4 Alignment and Adjustments
This section of the service manual explains how to make permanent adjustments to the monitor. Directions are given for adjustments using the monitor Interface Board Ver. 2.0 and software (Softjig).
4-1 Adjustment Conditions
Caution: Changes made without the Softjig are saved only to the user mode settings. As such, the settings are not permanently stored and may be inadvertently deleted by the user.
4-1-1 Before Making Adjustments
4-1-1 (a) ORIENTATION
When servicing, always face the monitor to the east.
4-1-1 (b) WARM-UP TIME
The monitor must be on for 30 minutes before starting alignment. Warm-up time is especially critical in color temperature and white balance adjustments.
4-1-1 (c) SIGNAL
Analog, 0.7 Vp-p positive at 75 ohm, internal termination
Sync: TTL level, negative/positive
4-1-1 (d) SCANNING FREQUENCY
Horizontal: |
30 kHz ~ 85 kHz (Automatic) |
Vertical: |
50 Hz ~ 160 Hz (Automatic) |
Unless otherwise specified, adjust at the 1024 x 768 mode (68 kHz/85 Hz) signal.
4-1-2 Required Equipment
The following equipment may be necessary for adjustment procedures:
4-1-2 (a) DISPLAY CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
1.Non-metallic (–) screwdriver: 1.5, 2.5, 3 mm
2.Non-metallic (+) screwdriver: 1.5, 2.5, 3 mm
3.Digital Multimeter (DMM), or Digital Voltmeter
4.Signal generator, or DM200 software
5.Personal computer
4-1-2 (b) COLOR ADJUSTMENTS
1.All equipment listed in 4-1-2 (a), above
2.Color analyzer, or any luminance measurement equipment.

Centering means to position the center point of the display in the middle of the display area. Horizontal size and position and vertical size and position control the centering of the display.
Adjust the horizontal size and vertical size to their optimal settings: 352 mm (H) x 264 mm.
Adjust the horizontal position and vertical position to ≤ 4.0 mm of the center point of the screen.

4-2-5 Linearity
Linearity affects the symmetry of images as they appear on the screen. Unless each row or column of blocks in a crosshatch pattern is of equal size, or within the tolerances shown in Table 4-2, an image appears distorted, elongated or squashed.
Horizontal Linearity = 2x X max-X min x100
