sembled and placed back in the mounting as close as possible to the original CRT and yoke. At this point having the convergence pattern on screen will assist in the mechanical mounting. Using the centering rings and observing the convergence pattern, rotate and move the pattern until the replacement color overlays as close as possible to the two colors not replaced. Moving the ring tabs together around the neck of the CRT draws the raster in small circles. Spreading the tabs apart moves the raster in more linear angles. The closer the tabs are together, the less affect on the CRT beam they have. When the raster is as close as possible fix the magnets with paint or nail polish to prevent further movement. After fixing the magnets, if gross geometry errors are apparent, geometry alignment is indicated. If the raster is close, use the "Auto-convergence" feature provided in the consumer menu to re-align convergence. This should correct most minor geometry problems. Follow auto-convergence with the consumer red and blue centering adjustments, then evaluate the raster again. In most cases convergence will now be acceptable. If only slight convergence errors are noted the technician should enter the manual digital convergence menu and begin "touchup" of the screen. If gross geometry errors are still apparent re-evaluate whether the errors are noticable on the replacement CRT or whether they are global, affecting all three CRT's. If the errors affect all three CRT's a full geometry alignment is indicated. If the errors only affect one CRT, particulary the replacement, return to the mechanical placement and centering ring adjustments and begin those procedures again.

On most patterns the remainder of the bars will progressively become brighter. Adjust Black Cutoff R or Black Cutoff G until any tinting disappears from the black bar. When properly adjusted the adjacent bar should be a very low level gray with no color tinting. Now observe the brighter portions of the bars. Adjust Whitpoint R, G, or B to remove any signs of tint in the higher brightness bars. Observe the bars for signs of CRT overdrive. Some compromise may be required, but the higher IRE bars should be as free from color tinting as possible. There are separate color temperature alignments for RF (NTSC), Comp 1H, Comp 2H, DVI and AUX_RGB (If unit has DVD option installed). 2. 3. Adjust for peak white.

Note: bel ow . The purpose of the color temperature setup is to assure uniform gray level from black to the brightest scenes. If a uniform gray screen is displayed, no matter the brightness level, no tinting in either red, green or blue direction should be apparent. This is known as "color tracking". Once the proper color temperature is set, AKB will maintain the cutoff of the CRT to assure proper low light performance. Black Cutoff R/G, Whitepoint R/G/B Setup (Recommended Method) 1. Apply a gray test pattern giving a 12 IRE flat window. Connect Colorimeter near the center of the screen. 2. Adjust Black Offset R and Black Offset G to obtain the following color coordinates.

16. The Drive Level Alignment is preset according to the CRT type selected and does not need to be adjusted. 17. Before exiting the Video Alignment Submenu, check Store to save all alignments. Color Temperature Color Temperature for the ITC222 is similar to past chassis. Some form of staircase pattern similar to the figure below is required. Proper identification of the "0" (if available) and "7.5" or "setup" bars on screen and the waveform produced on the cathodes of the CRT will be needed. Consult the specifications manual for the pattern generator used to confirm the location of these bars. The oscilloscope waveform shows the relationship between the bars and the video signal at the cathodes of the CRT. This waveform is present on all three cathodes. With the oscilloscope adjusted to provide a full peak to peak readout of the waveform at the horizontal rate, the 7.5 IRE setup bar will the critical area. Be certain this bar can be identified using the equipment available. If a 7.5 IRE bar is not available, 10 IRE may be used. It should be noted that bar patterns differ. Some vary from 10 to 100 IRE in various steps and in different directions, but most should have an identifiable 7.5 to 10 IRE bar.

Peak White Alignment 1. Apply a white centered pattern of 100 IRE 2% of the picture surface on a dark background. 2. Adjust for peak white at center of the screen. 3. Check Scaling Black Level, Whitepoint, Black Offset and Peak White adjustments. It may be necessary to adjust these alignments several times for optimum performance.
