Default Service mode for Dell Ultrascan P991

If it is like many Dell monitors made by Sony:
1. It has a failure that needs repaired. No need to screw with
adjustments. Most competant techs with experience doing monitor
repairs will have no trouble narrowing down any failure like this,
usually without a schematic or service manual
2. If it has adjustments, they are available with a special DAS
alignment software and interface that is difficult and relatively
expensive to get a hold of it you are not an authorized servicer.

Have you called Dell to see what it will cost to have it repaired yet?

All-this monitor has excessive brite, cannot locate any adjustments
for G2

on mainboard or crt board. only adjust available is h-focus and
v-focus on fbt. any idea on how to access more controls, possibly
service mode thru front panel user controls, etc? any help will be
appreciated. TIA-D_A



no, why would i be posting to this group, soliciting advice from competent
techs, if i was planning on having dell repair it? i understand that no
amount of adjustment is a substitute for fixing root cause... however i
have seen more than 1 monitor that has been so far out of adjustment that
it may appear to have failed... just asking for a little advice, all techs
have to start somewhere, on their journey to someday be competent ;-)
