Precautions

On Safety

• Operate the unit only with a power source as specified in the “Specifications” section.
• A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc., is located on the rear panel.
• 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.

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.

Handling the Screen

• The panel fitted to this unit is manufactured with high precision technology, giving a functioning pixel ratio of at least 99.99%. Thus a very small proportion of pixels may be “stuck”, either always off (black), always on (red, green, or blue), or flashing. In addition, over a long period of use, because of the physical characteristics of the panel, such “stuck” pixels may appear spontaneously. These problems are not a malfunction.
• Do not leave the screen facing the sun as it can damage the screen. Take care when you place the unit by a window.
• Do not push or scratch the monitor's screen. Do not place a heavy object on the monitor's screen. This may cause the screen to lose uniformity.
• The screen and the cabinet become warm during operation. This is not a malfunction.

On Burn-in

Due to the characteristics of the material used in the OLED panel for its high-precision images, permanent burn-in may occur if still images are displayed in the same position on the screen continuously, or repeatedly over extended periods.

Images that may cause burn-in

• Masked images with aspect ratios other than 16:9 • Color bars or images that remain static for a long time
• Character or message displays that indicate settings or the operating state
• On-screen displays such as center markers or area markers

To reduce the risk of burn-in

• Turn off the character and marker displays. Press the MENU button to turn off the character displays. To turn off the character or marker displays of the connected equipment, operate the connected equipment accordingly. For details, refer to the operation manual of the connected equipment.
• Turn off the power when not in use. Turn off the power if the viewfinder is not to be used for a prolonged period of time.

Screen saver

This product has a built-in screen saver function to reduce burn-in. When an almost still image is displayed for more than 10 minutes, the screen saver starts automatically and the brightness of the screen decreases.

On a Long Period of Use

Due to an OLED's panel structure and characteristics of materials in its design, displaying static images for extended periods, or using the unit repeatedly in high temperature/high humidity environments may cause image smearing, burn-in, areas of which brightness is permanently changed, lines, or a decrease in overall brightness.

In particular, continued display of an image smaller than the monitor screen, such as in a different aspect ratio, may shorten the life of the unit.

Avoid displaying a still image for an extended period, or using the unit repeatedly in a high temperature/high humidity environment such as an airtight room, or around the outlet of an air conditioner.

To prevent any of the above issues, we recommend reducing brightness slightly, and turning off the power whenever the unit is not in use.

Handling and Maintenance of the Screen

The surface of the screen is specially coated to reduce image reflection. Make sure to observe the following points as improper maintenance procedures may impair the screen's performance. In addition, the screen is vulnerable to damage. Do not scratch or knock against it using a hard object.

• Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet before performing maintenance.
• The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not attach adhesive objects, such as stickers, on it.
• The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not touch the screen directly.
• Wipe the screen surface gently with the supplied cleaning cloth or a soft dry cloth to remove dirt.
• Stubborn stains may be removed with the supplied cleaning cloth, or a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution.
• The screen may become scratched if the cleaning cloth is dusty.
• Never use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzene, thinner, acidic or alkaline detergent, detergent with abrasives, or chemical wipes as these may damage the screen.
• Use a blower to remove dust from the screen surface.

On Dew Condensation

If the viewfinder is moved suddenly from a cold place to a warm place, or used in a room with high humidity, water droplets may form on the interior of the product. This phenomenon is known as dew condensation.

This product does not come with a feature that warns users of dew condensation. If water droplets are found on the casing, turn off the power, and wait until the condensation disappears before using.

On Repacking

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container in which to transport the unit.

Disposal of the Unit

Do not dispose of the unit with general waste.

Do not include the monitor with household waste.

When you dispose of the monitor, you must obey the law in the relative area or country.

On Fan Error

The fan for cooling the unit is built in. When the fan stops and the OPERATE lamp flashes in red, the OVER RANGE lamp flashes in amber, and the ECO lamp lights in magenta on the front panel for fan error indication, turn off the power and contact an authorized Sony dealer.

If you have any questions about this unit, please contact your Sony service representative.

Features

The BVM-F170 is a 16.5-inch professional video monitor. It is suitable for television stations or video production houses where precise image reproduction is required.

The BVM-F170 features an OLED panel and "TRIMASTER", a new technology developed for three elements that are in demand for professional use: "accurate color reproduction", "precision imaging", and "quality picture consistency". TRIMASTER reduces the viewing differences that occur due to the individuality of each panel. Additionally, the BVM-F170 achieves the high picture quality and high reliability required for a master monitor through its color management system, which includes a wide color gamut device, high-resolution and precise gradation display, highly accurate signal processing, and panel correction function.

1) TRIMASTER is a trademark of Sony Corporation.

Advantages of OLED panel technology

The OLED panel uses an organic material that emits light when an electric current is applied. Being self-emitting, the strength of luminescence can be controlled by the amount of electric current. This brings about the following three features:

Quick motion picture response:

The luminescent state of the OLED panel can be changed instantaneously by changing the current flow in the organic material. This enables a quick motion picture response and produces images with minimal blurring and ghosting. Furthermore, performance for shooting on location is not influenced by changes in environmental temperature.

High contrast and wide dynamic range:

The OLED panel does not emit light when a black signal is applied to the monitor, enabling a pure black screen to be displayed. Furthermore, thanks to a wide dynamic range, the panel impressively displays the brilliance and clarity of various sparkling images, such as stars twinkling in a night sky, night illuminations winking, or glass glittering.

Rich color reproduction:

An OLED panel's self-luminescence also allows for great color reproduction across the entire spectrum in practically any shade or brightness.

Sony's Super Top Emission OLED panel

The 16.5-inch full HD (1920 × 1080) OLED panel features Sony's Super Top Emission structure. Unlike the conventional bottom emission structure of TFT, Sony's OLED panel can reproduce a crisper image due to high brightness. Furthermore, a unique microcavity structure makes RGB primary colors purer and deeper by utilizing light resonance effects that magnify optimum light wavelengths and diminish undesired light wavelengths.

The panel's 10-bit driver enables smooth gradation of color shading.

2) "Super Top Emission" is a trademark that represents the OLED technology of Sony Corporation.

12-bit precision display engine for professional use

The panel is equipped with a unique signal process engine developed for professional use monitors. This engine incorporates 12-bit output accuracy at each process, and provides a high-quality I/P conversion algorithm, scaling processing, panel driving and a highly accurate color management system.

Multi color space

The Sony's unique OLED panel with a wide color gamut and color management system which uses the unique 3D LUT (Look Up Table) reproduces the color space that complies with the broadcast standard ITU-R BT.709, EBU and SMPTE-C accurately. A wider color space ³⁾ allows digital cinema reproductions.

3) The RGB chromaticity of SMPTE RP 431-2 is not covered in full.

High-quality I/P conversion processing

A high-quality picture near the original one, in which jagged lines and conversion errors are decreased by detecting the feature of the picture inside the subdivided block and processing properly, is reproduced.

The signal delay is decreased by judging the animation or still picture from the past video signal.

Interlace display mode

The interlace signal is displayed as the interlace picture by inserting the black line without I/P conversion processing. A picture faithful to the original signal and with the same feel as a CRT is gained.

For setting the display, see “Selecting Display Mode” on page 79.

Available to a multi signal format

The monitor supports various input signals such as 720 × 576/50i to 1920 × 1080/50P , 60P and variable computer signals up to 1920 × 1080 . The 3G/HD/SD-SDI inputs, HDMI ⁴⁾ and DisplayPort ⁵⁾ (HDCP correspondence) inputs, and four option ports are equipped for the standard interface. If you install optional input adaptors, the monitor expands inputs of 3G-SDI, HD-SDI or SD-SDI, and supports Dual-link HD-SDI, RGB, YPbPr, Y/C, and composite signal inputs.

4) HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing, LLC.

5) DisplayPort, DisplayPort logo and VESA are trademarks or registered trademarks of Video Electronics Standards Association.

HD frame capture function

The frame of the 3G/HD-SDI input signal is captured and saved as a picture file in the “Memory Stick”. This is used to confirm the color tone and picture angle of the current scene and recorded scene by using the multi display (Picture&Picture) function.

For the operation, see “Capturing the Picture of the HD Signal (HD Frame Capture)” on page 84.

As the frame of the input signal is captured, the data and marker set by the monitor is not reflected.

Multi display function

Two kinds of input signals are output on the monitor. Side by side mode is useful for adjusting the color or comparing two pictures.

For the operation, see “Displaying Two Signals on One Screen (Picture & Picture)” on page 82.

Pixel zoom function

As part of the picture is magnified up to 8 times without scaling processing, this is convenient for confirming a minute part of the signal.

For the operation, see “Magnifying the Picture (Pixel Zoom)” on page 83.

Safe area marker and aspect marker functions

The monitor is equipped with two area markers and center marker as the safe area marker and aspect marker for confirming the picture angle.

For the operation, see “Displaying the Area Marker or Aspect Marker” on page 85.

Scan selection/Native scan display function

You can select from under scan (-3%), normal scan (0%) and over scan (mask of the 5% over scan portion in the normal scan) for the picture display.

The monitor is equipped with a native scan display function which maps the pixel of the signal to the panel in one-to-one mode. You can select the mode from ×1, ×2 or Aspect Correction to display a signal in native mode. An SD signal of non-square pixels (the number of H pixels of the signal system is 720 or 1440) or a 640 × 480 SD signal of HDMI/DisplayPort video is displayed correctly by scaling processing of doubling for the V direction and correct aspect ratio for the H direction, and the picture is also optimized and displayed by modifying the aperture coefficient value, filter coefficient value, etc. in Aspect Correction mode.

For the operation, see “Selecting the Native Scan/Scan Mode” on page 81.

Aspect selectable function

A squeezed and recorded signal is displayed with the correct angle. You can select from 4:3 and 16:9 aspect modes.

Remote control function (Ethernet control)

The controller controls up to 32 monitors by the Ethernet (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) connection. Up to four controllers are connected to one monitor in single mode. You can control individual monitors or monitor groups simply by entering the monitor ID number or group ID number. You can also execute the same operation on all connected monitors, or put all connected monitors into the same setup and adjustment state.

Time code display function

The time code superimposed on the SDI signal is displayed.

Closed caption display function

EIA/CEA-608 or EIA/CEA-708 standard closed caption signals superimposed on the SDI signals are displayed by installing the optional input adaptor (BKM-244CC).

Audio level meter display function

The audio level of the embedded audio signals superimposed on the SDI signal is displayed by installing the optional input adaptor (BKM-250TG).

3D signal analyzing function

The monitor supports the following display modes of the 3D signal analyzing function if you install the optional input adaptor (BKM-250TG). For this function, two-dimensional (2D) view is used. The signals are not displayed in stereoscopic view.

The available display modes differ depending on the serial number of the BKM-250TG.

For the operation, see “Switching the Display of the 3D Video Signal” on page 87.

Difference display (with serial number 7300001 or higher):

The difference between the luminance signal of the left (L) 3D video signal and that of the right (R) signal is displayed. This display is useful for checking parallax amount.

Checkerboard display (with serial number 7100001 or higher):

The left (L) and right (R) 3D video signals are displayed in a checkerboard pattern on the screen. This display is useful for comparing the luminance or color settings of neighboring L and R images.

L/R switching display (with serial number 7100001 or higher):

The dual-stream left (L) and right (R) 3D video signals are alternately displayed on the screen. This display is useful for comparing the color or brightness of the L and R signals, as a black frame is not inserted when the two signals are switched.

Horopter check display (with serial number 7100001 or higher):

Either left (L) or right (R) 3D video signals, or both L and R signals are displayed in monochrome mode. This display is useful for checking a subtle depth of a subject located in the boundary plane of the screen, that is, whether it is near or far from the screen surface.

Horizontal flip display (with serial number 7100001 or higher):

The input 3D video signals whose left (L) or right (R) signal has been inverted horizontally by a half-mirror type 3D rig are displayed as non-inverted images.

Note

The horizontal flip display function of this monitor inverts the input signals to display them. Since the internal sync is applied to any signal delayed by the inversion, there is a time lag between input and the displayed image.

Overview

This menu is used to lock the data so that the settings cannot be changed by an unauthorized user.

Menu Function and Operation

Menu Function and operation ([	]: factory setting)
Key Protect Sets the key protection.	On: The button on the controller (except the menu operation buttons and monitor selection buttons) and the parallel remote do not function and other settings are not changeable.[Off]: Release the lock.

Selecting Display Mode

This monitor applies high contrast to the picture and reproduces accurate color by displaying the interlace signal in progressive mode via I/P conversion, or the PsF/progressive signal in progressive mode without I/P conversion.

You can select the interlace display mode according to the input signal or the object to evaluate the picture.

Interlace display mode: The picture is displayed in interlace mode without I/P conversion processing. The picture is monitored close to the original quality of the input signal.

Notes

• When a 1080/24 ¹⁾ P (PsF) or 1080/25P (PsF) input signal is displayed in progressive mode, the frame rate for display is 72 ¹⁾ Hz or 75 Hz to obtain flickerless display.
• When the input signal is 1080/24 ¹⁾ PsF or 1080/25PsF and 1080I is set in the 1080I/PsF menu of the Channel Configuration menu, the frame rate for display is 48 ¹⁾ Hz or 50 Hz.
• The luminance is reduced due to the principle of operation in the interlace display mode. However, on this monitor, the normal luminance is set by increasing the gain value. For this reason, in the interlace display mode, the range of contrast adjustment is different from the normal level, and the luminance may be reduced according to the contrast setting.
• The picture is not displayed in interlace mode in the following cases:
• When Side by Side is set to On
• When Pixel Zoom is set to On

1 For selecting the interlace display mode, set Native Scan (page 58) to On in the Function Setting menu or by pressing the NATIVE SCAN button of the controller.

2 Set Interlace to On in the Function Switch menu (page 58) of the Function Setting menu, or by pressing the Interlace button 2) on the controller.

For the input signal to display in frame mode and interlace mode, see "Picture Frame Display" on page 110.

1) Also compatible with a frame rate of 1/1.001. 2) Interlace is assigned to a function button of the controller in the Function Key menu (page 74) of the Controller menu.

Setting the Display of Native Scan Mode

About the native scan mode

You can set the picture display type for the native scan mode according to the input signal.

You can select ×1 or ×2, which differ in picture display size, to map the pixels of the signal to the panel in one-to-one mode, or Aspect Correction. An SD signal of non-square pixels (the number of H pixels of the signal system is 720 or 1440) or a 640 × 480 SD signal of

HDMI/DisplayPort video is displayed correctly by scaling processing of doubling for the V direction and correct aspect ratio for the H direction, and the picture is also optimized and displayed by modifying the aperture coefficient value, filter coefficient value, etc. in Aspect Correction mode.

For details, see "Picture Display Size" on page 108.

Set the native scan mode in the Native Scan Mode menu (page 53) of the Auxiliary Setting menu.

Note

The native scan is not selectable in the following cases:

• When the input signal has no sync signal
• When Side by Side is set to On
• When Pixel Zoom is set to on
• When the HDMI/DisplayPort computer signal is input (The native scan is displayed regardless of the setting.)
• When the signal system is the SD signal of 720 × 576 or 1440 × 576, Native Scan Mode is set to Aspect Correction or ×2 and the internal signal displayed (Native Scan is set to Off and the normal scan is displayed regardless of the setting.)

Inserting/Ejecting the "Memory Stick"

The BKM-16R Monitor Control Unit has a slot that can take both standard size and Duo size. All products with a slot such as this are equipped with a system which automatically measures the size of an inserted medium.

For this reason, both the standard-size "Memory Stick"/"Memory Stick PRO" and smaller "Memory Stick Duo"/"Memory Stick PRO Duo" can be used with this product without a Memory Stick Duo adaptor.

When an M2 adaptor is attached, you can use a "Memory Stick Micro" ("M2")¹.

Proceed as illustrated to insert and eject an optional "Memory Stick".

See each menu for information about operations on "Memory Stick" data.

1) "M2" is an abbreviation for "Memory Stick Micro".

Note

Do not eject the "Memory Stick" while data is being saved or loaded.
