Notes

Many of Sony's PC monitors from this generation include an hour counter. To access it, turn on the monitor with no input signal and hold control button to the left for a short time.

A small panel below the VGA cable can be removed to provide access to the serial pins for WinDAS calibration.

This monitor includes digital convergence controls, accessible through the OSD menu.

Brightness & Color Issues

PC Monitors made by Sony often have drifted out of calibration. This can result in poor color balance, excessive brightness, or other issues. These monitors often have an extremely bright picture, sometimes with a green tint. This cannot always be corrected with the OSD controls, and the monitor's firmware settings must be adjusted using WinDAS, Sony's proprietary calibration software.
