Hinweise
· Aus ergonomischen Gründen wird empfohlen, die
Grundfarbe Blau nicht auf dunklem Untergrund zu
verwenden (schlechte Erkennbarkeit, Augenbelastung bei zu
geringem Zeichenkontrast).
· Aus ergonomischen Gründen sollten nur Darstellungen auf
dunklem Hintergrund bei Vertikalfrequenzen ab
60 Hz (ohne Zeilensprung) benutzt werden.
· Die Konvergenz des Bildes kann sich auf Grund des
Magnetfeldes am Ort der Aufstellung aus der korrekten
Grundeinstellung verändern. Zur Korrektur empfiehlt es sich
deshalb, die Regler an der Frontseite für H STAT und V STAT
so einzustellen, daß die getrennt sichtbaren Farblinien für
Rot, Grün und Blau bei z.B. der Darstellung eines
Buchstabens zur Deckung (Konvergenz) gelangen.
Siehe hierzu auch die Erklärungen zu H STAT und V STAT.

Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Sony Multiscan SE
series monitor!
This monitor incorporates over 25 years of Sony experience
with Trinitron display technology, ensuring excellent
performance and outstanding reliability.
The advanced design of the SE series together with Digital
Multiscan Technology allows it to sync to any video mode
within its wide scan range. In addition, its three factory
preset color modes and three user adjustable color modes
give you unprecedented flexibility in matching on-screen
colors to hard copy print outs. Furthermore, this monitor
features digital controls with OSD (On Screen Display). It
delivers easier adjustment by visualizing your control
statement. All together, it delivers incredible performance
with the quality and support you can expect from Sony.
· Before disconnecting the power cord, wait for at least 30
seconds after turning off the power switch to allow for
the discharging of static electricity on the CRT display
surface.
· After the power has been turned on, the CRT is
demagnetized for approximately 5 seconds. This
generates a strong magnetic field around the bezel,
which may affect the data stored on magnetic tapes or
disks near the bezel. Place such magnetic recording
equipment and tapes/disks apart from this unit.
The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment
and be easily accessible.
Installation
· Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate air
circulation. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) nor near materials (curtains, draperies)
that may block the ventilation holes.
· Do not install the unit near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, nor in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
· Do not place the unit near equipment which generates
magnetism, such as a converter or high voltage power
lines.
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, alkaline cleaner, 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, like a ball point pen or a screw
driver. Otherwise, this type of contact may result in a
scratched picture tube.
Precautions
· Use a proper power cord for your local power supply.
For the customers in U.S.A.
If you do not do this, this monitor will not conform to
mandatory FCC standards.
For the customers in UK
If you use the monitor in UK, please use the supplied
UK cable with UK plug.
Examples of plug shape:
for 100 to 120 V AC
for 220 V to 240 V AC
for 240 V AC only

Notice
To comply with the limits of FCC Class B and IC Class B for
digital device, please attach the supplied video signal cable
for HD15 input or SMF-400 (sold separately) for BNC input.
Furthermore, each cable has ferrite cores on it.
This monitor will sync with any IBM or compatible system
equipped with VGA or greater graphics capability.
Although this monitor will sync to other platforms,
including Macintosh and Power Macintosh system, a cable
adapter is required. Please consult your dealer for advice on
which adapter is suitable for your needs.
Step 1: With the computer switched off, attach the video
signal cable to the monitor (HD15/5 BNC's) and

Preset and User Modes
Using your Monitor
The Multiscan 17seII has factory preset modes for the 10
most popular industry standards for true "plug and play"
capability.
When using a video mode that is not one of the 10 factory
preset modes, some fine tuning may be required to optimize
the display to your preferences. Simply adjust the monitor
according to the preceding adjustment instructions. The
adjustments will be stored automatically and recalled
whenever that mode is used.
A total of 15 user-defined modes can be stored in memory.
If the 16th mode is entered, it will replace the first.
For less common modes, and modes that evolve in the
future, the Digital Multiscan Technology of the Multiscan
17seII will perform all of the complex adjustments necessary
to ensure a high quality picture for any timing in its
frequency range. However, due to the wide variety of video
boards on the market, it may be necessary for the user to
fine tune the vertical/horizontal size and centering.
Recommended horizontal timing conditions
Horizontal sync width duty should be: >4.8% of total
horizontal time.
Horizontal blanking width should be: >3.0 µsec.
Note: For Windows®4) 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.
