11.176.9 Purpose
To present an undistorted display, the horizontal and vertical sweeps of the electron beam across the face of the
CRT should be at uniform speeds. Any non-uniformity in the sweep will cause portions of an image to be stretched
while other portions will be compressed. Non-linearity in a monitor can show up in several ways. It may be present
across the entire screen, a large portion of the screen, or it may be localized in a very small area.
11.176.10 Method
Adjust the display’s linearity controls so that all of the boxes in the crosshatch are identical in size. You can
measure the boxes with a ruler or with a gauge made for the monitor
under test. Any deviation should be within
your specification limits.
