SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
In order to prevent any fatal accidents caused by
misoperation or mishandling the monitor, be fully aware of all
the following precautions.
FCC NOTICE (U.S.A. only)
WARNINGS
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
monitor to rain or moisture. Dangerous high voltages
are present inside the unit. Do not remove the back
cover of the cabinet. When servicing the monitor,
contrast qualified service personnel. Never try to
service it yourself.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not approved by
JVC could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
WARNING : THIS APPARATUS
MUST BE EARTHED.
Improper operations, in particular alternation of high
voltage or changing the type of tube may result in x-ray
emission of considerable dose. A unit altered in such a
way no longer meets the standards of certification, and
must therefore no longer be operated.
This monitor is equipped with a 3-blade grounding-type
plug to satisfy FCC rule. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your electrician.
Ⅵ PRECAUTIONS
Ⅵ HANDLING
● Avoid shocks or vibrations. These may damage the unit and
cause it to malfunction.
● Use only the power source specified on the unit.
(120 V/230 V AC, 50 Hz/60 Hz)
● Keep flammable material, water, and metal objects away
from the unit – especially the interior of the unit.
● This unit incorporates high voltage circuitry.
For your own safety and that of your equipment, do not
attempt to modify or disassemble this monitor.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
● Do not block the ventilation slots.
● Do not expose this unit to high temperatures.
Extended exposure to direct sunlight or a heater could
deform the cabinet or cause the performance of internal
components to deteriorate.
● Do not place the unit near appliances generating strong
electric or magnetic fields. There can generate picture noise
and instability.
● Video or audio signals cannot be input to this monitor
without optional input cards.
● In these instructions, all explanations (except where noted)
refer to the DT-V1700CG with input cards installed.
● Keep the monitor clean by wiping the cabinet and CRT
screen with a piece of soft cloth. Do not apply thinner or
benzine. These chemicals can damage the finish and erase
printed letters. When the unit is excessively dirty, use a
diluted neutral cleanser, then wipe away the cleanser with a
dry cloth.
SCREEN BURN
DEGAUSS
● It is not recommended to keep a certain still image
displayed on screen for a long time as well as displaying
extremely bright images on screen. This may cause a
burning (sticking) phenomenon on the screen of cathode-ray
tube. This problem does not occur as far as displaying
normal video playback motion images.
● Do not use a magnet eraser to degauss the monitor’s
cathode ray tube from the outside. Doing so may distort its
aperture grill and cause a malfunction.

HOW TO USE EXTERNAL
CONTROL
Ⅵ ABOUT EXTERNAL CONTROL
This multi-format monitor has two external control terminals. One is the MAKE terminal, which controls the monitor by connecting
the terminals with many functions to the ground (GND) terminal. The other is the RS-232C terminal, which allows the monitor to
be controlled by a PC via serial communication.
Control priority is in the following order; the MAKE terminal > the RS-232C terminal > the buttons on the front panel.

Operation
1. Set REMOTE ENABLE to ON.
2. Short-circuit or disconnect the desired terminal.
Changing the Signal Input
1. Set REMOTE ENABLE to ON.
2. Short-circuit the desired INPUT terminal.
3. Disconnect the INPUT terminal selected above. The signal input is actually changed after the disconnection has been
completed.
NOTE : When more than two terminals are selected (short-circuited) from INPUT A through INPUT F, the signal input is not
changed.
To control INPUT A through INPUT F, we recommend using the interlock switch, which turns off a switch when another
switch is turned on.

During Communication from the PC to the Monitor
The monitor receives the data when DSR remains ON (high) and CTS is set to ON.
During Communication from the Monitor to the PC
The monitor sends the data when both DSR and DCD are set to ON and RTS is set to ON.
Communication Procedures
The following is the communication procedures.
1. Starting the communication
Receives the connection command (!BCN1Cr) from the PC [ Sends the monitor’s status (@BOKCr) to the PC
2. Performing the external control
Receives the control command (!XXXXCr) from the PC [ Sends the monitor’s status (@BOKCr) to the PC
* The monitor repeats these receiving and sending if necessary.
3. Terminating the communication
Receives the termination command (!BCN0Cr) [ Sends the monitor’s status (@BOKCr) to the PC
* After sending the data to the monitor, the PC must first receive the data from the monitor and then send the next command
because the communication is performed in a hand-shake system. If the PC does not receive the status from the monitor after
sending the command, re-send the command.

The following are not malfunctions:
● You may see two horizontal lines on the monitor. They are
the shadows of the “damper lines” that are necessary for
composing the monitor. These lines are not a malfunction.
● When a bright still image (such as a white cloth) is
displayed for a long period, it may appear to be coloured.
This is due to the structure of the cathode ray tube and
will disappear when another image is displayed.
● You may sometimes experience a mild electric shock
when you touch the picture tube. This phenomenon is due
to a normal buildup of static electricity on the CRT and is
not harmful.
● The monitor emits a strange sound when the room
temperature changes suddenly. This is only a problem if
an abnormality appears on the screen as well.
● If two or more monitors are operated next to each other,
their images may shake or be distorted. This phenomenon
is due to mutual interference; it is not a malfunction. Move
the monitors away from each other until the interference
disappears or turn the power off on any monitor that is not
being used.

APPENDIX: CONNECTION EXAMPLES FOR THE
SDI / HD SDI INPUT CARD
This section explains the usage precautions and connection examples when using the SWITCHED OUT terminal of the SDI / HD
SDI input card.
Usage Precautions
● The selected signal is output from the SWITCHED OUT terminal only when the monitor’s power is turned on.
● The output signal from the SWITCHED OUT terminal is the one that is selected from the signals input to SDI 1 / HD SDI 1 or
SDI 2 / HD SDI 2.
The table below shows the connection between the INPUT SELECT buttons (input signal selection) and the input/output of
the SDI / HD SDI input card.
