CONVERGENCE SETUP W ORKSHEET Use this chart to record the Red, Green, and Blue convergence setting values. You do not need to copy the "Geometry" settings as they are the result of the red, green, and blue settings. This chart is useful if you have to change a main module and still have a working video display.
