The screen alignment controller is used in combination with the JTC-P200

image control unit (ICU) and JTC-C200 ICU controller. As this manual

explains how to use the JTC-P200 and JTC-C200 only briefly, please refer

to the Operating Instructions of the JTC-C200 for details.

•Do not use the unit in high humidity.

If any abnormality occurs, turn off the power and consult with qualified

Sony service personnel.

On cleaning

Clean the case and front panel with a dry soft cloth, or a soft cloth slightly

moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any organic solvents,

such as alcohol or benzene, which might damage the finish.

6Overview

The JumboTron system displays video images on a large screen

(JumboTron screen) located either outdoors or indoors. Images from video

sources such as a VCR, video camera and computer can be displayed on

the screen.

The JumboTron system provides superb bright images with high

resolution, regardless of whether it is day or night, indoors or outdoors.

Images to be displayed on the JumboTron screen

The JumboTron system can display the following three types of images:

[a] Video images input from equipment such as a VCR, video camera

and video disc (INPUT 1)

[b] Computer graphics (INPUT 2)

[c] Mixed images of INPUT 1 and INPUT 2

(INPUT 1 images are superimposed on the monochrome area of the

INPUT 2 images.)

Overview 7

Structure of the JumboTron screen

The basic element of the JumboTron screen is an RGB trio (dot).

A “cell” consists of the dots arranged at a certain interval (picture element

pitch) and a “unit (JumboTron display unit)” consists of cells.

There are two unit types, the LDU-15 series (with 15-mm pitch) and the

LDU-30 series (with 30-mm pitch). You can configure a large JumboTron

screen by arranging the JumboTron display units vertically and

horizontally to suit various uses or locations. An example structure of each

series is as follows:

Overview 9

Features

The JME-SA200 screen alignment controller is designed to check the

operation of the JumboTron screen and to adjust the position, size,

brightness and picture quality of the image. The wireless remote control

system using the public telephone system assures reliable data

communication.

The main functions of the JME-SA200 are as follows:

Wireless remote controller using a cellular phone

Interactive data communication is carried out via the cellular phone

connected to the JME-SA200 and the modem connected to the JTC-C200

ICU controller. This data communication method using the public

telephone system offers a highly reliable wireless remote control system.

The JME-SA200 can also be used as a wired remote controller by

connecting to the ICU controller using a connecting cable (with a

maximum cable length of 1,000 m).

Checking the operation of the screen

Activating the test signal generator built in the display units which

constitute the screen, the JME-SA200 displays the stair step and color bar

signals on the screen for checking the operation of each display unit.

Adjusting the luminance of a specified unit or cell

The JumboTron screen may partially degrade the brightness or color

uniformity after long use. The JME-SA200 can correct the uniformity by

adjusting the luminance or color temperature of a specified unit or cell.

Adjusting the position and size of the image

The JME-SA200 can shift the image on the screen vertically or

horizontally, and change the image size (expansion/reduction level). The

JME-SA200 automatically calculates and displays the aspect ratio of the

adjusted image.

The adjusted data can be stored in the memory of the ICU, and recalled

instantly by specifying the memory number.

Adjusting the brightness of the image

The JME-SA200 can adjust the brightness of the whole screen to 16 levels.

Setting the area of a computer graphics image mixed with a

video image

When displaying a video image over the monochrome portion of a

computer graphics image, the JME-SA200 can specify the area to be

mixed as R, G and B data.

Adjusting the picture quality on the screen

The JME-SA200 can adjust the color, hue and sharpness of the image on

the screen.

Storing up to 256 unit or cell numbers

The JME-SA200 can register up to 256 unit or cell numbers to be adjusted

or repaired to store these numbers in the memory of the ICU.
