Only qualified service technicians who are familiar with safety checks
and guidelines should perform service work. Before replacing parts,
disconnect power source to protect electrostatically sensitive parts. Do
not attempt to modify any circuit unless so recommended by the
manufacturer. When servicing the receiver, use an isolation transformer
between the line cord and power receptacle.
SERVICING THE HIGH VOLTAGE AND CRT
Use EXTREME CAUTION when servicing the high voltage circuits. To
discharge static high voltage, connect a 10K ohms resistor in series with a
test lead between the receiver ground and CRT anode lead. DO NOT lift
the CRT by the neck. Always wear shatterproof goggles when handling
the CRT to protect eyes in case of implosion.
X-RAY RADIATION AND HIGH VOLTAGE LIMITS
Be aware of the instructions and procedures covering X-ray radiation. In
solid-state receivers and monitors, the CRT is the only potential source of
X-rays. Keep an accurate high voltage meter available at all times. Check
meter calibration periodically. Whenever servicing a receiver, check the
high voltage at various brightness levels to be sure it is regulating
properly. Keep high voltage at rated value, NO HIGHER. Excessive high
voltage may cause X-ray radiation or failure of associated components.
DO NOT depend on protection circuits to keep voltage at rated value.
When troubleshooting a receiver with excessive high voltage, avoid close
contact with the CRT. DO NOT operate the receiver longer than
necessary. To locate the cause of excessive high voltage, use a variable
AC transformer to regulate voltage. In present receivers, many electrical
and mechanical components have safety related characteristics which are
not detectable by visual inspection. Such components are identified by a
# on both the schematic and the parts list. For SAFETY, use only
equivalent replacement parts when replacing these components.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Perform a final SAFETY CHECK before returning receiver to customer.
Check repaired area for poorly soldered connections, and check entire
circuit board for solder splashes. Check board wiring for pinched wires or
wires contacting any high wattage resistors. Check that all control knobs,
shields, covers, grounds, and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be
sure to replace all insulators and restore proper lead dress.
SAFETY CHECKS FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
Cold Leakage Checks for Receivers with Isolated Ground
Unplug the AC cord, connect a jumper across the plug prongs, and turn
the power switch on (if applicable). Use an ohmmeter to measure the
resistance between the jumped AC plug and any exposed metal cabinet
parts such as antenna screw heads, control shafts, or handle brackets.
Exposed metal parts with a return path should measure between 1M
ohms and 5.2M ohms. Parts without a return path must measure infinity.
Hot Leakage Current Check
Plug the AC cord directly into an AC outlet. DO NOT use an isolation
transformer. Use a 1500 ohms, 10W resistor in parallel with a .15µF
capacitor to connect between any exposed metal parts on the receiver and
a good earth ground. (See figure below.) Use an AC voltmeter with at
least 5000 ohms per volt sensitivity to measure the voltage across the
resistor. Check all exposed metal parts and measure voltage at each point.
Voltage measurements should not exceed .75VAC, 500µA. Any value
exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be
corrected. If the AC plug is not polarized, reverse the AC plug and repeat
exposed metal part voltage measurement at each point.

MISCELLANEOUS ADJUSTMENTS
B+ ADJUSTMENT
1. Tune the set to receive a crosshatch signal.
2. Set the preset picture in the normal mode.
3. Check for 130VDC +/- 1.0V at C828.
RF AGC ADJUSTMENT
The RF AGC is preset at the factory for optimum operation over a wide
range of RF signal input conditions. Readjustment should not be required,
unless the tuner has been repaired or replaced.
Adjustment of the RF AGC parameters may not be apparent, adjusting the
RF AGC from one extreme of its limits to another will render a poor signal
to noise ratio on one end, while adjustments to the other end of its limits
may cause degradation or overload conditions, adjacent channel interference. Use the weakest local signal when adjusting the RF AGC if adjustments are made check all local channels for proper operation.
Input 60db gray scale signal at 100% modulation through the tuner from
the RF-IF output of a video generator, enter the service mode and press 4
on the remote control to select the RF AGC adjustment. Press the INFO
key on the remote control to auto adjust the RF AGC. The status will
change to ‘active’ when the adjustment is complete. The value can be
changed by using the left and right navigation arrows on the remote
control.
SCREEN ADJUSTMENT
Tune the set to receive a crosshatch signal, set the picture color temperature
to normal, set picture brightness and contrast controls to midrange. Enter
the service mode and press the go back button on the remote control, this
will collapse the vertical to a horizontal line. Adjust the screen control to
produce a dim horizontal line, then press the GO Back button on the
remote control to restore the picture.
FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
Tune the set to receive a crosshatch signal adjust the focus control for the
best overall focus.
COLOR TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Perform the screen adjustment, set the picture color temperature to normal
set picture brightness and contrast controls to midrange. Tune the set to
receive a gray scale stair-step test pattern. Enter the service mode to menu
1 and adjust the value of the high and low controls to proper color tracking
no tinting only black and white and shades of gray the correct color
temperature is 9300 degrees, check the low light to hi light for gray scale
tracking.
SUB BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT
Tune the set to receive a gray scale stair-step test pattern using the A/V
inputs set the picture temperature to ‘normal’ using the customer menu, set
picture brightness and contrast controls to midrange. Enter the service
mode to select Menu 6 with the remote control. Adjust the value of BRTC
Sub-brightness to just lighten the second bar making sure the first bar
remains black.
X-RAY PROTECTION TEST
Tune the set to receive a crosshatch signal. Apply an external power supply
voltage to C417 observe polarity slowly increase the voltage from the
power supply. The set must shut down and remain off when the voltage
reaches 30 volts DC.
ENTERING THE INITIAL SCREEN
To view the initial screen, press the volume down button on the set to
decrease the volume.
to a minimum and while holding the volume down on the set, press the 0
key on the remote two times. Press 0 once again to enter the service mode.
The (example) screen below will be displayed.
To enter the service mode from power on, press the volume down button
on the set to decrease the volume to a minimum and while holding the
volume down on the set, press the 0 key on the remote three times to enter
the service mode.
