    • J
      Jeffrey CummingsAug 30, 2025
      If the color on your Sun Microsystems Monitor is not uniform, try to degauss the monitor. If you place equipment that generates a magnetic field, such as a speaker, near the monitor, or if you change the direction the monitor faces, color may lose uniformity. You can also adjust the landing.

    Why does my Sun Microsystems GDM-5510 hum when I turn it on?
    • B
      Bryan NunezSep 3, 2025
      If you hear a hum right after turning on your Sun Microsystems Monitor, this is the sound of the auto-degauss cycle. When the power is turned on, the monitor is automatically degaussed for a few seconds. If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result.
