment. With the BVM-20F1U/  
20F1E/20E1U/20E1E, it is also possible to attach the  
BKM-10R with an optional BKM-32H Monitor  
Control Unit Attachment Kit.  
Stable color temperature  
The internal beam current feedback circuit maintains a  
constant color temperature over long periods of time.  
Blue-only mode convenient for monitoring  
noise  
All three CRT cathodes can be driven with a blue  
signal, producing a monochrome display. This mode  
is convenient for chroma and phase adjustment, and  
for monitoring VTR noise.  
Controlling monitor groups  
Up to 32 monitors can be controlled from this monitor.  
First, the built-in menu system is used to assign a  
monitor address number to each monitor, divide the  
monitors into groups, and assign a group number to  
each group. Then you can use this monitor to control  
individual monitors or monitor groups simply by  
entering monitor address or group numbers. You can  
also execute the same operation on all connected  
monitors, or use this monitor to put all connected  
monitors into the same setup and adjustment state.  
Menu operation  
The monitor’s various functions and operating  
conditions can be set with on-screen menus.

For example, when a BKM-24N and a BKM-27T are  
installed and an NTSC signal is selected, the NTSC  
signal connected to the BKM-24N’s input connectors  
and the NTSC signal connected to the BKM-27T’s  
input connectors are both processed by the decoder on  
the BKM-24N.

Note on using the BKM-20D/21D  
When installing the input adaptor in an input option  
slot on the rear of the monitor, or fitting a cover plate  
to an unused slot, always do such operation in order  
from the rightmost slot, as shown in Figure 1. If a  
BKM-20D/21D is already installed, first of all remove  
it and then do the installing operation in order from the  
rightmost slot.  
When removing a BKM-20D/21D, always loosen all  
input adaptor screws and then remove in order from  
the rightmost slot, as shown in Figure 2.  
Figure 1  
Figure 2  
When one of the input option slots on the rear of the  
monitor has a BKM-20D/21D (optional) installed, if  
the slot to the right has another adaptor or the analog  
input connectors board, or a cover plate fitted, as  
shown in Figure 3, the radiation shield of the BKM-  
20D/21D may be damaged or detached (see Figure 4).  
Using the BKM-20D/21D with the radiation shield  
damaged or detached may result in electromagnetic  
interference. Always use care about the radiation  
shield.

Menu Structure  
About menu numbers  
In this manual, menu numbers are used to classify the  
menus and show the route that you follow to reach any  
particular menu.  
A menu number consists of a letter (alphabetical  
character) followed by one or more digits. The letter  
identifies the menu group (see the preceding page),  
and the digits indicate selections to be made on the  
respective menu levels.  
For example, the menu number A1321 shows that you  
can reach the menu by making selections on the  
respective menu levels as follows.  
Select CONTROL PRESET ADJ in the  
main menu.  
Select the 1st item on menu level 1.  
Select the 3rd item on menu level 2.  
Select the 2nd item on menu level 3.  
Select the 1st item on menu level 4.  
e.g. A1321  
Note  
The menu numbers are merely for convenience of  
explanation. They do not appear on the screen of your  
monitor.  
ADDRESS Menu  
In addition to the menus listed in the table, the  
ADDRESS menu is provided. This ADDRESS menu  
is used to select the monitor or the monitor group, so  
that when several monitors are connected together via  
serial remote ports, the control panel can select which  
monitor to control.  
To display or exit the ADDRESS menu, press the  
ADDRESS button. The method of choosing menu  
items and changing settings is the same as with the  
other menus.  
For details of the ADDRESS menu, see “Selecting the  
Monitor to Control —ADDRESS Menu” on page 54.

Menu Directories  
The menu system for the BVM-series monitors  
covered by this manual is largely divided into eight  
menus (or eight menu groups), which are arranged in  
the main menu. Each of the eight menus consists of  
many items (subsidiary menus and settings) arranged  
on several menu levels.  
The diagram below shows part of the structure of the  
menu system from the main menu down to level 2. For  
the structure of each menu, see the page whose number

Assigning the Remote Control Functions  
— REMOTE Menu  
Overview  
The remote control functions are set with the  
About monitor address and group numbers  
REMOTE menu. With this monitor, both serial remote  
control (REMOTE 1) and parallel remote control  
(REMOTE 2) are possible. It is possible to  
simultaneously use the REMOTE 1, and REMOTE 2  
for control, but commands from REMOTE 2 have  
priority. Therefore, it is impossible for the control  
panel or REMOTE 1 to change items set by REMOTE  
2.  
There is no priority order between commands from  
REMOTE 1 and the BKM-10R/11R control panel; it is  
possible to set APERTURE to ON from REMOTE 1  
and then set it to OFF with a control panel operation.  
The BKM-10R/11R or HDM-14E5U, BVM-14E5U/  
14E5E/14F5U/14F5E/14G5U/14G5E/14G5A are able  
to control up to 32 monitors connected via serial  
remote connector (using the REMOTE 1 connector).  
By giving each monitor a monitor address and group  
number, it is possible to control just a specific monitor  
or monitor group.  
With the REMOTE menu, each monitor can be set  
with a monitor address and group number, between 1  
and 99.  
The ADDRESS menu is used to select a particular  
monitor or group by entering a monitor number or  
group number.  
For details of the ADDRESS menu, see “Selecting the  
Monitor to Control —ADDRESS Menu” on page 55.  
Note  
The address number must differ from one monitor to  
another. If two or more monitors have the same  
address number, an operation error occurs.
