EEPROM Settings - 1

EEPROM Settings Caution: To prevent data loss or corruption, always save EEPROM settings before you replace the microprocessor board. (See next page.) See Troubleshooting for instructions on saving the EEPROM settings from the old microprocessor board and restoring the settings on the new microprocessor board. If the settings are lost before they can be written to the new EEPROM, the display will be impossible to repair, and the whole display will need to be replaced.

General - 1

General The Symptom Charts included in this chapter will help you diagnose specific symptoms related to your product. Because cures are listed on the charts in the order of most likely solution, try the first cure first. Verify whether or not the product continues to exhibit the symptom. If the symptom persists, try the next cure. (Note: If you have replaced a module, reinstall the original module before you proceed to the next cure.) If you are not sure what the problem is, or if the Symptom Charts do not resolve the problem, refer to the Flowchart for the product family. For additional assistance, contact Apple Technical Support.

First Checklist - 2

First Checklist Important: 54% of the Apple Multiple Scan 17 Display modules returned for repair are found to be fully operational. Read this checklist before you return a module. Prevent needless module replacement and unnecessary time delays. The Apple Multiple Scan 17 Display is not fully compatible with all Macintosh computers and PowerBooks. If you suspect a loss of functionality, especially with the number of screen resolutions available (in Control Panels), check the Tech Info Library or contact Apple Technical Support.

First Checklist - 3

The CRT raster will not always resemble a perfect rectangle. CRT tolerances allow for some distortion. Additional distortion can be caused by magnetized metal objects (desks, file cabinets, etc.). Move the unit to a different location if you notice raster bowing or bent raster edges. Jitter, faint lines, or screen movement can be caused by external interference such as electronic devices and fluorescent lights. Move the unit to another room or building to help determine if external interference is the source of the problem.

First Checklist - 4

A misadjusted screen can mimic the symptoms of deflection board or CRT failures. By performing the adjustment procedures, you might determine if one or more of the adjustments is the cause of the problem. CRTs rarely fail. Needless CRT replacements can be prevented by checking display adjustments, checking the possibility of other defective modules, and accepting small imperfections in screen display. If you have any doubts about whether a CRT is defective, contact Apple Technical Support.

Display Setting Restoration/Connect the Hardware - 5

Display Setting Restoration Each Multiple Scan 17 Display has an EEPROM (located on the microprocessor controller board) that contains adjustment information specific to that monitor. Before you replace the microprocessor board, save this EEPROM information. Use MacTest Pro Display Setting Restore Utility to preserve the monitor adjustment settings. Connect the Hardware There are two ways to connect the hardware to use the MacTest Pro Display Setting Restore Utility: 1 Connect a serial cable (MINI DIN-8) between the malfunctioning display and a separate computer running MacTest Pro. Use either the modem port or the printer port on the computer. (If you use the printer port, AppleTalk

Display Setting Restoration/Connect the Hardware - 6

must be turned off). Also connect a power cable to the display. Advantage: You do not have to shut down the host computer or quit MacTest Pro to complete the repair. Disadvantage: This method requires a separate host computer (with display). 2 Connect the display as usual, using a video cable and power cable. Also, connect a serial cable (MINI DIN-8) between the display and either the modem or printer port on the computer. Advantage: This method lends itself to on-site repair; the display under repair is the only display required. Disadvantage: Since the microprocessor board on the display needs to be replaced, the display may not be working well enough to view this utility in MacTest Pro.

Display Setting Restoration/Save the EEPROM Information - 7

Another disadvantage is that after creating the data file from the old EEPROM, you must quit MacTest Pro and shut down the computer to install the new EEPROM. Save the EEPROM Information To save information from the old EEPROM, create a data file: 1 Start MacTest Pro. 2 Choose “Apple Multiple Scan 17 Display.” 3 Select “Test.” 4 Click “Create File.” Install the Microprocessor Board See Take Apart for instructions on installing the new microprocessor board.

Display Setting Restoration/Restore the EEPROM Information -

After the new microprocessor board is installed, the new EEPROM will have default settings that allow you to read the display, but with difficulty. When the settings from the old EEPROM are transferred to the new EEPROM, the display should be clear and the last color temperature mode chosen restored. Restore the EEPROM Information To download the saved adjustment information to the new EEPROM, 1 Start MacTest Pro. 2 Choose “Apple Multiple Scan 17 Display.” 3 Select “Test.” 4 Click “Write File.”

Display Setting Restoration - 9

Caution: Make certain that you are aware of the following important information about the EEPROM data file. If data is lost or corrupted, you will have to return the display to Apple for repair. • Make sure that the data in the saved file is written back to the display used to create the file. Each display is unique, so writing the wrong data to a display may cause severe adjustment problems. • Make sure that the data file is deleted after writing the data back to the display. This erasure ensures that data from one display is not accidentally written to another. • Do not delete the new data file before it’s written to the new EEPROM. If the file is lost before the data can be written to the new EEPROM, the repair will be impossible to complete and the whole display will need to be returned.

CRT - 10

CRT If the monitor shuts down shortly after powering up, follow this procedure to determine if the CRT is defective: 1 Refer to Take Apart to remove the monitor stand, remove the rear cover, discharge the CRT, remove the EMI shield. 2 With the power off, insert a nonconductive shield (such as a strip of plastic or cardboard) between the CRT/video board and the main deflection board to shield both boards from potential shorts. 3 Note: Twisting, bending, or applying force to the CRT/video board could damage the neck of the CRT. Be sure to pull the CRT/video board straight off the CRT. Loosen the mounting screw on the neck clamp. 4 Without disconnecting any cables, pull the CRT/video board straight off the neck of the CRT (about 3/4 inch) until the board disconnects from the pins.

CRT - 11

5 Rest the CRT/video board on the nonconductive shield. 6 Connect the monitor to a computer. 7 Plug in the power cable and turn on the monitor. • If the power indicator light stays on, the CRT is defective. • If the monitor shuts down immediately or after a few seconds, replace the main deflection board.

Symptom Charts/Raster - 12

Symptom Charts Raster No raster; power indicator light on 1 Ensure monitor’s video cable is properly connected to computer or video card in the computer. 2 Replace main deflection board. Raster edges have color blotches when displaying an all- white screen 1 Degauss monitor with an external degaussing coil. 2 Move monitor to different location and repeat degaussing procedure. Note: This symptom is caused by strong magnetic fields in the environment. Exchanging boards will not cure the symptom. Refer to “First Checklist” in this chapter.

Thin horizontal lines

on screen Displays larger than 15 inches with tron-style CRTs typically have two wires, each about one-quarter to one-third of the way from the top and bottom of the display image. These supporting wires, which are thinner than a human hair, stabilize the aperture grill against shocks. The lines are common to all tron- style displays and are not screen defects. The lines cannot be adjusted out or eliminated by repairing or replacing modules in the display.
