the SMPTE RDD-18 document for Acquisition Metadata Sets for Video Camera Parameters. Further to this,
these monitors also support a subset of Sony’s private metadata.** The monitor is also equipped with a
three-colours red, green and yellow on-screen tally function. The position of the tally display can be
changed to either the upper or lower section of the screen.

* Supported with V1.1

* Not all metadata is supported.

Anamorphic image conversion and Active Format Description (AFD) functions*

The monitor’s anamorphic image conversion function** correctly displays horizontally squeezed 3G/HD-SDI
signals from an onset camera system. The signals include two major systems: 16:9 1920 x 1080 (1280 x 720)
signals and 17:9 2048 x 1080 signals. These signals can be appropriately displayed on the monitor’s screen.
The Active Format Description (AFD) function*** also reads the ancillary data flag on an SDI, and can
upconvert the SD image to display automatically on the full HD resolution screen. This is achieved by
adjusting the resolution and aspect ratio.< br>
* Supported with V1.1

** Only 3G/HD-SDI and dual-link HD-SDI are supported.

*** Only SD-SDI signals are supported.

Grid Display, two Center Markers and Flip functions*

Grid Display function displays arbitrary multiple vertical and horizontal lines to help when users check the
composition of a picture. In addition to a standard Center Marker 1, Center Marker 2 is also available. This
second marker enables easier checking of the centre portion’s focus. The Flip function turns the reversed
image to a normal view, horizontally or vertically.

* Supported with V1.1

Power-on setting, DC Low Power indicator and USB 2.0 for power supply (+5 V, 500 mA)*

Power-on setting allows users to make choice when the monitor starts up; this includes last memory, user
preset, and factory preset settings. So, users can set the monitor accurately and quickly. This function is very
useful for rental equipment. DC power supply is available in the range of 12V to 17V. The power indicator
blinks when the DC power supply is low. In addition, the USB 2.0 port can supply 5 V power to third-party
devices.

* Supported with V1.1

User Presets with password lock and short-cut to function key configuration*

When multiple users share the same monitor, each user can memorize his/her setting data and retrieve this
data whenever required. This frees the user from time consuming and repetitive setting tasks. When multiple
users share the same monitor, each user can register his/her own password for colour temperature and user
preset data. This ensures the user correctly recalls previous user preset data, and keeps preset information
safe from unauthorised use. For improving speed of the function key configuration, the user can take a short-
cut to the settings menu screen by simply pressing the function key repeatedly.

* Supported with V1.1

Multiple monitors upgrade utility*

Multiple PVM-A and LMD-A Series monitors on the same Ethernet network can be upgraded by simple
operation providing an efficient solution for large infrastructure.
