Follow these safety and servicing precautions to prevent damage and to protect against potential hazards
such as electrical shock and X-rays.
1-1 Safety Precautions
1-1-1 Warnings
1. For safety purpose, do not attempt to modify
the circuit board, and always disconnect the AC
power before performing servicing on the
monitor.
2. Operation of the monitor outside its cabinet or
with the cover removed involves the risk of
shock hazard. Repair work on the monitor
should only be attempted by service personnel
who are thoroughly familiar with all necessary
safety precautions and procedures for working
on high voltage equipment.
3. Do not lift the CRT by the neck. After
completely discharging the high voltage anode,
handle the CRT only when wearing shatterproof
goggles. Try to keep the CRT away from the
body during handling.
4. High voltage should always be kept at the rated
value, no higher. Only when high voltage is
excessive are X-rays capable of penetrating the
shell of the CRT. Operation at high voltages
may also cause failure of the CRT or high
voltage circuitry.
nonmetallic control knobs, insulating materials,
cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment
covers or shields, isolation resistor-capacitor
networks, mechanical insulators, etc.
3. AC Leakage Current Check
Always perform the AC Leakage Current
Check on the exposed metal parts, including
metal cabinets, screwheads and control shafts,
as follows:
a) Plug the AC line cord directly into a rated
AC outlet. Do not use an isolation
transformer during the check.
b) Use an AC voltmeter with at least 5000
ohms per volt sensitivity as follows:
Connect a 1500 ohms, 10 watt resistor
paralleled by a 0.15uF AC capacitor in series
with all exposed metal cabinet parts and a
known earth ground, such as electrical
conduct or electrical ground connected to
earth ground, as shown in the Figure 1-1.
Measure the AC voltage across the
combination of resistor and capacitor.
Figure 1-1. Set Up For AC Leakage Current Check
5. The CRT is especially constructed to limit Xray emission to 0.5mR/HR at 300 microamperes
anode current. To ensure continued X-ray
protection, replace the CRT with only the same
or equivalent type as the original, and adjust the
anode’s voltage to the designated maximum
rating, never to exceed.
1-1-2 Safety Checks
Before returning the monitor to the user, perform
the following safety checks:
1. Inspect to make certain that each lead dress is
not pinched or that hardware is not lodged
between the chassis and other metal parts in
the monitor.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as

c) Reverse the AC plug at the AC outlet and
repeat the steps for AC voltage
measurements for each exposed metal part.
d) Voltage reading must not exceed 0.3 volts
RMS, equivalent to 0.2 milliampere AC. Any
value exceeding this limit ill constitute a
potential shock hazard and must be
corrected immediately.

1-1-3 Product Safety Notices
Many electrical and mechanical parts in this chassis have special safety-related characteristics which are
often not evident from visual inspection, the protection afforded by them may not be obtained by replacing
them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Before replacing any of these components,
consult the Recommended Spare Parts List given at the end of this manual. Any of the replacements that do
not provide the same safety characteristics may result in shock, fire, X-ray emission or other hazards.
1-2 Servicing Precautions
Warning: An electrolytic capacitor installed with the wrong polarity might explode.
Caution: Before performing servicing covered by this service manual, read and follow the Safety Precautions
section of this manual.
Note:If unforeseen conflict between the following servicing precautions and any of the safety
precautions, always follow the safety precautions
1. Follow closely the servicing precautions printed on the monitor cabinet and chassis.
2. Always unplug the AC power cord from the AC power source before removing or installing any component
or assembly, disconnecting PCB plugs or connectors and connecting a test component in parallel with a
capacitor.
3. When replacing parts or circuit boards, clamp the lead wires around the component before soldering.
4. When replacing a high wattage resistor (>0.5W metal oxide film resistor) in the circuit board, keep the
resistor about 1 cm (1/2 inch) away from the circuit board.
5. Keep wires away from the high voltage or high temperature components.
6. Keep wires in their original positions so as to minimize interference.
7. Always connect a test instrument’s ground lead to the instrument chassis ground before connecting the
positive lead; always remove the instrument’s ground lead last.

ecology (with demands for environmental adaptation for both the product and the production processes at
the manufacturing plant).
2) Environmental Requirements
The monitor abides by the environmental demands concerning restrictions on the presence and use of
heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons), and chlorinated solvents,
among other things. The monitor is also recyclable.
3) Energy Requirements
The monitor also follows the energy requirements that, after a certain period of inactivity, the monitor
shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages.
4) Others
The monitor meets the strict environmental demands for the reduction of electric and magnetic fields,
physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.

3-2 Microcontrol Section
1. This monitor uses NOVATEK NT68P61 CPU. It contains a 6502 8-bit CPU core, 256 bytes of RAM
used as working RAM and stack area, 24k bytes of OTP ROM, 14-channel 8 bit PWM D/A converter,
2-channel A/D converters for key detection saving I/O pins, internal H. sync and V. sync signals processor
providing mode detection, and an I2C bus interface. When H/V sync through D-Sub signal cable enter pin
39 and pin 40, the CPU performs frequency / polarity detection and calculate and send to H/V sync OUT.
Then CPU reads the data from I703 and transfer to device 4854 and some DAC in CPU, above operation
takes about 500 ms.
2. There allowed 14 factory preset modes and 8 user modes. There are 8 functions, Contrast, Brightness, H.
Size, H. Position, V. Size, V. Position, Pincushion, and Trapezoid, all controlled by OSD icon which can
be adjusted by user.
3. The pin 24 and pin 25 are used for A TE function. When CPU receives C6 as slave address, it will operate
in ATE mode which is used for auto-alignment. After alignment the data will be stored in I703.
4. The user control parameters are selected by OSD icons, through
2 keys, they are detected by

A1570NSL/NST
3-3-1 Horizontal Section
1. The oscillator is driven by the currents in R419 and R420. The minimum oscillator frequency is determined
by R419 and the maximum frequency is determined by R420.
2. Horizontal sync comes into pin 15 through R318. And horizontal flyback pulse comes into pin 1 through
R401 and by pass filter C403 from pin 9 of FBT and C453, R4C2, Q414, R4C3 for HFLB loop.
3. Horizontal driver (pin8) O/P to Q401 via C410.
3-3-2 Vertical Section
1. V ertical sync comes into pin 14 through R317.
2. The free running frequency is determined by R301 and C301.
3-3-3 Vertical O/P section
1. The differential output currents from pin 13 of Vout1 and pin 12 of Vout2 can be directly coupled to the
vertical deflection booster pin 1 and pin 2 of TDA4866.
2. The TDA4866 has two output stages which are current driven in opposite phase and operate in combination
with the deflection coil in a full bridge configuration.
3. This IC is powered by two sets of positive voltage. (+12V at pin 3, +42V at pin 7).
3-3-4 E-W/T rapezoid and H. Width Contr ols
1. The horizontal O/P stage uses diode modulator D419, D433, C411, C412, L409 and C418 for East-West
(Pincushion) Trapezoid and H. width controls.

minus Vm ( the voltage of C418) values and the pincushion control is
3-3-5 X-Ray Protection
1. To avoid X-ray hazard, a DC voltage generated by pin 6 of FBT and rectified by D408, C432 and divided
by R403, R404 and R405 come into pin 2 of TDA4854.
2. If this voltage is higher than 6.39 V , then TDA4854 will be activated to float HUNLOCK (pin17), H. DRV
( pin 8), B DR V (pin 6), VOUT1 (pin 12), VOUT2 (pin13). After that all deflection circuit stop working.
3-3-6 G1, Blanking and Brightness
1. The vertical blanking signal comes from two ways. One is from pin 8 of I301 (TDA4866), the other is
from vertical sync (pin 32 of I701). These two positive vertical pulses through Q405 amplified and converted
into negative pulse and sent to G1 for vertical blanking.
2. In protection mode or an out-of- range situation HUNLock will send 5 V pulse to saturate Q406 and to
cutoff Q407, then G1 will go down to -140V. During the mode change, Mute acts as same as HUNLock’ s.
3. The brightness is controlled by CPU pin 1 through PNP transistor Q407. The lower control voltage causes
Q407 conducts darken to get lighter raster and a higher control voltage causes Q407 conducts lighter to get
lower brightness.
3-3-7 Contrast Section
1. Contrast is controlled by I701 through I2C bus to I501 (TDA4886) directly.
Operation TheoryPage 11
A1570NSL/NST
2. Beam current is detected through T402 (FBT) pin 7, C429, VR401, R460, D406 and detected voltage
feeding into R455, R447, Q410, R527, R528, R524, C571 to control I501 pin 24 voltage. When I501 pin
24 voltage drops below 5V, the ABL function will happen.
3-3-8 H/V size breathing compensation
1. Beam current is sensed as above section (4-3-7 item 2) and this voltage routes through R456, C449,
Q409, R467, R457, R4A3, C436 then through R418 to I401 pin 31 for H. size compensation, through
R302 to I401 pin 21 for V size compensation.
3-3-9 Dynamic focus circuity
The dynamic focus is applied to improve the corner focus performance, it includes horizontal and vertical
dynamic focus.
1. Horizontal and vertical dynamic comes from I401 pin 32 and amplified through Q4F1, Q4F2, Q4F3,
C4F4, T4F1, R4F8 and feed to FBT dynamic focus pins.
2. This amplifier need 58V voltage supply, it comes from T802 pin 1 1 and rectified through L810, D813 and
C824.
3-4 Power Supply Section
3-4-1AC Rectifier
The circuit can accept 90 V to 264 V AC input through D801~D804 bridge diodes and C808 filtering to get
DC 126 V~364 V for power conversion in T802.
3-4-2Line Filter
It consists of C801, C802, C803, C816, C839, C840, C852, C853, C807 and T801 and meets EMI
regulation.
3-4-3Power LED Status
1. The LED has 3 leads with common cathode to emit green and amber color light for different power
saving indications. It is controlled by CPU.
2. Normal : Green light
Amber LED is off because CPU pin 35 is high and pin 34 is low, only green LED is turned on.
3. Standby / Suspend : Y ellow light
CPU pin 34 and pin 35 are low, then green and amber LED are turned on. That is yellow.
4. Off Mode : Amber light
CPU pin 34 is high and pin 35 is low, then green is off and amber is illuminated.
3-4-4 Auto Degaussing
When S701 turns on, pin 19 of I701 will send a signal to Q802 and turns on RL801 for degaussing. After 4
seconds, it will turn off RL801 automatically.

A1570NSL/NST
3-4-5 PWM Control
1. Start Up
The I801 (MC3842) gets power from R807, C812 and pin 7 voltage reaches 16 V for starting up. The
I801 starts oscillation at 22 kHz, sawtooth on pin 4 and pin 6 output to drive Q803/T802. Once Q803
switching on, D806, C804 set up an 15 V to keep I801 working through D808 auxiliary voltage.
2. Regulation
The DC O/P voltage is proportional to the auxiliary voltage, so I801 pin 2 senses the feedback voltage from
the divider R802, R823, VR801 and R821 to compare with the built-in 2.5 volts reference voltage for error
amplifier operation. Finally pin 6 can modulate the different duty cycle by VR801 setting to achieve
regulation purpose.
3-4-6 Sy nc hr onization
1. Normal Mode
The sync pulse from FBT (31 kHz~69 kHz) via C815, R826, D824, C814 and R816 to pin 4 of I801 to
keep I801 synchronized with horizontal sync input frequency.
2. Power Saving Modes: Standby/Suspend
Because there is no pulse from FBT, so the free-run frequency is decided by R815 and C814 and the
SMPS works at 22 kHz.
3. Override
The horizontal free run frequency is about 62.5 kHz under override condition, SMPS is synchronized to
this frequency.
3-4-7 O.V.P.
If the auxiliary voltage is higher than zener voltage ZD807 (18 volts) and makes pin 3 of I801 higher than
1 V, pin 6 duty cycle is limited to have the OVP activated.
3-4-8 O.P.P.
The excess current of T802 through Q803, R813 and R814 can develop enough voltage on pin 3 then limit the
power delivered because the pin 6 duty cycle is limited too.
3-4-9 Step Up Power Supply For FBT
1. The B+ of FBT is proportional to horizontal frequency, that is the higher frequency, the higher voltage.
The basic voltage is 58 volts from T802 pin 11 via L810, D813, C824 and the gate control of Q807 comes
from I401 pin 6 via Q808, Q809, D826 and R849. The duty cycle is controlled by C843, C844, C846,
R848 and R856, R857, R858, R873 and VR802 combination ratio.
2. The regulation and boost up (from 68 V to 160 V or more, on demand). The H.V. is set at 24.5 kV (zero
beam) by VR802 which senses the secondary O/P from FBT. The booster comprises Q807, L802, L801,
D820, C425 and T802 to offer the required B+ for different frequency modes.
3-5 Video Amplifier Section
1. RGB signal inputs are terminated by R501, R531 and R561 then pass through the coupling capacitors
C503, C533 and C563 to the IC501 TDA 4886 preamplifier.
Operation TheoryPage 13
A1570NSL/NST
2. The amplifier RGB signals (0~3 Vpp) are adjusted by I2C bus from I501, pin 5 is for clamp pulse which
comes from pin 16 of TDA4854 to set up the equal clamp level.
3. The video output stages are amplified by I901 (LM2407).
4. The RGB cathodes cut off are adjusted by VR910, VR940 and VR970.
5. Under override condition, “NO SIGNAL” will show on the screen.
3-6 OSD (On Screen Display) Circuit
1. The I502 HTV018-08 is OSD IC. The OSD signals are worked by positive vertical pulse from I701 pin 32
that goes through R517 to I502 pin 10, and positive horizontal pulse from T402 pin 9 goes through C453,
R4C2, Q414, R4C3 to I502 pin 5. CPU I701 pin 26, 27 (I2C bus) transfers information to I502 pin 7, 8.
2. The OSD R. G. B signals and blanking signal are terminated at I502 pin 15,d 14, 13, and 12 to I501 pin 2,
3,4, and 1, then the OSD picture appears.

4-2-6 Degaussing
Degaussing is required when poor color impurity appears on the screen. This monitor uses an automatic
degaussing circuit that is activated when the power is on. The automatic degaussing will be fully functional
again after the monitor has been in operation for 20 minutes.
The degaussing effect is confined to the picture tube since the coils are mounted at the back of the tube.
Should any part of the chassis or cabinet becomes magnetized, it is necessary to degauss the affected area
with a manual degaussing coil.
4-2-7 Manual Degaussing
1. Apply line voltage to the degaussing coil and move it in a rotary motion over the front, sides, and top of the
monitor. The coil should be kept away from the rear of the monitor to avoid damaging the magnetic neck
components.
2. Slowly rotate and move the coil away from the monitor to about 6 feet beyond the point where no effect
on the CR T will be noticeable.
For proper degaussing, it is essential that the field be gradually reduced by moving the coil slowly away from
the monitor. The degaussing coil must never be shut off or disconnected while near the monitor, as this would
introduce a strong field instead of canceling the effect of the stray fields.
