Abstract
A service switch arrangement for a color television receiver having a low level matrixing system developing red, blue and green color signals includes a service switch having a normal position and a service position. In the normal position of the switch, a video output amplifier is enabled for coupling the red, blue and green color signals to the electron gun cathode elements of a color cathode ray tube. In the service position of the switch, the video output amplifier is disabled while an independently generated DC control voltage is coupled to the electron gun cathode elements for facilitating adjustment of the cut-off points of the cathode elements.
