Check this link

Deflection Service Menu

It doesn't give any specific values but describes what each setting does from 0 to 17

I know from a previous thread that the AFC Angle should be about 25 to 27 (It is factory set to 31), RGB Shift -10 and rotation -1 or -2.

Hope this helps

Just seen the thread. Sorry, it is not that I cannot be "arsed", I have already replied on the matter with an explanation. It is virtual perfect and I want it to stay that way! Check one out in Currys.

Fair enough CDave, although i can assure you, it would be extremely hard to reset things by accident in your service menu as you are actually asked section by section if you are sure you want to change anything. Contributing to threads like this would be a good gesture, im sure you will need someones help on here sooner or later mate.

Ive actually been into Currys and wrote down pretty much everything in the Service Menu, (took me about 20mins)which helped, but it would be nice to have a few references to correct values rather than just one.

Are you going to post the settings that you noted in Currys?

At least its a start and something we can compare to anyone who posts their perfect settings.

Thanks for that Manuman. I thought I had contributed a fair amount to your original post but it now appears I am being unhelpful because I will not risk messing my set up even though it is hard to do apparenlty. As a further contribution, always write down original values before making adjustments. Anyway, at least you now have some values through my suggestion. I hope they work for you.

Explination?

I am learning the ropes with my FS76 setup. I finally got my third FS76 today (after two previous faulty ones).

The picture seems very good but can someone explain about the deflection set-up please?

What does it represent and how do I achieve an alteration if required?

Regards and thanks

Tom

Nice one ScottyToo for taking the time out to contribute as the values you posted have helped me a lot.


heres the values from a set in my local Currys, although they are way out for my own TV though, (the Vertical and Horizontal size are set too high for my screen)which is why i needed another reference.

44
25
31
29
17
37
35
31
27
26
8

@ScottyToo, any chance you could post some of the other values on your set, like Backend, Ext.Deflection, Dynamic Convergence and Colour Decoder 1&2 as well?

Threads like these will undoubtedly help those whose settings are not quite right as they give an idea of the range of values for each setting.

Here's the others that I did at the same time (One of the menus had 122 settings )
If you are really stuck I would try the values in the first column i.e. the defaults but I know nothing at all about these TVs so at your own risk

Backend
0
40
28
31
25
25
45
35
42

Ext. Deflection

119

Scottytoo, you are now my hero.

The values youve posted have pretty much returned my TV to its former glory before i did a factory reset to try and solve my original problem.

*telepathically makes scottytoo post the other values in the service menu too*

I typed all the values into my Psion.

TBH I can't be ar4ed to re-type them all. When I go back to work I'll connect it up and up link it.

I also noted all the ones that were non-default to speed up your process.
