4-3-1 Color Coordinates (Temperature)
Color temperature is a measurement of the

to the radiant energy transmitted by white. Color
coordinates are the X and Y coordinates on the
chromaticity diagram of wavelengths for the
visible spectrum.

4-3-5 Color Purity Adjustment
Color purity is the absence of undesired color.
Conspicuous mislanding (unexpected color in a
uniform field) within the display area shall not be
visible at a distance of 50 cm from the CRT
surface.
CONDITIONS
Orientation: Monitor facing east
Scanning frequency: 68 kHz/85 Hz
Display image: White flat field
Luminance: Cut off point at the center
of the display area
Note: Color purity adjustments should only be
attempted by qualified personnel.
PROCEDURE
For trained and experienced service technicians only.
Use the following procedure to correct minor
color purity problems:
1. Make sure the display is not affected by
external magnetic fields.
2. Make sure the spacing between the PCM
assembly and the CRT stem is 29 mm ± 1 mm.
3. Display a green pattern over the entire display
area.
4. Adjust the purity magnet rings on the PCM
assembly to display a pure green pattern.
(Optimum setting: x = 0.295 ± 0.015, y = 0.594 ± 0.015)
Table 4-3. Color Purity Tolerances
(For 9300K color adjustment: x = 0.283 ± 0.02, y = 0.298 ± 0.02)
5. When you have the PCMs properly adjusted,
carefully glue them together to prevent
movement during shipping.
