The CPD-1201/9000 is a high resolution character display designed for use with microcomputers, character generators or videotex units having either analog or digital RGB output.

WARNING

To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.

Dangerously high voltages are present inside the unit.

Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

INFORMATION

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures :

Reorient the receiving antenna

Relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver Move the equipment away from the receiver

Plug the equipment into a different outlet so that equipment and receiver are on different branch circuits.

If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful:

"How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems". This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402, Stock No. 004-000-00345-4.

A shielded interface cable such as the SMF-series recommended on page 5 must be used with this equipment.

FEATURES

Super Fine Pitch Trinitron character display with a dark (CPD-1201: anti-glaring dark) screen. An RGB terminal which allows equipment with either analog or digital RGB output to be connected.

PRECAUTIONS

On safety

•Operate the unit only on 120 V ac, 60 Hz.

•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualifed personnel before operating it any further.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for several days.

•To disconnect the ac power cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

On installation

•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up.

Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.

•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.

On cleaning

To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleansers since these will damage the cabinet. As a safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.

On repacking

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container in which to transport the unit. When shipping the unit to another location, repack it as illustrated on the carton.

If you have any questions about this unit, contact your Sony service facility.

V HOLD (vertical hold) control

If the display rolls vertically, adjust this control until the display stabilizes.

G RGB input selector

Depending on the RGB output of the equipment you have connected, set this switch to one of the following 3 positions.

  • ANALOG: For microcomputers and videotex units having analog RGB output, such as the Sony SMC-70, SMC-70G microcomputer.
  • DIGITAL 1: For microcomputers having digital RGB output with positive sync signals, such as the IBM PC, IBM PC XT and IBM PCjr.
  • DIGITAL 2: For microcomputers having digital RGB output with negative sync signals, such as the NEC PC-8001A.
AC power input connector

Connect to the AC outlet with the supplied AC power cord.

RGB IN (input) connector (8-pin)

Allows a microcomputer, a character generator or a videotex unit having either analog or digital output to be connected.

Refer to pages 4-5.
