To zero the skew adjustment dials
When supplied, the two skew dials are set in
their neutral positions. i.e. no delay to either
of its colours. However, if the module has
been previously used and adjusted then you
may need to relocate the zero point. There are
no setting markers around the two skew dials
and the dial itself does not have a pointer.
1 Insert a small screwdriver into the skew
dial and twist it all the way anticlockwise.
Note the position of the dial when it
reaches its end point.
2 Rotate the screwdriver fully clockwise and
again note the endpoint position of the
dial.
3 Now rotate the screw driver anticlockwise until the dial reaches the position
that lies midway between the two end points. This is the neutral position.
4 Repeat this procedure for the other skew dial, if necessary.

To adjust the skew compensation
Your chances of achieving a successful skew compensation adjustment will be
improved if you do the following:
• Ensure that you have a clear view of one or both display screens,
• Display a suitable RGB test pattern, either the
created version,
• Use a screwdriver of an appropriate size to adjust the dials,
• Begin with both skew dials in their neutral positions - if the module has
been previously used and skew adjusted for an alternative installation, zero
the dials as described in the section 'To zero the skew adjustment dials' left.
