    P5P Convergence Adjustment Procedure

    Warning:

    This training material is designed for experienced repair technicians only and is not designed foruse by the public. It does not contain warnings or cautions to advise non-technical individuals of

    potential dangers in attempting to service a product. Products powered by electricity should beserviced or repaired only by experienced professional technicians. Any attempt to service orrepair the product or products dealt with in this training material by anyone else could result inserious injury or death.

    Preparations:

    The procedures discussed here apply to Projection Televisions equipped with the P5 and P6chassis. Models using screens with the aspect ratio of 4:3 require convergence in three modes,NTSC (480i), 1080i 16:9, and 1080i 4:3. Wide screen models with an aspect ratio of 16:9 requireconvergence in only 2 modes, NTSC (480i) and 1080i. This detailed procedure covers thecomplete convergence process, which is required if the A board is replaced. A particular unit

    under repair may not require the entire procedure. To ensure customer satisfaction, please verifyproper operation in all broadcast modes.

    Preliminary setup

    Entry to Serviceman Mode:

    Apply an NTSC signal, using a signal generator.You must enter the Serviceman mode to perform the convergence adjustments.

    a) Press the Action button on the remote control to access the roller guide menu.b) Use the Channel Up or Down button to highlight the Setup menu.c) Press the Action button again to enter the Setup mode.d) Press the Channel Up or Channel Down button to access the Program Channel function.e) Use the Volume Up button to change to cable mode.f) Press the Action button twice to exit the setup menu.g) Press the Channel Up or Channel Down button to rotate the roller guide until the timer

    function is highlighted.h) Press the Action button to access the timer settings.i) Press the Channel Up button to access the sleep timer adjustment.j) Use the Volume Up or Volume Down button to adjust the sleep timer to 30 minutes or higher.k) Press the Action button, as many times as needed, to exit the timer mode.

    l) Tune the set to channel 124.m) Using the front control panel, press and hold the Volume Down button until CHK is displayedin red in the upper left-hand corner of the screen.

    n) Select an active channel or video source.

    Format Setting:

    The same "A" board is used In the P5P and P5PW Chassis, regardless of the physical screenaspect ratio. A Version setting (VER) is included in the Serviceman menu to compensate for theformat differences. Therefore, it is highly recommended that a confirmation of that setting beperformed before starting the adjustment procedures. Currently the affected models are:P5PW Chassis family: PT-47WX49E, PT-47WX51E, PT-56WX51E, and PT-65WX51EP5P Chassis family: PT-51HX41E, PT-56HX41E, PT-61HX41E, and SR5144E.

    Confirmation of VER Setting:1. Press the Power button to access the

    Serviceman mode menu.2. Use Channel Up/Down and Volume

    Up/Down buttons to highlight "VER" inthe Serviceman menu.

    3. Press the Action button on the remote.A display of the two aspect ratios 4:3and 16:9 appears, with one highlighted.

    4. Use the Volume Up/Down button tohighlight the setting that matches thephysical aspect ratio of the screen.

    5. Unplug the monitor from the outlet.6. Plug the monitor back into the outlet.

    The monitor will turn back on, withoutexiting the Serviceman mode. Thecorrect format setting is now selected.

    7. Press the Power button on the remote, repeatedly, until CHK is displayed.

    NOTICE:

    For your convenience, the convergence circuits on replacement boards have been pre-programmed with average EEPROM data for the convergence alignment. The EEPROM isNOT blank; therefore, the average data should reduce the time needed to converge thisunit. More extensive convergence touchup may be needed on 51, 56 and 61 models.

    Preliminary Adjustments:

    Press the Action button to bring up the Roller Guide menu. Use the Channel Up or Channel Down button to highlight the Setup menu. Press the Action button to access the setup functions. Use the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons to access the Convergence 1

    adjustment. Using the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down Buttons, adjust both Green values to

    zero. Press the Action button and do the same for Red, then Blue. This provides maximum

    range of raster movement to the customer while adjusting the Static Convergence. Press the Action button, repeatedly, to exit the Setup Menu.

    Select the Coarse Convergence Mode from the Menu and press the Action Button.

    Coarse Mode Pattern

    Coarse Convergence Mode includes seven adjustments, Static, Skew, Size, Linear, Pin, Corner,and Key. Press the TV/Video button to cycle through the adjustments. These adjustments aresomewhat interactive. This means that the "Linear" adjustment for example, can affect the Sizeadjustment.

    STATIC: Use this adjustment to align the raster pattern to the embossed marks on thecabinet.

    Skew: Use this adjustment to make the shape of the pattern as rectangular as possible withthe pattern's vertical lines parallel to the vertical screen edges.

    SIZE: This adjustment is used to match the outside edges of the pattern to the edges of thescreen. Straight and perpendicular lines are desired; perfect alignment however may requirecycling through these adjustments due to interactions.

    Press and Hold the TV/Video button until the Crosshatch pattern appears on the screen.

    While in any of the Fine Adjustment modes, press the Mute button to toggle between "Cursor"and "Data" modes.

    Line Adjustment

    There are four adjustments in the FineConvergence Adjustment mode, LINE, EASY,POINT, and ORIGINAL POINT. LINE mode is usedto correct a single raster line horizontally orvertically.

    EASY mode allows the technician to adjust a groupof horizontal and vertical lines adjacent to thecursor. In this mode, there are only 9 adjustmentpositions on the screen and data values arechanged in increments of 4.

    Easy Adjustment

    POINT mode is similar to EASY mode exceptthat there are 77 adjustment points, 49 ofwhich are visible on the screen and 28 are off-screen (on the perimeter). In this mode, datavalues are changed in increments of 2.

    Orig. Point adjustment

    ORIGINAL POINT mode uses the same adjustmentpoints as in POINT mode except that the data valuesare changed in increments of 1.

    Note: Not all the crosshatch alignment points are accessible, so adjust for overall bestpicture.

    Fine Convergence Adjustments should be done in the order: LINE, EASY, POINT, andORIGINAL POINT.Reinstall the template. The template is necessary while converging the Green raster.

    G- LINE Mode:

    1. Press the TV/Video button, repeatedly, on the remote until the LINE mode cursor isdisplayed.

    2. Press the 1 or 3, repeatedly, on the remote until the Green raster only is displayed.

    3. Using the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons, move the cursor to thecenter of the screen.

    4. Press the Mute button to change to DATA mode. The display will change from CURSORto DATA and the cursor square will stop blinking.

    5. Use the Channel Up/Down buttons to adjust the position of the Green Horizontal line tocoincide with the template line.

    Screen Size Mode Grid line Color

    56 480P/480i Blue grid lines

    56 1080i 4:3 Mode Orange grid lines

    56 1080i 16:9 Mode Yellow grid Lines

    61 1080i 4:3 Mode Magenta grid lines

    61 1080i 16:9 Mode Green grid lines

    Concentrate on the center of each horizontal line only, the edges will be adjusted in other modesof adjustment.

    6. Switch back to cursor mode by pressing the Mute button on the remote.7. Move the cursor to the next horizontal line and continue the process. Work your way out

    from the center of the screen up and down. Adjust until all of the horizontal lines matchthe template lines.

    8. Press 7 then Action to save the data changes.

    21/26

    When adjustments of all the horizontal lines are completed, continue by adjusting the verticallines.

    9. Using the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons, move the cursor to thecenter of the screen.

    10. Press the Mute button to change to DATA mode. The display will change from cursor todata and the cursor square will stop blinking.

    11. Use the Volume Up/Down buttons to adjust the position of the green vertical line so itcoincides with the applicable template line. You will probably notice that lines that arefarther from their corresponding template grid lines have more tendencies to affect theposition of lines adjacent to them. This is normal. You may have to go back and readjustthe positions of the affected lines. Concentrate on the center of each line only during thisadjustment. The edges will be aligned in other adjustment modes.

    When adjustments of all vertical and horizontal lines are completed, save the data changes.

    G- EASY Mode

    Use this mode to correct larger areas of the screen that are out of convergence. You should only

    have to adjust eight of the nine adjustment points since the center point was previously correctedin LINE Mode. Use EASY mode to straighten curved lines.

    12. Press the TV/Video button until "G-EASY" is displayed. Press the Mute button tochange to CURSOR mode.

    13. Use the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons to move the cursor to theadjustment position.

    14. Press the Mute button to change to DATA mode.15. Adjust the group of lines near the cursor so that they are as straight as possible. Work

    your way around the screen adjusting the green raster lines to match the template lines.16. When all eight points are adjusted, save the data changes.

    After the EASY mode adjustment is complete, do notreturn to it to correct a misconverged spot.

    A readjustment of any point in the EASY mode will result in misadjusting the convergence of thatarea of the screen, which you may have already converged, using subsequent adjustments.

    G-Point Mode

    1080i Mode

    After you have completed the convergence adjustments in the NTSC (480i) mode, you need toapply a DTV 1080i signal to one of the component inputs of the monitor and perform theconvergence adjustments for the 1080i mode. The data values for this mode are stored in theEEPROM storage location P4.

    1. Press the Power button, repeatedly, on the remote control until CHK is displayed inthe upper left hand corner of the screen.

    2. Press the TV/Video button until the 1080i signal is visible on the screen.3. Press the Power button and verify that 1080i and 4:3 in the Serviceman menu are

    both highlighted in red. If 1080i is not highlighted, then the 1080i input is notselected. One method of verifying that the 1080i source has been selected is topress 7 while in the convergence adjustment mode. The message "Store P-4"should appear.

    Convergence procedures for the 1080i mode are the same as those of the NTSC mode. Thedifferences are in the storage location, which is P-4 and in the template grid lines.

    Start by setting the Static Convergence levels to zero, go to Register mode and align the TESTmode lines, complete the DATA adjustment, OSD Position adjustment, and continue by adjustingthe Green, Red and Blue raster lines. As always, remember to save the data changesperiodically.

    4. Press the Action Button to bring up the Roller Guide menu.5. Use the Channel Up/Down buttons to highlight the Setup menu.6. Press the Action button to access the setup functions.7. Use the Volume Up button to access the Convergence 1 adjustment.8. Adjust both Green values to zero, using the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down

    Buttons.9. Press the Action button and do the same for Red, then Blue. This provides maximum

    range of movement to the Customer in Static Convergence mode.10. Press Action twice to exit the Setup Menu11. Press the 0 and Action buttons on the remote control to enter the Register mode, and

    begin with the TEST POS. Adjustment.12. Press the 5 button to superimpose the external video source signal on the

    convergence pattern.

    13. Using the Channel Up/Down buttons, Align the cross hair with the center of themonoscope pattern. Verify that the vertical and horizontal centerlines match themarks on the cabinet. If they do not, the picture is not centered. The picturecentering adjustment will have to be performed.

    14. Press 5 to exit the Superimpose mode.15. Press TV/VIDEO button to enter the DATA POS Adjustment mode.16. Use the Volume Up/Down buttons to make the curve in the center of the screen

    symmetrical. The upward and downward slopes of the hill should be of the sameshape.

    19. Use the Channel Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons to align the cursor centerwith the monoscope pattern center.

    20. Finally, press 0 to return to the COARSE ADJ MODE.

    Continue by following the same procedures you used when you adjusted the 480i NTSC in theFine Convergence Mode.

    Adjust Fine convergence in the order, LINE, EASY, POINT, and ORIGINAL POINT.Use the corresponding pattern lines on the convergence template to adjust the Green lines, thenalign the Red and Blue raster lines to the Green. Remember to save the data changesperiodically, to location P-4.

    Models Equipped with 4:3 Aspect Ratio Screens (HX)

    P5 and P6 projection televisions require the convergence to be adjusted in 1080i (16:9) modeand the 1080i (4:3) mode.

    1. Press the Power button on the remote, repeatedly, until CHK is displayed in Red onthe screen.

    2. Press the Action button on the remote and bring up the Picture Menu.3. Use the Volume Up/Down buttons to select Video Adj. 2.4. Select the 16:9 aspect ratio and press the Action Button twice to exit the menu.5. Press the Power button on the remote control and verify that the Serviceman mode

    menu has 1080i and 16:9 highlighted in red. Convergence Data for this mode isstored in Location P-6.

    The procedures to adjust the convergence in this mode are the same as those previously used inthe NTSC mode. The differences are in the storage location, which is P-6 and in the template gridlines.

    Copying and Restoring Data

    After completing the convergence adjustments and saving the data values, it is a good idea tobackup the convergence data. This is done by pressing 8 on the remote control in the FineConvergence adjustment mode. A menu appears, prompting: COPY FROM? Scroll to it usingthe CH Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons then press the Action. Another menu pops up,prompting: COPY TO? Scroll to it using the CH Up/Down and Volume Up/Down buttons thenpress Action. The copy process will then be complete. Copy the data from location P3 to location
