Picture flickers, bounces,
oscillates, or is scrambled

Check these items

• Check that the (!) (poweri switch is in the ’on" position.

• Check that the video signal cable is properly connected and all plugs are firmly seated in
their sockets (page 6).

• Check that the HD 15 video input connector's pins are not bent or pushed in.

■Problems caused by the connected computer or other equipment

• The computer is in power saving mode. Try pressing any key on the computer keyboard.

• Check that the computer's power is "on."

• Check that the graphic board is completely seated in the proper bus slot.

■Problems caused by the connected computer or other equipment

• Check that the video frequency range is within that specified for the monitor. If you
replaced an old monitor with this monitor, reconnect the old monitor and adjust the
frequency range to the following.
Horizontal; 30-70 kHz
Vertical: 48-120 Hz

• Use the Self-diagnosis function (page 16).

• If you replaced an old monitor with this monitor, reconnect the old monitor and do the
following. Install the Windows Monitor Information Disk (page 7) and select this monitor
(“CPD-1 lOGS” or “CPD-210GS”) from among the Sony monitors in the Windows 95/98
monitor selection screen.

• Check that the Macintosh adapter (not supplied) and the video signal cable are properly
connected (page 6).

• Isolate and eliminate any piotential sources of electric or magnetic fields such as other

monitors, laser printers, electric fans, fluorescent lighting, or televisions.

• Move the monitor away from power lines or place a magnetic shield near the monitor.

• Try plugging the monitor into a different AC outlet, preferably on a different circuit.

• Try niming the monitor 90° to the left or right.

Picture is fuzzy

■Problems caused by the connected computer or other equipment

• Check your graphics board manual for the proper monitor setting.

• Confirm that the graphics mode (VESA. Macintosh 16" Color, etc.) and the frequency of
the input signal are supported by this monitor (Appendix). Even if the frequency is within
the proper range, some video boards may have a sync pulse that is too narrow for the

monitor to sync correctly.

• Adjust the computer’s refresh rate (vertical frequency) to obtain the best possible piemre.

• Adjust the contrast and brightness (page 9).

• Degauss the monitor* (page 12).

• Decrease the moire cancellation effect (page 12).

Technical Features

Preset and user modes

When the monitor receives an input signal, ifrautomatically
matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the
monitor's memory to provide a high quality picture at the center
of the screen, (See Appendix for a list of the factory preset

modes.) For input signals that do not match one of the factory
preset modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor
ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in

the monitor s frequency range (horizontal: 30 - 70 kHz. vertical;
48 - 120 Hz). If the picture is adjusted, the adjustment data is

stored as a user mode and automatically recalled whenever the

same input signal is received.

Troubleshooting

Before contacting technical support, refer to this section.

If thin lines appear on your screen (damper wires)

The lines you are experiencing on your screen ar ormal for the

Trinitron monitor and are not a malfunction. T e are shadows
from the damper wires used to stabilize the ape :re grille and are
most noticeable when the screen's backgrour... ,s light (usually
white). The apenure grille is the essential element that makes a
Trinitron picture tube unique by allowing more light to reach the
screen, resulting in a brighter, more detailed picture.

Note for Windows users

For Windows users, check your video board manual or the utility

program which comes with your graphic board and select the

highest available refresh rate to maximize monitor perl'ormance.

Power saving function

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA.

ENERGY STAR, and NUTEK. If the monitor is connected to a
computer or video graphics board that is DPMS (Display Power

Management Signaling) compliant, the monitor will
automatically reduce power consumption in three stages as shown
below.

Symptom

Picture is ghosting

Check these items

• Eliminate the use of video cable extensions and/or video switch boxes.

• Check that all plugs are firmly seated in their sockets.

Picture is not centered or sized
properly

• Adjust the size or centenng (page 10). Note that some video modes do not fill the screen
to the edges.

Edges of the image are curved • Adjust the shape of the picture (page 10).
Wavy or elliptical pattern (moire)

is visible

• Cancel the moire (page 12).

■Problems caused by the connected computer or other equipment

• Change your desktop pattern.

Color is not uniform

• Degauss the monitor* (page 12). If you place equipment that generates a magnetic field,
such as a speaker, near the monitor, or if you change the direction the monitor faces, color
may lose uniformity.

White does not look white • Adjust the color temperature (page 11 ).

A hum is heard right after the
power is turned on

* If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result. A humming noise may be heard, but this is not a

malfunction.

• This is the sound of the auto-degauss cycle. When the power is turned on. the monitor is
automatically degaussed for 5 seconds.
