Changing the skew
Users can individually set the red, green, and blue skew setting for each input
and/or output from the Picture Settings page. The skew settings

Change an input's or output's skew setting as follows:
N For best results, set all three skew values to 0 ns (see steps 2a and 2b below)
before adjusting for misconvergence.
1.
Use UTP cable test equipment or examine the displayed video image with
a critical eye to determine which video signal, red, green, or blue, is most
shifted to the left.
N A crosshatch test pattern is ideal for evaluating pair skew.
2.
Monitor the displayed image. Increase the left-shifted video signal's skew
setting 2 ns at a time as follows:
N
The skew compensation function cannot shift a video plane farther left than the 0 ns
setting.

Click drop box for the desired input or output and the desired video
plane. A drop-down scroll box appears (figure 6-12).

N A 2-nanosecond adjustment is very fine. Up to 10 nanoseconds of delay may be
necessary before you detect a change in the display.
