metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna terminals, handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without danger of electrical
shock. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER DURING THIS
TEST. Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity in the
following manner: Connect a 1500 ohm, 10 watt resistor, paralleled by a .15 mfd
150V AC type capacitor between a known good earth ground water pipe, conduit,
etc.) and the exposed metallic parts, one at a time. Measure the AC voltage across
the combination of 1500 ohm resistor and .15 mfd capacitor. Reverse the AC plug
by using a non-polarized adaptor and repeat AC voltage measurements for each
exposed metallic part. Voltage measured must not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. This
corresponds to 0.5 milliamp AC. Any value exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. Never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely fitting shelf
space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated air flow.
2. Avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations where dew
is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor, etc.
3. Avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. The customer should also
avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that might obstruct ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit must follow
the factory-approved mounting instructions. A product mounted to a shelf or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent thickness in spacers) to provide
adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts or screws used for fasteners must not
touch any parts or wiring. Perform leakage tests on customized installations.
5. Caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a tilted position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. A product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
Caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small casters
across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. Caution customers against using extension cords. Explain that a forest of extensions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous consequences to
home and family.
CAUTION: Before servicing the DVB-T/HDD/DVD RECORDER
covered by this service data and its supplements and
addends, read and follow the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
NOTE: if unforeseen circumstances create conflict between
the following servicing precautions and any of the safety precautions in this publication, always follow the safety precautions.
Remember Safety First:
General Servicing Precautions
1. Always unplug the DVB-T/HDD/DVD RECORDER AC
power cord from the AC power source before:
(1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,
module, or any other assembly.
(2) Disconnecting or reconnecting any internal electrical
plug or other electrical connection.
(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an electrolyt-
ic capacitor.
Caution: A wrong part substitution or incorrect polarity
installation of electrolytic capacitors may result in an
explosion hazard.
2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this DVB-T/HDD/DVD
RECORDER or any of its assemblies.
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 field effect
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 unsolder
ES devices.
3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact cleaning
solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner, cotton-tipped
swab, or comparable soft applicator.
Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication of
contacts is not required.
4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with
which instruments covered by this service manual might be
equipped.
5. Do not apply AC power to this DVB-T/HDD/DVD RECORDER
and/or any of its electrical assemblies unless all solid state
device heat sinks are correctly installed.
6. Always connect the test instrument ground lead to an appropriate ground before connecting the test instrument positive
lead. Always remove the test instrument ground lead last.
Insulation Checking Procedure
Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn
the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter (500V)
to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resistance
between each blade of the attachment plug and accessible
conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1Mohm.
Note 1: Accessible Conductive Parts include Metal panels,
Input terminals, Earphone jacks,etc.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder
removal devices not classified as “anti-static” can generate
electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate
an electrical charge 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. (Normally harmless motion such
as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting
of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)
