Condition: Used
This HDS Network Systems ViewStation X X terminal (BA-J270083-001) powers on and the 15-pin video port does send a signal. However, we were not able to display video on any of our monitors — the ViewStation X uses a proprietary sync format that is not compatible with standard modern displays, so this is expected behavior for this type of X terminal rather than an indication of a fault. The unit has been inspected and appears to be in good physical condition overall. It was pulled from a working environment. Cosmetically, the beige case shows typical age-related discoloration and light surface wear consistent with normal use. All rear ports are present and appear intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
