The JC-4101P3A is perhaps the first true multisync monitor. The APC-H4311 appears to be exactly the same monitor but with a model number to match the NEC APC IV PowerMate 1 desktop system unit it was paired with.

Known Issues

Symptom or Problem Encountered

Causes

  • Electrolytic capacitor failures due to normal aging.

Solutions

  • Replace electrolytic capacitors

Disassembly Notes

  1. Unplug power and data cables
  2. Turn rotating part of base through 180 degrees and slide off
  3. Remove fixed part of base by removing two screws
  4. Remove four corner screws holding rear of case to front of monitor
  5. Gently slide the rear of the case backwards. May need spludger to initially loosen.
  6. Four screws to remove rear access panel
  7. Three screws, one on each side panel and one near flyback, to remove top chassis/shielding
  8. Undo screws holding joint switching regulator and interface board assembly and disconnect leads before sliding assembly upwards
