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.

Recommended horizontal and vertical timing
conditions
Horizontal sync width duty should be 1.0 µsec of total horizontal
time.
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.

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.

GPE

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.

Each time you press the GPE button, the mode appears on
the screen and changes as follows.

STANDARD MODE

PRESENTATION MODE

GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE

The STANDARD MODE is ideal for spreadsheets, word
processing, and other text oriented applications.

The PRESENTATION MODE is useful for presentation
programs that require vivid colors.

The GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE gives movies and games
enhanced visual appeal by increasing the sharpness and
brightness.

The selected mode indication appears on the screen for
about 3 seconds.

If the screen appears too white, adjust the color temperature
as explained in “Using the COLOR On-screen Display” on
page 11.

Note
The PRESENTATION MODE and GRAPHICS/VIDEO MODE may
produce ghost images when displaying text oriented applications.
These modes change the brightness of the picture dynamically
according to changes in moving pictures. If ghost images appear,
set the GPE to STANDARD MODE.

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.
These damper wires are attached to the aperture grille to
prevent vibration of the aperture grille and keep the screen
image constantly stable.

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.
When a DDC2B host system is connected, the monitor
automatically switches to the appropriate standard.

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 includes the model name, serial
number and manufactured year.

The OSD automatically disappears after about 30 seconds.

INFORMATION

SER NO : 1234567

MODEL : CPD   100GS  

MANUFACTURED : 1997

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.

Note
If the video signal cable is not connected, the “NO INPUT
SIGNAL” message (page 18) appears.  After 30 seconds, the power
saving function automatically puts the monitor into the active-off
mode and the u indicator lights up orange. Once the horizontal
and vertical sync signals are detected, the monitor automatically
resumes its normal operation mode.

• Adjust the size or centering (page 9).
• Some video modes do not fill the screen to the edges. This problem tends to occur with

certain video boards.

• Adjust the geometry (page 10).

• Adjust the convergence (pages 12 – 13).

• Adjust the contrast and brightness (page 8).
• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

If there is something wrong with the input signal, one of the
following messages appears.

“OUT OF SCAN RANGE” indicates that the input signal
is not supported by the monitor’s specifications.

“NO INPUT SIGNAL” indicates that no signal is input.

To solve these problems, see “Troubleshooting” below.

This section may help you isolate the cause of a problem and as a result, eliminate the need to contact technical support.

If the u indicator  is not lit

If the “NO INPUT SIGNAL”
message appears on the
screen, or if the u indicator is
either orange or alternating
between green and orange

If the “OUT OF SCAN
RANGE” message appears on
the screen

If no message is displayed
and the u indicator is green
or flashing orange

INFORMATION

OUT  OF  SCAN  RANGE

• Check that the power cord is properly connected.
• Check that the u (power) switch is in the “on” position.

• Try pressing any key on the computer keyboard.
• Check that your computer power switch is in the “on” position.
• Check that the video signal cable is properly connected and all plugs are firmly seated

in their sockets.

• 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.

• 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.

• See “Self-diagnosis Function” (page 20).

• 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.

• 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.

• If the control lock function is set to on, set it to off using the OPTION OSD (page 14).
