The '''Sony PVM-1954Q''' is a 19-inch multi-standard professional video monitor introduced in 1994. It is the large sibling of the 13-inch [[Sony PVM-1354Q|PVM-1354Q]] and PVM-1351Q, sharing their manual, control layout and connector complement.<ref name="oi">Sony PVM-1954Q/PVM-1354Q/PVM-1351Q Operating Instructions, Sony Corporation. https://archive.org/details/sony_PVM-1954Q_1354Q_1351Q_Operating_Instructions.PDF</ref>

Its HR (High Resolution) Trinitron tube — Sony part [[M49KGH20X]], 0.4 mm aperture grille pitch, 90-degree deflection<ref name="crtdb">[https://crtdatabase.com/crts/sony/sony-pvm-1954q Sony PVM-1954Q], CRT Database.</ref> — resolves more than 600 TV lines at the centre of the picture and carries SMPTE-C phosphor.<ref name="oi" /> Convergence is specified at 0.7 mm typical in the central area and 1.3 mm at the periphery, and high-voltage regulation at 4.0 %.<ref name="oi" /> Video bandwidth is 6.0 MHz (−3 dB) on composite and 10.0 MHz on RGB.<ref name="oi" />

Colour system selection across PAL, SECAM, NTSC and NTSC 4.43 is automatic, and an NTSC comb filter is fitted.<ref name="oi" />

== Features ==

The front panel provides blue-only mode, underscan (3 % underscan against 7 % overscan in normal scan), horizontal/vertical delay, external sync selection, and automatic degaussing on power-up alongside a manual DEGAUSS button. On-screen menus in five languages cover colour temperature — two fixed presets plus a USER setting adjustable from 3200 K to 10000 K, factory set to 6500 K — and chroma setup.<ref name="oi" />

All video inputs are loop-through pairs whose internal 75-ohm termination releases automatically when a cable is plugged into the corresponding output.<ref name="oi" /> The RGB/COMPONENT BNC trio takes either analog RGB or Betacam R-Y/Y/B-Y component, syncing to the green/Y channel or to a reference on the separate EXT SYNC IN connector.<ref name="oi" />

A 20-pin REMOTE connector carries tally and remote-control signals.<ref name="oi" /> An optional SDI kit adds a serial digital input and raises power consumption from about 115 W to about 125 W.<ref name="oi" /> An SLR-103 bracket mounts the monitor in a standard EIA 19-inch rack.<ref name="oi" />
