5-2-6 Degaussing
Degaussing is required when poor color impurity appears on the screen. This monitor uses an automatic
degaussing circuit that is activated when the power is on. The automatic degaussing will be fully functional
again after the monitor has been in operation for 20 minutes.
The degaussing effect is confined to the picture tube since the coils are mounted at the back of the tube.
Should any part of the chassis or cabinet becomes magnetized, it is necessary to degauss the affected area
with a manual degaussing coil.
S-2-7 Manual Degaussing
1. Apply line voltageto the degaussing coil and move it in a rotary motion over the front, sides, and top of the
monitor. The coil should be kept away from the rear of the monitor to avoid damaging the magnetic neck
components.
2. Slowly rotate and move the coil away from the monitor to about 6 feet beyond the point where no effect
on the CRT will be noticeable.
For proper degaussing, it is essential that the field be gradually reduced by moving the coil slowly away from
the monitor. The degaussing coil must never be shut off or disconnected while near the monitor, as this would
introduce a strong field instead of canceling the effect of the stray fields.
