2.1 Before You Start
Let the monitor warm up for at least 20 minutes before performing any
adjustments on the monitor. The warm-up time ensures that the electron
guns are at a stable temperature before you do any adjustments.
NOTE
If a customer calls with a display-quality problem, ask the
customer to leave the monitor on until you arrive. Then you
only need to let the monitor warm up for 5 minutes after you
remove the rear cabinet assembly.
Before you perform adjustments, set up the monitor as follows. First
remove the rear cabinet assembly (Section 3.1).
1. Place the monitor on a nonconductive surface.
2. Reconnect the video cables.
3. Reconnect the power cord.
4. Press the power switch on ( | ). Wait for a video display to appear on
the screen.
Displaying Screen Test Patterns
For some procedures in this chapter, you must display a circle-crosshatch
or screen of E’s diagnostic pattern (Appendix B). To display these patterns,
refer to your host system’s service manual and follow the procedures for
accessing diagnostic screen patterns.
