Adjustment Ul voltage
1. Set the contrast and brightness to minimum.
2. Connect test point XFOI (chassis board) to ground.
3. Go to service menu 1 (see service mode).
4. Use cursor button A or v to select Ul-adjustment.
5. Adjust with cursor button 4 or)
IlOV f IV 14” (Philips/Samtel ) and 20” (Videocolor)
135V i IV 21” (Philips)
150V + IV 25” and 28” (Videocolor)
6. Use OK (M) memory button to store the value into the memory.
7. Remove XFOl/ground connection.
8. Return to normal TV mode by pressing the TV button.
AGC
1. Connect test point XFOl (Chassis board) to ground.
2. Feed in RF signal without sound carrier with 72 dBpV (= 4mV) on a
medium UHF channel via the aerial input.
3. Go to service menu 1 (see service mode).
4. Use cursor button A or v to select AGC adjustment.
5. Connect oscilloscope (Bandwidth > 50 MHz) to the tuner’s IF output
(test point XL03 or XLO4) and to ground (XLO2).
6. Use cursor button 4 and) to adjust 350 mVpp +O/-50mV with
reference to the signal’s synchronizing peaks.
7. Use OK (M) memory button to store the value into the memory.
8. Remove XFOl/ground connection.
9. Return to normal TV mode by pressing the TV button.
Other service adjustments
Horizontal amplitude
Adjust 90” CRTs horizontal amplitude with coil LK 12.
Adjust 110” SQ and FST - CRT’s with resistor RK66.
Vertical position
Adjust vertical position by severing resistor RS24, and/or RS14.
Focus
Use focus adjuster TK02 (at horizontal transformer) to set the focus to
optimum sharpness.
Cushion
Adjust 110” SQ and FST CRT’s with resistor RK60.
G2 and colour temperature
1. Set the UG2 adjustment (the lower adjustment at horizontal
transformer) to its middle position.
2. Select the IDEAL picture setting and switch the set to AV programme
number or other black screen picture.
3. Using the oscilloscope with 1OO:l probe determine the colour cathode
with the highest black level measuring pulse at IC NHOl,
pins 9, 12 and 15.
4. Adjust the highest measuring pulse to 150V (measured against ground).
AFC
1. Feed in symmetric IF signal (ca. 0,8 Vpp) by means of 4:l transmitter at
test points XL 03 and XL 04. (38,9 MHz for standard BG, DK and 39,5
MHz for standard I)
2. At test point XL 01 (XL 02 to ground) set 3,5 V DC i 0,5 V with coil ZL 01
(AFC reference).
3. Multistandard set, standard L’: After proper BG adjustment select a
channel in band 1 (L’-range). Activate standard L in Tuning menu.
Feed in symmetric IF signal (ca. 0,8 Vpp) by means of 4:l transmitter at
test points XL 03 and XL 04. (33,9 MHz for standard L’) At test point XL
01 (XL 02 to ground) set 3,5 V DC + 0,5 V with capacitor CL 05.
AFC check
Detune the IF signal to approx. 39 MHz (39,7 MHz, 34 MHz). Then the
voltage must drop to approx. IV.
Sound of multistandard sets
(standard BG, DK or standard I)
Make the standard adjustment as follows:
1. RCF remote control unit: Press the PROG button.
RCN remote control unit: Press the blue MENU button twice.
2. Select the menu line Tuning, Manual tuning.
3. Select STANDARD BG, DK or I with cursor buttons 4 and ).
4. Store the setting by pressing the OK (M) button.
5. Return to normal TV viewing by pressing the TV button.
AM sound (multistandard module)
1. Connect a sweep generator with 30-40 MHz marking to pin 14 of AL-
connector.
2. Connect an oscilloscope to pin 11 of AL-connector.
3. Connect a control voltage supply to pin 3 of TDA 9830.
4. L standard: The voltage at pin 09 of AL-connector = 0 V.
Set the output amplitude to 200 mV by means of the control voltage and
keep this value during the adjustment.
Adjust the amplitude of 34,2 MHz to maximum with ZL 651 and ZL 652.
5. After proper L-adjustment:
L’ standard: The voltage at pin 10 of AL-connector = 12 V.
Set the output amplitude to 200 mV by means of the control voltage and
keep this value during the adjustment.
Adjust the amplitude of 40,4 MHz to maximum with RL 673.
