This will result in a fuzzy picture without the horizontal sync signal. The fix is the addition of a transistor, a diode and two resistors to the Sun-2 video controller board. If you are experiencing this problem on the monitor of your workstation, you need to swap the present video controller'with the latest revision CRev. -08).
