Version Differences

Overview

The Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display and Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display Rev. B have the same overall appearance. However, the Rev. B version offers improved performance and better screen resolution.
To distinguish the two versions, check the last three digits of the serial number. The serial number for the Rev. B version ends in one of the following:
• 5B4
• 5J2
• 5JE
• 5JF

Monitor Distortion

Overview

All large-screen monitors are susceptible to distortions caused by environmental conditions. These distortions are usually not visible on monitors with smaller screens.
Important:

Common environmentally caused distortions are shown on this and the following cards. Always check first for environmental causes before attempting to exchange or adjust a monitor with a distorted raster.

Environmental Influences
The following environmental conditions may distort the raster:
• Proximity to metal objects, such as metal desks, file cabinets, and bookshelves. Metal objects affect the earth’s magnetic field. Earth magnetism usually distorts only the edges of the screen.
• Fluorescent lights, other monitors, or electronic appliances such as coffee makers and copy machines. These objects cause dynamic raster distortion, that is, movement or jitter of the image.

Note:
go ahead and adjust it using the user controls. However, keep in mind that if you then move the monitor you may need to readjust the centering controls.
Before adjusting a monitor with a distorted raster, try the following:
• Swivel or move the monitor, or
• Remove the monitor from the building and recheck it in another location.

If the display changes (for better or worse) when you move it to another location, the environment is the source of the problem. Relocate your monitor or remove the distortion­causing object.
If the display does not change when you move it to another location, continue troubleshooting the problem (refer to Troubleshooting).

Troubleshooting General - 1

General

The Symptom Charts included in this chapter will help you diagnose specific symptoms related to your product. Because cures are listed on the charts in the order of most likely solution, try the first cure first. Verify whether or not the product continues to exhibit the symptom. If the symptom persists, try the next cure. (Note: If you have replaced a module, reinstall the original module before you proceed to the next cure.)
If you are not sure what the problem is, or if the Symptom Charts do not resolve the problem, refer to the Flowchart for the product family.
For additional assistance, contact Apple Technical Support.
Troubleshooting First Checklist - 2

First Checklist

Important:
modules returned for repair are found to be fully operational. Read this checklist before you return a module. Prevent needless module replacement and unnecessary time delays.
Over 60% of the Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display
The Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display is not fully compatible with all Macintosh computers and PowerBooks.
If you suspect a loss of functionality, especially with the number of screen resolutions available (in Control Panels), check the Tech Info Library or contact Apple Technical Support.
Troubleshooting First Checklist - 3
The CRT raster will not always resemble a perfect rectangle.
CRT tolerances allow for some distortion. Additional distortion can be caused by magnetized metal objects (desks, file cabinets, etc.). Move the unit to a different location if you notice raster bowing or bent raster edges.
Jitter, faint lines, or screen movement can be caused by external interference such as electronic devices and fluorescent lights.
Move the unit to another room or building to help determine if external interference is the source of the problem.
Troubleshooting First Checklist - 4
A misadjusted screen can mimic the symptoms of deflection board or CRT failures.
By performing the adjustment procedures, you might determine if one or more of the adjustments is the cause of the problem.
CRTs rarely fail.
Needless CRT replacements can be prevented by checking display adjustments, checking the possibility of other defective modules, and accepting small imperfections in screen display.
If you have any doubts about whether a CRT is defective, contact Apple Technical Support.
Troubleshooting Display Setting Restoration/Connect the Hardware - 5

Display Setting Restoration

Each Multiple Scan 20 Display has an EEPROM (located on the microprocessor controller board) that contains adjustment information specific to that monitor. Before you replace the microprocessor board, save this EEPROM information.
Use MacTest Pro Display Setting Restore Utility to preserve the monitor adjustment settings.

Connect the Hardware

There are two ways to connect the hardware to use the MacTest Pro Display Setting Restore Utility: 1 Connect a serial cable (MINI DIN-8) between the
malfunctioning display and a separate computer running MacTest Pro. Use either the modem port or the printer port on the computer. (If you use the printer port, AppleTalk

the old EEPROM, you must quit MacTest Pro and shut down the computer to install the new EEPROM.

Save the EEPROM Information

To save information from the old EEPROM, create a data file:
1 Start MacTest Pro. 2 Choose “Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display.” 3 Select “Test.” 4 Click “Create File.”

Install the Microprocessor Board

See Take Apart for instructions on installing the new microprocessor board.
Troubleshooting Display Setting Restoration/Restore the EEPROM Information -
After the new microprocessor board is installed, the new EEPROM will have default settings that allow you to read the display, but with difficulty. When the settings from the old EEPROM are transferred to the new EEPROM, the display should be clear and the last color temperature mode chosen restored.

Restore the EEPROM Information

To download the saved adjustment information to the new EEPROM,
1 Start MacTest Pro. 2 Choose “Apple Multiple Scan 20 Display.” 3 Select “Test.” 4 Click “Write File.”
