In the event of malfunction with electrical circuits, troubleshooting with the aid of proper test instruments most be
done first, and then commence necessary repair, replacement and adjustment, etc.
1. In case of wiring to chip test points for measurement, use
IC clips, etc. to avoid any stress.
2. Since connectors are fragile, carefully handle them in
disconnecting and connecting.
3. Shortcircuit between operation un it and DECK chassis.
2. Required test equipment
1. Color TV monitor.
2. AC power adapter
3. Oscilloscope (dual-trace type, observable 100 MHz or
higher frequency)
* It is recommended to use one observable 300 MHz or
higher frequency.
4. Digital voltmeter
5. Frequency counter (with threshold level adjuster)
6. Personal computer
3. Required adjustment tools
For detsails of special jigs necessary for adjustment, refer to
page 1-2 and 1-3 of the Section 1.
4. Setup for E. VF section adjustment
(For GR-AX640U/UC)
Referring to “SEC. 1 DISASSEMBLY” and connect the E.VF
WIRE to CN12 of the MAIN board.
