Width and Horizontal Center Adjustments
Horizontal centering control R3425 and width LX3261
are to be adjusted under low light conditions (see Fig-
ure 4-2).
1.
Turn the G2 control clockwise until a raster ap-
pears .
2.
. Adjust these two controls so that the raster is
1/4 inch from the left and 3/8 inch from the right
CRT edges.
3.
Turn the G2 control counterclockwise until the
raster just disappears.
Focus
With a video source connected to the monitor, adjust
the focus control for the clearest (sharpest) display
(see Figures 1-2 and 4-2).
Fill the Screen Test
A Z-100 Series, Z-100 PC Series, or equivalent com-
puter is required for these tests.
The screen can be filled by using the Monitor ROM.

Cleaning Procedure
WARNING: Be sure that the monitor's power cable
is unplugged before cleaning.
Clean the cabinet with a lint-free cloth, lightly
dampened and with a mild cleaning solution;
do not spray liquids directly on the monitor or
use a wet, saturated cloth.
Clean the monitor's screen with a good quality
glass cleaner.
Be sure that the monitor is completely dry be-
fore applying electrical power.
Servicing Diagrams
Use the following block diagrams to locate schematics
while tracing Signal and power circuits during trouble-
shooting.
Waveform representations are provided with adjacent
schematic and component location drawings. The
source location of waveforms are shown on both
schematic and component location drawing.
A Z-160 PC Series computer was used to supply the
composite Signals for generating the waveforms.
NOTE: Some input and output waveforms for some
boards are taken from the adjacent boards because
test points having the same Signal are more accessible
there.
