Convergence
Horizontal & Vertical Convergence adjustment
Hor. Convergence: adjusts Horizontal Convergence
V er. Convergence: adjusts V ertical Convergen ce
Convergence is the monitor's ability to precisely illuminate specific phosphors
and line them up properly in order to produce pure color. Displayed characters
and images may appear fuzzy or have tinges of red , green, or blue if the el ectron
beams do not converg e correctly.
The 2115E monit or provi des a converg ence adjustm ent. To proper ly adjust
convergence, it is best to ha ve an image that makes it easy t o see any convergence error. A black background with white letters or lines is recommended.
When adjusting convergenc e, look at t he adjustment across the whole screen.
When adjusting horizontal convergence, look at the left and right edges of vertical lines or characters. When adjusting vertical convergence, look at the top and
bottom edges of horizontal lines or characters. The monitor is properly adjusted
when the eff ects of red and bl ue ti nges are minim ized.
? The convergence adjustment adjusts the entire screen. It is not
possible to limit adjustment to specific screen areas.
Page 22

Moire
Horizontal & V ertical Moire adjustment
Horizontal Moire: adjusts horizontal Moire
V ertical Moire: adjusts vertical Moire
Moire refers to an i nterference pa ttern of dark w avy lines on the scree n. It is an
interference phenomenon caused by the relationship between the phosphor layout and the imaging signal. I n fact, it is often considered an indication of good
focus level .
? It is especially noticeable when using a light-gray or every-other-
dot pattern. Moire cannot be elimina t ed. Howeve r, it ca n be re-
duced with the moire reductio n feature.
Moire can be reduced by using the moire reduction function. Prior to adjustment,
display a full white pattern so that any moire will be visible. Display a different
screen background to check the effect after making the adjustment.
? If t he pict ure is unsta ble when you adjust the moir e reduction
setting, over-adjustment has occured. Please lower the moire re-
duction setting level. (Factory default setting value : 0).
