Wg k7500 monitor adjustment
« on: December 26, 2016, 07:29:09 pm »
I have a monitor chassis I just capped. Think it's a wgk7500 everything is good and clear, I would just like to make an adjustment as the monitor does not seem plumb for a lack of a better word. The picture needs a slight adjustment counter clockwise. I'm not sure what this adjustment is called, but is it possible to adjust the picture slightly clockwise or counter clockwise? Thanks

do you mean the whole picture needs to  be slightly rotated to make it square -you would need to rotate the deflection yoke fractionally

Ok I had a closer look and it is only the bottom part of the screen that is not running true, I also have a bit of a pincushion issue on the one side in order to get it perfect. I'll Attach a pic.

+1. I had a similar issue. I called the guy I bought it from and he told me where the trapezoid adjustment was.
Mine is not a WG, otherwise I would post a pic of the location.

Yes, tried adjusting the pots and no real change that I could see.
