Multiple Scan 15 Display

Released July 1994

A 15-inch shadow-mask CRT with a 13.3-inch viewable image, Macintosh analogue input and tilt-and-swivel stand.

Specifications

Screen size: 13.3″
Panel: CRT (Nominal 15-inch flat-square shadow-mask CRT with 13.3-inch viewable image and 0.28 mm dot pitch; no fixed native pixel matrix. Apple Facts notes two designs sold worldwide.)
Supported signal modes: Apple's archived support sheet lists 640 × 480 at 60 or 66.7 Hz, 800 × 600 at 60 or 72 Hz, 832 × 624 at 75 Hz and 1024 × 768 at 70 Hz. Service Source restricts 1024 × 768 to PC-compatible computers using a Mac/PC adaptor; Apple Facts October 1995 instead lists that Windows mode at 60 Hz. Supported modes depend on computer and regional design; these are CRT signal modes, not a native matrix or native refresh rate.
Screen coating: Service Source describes a polished surface treatment; archived TIL 15754 describes antistatic and antiglare treatment for European models only

Video inputs: DA-15
USB-C charging: None
Speakers: Yes
Other connections: Captive Macintosh 15-pin DA-15 analogue RGB video connector; a Mac/PC adaptor is needed for VGA computers. The archived TIL pinout identifies the Macintosh connector, rather than a VGA DE-15 socket.
Audio out: One audio input and one headphone/speaker pass-through port in Service Source; archived TIL describes a front-panel headphone jack
Speaker detail: Stereo speakers and headphone jack confirmed by Apple Facts October 1995 and archived TIL 15754; EveryMac's no-audio entry conflicts with those maker sources

Stand adjusts: Tilt, swivel
Weight with stand: 14 kg
Size with stand: Apple's current archive lists 16.7 × 15.9 × 17.8 inches (height × width × depth). Apple Facts October 1995 also publishes 42.4 × 40.5 × 45.2 cm and warns that two worldwide designs have different dimensions and weight. Archived TIL 15754 instead gives 375 × 365 × 380 mm including base; the difference is retained.
Weight detail: Apple Facts and Service Source publish 14 kg (31 lb); Apple Facts warns dimensions and weight may vary between the two worldwide designs
Controls: Front-panel power, brightness and contrast; geometry shift and size, zoom, reset and recall controls. Automatic degauss on power-up.

Power use: Maximum 90 W; archived TIL specifies less than 30 W in Energy Saver mode
Power supply: Service Source specifies 90–134 or 198–260 V AC, 47–63 Hz; these are mains ratings
Software: System 7.1 or later. Some older Macintosh models require an adaptor for modes beyond 640 × 480. Apple lists introduction as July 1994; TidBITS reported shipping by 25 July 1994, so month precision is retained. Brightness and contrast ratio are unpublished.
Certifications: MPR II and US EPA Energy Star compliance in Service Source
