Sony BKM-21D - Manual (Page 44)

20(E)
You can configure an input and output connector panel
by installing any combination of adaptors in the input
option slots on the rear panel of the video monitor.
By combining adaptors of different types, you gain
access to a wider range of input signals than would be
possible with a single adaptor type.The input signals
made available by different combinations of adaptor
types are shown in the table below.
The number of input option slots varies with video
monitors, and to specify signal types for each input
connector, use the on-screen INPUT
CONFIGURATION menu of your video monitor.
Note
Only one BKM-22X board can be installed in the
monitor togrther with either the BKM-20D or the
BKM-21D.
Combination of Multiple Adaptors
For information about the input option slots and using the
INPUT CONFIGURATION menu, refer to the manual of
your video monitor.
Internal Connections between Decoders
When you install a decoder adaptor (BKM-20D/21D/
24N/26P/26M/27T), it is connected to the other
adaptors installed in your video monitor’s input option
slots over an internal bus. Therefore, if you install a
decoder adaptor for a given signal, you can decode that
signal even when it is input to another adaptor.
