The VGA-Plus is a compact and versatile computer monitor tester. With 16-switch selectable functions, you can diagnose, repair and test all VGA type monitors, projectors, LCD displays and video capture equipment without the need of a computer. The VGA-Plus provides sequencing functions which allow extended burn-in testing for Fixed Scan, Multi Scan or Multi Scan with Power Cycling (Energy Star / Nutek compliant monitors). The tester is equipped with a DC power jack (2.5mm, center positive) and a 15-pin high-density female D-Sub connector. The unit measures 2.25" x 2.18" x .65" and is powered from a 9-Volt battery or optional AC adapter. Very handy on each tech's bench yet small enough to slip into your shirt pocket for use at the counter or in the field.
