On this television the red, green and blue images
are projected separately onto the screen. They
converge to form full colour and when they converge
correctly you will see a clear picture. It is especially
apparent when viewing cartoons.
The green is fixed and therefore not adjustable. The red
and blue are factory set and should need little or no
adjustment. However, convergence may drift over time or
if the TV is moved.
Select a TV channel and let the TV warm up for at least 30
minutes before realigning the colours…
Why are there coloured outlines in the picture?
