Troubleshooting This section may help you isolate a problem and as a result, eliminate the need to contact technical support, allowing continued productivity. No picture If the U indicator is not lit m Check that the power cord is properly connected. m Check that the U switch is in the “on” position. If the “NO INPUT SIGNAL” message appears on the screen, or if the U indicator is either orange or alternating between green and orange m Try pressing any key on the computer keyboard.
Howling (feedback) is heard m Decrease the volume with . +/– buttons, or turn down the microphone input volume of the sound board. Picture is scrambled m Check your computer manual for the proper display setting. m Check this manual and confirm that the graphic mode and the frequency you are trying to operate 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 display to sync correctly.
Picture bounces or has wavy oscillations m Isolate and eliminate any potential sources of electric or magnetic fields. Common causes for this symptom are electric fans, fluorescent lighting, laser printers, etc. m If you have another display close to this display, increase the distance between them to reduce interference. m Try plugging the display into a different AC outlet, preferably on a different circuit.
A fine horizontal line (wire) is visible m This wire stabilizes the vertically striped Aperture Grille (page 16). This Aperture Grille allows more light to pass through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color and brightness. Hum is heard right after the power is turned on m 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 display is manually degaussed. This is not a malfunction.
