Adjusting the picture on a Wells Gardner D9800
« on: May 22, 2009, 03:12:22 am »
Recently got one of these and the monitor's controls are rather basic.  There is the standard stuff but there is no convergence for example and that is something I could really stand to adjust as text in Windows is slightly doubled looking.  Is there other ways of adjusting the picture on these monitors or any tips you all might have?  This is my first CRT.  Thanks!

You'll need a mirror.

Weird, you don't have an on screen display?  My D9400 lets me do all sorts of things to adjust the picture.

Mine D9800 has a on screen display you just need to use the switches that are zip tied to the back of the monitor

Ahem, convergence is generally not available via the OSD on these monitors. You have to manually adjust the rings on the yoke.

Adjust the rings on the yoke?  Is there a guide or something anywhere I could look at to show me how to do this?

I correct myself, in that, according to a tech at WG, this monitor is not designed for user-serviceable convergence adjustment. The rings are sealed inside a ring cap.
