DP27/27D

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION

1. Before returning an instrument to the customer, always make a safety check of the entire instrument, including but not limited to the following items.

a. Be sure that no built-in protective devices are

defective and/or have been deleted during servicing. (1) Protective shields are provided on this chassis to protect both the technician and the customer. Correctly replace all missing protective shields, including any removed for servicing convenience. (2) When reinstalling the chassis and/or other assembly in the cabinet, be sure to put back in place all protective devices, including but not limited to, nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpaper, adjustment and compartment covers/shields, and isolation resistor/capacitor networks. Do not operate

this instrument or permit it to be operated without all protective devices correctly installed and functioning. Servicers who defeat safety features or fail to perform safety checks may be liable for any resulting damage.

b. Be sure that there are no cabinet openings through

which an adult or child might be able to insert their fingers and contact a hazardous voltage. Such openings include, but are not limited to (1) spacing between the picture tube and cabinet mask, (2) excessively wide cabinet ventilation slots, and (3) an improperly fitted and/or incorrectly secured cabinet back cover.

c. Antenna Cold Check – With the instrument AC plug

removed from any AC source, connect an electrical jumper across the two AC plug prongs. Place the instrument AC switch in the on position. Connect one lead of an ohmmeter to the AC plug prongs tied together and touch the other ohmmeter lead in turn to each tuner antenna input, exposed terminal screw and, if applicable, to the coaxial connector. If the measured resistance is less than 1.0 megohms or greater than 5.2 megohms, an abnormality exists that must be corrected before the instrument is returned to the customer. Repeat this test with the instrument AC switch in the off position.

d. Leakage Current Hot Check – With the instrument

completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation transformer during this test.) Use a leakage current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.0 Leakage Current for Appliances and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 1410, (50.7). With the instrument AC switch first in the on position and then in the off position, measure from a known earth ground (metal waterpipe, conduit, etc.) to all exposed metal parts of the instrument (antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screw heads, metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis. Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milliamps. Reverse the instrument power cord plug in the outlet and repeat test.

ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS SPECIFIED HEREIN INDICATE A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD THAT MUST BE ELIMINATED BEFORE RETURNING THE INSTRUMENT TO THE CUSTOMER OR BEFORE CONNECTING THE ANTENNA OR ACCESSORIES.

e. High Voltage – This receiver is provided with a hold

down circuit for clearly indicating that voltage has increased in excess of a predetermined value. Comply will all notes described in this Service Manual regarding this hold down circuit when servicing, so that this hold down circuit may correctly be operated.

f. Service Warning – With maximum contrast, operating

high voltage in this receiver is lower than 30.5 kV. In case any component having influence on high voltage is replaced, confirm that the high voltage with maximum contrast is lower than 30.5 kV. To measure H.V. use a high impedance H.V. meter. Connect (-) to chassis earth and (+) to the CRT anode button. (See the following connection diagram.)

Note: Turn power switch off without fail before the

connection to the anode button is made.

g. X-radiation – TUBE: The primary source of X-

radiation in this receiver is the picture tube. The tube utilized for the above mentioned function in this chassis is specially constructed to limit X-radiation emissions. For continued X-radiation protection, the replacement tube must be the same type as the original, Hitachi approved type. When troubleshooting and making test measurements in a receiver with a problem of excessive high voltage, avoid being unnecessarily close to the picture tube and the high voltage component. Do not operate the chassis longer than is necessary to locate the cause of excessive voltage.

h. X-radiation Shield –

1. This receiver is provided with X-ray shield plates for protection against X-radiation. Do not remove X-ray shield plates A, B, or C shown in Fig. 1 unnecessarily, when troubleshooting and/or making test measurements.

2. To prevent X-radiation, after replacement of picture tube and lens, confirm these components to be fixed correctly to bracket and cabinet, and not to be taken off easily.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DP27/27D

2. Read and comply with all caution and safety-related notes on or inside the receiver cabinet, on the receiver chassis, or on the picture tube.

3. Design Alteration Warning – Do not alter or add to the mechanical or electrical design of this TV receiver. Design alterations and additions including but not limited to circuit modifications and the addition of items such as auxiliary audio and/or video output connectors, might alter the safety characteristics of this receiver and create a hazard to the user. Any design alterations or additions may void the manufacturer’s warranty and may make you, the servicer, responsible for personal injury or property damage resulting therefrom.

4. Picture Tube Implosion Protection Warning – The picture tube in this receiver employs integral implosion protection. For continued implosion protection, replace the picture tube only with one of the same type number. Do not remove, install, or otherwise handle the picture tube in any manner without first putting on shatterproof goggles equipped with side shields. People not so equipped must be kept safely away while picture tubes are handled. Keep the picture tube away from your body. Do not handle the picture tube by its neck.

5. Hot Chassis Warning – a. Some TV receiver chassis are electrically connected directly to one conductor of the AC power cord and may be safely serviced without an isolation transformer only if the AC power plug is inserted so that the chassis is connected to the ground side of the AC power source. Confirm that the AC power plug is inserted correctly with an AC voltmeter by measuring between the chassis and a known earth ground. If a voltage reading in excess of

1.0V is obtained, remove and reinsert the AC power plug in the opposite polarity and again measure the voltage potential between the chassis and a known earth ground. b. Some TV receiver chassis normally have 85V AC (RMS) between chassis and earth ground regardless of the AC plug polarity. These chassis can be safely serviced only with an isolation transformer inserted in the power line between the receiver and the AC power source, for both personnel and test equipment protection. c. Some TV receiver chassis have a secondary ground system in addition to the main chassis ground. This secondary ground system is not isolated from the AC power line. The two ground systems are electrically separated by insulating material that must not be defeated or altered.

6. Observe original lead dress. Take extra care to assure correct lead dress in the following areas: a. near sharp edges, b. near thermally hot parts – be sure that leads and components do not touch thermally hot parts, c. the AC supply, d. high voltage and e. antenna wiring. Always inspect in all areas for pinched, out-ofplate, or frayed wiring. Do not change spacing between components and the printed circuit board. Check AC power cord for damage.

7. Components, parts, and/or wiring that appear to have overheated or are otherwise damaged should be replaced with components, parts, or wiring that meet original specifications. Additionally, determine the cause of overheating and/or damage and, if necessary, take corrective action to remove any potential safety hazard.

8. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE – Many TV electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics some of which are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can the protection they give necessarily be obtained by replacing them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified in Hitachi service data by shading on schematics and by a in the parts list. Use of substitute replacement that does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part in Hitachi service data parts list might create shock, fire, and/or other hazards. Product safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever appropriate. For the latest information, always consult the appropriate current Hitachi service literature. A subscription to, or additional copies of service literature may be obtained at a nominal charge from Hitachi.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DP27/27D

CAUTION: Before servicing instruments covered by this service data and its supplements and addenda, read and follow the “Important Safety Instructions” on page 3 of this publication. NOTE: If unforeseen circumstances create conflict between the following servicing precautions and any of the safety precautions on page 3 of this publication, always follow the safety precautions. Remember: Safety First.

General Servicing Guidelines

1. Always unplug the instrument AC power cord from the AC power source before: a. Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit

board, module, or any other instrument assembly.

b. Disconnecting or reconnecting any instrument

electrical plug or other electrical connection.

c. Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an

electrolytic capacitor in the instrument.

CAUTION: A wrong part substitution or incorrect

polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result in an explosion hazard.

d. Discharging the picture tube anode.

2. Test high voltage only by measuring it with an appropriate high voltage meter or other voltage measuring device (DVM, FETVOM, etc.) equipped with a suitable high voltage probe. Do not test high voltage by “drawing an arc.” The H.V. Distribution Box has an internal 400MΩ resistor (bleeder resistor) connected from the high voltage to ground. After power is removed from the instrument the high voltage will discharge through the high voltage bleeder resistor. If the tubes have high voltage after power is removed, then the bleeder resistor is defective or the bleeder ground is disconnected.

3. Discharge the picture tube’s anode at any of the R, G, or B outputs on the H.V. Distribution Box only by (a) first connecting one end of an insulated clip lead to the degaussing or kine aquadag grounding system shield at the point where the picture tube socket ground lead is connected, and then (b) touch the other end of the insulated clip lead to the picture tube high voltage distribution box R, G, or B output, using an insulated handle to avoid personal contact with high voltage.

4. Do not spray chemicals on or near this instrument or any of its assemblies.

5. Unless specified otherwise in these service data, clean electrical contracts by applying the following mixture to the contacts with a pipe cleaner, cotton-tipped stick or comparable nonabrasive applicator: 10% (by volume) Acetone and 90% (by volume) isopropyl alcohol (90%99% strength). CAUTION: This is a flammable mixture. Unless

specified otherwise in these service data, lubrication of contacts is not required.

6. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with which instruments covered by this service data might be equipped.

7. Do not apply AC power to this instrument and/or any of its electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heatsinks are correctly installed.

8. Always connect the test instrument ground lead to the appropriate instrument chassis ground before connecting the test instrument positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground lead last.

9. Use with this instrument only the test fixtures specified in this service data. CAUTION: Do not connect the test fixture ground strap

to any heatsink in this instrument.

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some fieldeffect transistors and semiconductor “chip” components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.

3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or desolder ES devices.

4. Use only can anti-static type solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “antistatic” can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES device.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive material.)

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.

CAUTION: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or

circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS

DP27/27D

General Soldering Guidelines

1. Use a grounded-tip, low-wattage soldering iron and appropriate tip size and shape that will maintain tip temperature within the range 500°F to 600°F.

2. Use an appropriate gauge of resin-core solder composed of 60 parts tin/40 parts lead.

3. Keep the soldering iron tip clean and well-tinned.

4. Thoroughly clean the surfaces to be soldered. Use a small wire-bristle (0.5 inch or 1.25 cm) brush with a metal handle. Do not use freon-propelled spray-on cleaners.

5. Use the following desoldering technique. a. Allow the soldering iron tip to reach normal

temperature (500°F to 600°F).

b. Heat the component lead until the solder melts.

Quickly draw away the melted solder with an antistatic, suction-type solder removal device or with solder braid. CAUTION: Work quickly to avoid overheating the

circuit board printed foil.

6. Use the following soldering technique. a. Allow the soldering iron tip to reach normal

temperature (500°F to 600°F).

b. First, hold the soldering iron tip and solder strand

against the component lead until the solder melts.

c. Quickly move the soldering iron tip to the junction of

the component lead and the printed circuit foil, and hold it there only until the solder flows onto and around both the component lead and the foil. CAUTION: Work quickly to avoid overheating the

circuit board printed foil or components.

d. Closely inspect the solder area and remove any

excess or splashed solder with a small wire-bristle brush.

Removal

1. Desolder and straighten each IC lead in one operation by gently prying up on the lead with the soldering iron tip as the solder melts.

2. Draw away the melted solder with an anti-static suctiontype solder removal device (or with solder braid) before removing the IC.

Replacement

1. Carefully insert the replacement IC in the circuit board.

2. Carefully bend each IC lead against the circuit foil pad and solder it.

3. Clean the soldered areas with a small wire-bristle brush. (It is not necessary to reapply acrylic coating to areas.)

“Small-signal” Discrete Transistor Removal/Replacement

1. Remove the defective transistor by clipping its leads as close as possible to the component body.

2. Bend into a “U” shape the end of each of three leads remaining on the circuit board.

3. Bend into a “U” shape the replacement transistor leads.

4. Connect to replacement transistor leads to the corresponding leads extending from the circuit board and crimp the “U” with long nose pliers to insure metal to metal contact, then solder each connection.

Power Output Transistor Devices Removal/Replacements

1. Heat and remove all solder from around the transistor leads.

2. Remove the heatsink mounting screw (if so equipped).

3. Carefully remove the transistor from the circuit board.

4. Insert new transistor in circuit board.

5. Solder each transistor lead, and clip off excess lead.

6. Replace heatsink.

Diode Removal/Replacement

1. Remove defective diode by clipping its leads as close as possible to diode body.

2. Bend the two remaining leads perpendicularly to the circuit board.

3. Observing diode polarity, wrap each lead of the new diode around the corresponding lead on the circuit board.

4. Securely crimp each connection and solder it.

5. Inspect (on the circuit board copper side) the solder joints of the two “original leads”. If they are not shiny, reheat them and, if necessary, apply additional solder.

Use Solding Iron to Pry Leads

IC Removal/Replacement

Some Hitachi unitized chassis circuit boards have slotted holes (oblong) through which the IC leads are inserted and then bent flat against the circuit foil. When holes are the slotted type, the following technique should be used to remove and replace the IC. When working with boards using the familiar round hole, use the standard technique as outlined in paragraphs 5 and 6 above.

SERVICING PRECATIONS

DP27/27D

Fuses and Conventional Resistor Removal/Replacement

1. Clip each fuse or resistor lead at top of circuit board hollow stake.

2. Securely crimp leads of replacement component around stake 1/8 inch from top.

3. Solder the connections.

CAUTION: Maintain original spacing between the

replaced component and adjacent components and the circuit board, to prevent excessive component temperatures.

Circuit Board Foil Repair

Excessive heat applied to the copper foil of any printed circuit board will weaken the adhesive that bonds the foil to the circuit board, causing the foil to separate from, or “liftoff,” the board. The following guidelines and procedures should be followed whenever this condition is encountered.

In Critical Copper Pattern Areas High component/copper pattern density and/or special voltage/current characteristics make the spacing and integrity of copper pattern in some circuit board areas more critical than in others. The circuit foil in these areas is designated as Critical Copper Pattern. Because Critical Copper Pattern requires special soldering techniques to ensure the maintenance of reliability and safety standards, contact your Hitachi personnel.

At IC Connections To repair defective copper pattern at IC connections, use the following procedure to install a jumper wire on the copper pattern side of the circuit board. (Use this technique only on IC connections.)

1. Carefully remove the damaged copper pattern with a sharp knife. (Remove only as much copper as absolutely necessary.)

2. Carefully scratch away the solder resist and acrylic coating (if used) from the end of the remaining copper pattern.

3. Bend a small “U” in one end of a small-gauge jumper wire and carefully crimp it around the IC pin. Solder the IC connection.

4. Route the jumper wire along the path of the cut-away copper pattern and let it overlap the previously scraped end of the good copper pattern. Solder the overlapped area, and clip off any excess jumper wire.

1. Remove the defective copper pattern with a sharp knife. Remove at least 1/4 inch of copper, to ensure hazardous condition will not exist if the jumper wire opens.

2. Trace along the copper pattern from both wire sides of the pattern break and locate the nearest component directly connected to the affected copper pattern.

3. Connect insulated 20-gauge jumper wire from the nearest component on one side of the pattern break to the lead of the nearest component on the other side. Carefully crimp and solder the connections.

CAUTION: Be sure the insulated jumper wire is

dressed so that it does not touch components or sharp edges.

Frequency Synthesis (FS) Tuning Systems

1. Always unplug the instrument AC power cord before disconnecting or reconnecting FS tuning system cables and before removing or inserting FS tuning system modules.

2. The FS tuner must never be disconnected from the FS tuning control module while power is applied to the instrument.

3. When troubleshooting intermittent problems that might be caused by defective cable connection(s) to the FS tuning system, remove the instrument AC power as soon as the defective connector is found and finish confirming the bad connection with a continuity test. This procedure will reduce the probability of electrical overstress of the FS system semi-conductor components.

DP27/27D

Leadless Chip Components (surface mount)

Chip components must be replaced with identical chips due to critical foil track spacing. There are no holes in the board to mount standard transistors or diodes. Some chip capacitor or resistor board solder pads may have holes through the board, however the hole diameter limits standard resistor replacement to 1/8 watt. Standard capacitors may also be limited for the same reason. It is recommended that identical chip components be used. . Chip resistors have a three digit numerical resistance code -1st and 2nd significant digits and a multiplier. Example: 162 = 1600 or 1.6KΩ resistor, 0 = 0Ω (jumper). Chip capacitors generally do not have the value indicated on the capacitor. The color of the component indicates the general range of the capacitance. Chip transistors are identified by a two letter code. The first letter indicates the type and the second letter, the grade of transistor. Chip diodes have a two letter identification code as per the code chart and are a dual diode pack with either common anode or common cathode. Check the parts list for correct diode number.

Component Removal

1. Use solder wick to remove solder from component end caps or terminals.

2. Without pulling up, carefully twist the component with tweezers to break the adhesive.

3. Do not reuse removed leadless or chip components since they are subject to stress fracture during removal .

Chip Component Installation

1. Put a small amount of solder on the board soldering pads.

2. Hold the chip component against the soldering pads with tweezers or with a miniature alligator clip and apply heat to the pad area with a 30 watt iron until solder flows. Do not apply heat for more than 3 seconds

How to Replace Flat-lC —Required Tools—

• Soldering iron • iron wire or small awl

• De-solder braids • Magnifier

1. Remove the solder from all of the pins of a Flat-lC by using a de-solder braid.

2. Put the iron wire under the pins of the Flat-lC and pull it in the direction indicated while heating the pins using a soldering iron. A small awl can be used instead of the iron wire.

3. Remove the solder from all of the pads of the Fiat-lC by using a de-solder braid.

4. Position the new Flat-lC in place (apply the pins of the Flat-lC to the soldering pads where the pins need to be soldered). Properly determine the positions of the soldering pads and pins by correctly aligning the polarity symbol.

6. Check with a magnifier for solder bridge between

the pins or for dry joint between pins and soldering pads. To remove a solder bridge, use a de-solder braid as shown in the figure below.

NOTE: These components are affixed with glue. Be careful not to break or damage any foil under the component or at the pins of the ICs when removing. Usually applying heat to the component for a short time while twisting with tweezers will break the component loose.

MAGIC FOCUS

Auto Digital Convergence Adjustment

Please turn ON your television for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.

The Magic Focus button will not work when Adjustment Mode is set to Manual (see page 17).

Your HITACHI Projection TV has three color projection tubes: one for red, one for green, one for blue. When mixed together in the proper proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce these colors, however, the beams must be precisely aligned over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.

Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or moving the TV. If you move your TV, or if, after a time, you notice color rings or halos around objects in the picture, you may want to converge (align) the colors.

Properly converged, the lines appear white, which is actually a combination of the outputs of the three color tubes. The output of the green tube is stationary. The outputs of the red and blue tubes can be adjusted. When properly aligned, the outputs of all three tubes should be directly over each other to produce the white lines.

To simplify convergence, HITACHI incorporates a function called MAGIC FOCUS located on the front control panel, which allows the TV to self-adjust. Press this MAGIC FOCUS button and the convergence self adjustment will start and this process will take approximately 20 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 20 second self-adjust period, picture quality will be optimum. (Do not move the TV during self-adjust.)

You may also select Magic Focus from the VIDEO menu.

Magic Focus

NOTES: Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITAL CONVERGENCE. At any

time during this convergence correction process, you may press the MAGIC FOCUS button to exit the MAGIC FOCUS mode. However, the convergence correction process needs to be completed to SAVE the new corrected convergence data.

FEATURE INFORMATION

As the digital era dawns, Hitachi has models that provide the best possible images today...and tomorrow. Our HDTV Ready model incorporates new Flex Converter technology to display a high quality 1080i (high definition scanning) or 540P (progressive scanning) image; this same circuitry enables it to accept a full 1080i HDTV signal from a digital set-top box now or in the future.

FLEX CONVERTER TECHNOLOGY

With current analog broadcasts, there is just one level of picture quality. In the new age of digital TV, there will be several levels. The highest, called HDTV, can be as high as 1080i.The next level, called HDTV, can be 720P. The standard level, SDTV, can be 480P or 480i. Hitachi has developed the Flex Converter, advanced circuitry that allows your UltraVision TWX and SWX series television to produce true 1080i HDTV resolution with an HDTV set-top box. It converts analog 480i signals to the higher-quality 540P signals with no scan lines or flicker. The TWX and SWX needs a set-top box to receive any Digital Signal.

COMPONENT VIDEO

Component Video inputs accept separate blue, red & B/W signals from a high resolution digital source as DVD or digital settop box to provide a higher resolution picture.

3DYC (DIGITAL 3DYC COMB FILTER)

The Digital 3DYC Comb Filter analyzes three lines of information from a single video frame as well as lines from adjacent frames. This technology eliminates the flickering that a detailed pattern or scene would normally cause, for the cleanest, neatest picture possible.

PROGRESSIVE SCANNING

A standard TV uses Interlaced Scanning where each frame of video is broken into two fields, each providing alternating scan lines. This can leave noticeable scan lines and cause flickering. With Progressive Scanning, complete frames are displayed for a smoother picture with no scan lines and no flicker. This allows you to get the optimal picture quality from today’s high resolution digital sources such as DVD or a digital set-top box.

DP27/27D

ASPECT STYLE

Press the ASPECT button on the Remote Control to quickly change the ASPECT ratio.

Depending on the input signal, the picture format ratio allows you to adjust the images through the following options.

4:3 STANDARD Use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) images. Side panels (gray areas) are placed to the

left and right of the image to preserve the original aspect ratio of the source. Note: Use this mode for only 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age more rapidly than the gray areas.

4:3 EXPANDED Use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) sources by expanding the outer edges of the image

to fill the 16:9 screen. The center of the image remains unaltered.

4:3 Zoom1/Zoom2 Use these aspect modes to zoom in on conventional (4:3) sources.

16:9 STANDARD Use this aspect mode to display 16:9 sources like HDTV and DVD’s preserving the original 16:9 aspect

ratio.

16:9 Zoom Use this aspect to Zoom-in once while in 16:9 aspect.

*IMPORTANT For many of the above adjustments, it is necessary to have an HDTV (1080i or 720P) signal generator, SDTV (480P) signal generator, as well as the usual NTSC (480i) signal generator. Hitachi recognizes that few companies offer HDTV or SDTV signal generators and that the cost of these generators is sometimes prohibitive. For this reason, we suggest the use of a set-top-box for HDTV and SDTV adjustments. Usually, there is a switch on the set-top-box which enables it to output HDTV (1080i or 720P) or SDTV (480P) signals even with no input. In this case, the sync is automatically detected by the TV (at the Y-P

BPR

Inputs on the rear panel).
