1 INTRODUCTION
This section
provides
a basic (paragraph
3.2)
and an
extended (paragraph
3.3)
alignment
procedure.
The
basic procedure, which should accompany any service
work,
requires
only a calibrated oscilloscope.
The
extended procedure, which should be
performed
at
nominal six-month
intervals,
requires
the oscillo-
scope,
module
extenders, a calibrated
digital
voltme-
ter and other equipment as listed in Table 3-2. All
adjustments
not covered in
this
procedure
should
be
·
performed on suitable module test fixtures only.
3.1.1

EQUIPMENT
REQUIRED
The basic procedure
requires the
test
equipment
listed in
Table 3-1. The
additional equipment
required
for the extended
procedure is listed
in

PREPARATION
FOR
ALIGNMENT
1.
Perform all alignments at
normal
ambient
tem-
perature.
2. Remove the
top
cover of the unit to
be
aligned.
3.
Turn
on the unit to be aligned, allowing a warmup
time
of 15
minutes before
starting
alignment.

1.
Remove low
voltage

cover and turn
on
System
Analyzer.
2.
Connect a DVM
to
test point TP5 on the Output
board
A5.
3.
Adjust

(Figure 3-1)
for a DVM

3.2.2
CRT INTENSITY BIAS
1.
Select
Scope DC display and Ext
Horiz
input
mode
on the
System Analyzer. Set the
Intensity
control
fully counter clockwise.
CAUTION
Do not
let
a dot
stay
in one
place
on
the
CRT
screen
for more than
30
seconds because
it
will
leave
a
permanent
burn
in
the
phosphor.
2. Adjust the
Intensity Bias
potentiometer on
t
he
Scope
Amplifier board
(Figure
3-2) until
a dot
appears on the
screen.
You may
have
to
use
the
Vertical
and Horizontal
position control
(Vert,
Horiz)
on the
front
panel to
bring
the dot
onto
t
he
screen.
Then
back off
t
he
Intensity Bias
poten-
tiometer until the dot just
disappears.
3.2.3 CRT
INTENSITY BALANCE
1.
Select Scope DC display and
a
horizontal sweep
rate of
1
mSec/Div
on
the System Analyzer. Set
the
horizontal time base vernier to calibrate
(Cal)
and
adjust the
Intensity
control
for
a barely
visible
horizontal line
on
the
CRT.
2.
Adjust
the
Intensity
Balance potentiometer
(Figure
3-2) for
uniform
intensity
of
t
he
horizon-
tal trace from left
to
right.
The Balance
poten-
tiometer
affects the
intensity
on
the left
side of
the
trace.
