Service Adjustments (Electronic Controls)

Sub-Brightness

Service DAC Adjustment (B2)
Adjustment of this control is important for setting proper
operation of customer brightness and picture controls.
This adjustment must be made after Sub-Contrast or
Color Temperature adjustments are made. Do not
adjust SCREEN after the Sub-Brightness is set.
Preparation:
Apply a color bar signal wit 100 IRE white and 7.5
IRE black. (Switch Color to "OFF" on the signal
generator.) Operate the Receiver for a minimum of
10 minutes prior to performing this adjustment.
Procedure:
In the Service Mode for making electronic
adjustments, select the DAC adjustment (B2) and
adjust until the black starts to look gray. Then
decrease the level to the point where gray turns
to black.
Note: You may set the accurate value following the
Preparation steps and the Procedure step No.
2 of the Sub-Contrast adjustment described
below.

Video Adjustment Level

Service DAC Adjustment (B5)
Preparation:
1. Obtain an NTSC color bar pattern with 100 IRE
white and 87.5% modulation.
2. Connect the oscilloscope to TP12. Use cold
ground for scope connection. Set the scope at
Horizontal Sweep rate (20µs) time base.
Procedure:
1. In the Service Mode for making electronic
adjustments, select DAC Video Adjustment Level
(B5) and adjust for 1.0±0.05V from sync tip to white
level. See Fig. 18.

2. Check that the sync signal amplitude (ratio
between the sync signal to detection output) is
within the range of 30 ±5% (S/(S+P) = 30 ±5%).
3. Set the DAC Sub-Contrast Adjustment (B3).

Sub-Contrast

Service DAC Adjustment (B3)
This adjustment is factory set. Do not adjust unless
repairs are made to associated circuit, the CRT Board
or when the CRT is replaced.
Preparation:
1. Apply a color bar signal pattern with 87.5%
modulation, 70% saturated color bar with a 100
IRE white and 7.5 black.
Note:
The pattern used in this procedure is an EIA color
bar pattern with 87.5% modulation with 100 IRE
white and 7.5 black. Correlate the information in this
procedure to the pattern used if another signal
is used.

Procedure:
1. In the Service Mode, select DAC Sub-Brightness
Adjustment (B2) and adjust for 1.0-1.5Vp-p
between blanking and 7.5 IRE level. (See video
waveforms detail, Fig. 19).

2. In the Service Mode for electronic adjustments,
select DAC Sub-Contrast Adjustment (B3) and
adjust for 2.8Vp-p ±0.1V for 27" models from white
level to black level on video waveform (see video

waveforms detail, Fig. 19).
3. Remove the jumpers (Preparation steps 4 & 5).

Tint/Color Adjustment
