|
|
Is there a way to mechanically converge the Blue and the Red with the horizontal Green?
Or
Just use cent to converge?
Thanks

I don't recommend messing with any pots.
Your mechanical aim and horizon look very good as is.

Ok - I'll just use cent then.
Thanks

Use CENT to align the cross hairs on top of each other.
Then do the rest of the alignment/centring/bow/skew etc and end up back on the ZONE page to adjust everything but the center. If you have it well set up you should either need no ZONE or only a few clicks to finish up.
EDIT: I RTFMed, sorry was thinking of the 12xx series Moon manual.

Are the yokes firm up against the bells?

In the mean time I'll go check.

AR Zone and Cent are different controls on the G70.
Cent H&V is used to align the cross hairs.
Zone is for final tweaks to select spots on the screen. 21 I believe in a G70, never counted em, and 40 or 50 on a NEC XG
Its best to not use Zone but you almost always end up using some.

Is the G70 different than the D50's setup?
EDIT: never mind, I read that in a 12xx manual.

Don't even think of using any pots on a G70. You are good to go, just start using the convergence controls.

This is counter intuitive, but I will suggest that you do your mechanical alignment to the sides of the image rather than the center. Look into the tubes and create your 16x9 raster so that it is equidistant from either edge of the sides of the tube face. Then use the cross pattern to align the cross hatch hatches that are closest to the edges, not the center.
When you perform physical alignment this way you will wind up using more of the usable phosphor and the image will be more evenly distributed across the tube face. This means brighter image and sharper image.

Sure, in the photo below, align the cross so that you get RGB (white) at the sides (circled in red). Don't worry what happens in the middle (circled in green, this can be misaligned). It is basically the opposite of the way you did it.
Before you start alignment, look inside the tubes and adjust the left and right edges of the cross (in each tube) so that they are equidistant from the edges of each tube on both sides. Then physically move (spin) the tubes such that the edges align on the screen.
Get it? It is kinda confusing,

It is easier with the lenses removed. you will see the edges of the tube more clearly.
BTW you will need to ground the lens leads for the PJ to operate.

I think I kind of get it.
I'll try it tomorrow.
I'm sure it will make more sense once I've played with it.
Thanks

Once I've taken the lenses off.
What do I use to gauge the distance from the edge of the haircross / crosshatch to the edge of the tube
without touching the C element?
Does this have to be really precise or can I eyeball it?
Thanks
