Aging Conditions: Apply an all white signal 100-IRE, minimum 30 min to a maximum of 1 hr. (over an hour, causes the CRTs to heat past the optimum adjustment point), OR TV signal (with moving picture) minimum 2 hrs (no maximum time applies). If this method of aging is used, be sure to coordinate with the customer/dealer beforehand so that the set is ready upon your arrival. Use Vivid picture mode setting on TV. Order of Adjustments: Please follow the order of adjustments as stated in this document. This will maximize results while minimizing readjustment.
