Sony GDM-5510 Manual De Usuario

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically 
matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the 
monitor’s memory to provide a high quality picture at the center of 
the screen. For input signals that do not match one of the factory 
preset modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor 
ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in 
the monitor’s frequency range (horizontal: 30 – 130 kHz, vertical: 
48 – 170 Hz). If the picture is adjusted, the adjustment data is 
stored as a user mode and automatically recalled whenever the 
same input signal is received.

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA, 

E

TAR, and NUTEK. If no signal is input to the 

monitor from your computer, the monitor will automatically 
reduce power consumption as shown below.

* When your computer enters power saving mode, the input signal is cut 

and NO SIGNAL appears on the screen before the monitor enters active 
off mode. After a few seconds, the monitor enters power saving mode.

**“Deep sleep” is power saving mode defined by the Environmental 

Protection Agency. 

Before contacting technical support, refer to this section.

The visible lines on your screen especially when the background 
screen color is light (usually white), are normal for the Trinitron 
monitor. This is not a malfunction. These are shadows from the 
damper wires used to stabilize the aperture grille. The aperture 
grille is the essential element that makes a Trinitron picture tube 
unique by allowing more light to reach the screen, resulting in a 
brighter, more detailed picture.

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

If NO SIGNAL appears in section 1

This indicates that no signal is input from the selected connector.
