Hi all,
I've recently been restoring an old Tektronix 465B oscilloscope. I've gotten it mostly working, but am having trouble with the X-Y mode. The normal sweep is positioned in the right spot horizontally. (in the center of the horizontal adjustment knob) But when I switch the oscilloscope into X-Y mode the dot is significantly shifted to the left. Is there an adjustment somewhere that can adjust the default horizontal position in the X-Y mode without interfering with the horizontal position of the sweep? I have already had a look throughout the service manual, the calibration procedure and the schematics to no avail.
Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by "significantly"?
How does the issue change when you change the X-channel control settings?
-
as in when both channels a GND coupled, and the horizontal position control is at it's right most position, the dot is still to the left of the center line

The X position can be affected by the correct setting of the trimmer R1126 "CH1 TRIG DC BALLANCE" on the CH1 preamp board. (1)
