I recently got this monitor for free (refer pics below). It is in very good condition and still works.
I'm struggling to find some information about this monitor, specifically the specifications in terms of vertical & horizontal refresh rates.
From what I've gathered, this is still a standard VGA monitor and was hoping that it might be able to sync to around 25 kHz horizontal frequency.
Found this old thread about someone asking as well but, not much else: Philips pro 3cm9609 information needed

Unlikely it will work much outside standard VGA.

A Strange thing is I own an EGA monitor that looks identical to your screen
Except labeled Magnavox

Also your screen xrefs to some sort of Apple screen

All I could say is if you can work around HV
open up the case, see if there are HV pot adjusters,
hook up your signal
And adjust as necessary to get it to hopefully sync up, you may find you need an Extron if it doesn’t have enough internal trim.

Also there are service manuals for the screen behind paywalls
