PVM-1741

17-inch Professional OLED Picture Monitor

PRELIMINARY INFORMATION

consistency. EL (Electro-Luminescence) is an ideal

display device of self emission with high dynamic
range and high picture quality. With the new "EL"
device refining the "TRIMASTER" technology, Sony
now re-defines the professional industry with
"TRIMASTER EL" line ups.

Superb Black Performance

Thanks to the Sony OLED display panels, the deep
black can be accurately displayed and the black portion of an image is not raised.
The PVM-1741 All in one OLED picture monitor delivers unparalleled picture quality with high-value performance features and functions, all in a compact
design.
Sonys 17-inch Super Top Emission OLED display panel benefits from superb black performance, wide colour gamut, and quick response with virtually no motion blur. By combining the Sony OLED display panel
(Full HD, 10-bit driver) and Sonys OLED processing
technologies, the PVM-1741 OLED monitor delivers
groundbreaking picture quality.
This product comes with the full PrimeSupport package with 2-years warranty. Thats fast, hassle-free repairs, a helpline offering expert technical advice, and
a free loan unit while yours is repaired. Plus the peace
of mind that Sony is looking after your equipment
and your business.

Leistungsmerkmale
Sony OLED with Full HD and RGB 10-bit driver
The PVM-1741 OLED panel features a Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) and RGB 10-bit driver together
with Sonys Super Top Emission OLED display panel to
create life-like and smoother-than-ever gradation
from dark to bright portions of a scene such as in a
sunrise or sunset.

TRIMASTER EL design architecture

TRIMASTER Technology is a design architecture used
to bring out the full performance capabilities of
professional flat-panel displays. It comprises the core
technologies that enable the highest level of colour
accuracy, precision imaging, and picture-quality

Wide Colour Gamut and High-Purity Deep Colour

Reproduction
Sony OLED is a display device with a wide colour
gamut offering not only colour gamuts of broadcast
standards (ITU-RU BT.709, EBU, SMPTE-C), but also
offers the widest colour gamut of the Sony OLED panel.
Sonys Super Top Emission technology is using microcavity and colour filters. Sonys micro-cavity structure
uses an optical resonance effect and its colour filters
enhance the colour purity of each RGB colour. This
combination is also effective in reducing ambient light
reflection, and consequently deep colour reproduction
can be achieved without colour degradation, even in
bright environments.

Quick Response with Blur-free Motion

Because the OLED Electro-Luminescent layer inherently responds to any electrical current input, it emits
light immediately. By this mechanism, excellent quick
response characteristics can be achieved in fast-motion images. This efficient, blur-free, fast response
benefits a variety of applications and scenes, eg. in
sports broadcasting, monitoring of camera panning
and text scrolling.

Superb Uniformity
The PVM-1741 monitor incorporates a newly-developed OLED processor to bring out the full performance of the Sony OLED panels. This OLED processor
offers superb uniformity across everywhere on the
screen. At the factory, the OLED panel uniformity is
precisely measured and corrected using a sophisticated RGB LUT (Look-Up Table) adjustment system.

I/P Mode Selection

Input Versatility

The PVM-1741 monitor provides three I/P modes so

that users can select the most suitable mode for each
purpose:

The PVM-1741 is equipped with built-in standard input

interfaces: 3G/HD/SD-SDI (x2), HDMI input (x1) and
composite (x1).

INTER-FIELD: This mode interpolates images between

fields. This is used for picture quality precedence (eg.
to reduce the jagged effect on moving pictures).

Waveform Monitor, Audio Level Meter and Time

Code Display

FIELD MERGE: This mode combines lines alternately

in odd and even fields, regardless of picture movements. This is used for PsF (Progressive Segmented
Frame) processing and still image monitoring.
LINE DOUBLER: This mode interpolates by repeating
each line. This is used for editing and monitoring fastmoving images and checking line flicker. The minimum processing time is less than one field (0.5
frames).

Lightweight Compact Design Flexible Styling For

Picture Monitoring
The PVM-1741 incorporate a lightweight, compact
metal body, and its style can flexibly be changed according to the users application: a desktop with
standard stands, or with an optional stand SU-561, or
without a stand for wall application.
The monitor supports VESA mounting of 100 mm
pitch and an EIA 19-inch standard rack with an optional rackmount bracket. These features are flexible
for a variety of users applications, such as desktop
editing, office viewing, monitor wall in studio-sub and
installing in OB Vans.

Easy-to-use Control Panel

A rotary-type switch and seven function-assignable
buttons allow users speedy and intuitive operation.
Operation buttons with LED indicators enable errorfree operation, even in dark environments.*
* LED lights can be switched on/off.

The input signals waveform with a 2-channel audio

level meter can be displayed on screen. When an SDI
interface is connected, the embedded audio level can
be displayed on screen with an 8-channel audio level
meter. A time code superimposed on SDI signals can
be displayed on screen. Users can select either LTC or
VITC. The Audio Level Meter function works only
when receiving SDI-embedded audio signals.

Auto White Balance

PVM-1741 monitors are adjusted at the factory to
achieve optimized colour, brightness, and gamma prior to shipment. OLED monitor performance, however,
typically changes over time and requires regular recalibration to maintain its original performance.
The PVM-1741 monitor employs a software-based
white balance calibration function, which is called
AutoWhiteBalance. Combined with a PC and commercially available calibration tool*, this function enables
simple adjustment of the monitors white balance.

External Remote Control Function

The PVM-1741 has an external remote control capability for input/output signal selection and adjustment
of various items via Ethernet (10BASE-T/100BASETX)
connection. Up to 32 monitors and up to four control
units can be connected via Ethernet connection and
controlled remotely on the network The PVM-1741
also supports some (though not all) of the functions
of the BKM-16R an optional remote control unit for
BVM-E/BVM-L/PVM-L Series monitors such as power
on/off switch and Input Select function.
