There seems to be a broken connection
in the 12 volt supplies or return to
the amplifier card.
eSee Figure 6-16 to trace wiring and
isolate the failure.
NOTE: If only the -12 V supply was
lost, the fuse on the amplifier card
should have failed .
• Exchange
it if
necessary after
repairing the connection failure.
GO TO MAP 0000, ENTRY POINT BB.

-Exchange the fuse on
the-
amplifier card
and test.
If the fuse fails again,
exchange the amplifier card.
-See MIM Chapter 5 to make adjustments.

• Meter lead --- A5D02
- Meter lead --- A5B02
Is the voltage between
10

• Use Figure 6-16 to check the 12 V LOPT
back to the analog card.
-Isolate to one of:
a) Cables or connectors
b) Amplifier card
c) Analog card

Set the TEST/NORMAL switch to NORMAL.
-Set the A,a/A switch to A.
.Hold down the ALT key, press the TEST
key, release both.
(This is to ensure
the screen is clear),
-Jumper C2G06 to C2D08.
Most locations on
the screen will contain an
'~'
character.
-Jumper C2W07 to C2W28.
The characters
should become white.
If the convergence
is bad they will be many-colored.
Is the convergence good (or nearly good)
near the center of the screen but gets
worse toward the edges and corners?

-VerifY that the convergence coil
assembly is correctly located on the
CRT.
Sea Figure 4-8.
-Attempt to improve the convergence at
the center of the screen by adjusting
the three static convergence
thumbwheels and the blue lateral
(STATIC BLAT) potentiometer.
See
Figure 1-4 and MIM section 5.3.1.
Is the convergence now nearly good at
the center of the screen, getting worse
toward the edges?

key, release both ..
.Press keys / 7 ENTER.
.Press the SPACE BAR ten (10) times.
NOTE: The next few steps check the
convergence circuits.
-Press the UP cursor key and hold for
about 10 seconds.
.Now press and hold the DOWN cursor key .
