I just finished scoping my xg1352, set the G2's based off of guy's guide and this image shows up. If you look on the blue tube you can see the raster JUST lighting up on the right side of the tube. The image is just on half tubes.

If I remember correctly, this happened after I scoped a xg750 and I adjusted the g2 pots slightly and it corrected this, but I'm trying not to indiscriminately adjust the pots. Am I reading the manuals waveform incorrectly?

I have a spare board and replaced it with that and it's still there.

Thanks

The Pedestal level is not set properly.

You need to redo the BLKG pots section of the process, it's near the start.

It's quite tricky to see through the noise on the scope.

I figured it had possibly had something to do with the noise in the signal.

Which pots do you mean by blkg? Do you remember?

The pots used to set the black level to the pedestal are labelled BLKG on the metal grill covering the video out/gain/etc boards.
