The 18-Series high quality, high performance auto setup color monitors are designed for various monitoring requirements, such as professional use at broadcasting and production facilities, corporate video and educational TV systems.

• The 18-Series monitor is an Auto Setup Unit. By using an optional Auto Setup Probe (ASP- 15), the following functions can be automatically setup at a referenced level or stored in less than 50 seconds.
  1) CONTRAST
  2) BRIGHTNESS
  3) CHROMA
  4) HUE (NTSC only)
  5) RGB BACKGROUND
  6) GB GAIN
• All switching operations are digitally controlled with no objectional noise on the screen.
• Two composite video inputs, one R, G, B/Component input, one Y/C input and one external sync input are provided as standard to meet any signal source. The component input levels can be selected for format standard. (SMPTE/N10/Beta).
• The 18-Series has construction allows circuit adjustment and module removal for internal maintenance during rack-mounted operation without removing from the rack.
• Feedback Clamp System insures black level and white balance stability.
• The 18-Series has an automatic degaussing circuit which is operated with power-on. This prevents misconvergence due to shadow-mask magnetization when the monitor is rotated or moved.
• In-line gun, dot shadow mask CRT assures excellent color reproduction and fine picture with mask pitches: 0.31mm for the 14" and 0.43mm for the 20".
• CRT protection circuit protects the CRT from damage or burning due to deflection failure and over-voltage.
• H.DEF./H.V. circuits permit stable raster size at all times against rapid APL change or high brightness signal input.
