trying to do convergence. I can not make red or blue match green. I have a zenith pro 895x. I have read the online manuals but no help. is there a setup from a different pj out there that explains it to do it in a easier way. It looks easy until you try it. Thanks

Have you done the mechanical alignment of the lens's first, that is move the red and blue in or out(toe ) to get as close to the green , and then use the electronic convergence?

I have done that but no help. I know I made matters worse now. I am just trying to figure out a good starting point for the green. Because all my outher colors seam to big and I cannot get them to adjust when in setup to match green . I was thought in normal operation geomertry shows screen size but shows na in setup. I thoght that it would be the same way to set the outher colors for base size than go on from that point

How far away is the screen? Sounds like the throw distance may be incorrect. Where are you located?

Yes, a correct mechanical setup is **crucial** and it includes many things: making sure the projector is at an appropriate distance, making sure it is dead centered and ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY perpendicular to the screen. Then zero out all electronic convergence (start with a fresh reset projector) and point the Red & Blue tubes/lenses so all 3 colors are converged (as close as possible, at least left/right) in the center of the screen. Have you done ALL of those things?
