Getting started  
Warning on power connection  
Precautions  
• Use an appropriate power cord for your local power  
supply.  
Installation  
• Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30  
seconds after turning off the power to allow the static  
electricity on the CRT display surface to discharge.  
• After the power has been turned on, the CRT is  
demagnetized (degaussed) for about 5 seconds. This  
generates a strong magnetic field around the metal frame,  
which may affect the data stored on magnetic tapes and  
disks near the bezel. Place magnetic recording equipment,  
tapes and disks away from this monitor.  
• Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate air  
circulation. Do not place the monitor on surfaces (rugs,  
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that  
may block the ventilation holes.  
• Do not install the monitor near heat sources such as  
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct  
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.  
• Do not place the monitor near equipment which generates  
magnetism, such as a transformer or high voltage power  
lines.  
The outlet should be installed near the equipment  
and be easily accessible.  
Maintenance  
• 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 benzine.  
• 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 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.  
Transportation  
When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use  
the original carton and packing materials.  
Use of the Tilt-Swivel  
With the tilt-swivel, this monitor can be adjusted to the  
desired angle within 180° horizontally and 20° vertically.  
To turn the monitor vertically and horizontally, hold it at  
the bottom with both hands as illustrated below.

Preset and User Modes  
The monitor has factory preset modes for the 9 (CPD-  
100GS) or 10 (CPD-200GS) most popular industry standards  
for true “plug and play” capability.  
The Graphic Picture Enhancement (GPE) button allows you  
to automatically change the characteristics of the picture on  
the screen to match the use of your monitor. Simply press  
the GPE button to scroll between the three modes.  
Recommended horizontal and vertical timing  
conditions  
Horizontal sync width duty should be 1.0 µsec of total horizontal  
time.  
1 Turn on the monitor and computer.  
2 Press the GPE button to set the mode.  
Horizontal blanking width should be 3.0 µsec for CPD-200GS.  
Horizontal blanking width should be 3.6 µsec for CPD-100GS.  
Vertical blanking width should be 500 µsec for both CPD-100GS  
and CPD-200GS.

Technical Features  
Displaying the monitor’s  
information  
Damper Wires  
When viewing a white background, very thin horizontal  
lines are visible on the screen as shown below. These lines  
are damper wires.  
The Trinitron tube has a vertically striped aperture grille  
inside. The aperture grille allows more light to pass  
through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color  
and brightness.  
You can display the model name, serial number and year of  
manufacture using the monitor‘s INFORMATION OSD.  
Press and hold the MENU button for 5 seconds.  
The INFORMATION OSD appears.  
These damper wires are attached to the aperture grille to  
prevent vibration of the aperture grille and keep the screen  
image constantly stable.

Power Saving Function  
This monitor has three modes of reduced power  
consumption. By sensing the absence of video signal  
coming from the computer, it reduces power consumption  
as follows.  
Plug & Play  
This monitor complies with the DDC 1 and DDC2B  
Display Data Channel (DDC) standards of VESA.  
When a DDC1 host system is connected, the monitor  
synchronizes with the V. CLK in accordance with the VESA  
standards and outputs the EDID (Extended Display  
Identification Data) to the data line.

Warning Messages  
“OUT OF SCAN RANGE” indicates that the input signal  
is not supported by the monitor’s specifications.  
If there is something wrong with the input signal, one of the  
following messages appears.  
“NO INPUT SIGNAL” indicates that no signal is input.

To solve these problems, see “Troubleshooting” below.

• Ensure that no pins are bent or pushed in the HD15 video input connector.  
• Check that the video board is completely seated in the proper bus slot.  
If the “OUT OF SCAN  
RANGE” message appears on  
the screen  
• Check that the video frequency range is within that specified for the monitor.  
Horizontal: 30 – 70 kHz (CPD-100GS), 30 – 85 kHz (CPD-200GS)  
Vertical: 50 – 120 Hz  
Refer to your computer’s instruction manual to adjust the video frequency range.  
• If you are using a video signal cable adapter, check that it is the correct one.  
If no message is displayed  
and the u indicator is green  
or flashing orange  
• See “Self-diagnosis Function” (page 20).  
Picture is scrambled  
• Check your graphics board manual for the proper monitor setting.  
• Check this manual and confirm that the graphics mode and the frequency you are  
trying to operate at is supported. 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.  
Color is not uniform  
• Degauss the monitor (page 13).  
If you place equipment which generates a magnetic field, such as a loudspeaker, near  
the monitor, or you change the direction of the monitor, color may lose uniformity.  
The degauss function demagnetizes the metal frame of the CRT to obtain a neutral  
field for uniform color reproduction. If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a  
minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result.  
You cannot adjust the  
monitor with the buttons on  
the front panel  
• If the control lock function is set to on, set it to off using the OPTION OSD (page 14).

If you place equipment which generates a magnetic field, such as a loudspeaker, near  
the monitor, or you change the direction of the monitor, color may lose uniformity.  
The degauss function demagnetizes the metal frame of the CRT to obtain a neutral  
field for uniform color reproduction. If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a  
minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result.  
• If red or blue shadows appear along the edges of images, adjust the convergence  
(pages 12 – 13).  
• If the moire is cancelled, the picture may become fuzzy. Decrease the moire  
cancellation effect (pages 12 – 13).  
• Isolate and eliminate any potential sources of electric or magnetic fields. Common  
causes for this symptom are electric fans, fluorescent lighting or laser printers.  
• If you have another monitor close to this monitor, increase the distance between them  
to reduce the interference.  
• Try plugging the monitor into a different AC outlet, preferably on a different circuit.  
• Try the monitor on a different computer in a different room.

• Set the refresh rate on the computer to obtain the best possible picture by referring to  
your computer’s manual.

• Eliminate the use of video cable extensions and/or video switch boxes if this symptom  
occurs. Excessive cable length or a weak connection can produce this symptom.  
Wavy or elliptical (moire)  
pattern is visible  
• Cancel the moire (pages 12 – 13).  
The moire may be modified depending on the connected computer.  
• Due to the relationship between resolution, monitor dot pitch and the pitch of some  
image patterns, certain screen backgrounds sometimes show moire. Change your  
desktop pattern.  
• These wires stabilize the vertically striped aperture grille (page 17). This aperture grille  
allows more light to pass through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color  
and brightness.  
Two fine horizontal lines  
(wires) are visible  
Hum is heard right after the  
power is turned on  
• When the power is turned on, the auto-degauss cycle is activated. While the auto-  
degauss cycle is activated, a hum may be heard. The same hum is heard when the  
monitor is manually degaussed. This is not a malfunction.  
• If the problem persists, call your authorized Sony dealer from a location near your monitor.  
• Note the model name and the serial number of your monitor. Also note the make and name of your video board.
