Is there a reset for zone focus on the marquee's? I know you can just put everything to 50 but sometimes after a complete
re-initialization they dont go back to 50 for each zone and i want to make sure 50 is the starting point. I have realized part of my green tint was due to a need for more blue defocus after installing the HD144's . I got it close then realized it was tinted more to one side. After going into the zone and adjusting them all, it seams that adjusting the static(center,top,bottom) would alter the values needed for the dynamic(left and right), where i would have to raise or lower it depending on the static change. I want to start over from scratch,set the optimal focus then defocus to get even white across the screen. I do not have the color correction modual on my PJ.

Maybe press '0' when you are in the zone adjustments, that can bring things back to 0 depending on which menu you are in. Otherwise you will need to manually set to 50 yourself.

Thanks Gino...I tried that, I just set everything to 50 and went from there, the weird thing is if you set center to 50 then set rest to 50 and go back to center its focus has changed a lot. I was looking for the way to get all at 50 evenly focused at each zone i guess it doesn't work like that or you need to do a lot of messing around to adjust each zone till you find the correct sweet spot for it all. But any how i worked two days about 4-7 hours each day(you loose track of time down there!) working on the calibration and all but eliminated the green tint. Just a bit yellow to the right side of the screen but that side the blue is defocused more than i like. I think I know what the problem is.... If you do not have a sharp focus on any one color it will do the same as blue defocus does the greyscale. so for those who plan on doing a grey scale make sure each color is super sharp at all sides or at least evenly focused across the entire face of the tube,other wise your grey scale will be compromised! back to the magnetics again!!!!

If you're getting too much defocus on one side, use both lens flapping adjustments and electronic focus adjustments to get it even
