Appendix C Frequently Asked Questions This appendix provides answers to frequently asked questions regarding the Dolby® Professional Reference Monitor (PRM‐4220). My CRT has a bias control. Why is there no bias control on the PRM-4220? CRTs are analog devices, which require both gain and bias controls, as they are sensitive to small voltage offsets in the signal path. Typically, you adjust the gain control first to set the white point, and then set the bias control to adjust the black point.
Frequently Asked Questions Using the Remote, I cannot select the SDI B Link input, but I connected an HD-SDI input to the SDI B input port. Link B is active only when link A also has a valid input. Use link A for all single‐link input operations. When I start up the PRM-4220, the Remote freezes at the “Searching for Monitor” screen. Be sure the Remote Ethernet cable is connected firmly to both the Remote and the PRM‐4220 REMOTE port.
