Identification and compatibility notes
Do not treat the GDM-F400 as the larger GDM-F500; the F400 is 19-inch-class and has a lower maximum scan specification.
Record the rear-label model, regional voltage rating, video connector used, source timing, adapter chain, visible image area and geometry/convergence condition. CRTs contain hazardous high-voltage circuits and heavy components; internal service belongs to qualified technicians.
