Replacement of Memory
ICs
1. Memory IC
This TV uses a non-volatile memory IC
(EEP-ROM IC). In the memory IC are memorised data for correctly operating the video and
deflection circuits. When replacing it, be sure to
use a memory IC containing the initial values,
(not a blank one).
2. Procedure for Replacing Memory ICs
1) Power off
Switch the power off and unplug the power
cord from the outlet.
2) Replacing the memory IC
Replace with new memory IC containing the
initial values.
3) Power on
Plug the power cord into the outlet and switch
the power on.
4) Check and Set System Constant Set
1: Press the Display key and the Cinema/Game
key of the Remote Control Unit simultaneously.
2: The Service Menu screen shown in fig. 1 will
be displayed.
3: While the Service Menu is displayed, press
the Display key and Cinema/Game key
simultaneously and the System Constant Set
screen shown in fig. 2 will be displayed.
4: Check the setting value of the System
Constant Set shown in table 1. If the value is
different, select the setting item with the
Function Up/Down key, and set the correct
value with the Function -/+ key.
5:Press the Video/Sound key and memorise the
setting value.
6:Press the Display key twice and return to the
normal screen.
