1 Safety Precautions

1.1. General Guide

1. It is advisable to insert an isolation transformer in the AC supply before servicing a hot chassis. Fig. 1.

Fig. 1

2. When servicing, observe the original lead dress, especia lly the lead dress in the high voltage circuits. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit.

3. After servicing, observe that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers, insulation papers, shields, and isolation R-C combinations, are properly installed.

4. When the receiver is not to be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.

5. Potential, as high as is in operation. Operation of the receiver without the receiver power supply. Servicing should not be attempted by anyone who is not thoroughly familiar with the precautions necessary when working on high voltage equipment. Always discharge the anode of the picture tube to the receiver chassis before handling the tube.

After servicing make the following leakage current checks to prevent the customer from being exposed to shock hazards.

1.3. Leakage Current Hot Check (See Fig. 1)

1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an

isolation transformer for this check.

2. Connect a 2 kΩ, 10 W resistor in series with an exposed

metallic part on the receiver and an earth such as a water pipe.

3. Use an AC voltmeter, with high impedance type, to

measure the potential across the resistor.

4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the

voltage at each point. Fig. 3.

Fig. 3

5. Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the

above measurements.

6. The potential any point should not exceed

case of a measurement being outside of the limits specified, there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and the receiver should be repaired and re-checked before it is returned to the customer. Fig. 4.

1.2. Leakage Current Cold Check

1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two prongs on the plug. Fig. 2.

Fig. 2

2. Turn on the receiver’s power switch.

3. Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the receiver, such as screw heads, aerials, connectors, control shafts, etc. When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis, the reading should be

1.4. X-Radiation

Warning :

1. The potential sources of X-Radiation in TV sets are the EHT section and the picture tube.

2. When using a picture tube test rig for service, ensure that the rig is capable of handling Radiation.

Note:

It is important to use an accurate periodically calibrated

high voltage meter.

1. Set the brightness to minimum.

2. Measure the High Voltage. The meter reading should indicate tolerance, immediate service and correction is required to prevent the possibility of premature component failure.

3. To prevent the possibility of X-Radiation, it is essential to use the specified picture tube.

3. Connect an oscilloscope to KG on L BOARD.

4. Set the TV set to Market Mode : white balance adjustment (CHK 4).

5. Screen VR : Min.

6. Set the data level of RGB CUT OFF / DRIVE and SUB BRIGHT.

Adjustment

1. Select G-CUTOFF adjustment mode and collapse vertical scan.

2. Adjust G-CUTOFF control to become the DC=0 V to video level at 150 V as shown in Fig. 1.

8. Wedge A shown in Fig. 2 should be fixed within a range of 45° to the left of the vertical line as shown.

9. After inserting wedge A, insert wedges B, C and D. The wedges should be set 90° apart from each other.

10. Be certain that the four wedges are firmly fixed and the Deflection Yoke is tightly clamped in place otherwise the Deflection Yoke may shift its position and cause a loss of convergence and purity.

Fig. 1

3. Slowly turn the screen control clockwise until a green colour horizontal line appears on the picture tube. This is the setting point for the screen control. Note:

Do not adjust the G-CUTOFF setting in the following procedure.

4. Adjust the remaining R and B-CUTOFF controls so as to get a white horizontal line on the screen.

5. Return to full field SCAN by pushing the position 5 key on the remote control.

6. Adjust the R-Drive and B-Drive controls as to obtain a uniform white on the white bar of the greyscale pattern.

7. Confirm correct B/W rendition and greyscale tracking or repeat CUTOFF and drive control setup.

Note:

Write down the original value for each address adjustment before adjusting anything.
