To Adjust Skew
Your chances of achieving a successful skew adjustment will be improved if you do the following:
• Ensure that you have a clear view of one or both display screens,
• Display a suitable RGB test pattern, either the supplied pattern or a self-created version,
• Use a screwdriver of an appropriate size to adjust the dials,
• Begin with both skew dials in their neutral positions - if the unit has been previously used and
skew adjusted for an alternative installation, zero the dials as described in the section To Zero
the Skew Adjustment Dials.
1. Turn the SKEW RG dial clockwise or counterclockwise until you observe that the red and
green colors are aligned.
2. Turn the SKEW GB dial clockwise or counterclockwise until you observe that the green and
blue colors are aligned.
3. Your actions in step 2. may alter the Red/Green alignment. If so, go back to the SKEW RG dial
and turn it clockwise or counterclockwise until you observe that the Red and Green colors are
aligned, at which point all of the colors will be aligned.
