Frequently Asked Questions - CPDE500 SONY

How to clean the monitor screen?

Use a soft cloth. If you use a glass cleaner, make sure it does not contain antistatic solution or similar additives, as they may scratch the screen coating. Never use abrasive objects or solvents such as alcohol or benzene.

What to do if the screen shows no image?

First check that the power cord is plugged in and the power switch is ON. If the power indicator is orange or blinking, the monitor is likely in power saving mode: press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse. Also check that the video cable is properly connected and that the pins are not bent. If the message 'NO VIDEO INPUT' is displayed, ensure the computer is on and the graphics card is firmly seated.

How to adjust brightness and contrast?

Move the control stick in any direction to display the BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST menu. Then move it up or down (↓/↑) to adjust brightness, and left or right (←/→) to adjust contrast. The menu auto-disappears after about 3 seconds.

How to manually degauss the screen?

Access the OPTION menu by pressing the center of the control stick, select the ⊕ (DEGAUSS) icon with the stick up or down, then move it to the right (→). Degaussing lasts about 2 seconds. If necessary, wait 20 minutes before a second cycle.

Why do fine lines appear on the screen?

These lines are the shadow of the damper wires used to stabilize the aperture grille of Trinitron tubes. They are more visible on a bright background and are not a malfunction. They are a normal characteristic of Trinitron technology.

How to lock the controls to prevent accidental adjustments?

In the OPTION menu, select the Ⓑ (MENU LOCK) icon and set it to ON. Only the power switch and EXIT and MENU LOCK settings remain operational. To unlock, repeat the procedure and set to OFF.

What are the power saving modes?

The monitor reduces power consumption in three stages: 1) standby (≤ 15 W, alternating green and orange indicator), 2) sleep (≤ 15 W, alternating green and orange indicator), 3) deep sleep (approx. 1 W, steady orange indicator). The modes comply with VESA DPMS, ENERGY STAR and NUTEK standards.

How to reset the monitor settings?

Use the RESET button. To reset a single parameter, select it in the menu and press RESET. To reset all settings for the current input signal, press RESET when no menu is displayed. For a full reset of all signals, hold down RESET for at least two seconds.

What to do if the image is blurry or distorted?

Adjust brightness and contrast. If the image is distorted, use the GEOM (geometry) menus to correct rotation, shape, or edge curvature. If moiré patterns appear, enable the MOIRE CANCEL function in the SCREEN menu and adjust the setting. If the problem persists, degauss the screen.

How to change the menu language?

Press the center of the control stick to display the main MENU. Select LANG by moving the stick, then press again. Choose the desired language from the options (French, English, German, etc.) by moving the stick up or down. To exit, press the center of the stick twice.

Precautions

Warning on power connections

- Use the supplied power cord. If you use a different power cord, be sure that it is compatible with your local power supply. For the customers in the U.S.A.

If you do not use the appropriate cord, this monitor will not conform to mandatory FCC standards.

Example of plug types

for 100 to 120 V AC

for 200 to 240 V AC

- Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30 seconds after turning off the power to allow the static electricity on the screen's surface to discharge.

• After the power is turned on, the screen is demagnetized (degaussed) for about 2 seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field around the screen which may affect data stored on magnetic tapes and disks placed near the monitor. Be sure to keep magnetic recording equipment, tapes, and disks away from the monitor.

The equipment should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.

Installation

Do not install the monitor in the following places:

- on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies, etc.) that may block the ventilation holes

- near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight

• in a place subject to severe temperature changes

- in a place subject to mechanical vibration or shock

• on an unstable surface

- near equipment which generates magnetism, such as a transformer or high voltage power lines

- near or on an electrically charged metal surface

Maintenance

- Clean the screen with a soft cloth. If you use a glass cleaning liquid, do not use any type of cleaner containing an anti-static solution or similar additive as this may scratch the screen's coating.

- Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with sharp or abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or screwdriver. This type of contact may result in a scratched picture tube.

- Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent, such as alcohol or benzene.

Transportation

When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use the original carton and packing materials.

Technical Features

Preset and user modes

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically 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 – 109 kHz, vertical: 48 – 160 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.

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 performance.

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.

Power mode	Power consumption	(power) indicator
normal operation	≤ 145 W green
1 standby ≤ 15 W green and orange		alternate
2 suspend (sleep)*	≤ 15 W green and orange	alternate
3 active off** (deep sleep)*	Approx. 1 W orange
power off 0 W off

* "Sleep" and "deep sleep" are power saving modes defined by the Environmental Protection Agency.

** When your computer enters a power saving mode, the input signal is cut and NO INPUT SIGNAL appears on the screen. After a few seconds, the monitor enters a power saving mode.

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 are normal for the Trinitron monitor and are not a malfunction. These are shadows from the damper wires used to stabilize the aperture grille and are most noticeable when the screen's background is light (usually white). The aperture 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.
