Monitor Troubleshooting
No picture
• Display card should be completely seated in its slot.
• Power Button and computer power switch should be in the ON
position.
• Signal cable should be completely connected to display card/
computer.
• Check connector for bent or pushed-in pins.
Image is scrolling or unstable
• Signal cable should be completely attached to the computer.
• Check pin assignments and signal timings of the monitor and your
display card with respect to recommended timings and pin
assignments.
• If the Macintosh cable adapter is used, check for proper connection or
make sure the display card is Macintosh compatible and that the card
is properly seated in the computer.
LED on monitor is not lit (no green or orange colour can be seen)
• Power Switch should be in the ON position and power cord should be
connected.
Picture is fuzzy or colour looks blotchy
• If the picture is fuzzy, adjust the Moiré Canceler control. If the colour
looks blotchy, adjust the Brightness,Contrast or GlobalSync controls,
or use the EdgeLock control to change modes.
• Access the Degauss Control through OSM controls. Activate the
Degauss Control.
CAUTION: A minimum interval of 20 minutes should elapse before
the Degauss Control is used a second time when not
switching between modes.
Picture bounces or a wavy pattern is present in the picture
• Move electrical devices that may be causing electrical interference
away from the monitor.
Edges of the display image are not square
• Use the OSM Geometry Controls to straighten the edges.
• If possible, position the front of the monitor facing east.
English-18

Display image is not centered, too small, or too large
• Use the OSM Size and Position Controls to adjust the image.
Thin horizontal lines appear on your screen
• Thin horizontal lines are normal for an aperture grille CRT 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).
Black vertical lines are visible on the screen
• Thin vertical black lines on one or both sides of the screen. This minor
condition is caused by grille element overlap which can occur during
shipping.
• Position an open white window over the affected area of the screen
and maximize the brightness and contrast controls. This will cause
localized heating of the overlap which will clear in a few minutes. Be
sure to readjust the brightness and contrast controls back to the
normal viewing level after this procedure.

TCO’99
Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’99
approved and labeled product! Your choice has
provided you with a product developed for
professional use. Your purchase has also contributed
to reducing the burden on the environment and also
to the further development of environmentally
adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established
method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other
electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful
substances are used both in the products and during the manufacturing.
Since it has not been possible for the majority of electronics equipment
to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially damaging
substances sooner or later enter Nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the
work (Internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of
conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the
environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive
waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in
offices consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left
running continuously.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’99 scheme which
provides for international and environmental labelling of personal
computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the
TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation)
and Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy
Administration).

The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment,
ergonomics, usability, emission of electrical and magnetic fields, energy
consumption and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and
use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs
(freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must
be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an
environmental plan which must be adhered to in each country where the
company implements its operational policy. The energy requirements
include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period
of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or
more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be
reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example,
in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and
visual ergonomics and good usability.
Environmental Requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires,
casings and housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire. Up to thirty
percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant
substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride and these
are related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs, which are
suspected to give rise to severe health effects, including reproductive
damage in fisheating birds and mammals, due to the bioaccumulative*
processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and
researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.
TCO’ 99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than
25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound
chlorine and bromine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit
boards since no substitutes are available.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and
capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses,
causes lead poisoning.
TCO’ 99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement
has yet been developed.

Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the
colourgenerating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO’ 99 requirement states that batteries, the colourgenerating layers of
display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not
contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches, Mercury
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO’ 99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any Mercury.
It also demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or
electronics components associated with the display unit.
CFCs (freons)
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards.
CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the
stratosphere, causing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light
with consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).
The relevant TCO’ 99 requirement; Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be
used during the manufacturing and assembly of the product or its
packaging.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within
living organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are
Bioaccumulative.
