Will this do 15khz?

Post by Hatta »

I'm looking at a couple of video monitors on CL. I found the manual online, it's available here. It looks like a very capable little monitor, but I can't find any information on the sync frequencies it takes. Can someone check out that manual and see if you can figure out if it will do 15khz?

The only info I can find is this:

Synchronization AFC Time Constant: 1msec

I'm not sure what that means.

I'd recommend either the Sony PVM20m4u or PVM20m2u. I use that model and its a great size.

Be sure to check it out thoroughly first though. These have been know to have issues with one capacitor in particular going bad that causes image distortion. A good way to check is to click the "underscan" button and look at the top of the screen. If you see nothing or straight across RGB lines, you're OK. However, if you see curved or distorted RGB lines, don't buy it, means the cap is drying out. It may last you a couple of years or not.

All he's got are 13" monitors. Which, IIRC, is about the size of the commodore 1702 or 1084. So that's just about right I think. If it can do 15khz, it'll be perfect.

Thanks for the tip. I'll be sure to bring a source to check them out with.
