CONVERGENCE ADJUST
Your Rear Projection TV has three color projection tubes: one for red, one for green, one for blue. When
mixed together in the proper proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To
produce these colors, however, the beams must be precisely aligned over each other so that the colors
can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.
Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or
moving the Rear Projection TV. If you move your Rear Projection TV, or if, after a time, you notice color
rings or halos around objects in the picture, you may want to converge (align) the colors.
Properly converged, the lines appear white, which is actually a combination of the outputs of the three
color tubes. The output of the green tube is stationary. The outputs of the red and blue tubes can be
adjusted.
To simplify convergence, this Rear Projection TV incorporates a feature to allow you to display a test
pattern of horizontal and vertical lines at nine different locations on the screen. Simply use the remote
control to adjust the red and blue colors to match the green.
