Chapter 1 Overview
Decoder and input expansion adaptors
The input connector panel is configured by sliding the
optional decoder adaptor or input expansion adaptor
into the input option slot at the rear of the monitor. Up
to four adaptors can be installed to the monitor.
The input signal type for each connector of the adaptor
is set with the INPUT CONFIGURATION menu, in
accordance with the configuration of the connector
panel.
Note
When installing the adaptor, be sure to perform the
necessary input signal setup with the INPUT
CONFIGURATION menu. If the setup is not
performed, the adaptors may not function correctly.
For information about the INPUT CONFIGURATION
menu, see “[C1] Setting the Input Configuration (SET UP 1)
— INPUT CONFIGURATION Menu” on page 35.

channels and an analog signal channel.
Notes
• The BKM-41HD and BKM-42HD use two input
option slots.
• The signal from the MONITOR OUT connector of
the BKM-41HD/42HD does not satisfy the ON-LINE
signal specifications.
