Purity and Convergence Procedure
Adjustment is necessary only if the CRT or the
deflection yoke is replaced or if the setting was
disturbed. The complete procedure consists of:
1.
Vertical Raster Shift Adjustment.
2. Initial static convergence.
3. Setting the purity.
4. Final static convergence.
When the CRT or the Yoke is Replaced
Place the yoke on the CRT neck (do not tighten
the clamp).
Place the vertical raster shift tabs at 3 o’clock (90
o
from
the purity and convergence tabs (See Fig. 9 and
Fig. 10)
Turn the Receiver ON. Operate the Receiver for 60
minutes using the first Purity Check field (white screen)
to stabilize the CRT.
Fully degauss the Receiver by using an external
degaussing coil.
Slide the deflection yoke back and forth on the neck of
the CRT until it produces a near white, uniform raster.
Vertical Raster Shift Adjustment
Apply a green pattern with a horizontal line, adjust the
Deflection Yoke so that has no tilt, then secure it.
Adjust center line of the pattern with the mechanical
center of the CRT, this center is determined by two
marks at the side edges of the screen. To adjust the
line, once the vertical raster shift tabs are place at 3
o’clock to reduce its magnetic field effect (see Fig. 9 )
open the tabs the same angle from the center, until the
center line of the pattern becomes a straight line,
centered with the marks of the CRT.
(see Fig. 10)
Initial Center Static Convergence
Connect a dot/cross hatch generator to the Receiver
and tune in a signal. Observe misconvergence at
center of the screen only.
Adjust the R&B pole magnets; by separating tabs and
rotating to converge blue with red.
Adjust the R&B and R&B&G pole magnets: by
separating tabs and rotating to converge blue and red
(magenta) with green.
Note: Precise convergence at this point is
not important.
Purity Adjustment
When the Receiver is in the Serviceman Mode for
making electronic adjustments, press the Recall button
on the Remote Control to enter Purity Check. (See the
Service Adjustments Electronic Controls
procedure).
Operate the Receiver for 60 minutes using the first
Purity Check field (white screen) to stabilize the CRT.
Fully degauss the Receiver by using an external
degaussing coil.
Press the Recall button on the Remote Control again
until the Purity Check (green screen) appears.
Loosen the deflection yoke clamp screw and move the
deflection yoke back as close to the purity magnet
as possible.
Adjust the Purity rings to set the vertical green raster
precisely at the center of the screen (see Fig. 12).
Slowly move the deflection yoke forward until the best
overall green screen is displayed.
Tighten the deflection yoke clamp screw.
Press the Recall button on the Remote Control again
until the purity check blue and red screens appear and
observe that good purity is obtained on each respective
field.
Press the Recall button on the Remote Control again
until Purity check (white screen) appears. Observe the
screen for uniform white. If purity has not been
achieved, repeat the above procedure.

NOTES:
1. CRT warm up with white screen
(three guns activated) is needed
to stabilize the shadow mask
expansion.
2. Initial center static convergence
(roughly centers three gun
beams) is required in order to
perform purity adjustment.
