The '''Sony PVM-14M2E''' is a 14-inch multiformat Trinitron professional video monitor and the AEP (European) member of Sony's M-series, built on chassis SCC-G62H-A.<ref name="sm">Sony PVM-14M2U/14M4U/14M2E/14M4E/14M2A/14M4A Service Manual (SP0401), Sony Corporation. https://archive.org/details/sony-pvm-14m-2u-service-manual</ref> It is the standard-resolution model of the pair sold alongside the 800-line PVM-14M4E, which uses the same cabinet and connector panel but an HR Trinitron tube and SMPTE-C or EBU phosphors.<ref name="sm" />

The 14M2E's Trinitron tube carries P-22 phosphors and resolves more than 600 TV lines at the centre of the picture.<ref name="sm" /> Colour temperature is switchable between D65 and D93, plus a USER setting adjustable from 3,200 K to 10,000 K; the factory setting is D65.<ref name="sm" /> Video bandwidth is 10 MHz ±3 dB on both the line (Y) and RGB paths, with aperture correction adjustable from 0 dB to +6 dB and an AFC time constant of 1.0 ms.<ref name="sm" /> Normal scan is 7% overscan and the underscan mode gives 5% underscan of the CRT effective screen area. Convergence is specified at 0.4 mm in the central area and 0.5 mm at the periphery, with high-voltage regulation of 3.5%.<ref name="sm" />

== Features ==

The monitor accepts NTSC, PAL, SECAM and NTSC 4.43 and selects the appropriate colour system automatically.<ref name="sm" /> A comb filter engages on NTSC composite input for more accurate Y/C separation, reducing cross-colour and cross-luminance, and a beam-current feedback circuit holds white balance stable as the tube ages.<ref name="sm" />

Service functions include an underscan mode — during which dark RGB scanning lines from an internal test signal may appear along the top edge — a horizontal/vertical delay mode that exposes both sync intervals at once, and a blue-only mode that drives all three cathodes from the blue signal for chroma and phase adjustment.<ref name="sm" />

The BNC inputs marked with the loop-through symbol terminate internally into 75 ohms and release the termination automatically when a cable is connected to the matching output.<ref name="sm" /> A 20-pin parallel REMOTE connector is fitted for external control and tally, and a mating cable is supplied along with the AC power cord, AC plug holder and a tally label.<ref name="sm" />

Unlike the 120 V-only PVM-14M2U sold in the USA and Canada, the European 14M2E has a universal 100–240 V AC supply.<ref name="sm" />
