Connector Panel Configuration

The unit comes standard with connectors for one channel of Y/PB/PR or GBR. By adding the optional decoder adaptor or input expansion adaptors, the input/ output connector panel can be assembled in a wide variety of configurations. The signals that each of the adaptors’ connectors supports are given in the table below. The type of signal to be applied to each input/ output connector is set with the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu.

Notes

•One BKM-22X can be attached simultaneously with the BKM-20D or BKM-21D.

•The BKM-20D, BKM-21D and BKM-22X can not provide proper active-through outputs if a signal whose format is not selected in the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu is input. (If AUTO is selected, input a signal which has the same format with the signal monitored last.)

For information about the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu, see “ [C1] Setting the Input Configuration (SET UP 1)

— INPUT CONFIGURATION Menu” on page 35.

Priority of the decoder adaptors

When multiple decoder adaptors for NTSC or PAL format are installed, their priority is as in the following table.

Example: To monitor the composite NTSC signal when the BKM-24N and BKM-27T are installed, the input composite NTSC signal is always decoded by the BKM-24N.
