Service adjustments (electronic controls)

Note: It is recommended to allow a 30 min. warm
up at highest bright (using white screen) before
perform any picture adjustment.

Sub-Contrast

Service DAC (B03)
This adjustment is factory set. Do not adjust unless
repairs are made to associated circuit, the CRT board
or when the CRT is replaced.
Preparation:
1. Apply a color bar signal pattern with 87.5%
modulation, 70% saturated color bar with a 100
IRE white and 7.5 black.
Note:
The pattern used in this procedure is an EIA
color bar pattern with 87.5% modulation with 100 IRE
white and 7.5 black. Correlate the information in this
procedure to the pattern used if another signal is used.

• Brightness . . . . . . . .Center.
• Picture . . . . . . . . . . . Max.
• Sharpness . . . . . . . . Center.
• Gamma, S05 . . . . . . 15

3. Connect the scope probe between TP35 (C-Board)
and cold ground ( ).
Procedure:
1. In the service mode, select DAC Sub-Contrast

TIP

Sub-Brightness

Service DAC (B02)
Due to the characteristics of this chassis, Sub-
Brightness adjustment is no required. To obtain a good
brightness level in the picture, set the service register
to the default level: 127.
Perform "final Sub-brightness adjustment" only if prefer
different level of brightness in the picture.

Tint/Color adjustment

Service DACs (B01) (B00)
Preparation:
1. Apply a rainbow color bar signal.

Procedure
1. In the service mode, select DAC B01, Sub-Tint
adjustment. Adjust until the waveform measured is
as below (see Fig. 24).
A to B = 1 Unit
A to B = 1 unit
A to C = 1 Unit
B to C = 2 units

2. Connect the oscilloscope to TP35 (C-Board).
3. Select DAC sub-color adjustment (B00) and adjust
for peak to peak amplitude to be 0.7Vp-p ±0.05V
for 13" and 0.8Vp-p ±0.05V for 20" and 27" as
shown in see Fig. 25.
