Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.1Safety Instructions
Safety regulations require that during a repair:
•Due to the chassis concept, a very large part of the chassis
(including horizontal and vertical deflection) is 'hot.'
Connect the set to AC power via an isolation transformer.
•Safety components, indicated by the symbol
replaced with original Philips components.
•Wear safety goggles when you replace the CRT.
Safety regulations require that after a repair, you must return
the set in its original condition. Pay particular attention to the
following points:
•General repair instruction: as a strict precaution, we advise
you to resolder the solder connections through which the
horizontal deflection current is flowing, in particular:
1. All pins of the line output transformer (LOT.)
2. Flyback capacitor(s.)
3. S-correction capacitor(s.)
4. Line output transistor.
5. Pins of the connector with wires to the deflection coil.
6. Other components through which the deflection current
flows.
Note: This resoldering is advised to prevent bad connections
due to metal fatigue in solder connections and is therefore only
necessary for television sets more than two years old.
•Route the wire trees and EHT cable correctly and secure
them with the mounted cable clamps.
•Check the insulation of the AC power cord for external
damage.
•Check the strain relief of the AC power cord for proper
function, to prevent the cord from touching the CRT, hot
components, or heat sinks.
•Check the electrical DC resistance between the AC plug
and the secondary side (only for sets that have an isolated
power supply.) To do this:
1. Unplug the AC power cord and connect a wire between
the two pins of the AC plug.
2. Set the AC power switch to the “on” position (keep the
AC power cord unplugged.)
3. Measure the resistance value between the pins of the
AC plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or the
aerial connection of the set. The reading should be
between 4.5 Mohm and 12 Mohm.
•Check the cabinet for defects, to prevent the customer from
touching any inner parts of the television set.
2.2Maintenance Instructions
It is recommended to have a maintenance inspection carried
out by qualified service personnel. The interval depends on the
usage conditions:
•When the set is used under normal circumstances, for
example in a living room, the recommended interval is
three to five years.
•When the set is used in an environment with higher dust,
grease or moisture levels, for example in a kitchen, the
recommended interval is one year.
•The maintenance inspection includes the following actions:
1. Perform the “general repair instruction” noted above.
2. Clean the power supply and deflection circuitry on the
chassis.
3. Clean the picture tube panel and the neck of the picture
tube.
2.3Warnings
•In order to prevent damage to ICs and transistors, avoid all
high voltage flashovers. In order to prevent damage to the
, must be
picture tube, use the method shown in Fig. 2-1 to discharge
the picture tube. Use a high voltage probe and a multimeter
(position Vdc.) Discharge until the meter reading is 0 V
(after approx. 30s.)
V
CL96532156_040.eps
Figure 2-1 Discharge picture tube
•All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to
electrostatic discharges (ESD.) Careless handling during
repair can reduce life drastically. When repairing, make
sure that you are connected with the same potential as the
mass of the set by a wristband with resistance. Also keep
components and tools at this potential.
connection box, extension cable, and ground cable)
4822 310 10671.
–Wristband tester 4822 344 13999.
•Together with the deflection unit and any multi-pole unit,
flat square picture tubes form an integrated unit. The
deflection and the multi-pole units are set optimally at the
factory. Adjustment of this unit during repair is therefore not
recommended.
•Be careful during measurements in the high voltage
section and on the picture tube.
•Never replace modules or other components while the unit
is switched “on.”
•When you align the set, use plastic rather than metal tools.
This will prevent any short circuits and the danger of a
circuit becoming unstable.
2.4Notes
2.4.1General
•Measure the voltages and waveforms with regard to the
chassis (= tuner) ground (), or hot ground (), depending
on the area of circuitry being tested.
•The voltages and waveforms shown in the diagrams are
indicative. Measure them in the Service Default Mode with
a color bar signal and stereo sound (L: 3 kHz, R: 1 kHz;
unless stated otherwise).
•Where necessary, measure the waveforms and voltages
with () and without () aerial signal. Measure the
voltages in the power supply section both in normal
operation () and in standby (.) These values are
indicated by means of the appropriate symbols.
•The picture tube panel has printed spark gaps. Each spark
gap is connected between an electrode of the picture tube
and the Aquadag coating.
•The semiconductors indicated in the circuit diagram and in
the parts lists are interchangeable per position with the
semiconductors in the unit, irrespective of the type
indication on these semiconductors.

2.4.2Practical Service Precautions
•It makes sense to avoid exposure to electrical shock.
While some sources are expected to have a possible
dangerous impact, others of quite high potential are of
limited current and are sometimes held in less regard.
•Always respect voltages. While some may not be
dangerous in themselves, they can cause unexpected
reactions - reactions that are best avoided. Before reaching
into a powered TV set, it is best to test the high voltage
insulation. It is easy to do, and is a good service precaution.
•Before powering up the TV set with the back cover off
(or on a test fixture), attach a clip lead to the CRT DAG
ground and to a screwdriver blade that has a well insulated
handle. After the TV is powered on and high voltage has
developed, probe the anode lead with the blade, starting at
the case of the High Voltage Transformer (flyback - IFT.)
Move the blade to within two inches of the connector of the
CRT. If there is an arc, you found it the easy way, without getting a shock! If there is an arc to the
screwdriver blade, replace the part which is causing the
problem; the High Voltage Transformer or the lead (if it is
removable.

5.1Test Points
The chassis is equipped with test points printed on the circuit
board assemblies. They refer to the diagram letters. The
numbering is in a logical sequence for diagnostics. Always start
diagnosing (within a functional block), in the sequence of the
relevant test points for that block.
Perform measurements under the following conditions:
•Service Default Mode.
•Video: colour bar signal.
•Audio: 3 kHz left, 1 kHz right.
5.2Service Modes
Service Default Mode (SDM) and Service Alignment Mode
(SAM) offer several features for the service technician, while
the Customer Service Mode (CSM) is used for communication
between a Philips Customer Care Centre (P3C) and a
customer.
There is also the option of using ComPair, a hardware interface
between a computer (see requirements below) and the TV
chassis. It offers the ability of structured troubleshooting, test
pattern generation, error code reading, software version
readout, and on some chassis software upgrading.
Minimum requirements: a Pentium processor, Windows 9x/
NT/2000/XP/ME, and a CD-ROM drive (see also paragraph
“ComPair”).

•‘Service Options’ Extra features for Service.
•‘Initialise NVM’ When an NVM was corrupted (or
replaced) in the former EM3 chassis, the microprocessor
replaces the content with default data (to assure that the
set can operate). However, all pre-sets and alignment
values are gone now, and option numbers are also not
correct. So, this was a very drastic way. In the EM5
chassis, the procedure is implemented in another way: The
moment the processor recognises a corrupted NVM, an
extra line will be added to the SAM menu: 'Initialise NVM'.
Now, you can do two things (dependent of the service
instructions at that moment):
–Save the content of the NVM via ComPair for
development analysis, before initialising. This will give
the Philips Service department an extra possibility for
diagnosis (e.g. when Development asks for this).
–Initialise the NVM (same as in the past, however now it
happens conscious).
•‘Store Options’ All options are stored when pressing the
'OK'-button
•‘Functional Test’ All devices are tested via the 'OK'
button. Eventual errors are displayed in the error buffer.
The error buffer is not erased, the content returns when this
test is terminated.
How to navigate
•In SAM, you can select the menu items with the CURSOR
UP/DOWN key on the RC-transmitter. The selected item
will be highlighted. When not all menu items fit on the
screen, move the CURSOR UP/DOWN key to display the
next/previous menu items.
•With the CURSOR LEFT/RIGHT keys, it is possible to:
–(De) activate the selected menu item.
–Change the value of the selected menu item.
–Activate the selected submenu.
How to exit SAM
Use one of the following methods:
•Press the 'MENU' button on the RC-transmitter, or
•Switch the set to STANDBY with the RC-transmitter, or
•Press the 'EXIT' button on the DST.
5.2.3Customer Service Mode (CSM)
Purpose
When a customer is having problems with his TV-set, he can
call his dealer. The service technician can then ask the
customer to activate the CSM, in order to identify the status of
the set. Now, the service technician can judge the severity of
the complaint. In many cases, he can advise the customer how
to solve the problem, or he can decide if it is necessary to visit
the customer.
The CSM is a read only mode; therefore, modifications in this
mode are not possible.
How to enter CSM
Use one of the following methods:
•Press the 'MUTE' button on the RC-transmitter
simultaneously with the 'MENU' button on the TV (top
control) for (at least) 4 seconds.
•Key in the code '123654' via the standard RC transmitter.
Note: Activation of the CSM is only possible if there is no (user)
menu on the screen!
How to navigate
By means of the 'CURSOR-DOWN/UP' knob on the RCtransmitter you can navigate through the five menus.
Contents of CSM
Customer Service Menu 1
•‘Software version’ (example: EM5EU1-1.0_01234).
Displays the build in software version. In case of field
problems related to software, software flash-RAM

5.4ComPair
5.4.1Introduction
ComPair (Computer Aided Repair) is a service tool for Philips
Consumer Electronics products. ComPair is a further
development on the European DST (service remote control),
which allows faster and more accurate diagnostics. ComPair
has three big advantages:
•ComPair helps you to quickly get an understanding on how
to repair the chassis in a short time by guiding you
systematically through the repair procedures.
•ComPair allows very detailed diagnostics (on I
is therefore capable of accurately indicating problem areas.
You do not have to know anything about I
yourself because ComPair takes care of this.
•ComPair speeds up the repair time since it can
automatically communicate with the chassis (when the
microprocessor is working) and all repair information is
directly available. When ComPair is installed together with
the SearchMan electronic manual of the defective chassis,
schematics and PWBs are only a mouse click away.

Decrease the contrast value.
ComPair consists of a Windows based faultfinding program
and an interface box between PC and the (defective) product.
The ComPair interface box is connected to the PC via a serial
or RS232 cable.
In case of the EM5 chassis, the ComPair interface box and the
TV communicate via a bi-directional service cable via the
service connector.
The ComPair faultfinding program is able to determine the
problem of the defective television. ComPair can gather
diagnostic information in two ways:
•Automatic (by communication with the television):
ComPair can automatically read out the contents of the
entire error buffer. Diagnosis is done on I
can access the I
and receive I
2
C bus of the television. ComPair can send
2
C commands to the micro controller of the
television. In this way, it is possible for ComPair to
communicate (read and write) to devices on the I
2
C level. ComPair
2
C busses
of the TV-set.
•Manually (by asking questions to you): Automatic
diagnosis is only possible if the micro controller of the
television is working correctly and only to a certain extends.
When this is not the case, ComPair will guide you through
the faultfinding tree by asking you questions (e.g. Does the
screen give a picture? Click on the correct answer: YES /
NO) and showing you examples (e.g. Measure test-point I7
and click on the correct oscillogram you see on the
oscilloscope). You can answer by clicking on a link (e.g.
text or a waveform picture) that will bring you to the next
step in the faultfinding process.
By a combination of automatic diagnostics and an interactive
question / answer procedure, ComPair will enable you to find
most problems in a fast and effective way.
Beside fault finding, ComPair provides some additional features like:
Service Modes, Error Codes and Fault Finding
EN 25EM5A P/M5.
•Up- or downloading of pre-sets.
•Managing of pre-set lists.
•Emulation of the Dealer Service Tool (DST).
•If both ComPair and SearchMan (Electronic Service
Manual) are installed, all the schematics and the PWBs of
the set are available by clicking on the appropriate
hyperlink. Example: Measure the DC-voltage on capacitor C2568 (Schematic/Panel) at the Mono-carrier.
–Click on the “Panel” hyperlink to automatically show
the PWB with a highlighted capacitor C2568.
–Click on the “Schematic” hyperlink to automatically
show the position of the highlighted capacitor.
5.4.3Stepwise Start-up / Shut-down
Under normal circumstances, a fault in the power supply, or an
error during start-up, will switch the television to protection
mode. ComPair can take over the initialisation of the television.
In this way it is possible to distinguish which part of the start-up
routine (hence which circuitry) is causing the problem.
Stepwise start- up explanation
This is realised via ComPair and is very helpful when a
protection is activated (see also paragraph “Protections”).

Note (*): When the set is in stepwise mode and, due to
stepping-up, a protection is activated, the set will really go into
protection (blinking LED). The set will not leave the stepwisemode however. By stepping up, the set can be activated again,
until state X where the protection was activated. At state (X-1)
diagnostic measurements can be performed.
5.4.4How To Connect
1. First, install the ComPair Browser software (see the Quick
Reference Card for installation instructions).
2. Connect the RS232 interface cable between a free serial
(COM) port of your PC and the PC connector (marked with
'PC') of the ComPair interface.
3. Connect the mains adapter to the supply connector
(marked with 'POWER 9V DC') of the ComPair interface.
4. Switch the ComPair interface 'OFF'.
5. Switch the television set 'OFF' with the mains switch.
6. Connect the ComPair interface cable between the
connector on the rear side of the ComPair interface
(marked with 'I
2
C') and the ComPair connector at the rear
side of the TV (situated just below the tuner input)
7. Plug the mains adapter in a mains outlet, and switch the
interface 'ON'. The green and red LEDs light up together.
The red LED extinguishes after approx. 1 second while the
green LED remains lit.
8. Start the ComPair program and read the “Introduction”
chapter.
The error code buffer contains all detected errors since the last
time the buffer was erased. The buffer is written from left to
right, new errors are logged at the left side, and all other errors
shift one position to the right.
When an error has occurred, the error is added to the list of
errors, provided the list is not full or the error is a protection
error.
When an error occurs and the error buffer is full, then the new
error is not added, and the error buffer stays intact (history is
maintained), except when the error is a protection error.
To prevent that an occasional error stays in the list forever, the
error is removed from the list after 50+ operation hours.
When multiple errors occur (errors occurred within a short time
span), there is a high probability that there is some relation
between them.
5.5.2How to read the Error Buffer
Use one of the following methods:
•On screen via the SAM (only if you have a picture).
Examples:
–0 0 0 0 0: No errors detected
–6 0 0 0 0: Error code 6 is the last and only detected
error
–9 6 0 0 0: Error code 6 was first detected and error code
9 is the last detected error
•Via the blinking LED procedure (when you have no
picture). See next paragraph.
•Via ComPair.
5.5.3How to clear the Error Buffer
Use one of the following methods:
•By activation of the 'RESET ERROR BUFFER' command
in the SAM menu.
•With a normal RC, key in sequence 'MUTE', followed by
'062599' and 'OK'.
•When you transmit the commands 'DIAGNOSE' - '99' - 'OK'
with ComPair (or with a DST).
•If the content of the error buffer has not changed for 50+
hours, it resets automatically.
5.5.4Error Codes
In case of non-intermittent faults, clear the error buffer before
you begin the repair. This to ensure that old error codes are no
longer present. Before clearing the buffer, write down the
content, as this history can give you significant information.
If possible, check the entire contents of the error buffer. In
some situations, an error code is only the result of another error
code and not the actual cause (e.g., a fault in the protection
detection circuitry can also lead to a protection).
There are various errors:
2
•I
C device errors.
2
•I
C bus errors.
•Protection errors.
•Errors not related to I
2
C device, but of importance:
–Black Current Loop Error (error 28): detection of a
continuous fail of the black current stabilisation loop of
the HOP.
–FALCONIC Error (error 26): at start-up, after
initialisation of the PICNIC, the presence of the
FALCONIC can be checked.
–Eagle Error (error 27): at start-up, after initialisation of
the PICNIC, the presence of the Eagle can be
checked.

Note: Error codes 1, 6 or 18 are protection codes and in this
case, supplies of some circuits will be switched off. Also, in
protection, the LED will blink the number of times equivalent to
the most recent error code.

EN 27EM5A P/M5.
5.6Blinking LED Procedure
5.6.1Introduction
Via this procedure, you can make the contents of the error
buffer visible via the front LED. This is especially useful for fault
finding, when there is no picture.
When the SDM is entered, the front LED will show (blink) the
contents of the error-buffer. Error-codes = 10 are shown as
follows:
– A long blink of 750 ms (which is an indication of the decimal
digit),
– A pause of 1.5 s,
– 'n' short blinks (where 'n' = 1 - 9),
– When all the error-codes are displayed, the sequence
finishes with a LED blink of 3 s,
– The sequence starts again.
Example: Error 12 9 6 0 0.
After activation of the SDM, the red front LED will show:
– 1 long blink of 750 ms (which is an indication of the decimal
digit) followed by a pause of 1.5 s,
– 2 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
– 9 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
– 6 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
– 1 long blink of 3 s to finish the sequence,
– The sequence starts again.
Note: If errors 1, 6 or 18 occur, the LED always gives the last
occurred error even if the set is NOT in service mode.
5.6.2How to Enter
•The Service Default Mode (SDM). Start-up of the set in a
predefined way.
•The Service Alignment Mode (SAM). In this mode, items
of the set can be adjusted via a menu and with the help of
test patterns.
You can enter both SDM and SAM modes via the “service
pads” on the SSB, via an RC-transmitter (DST or standard RC),
or via ComPair. It is not possible to enter the SAM in “standby”;
the TV has to be in “normal operation” mode.
The EM5 “Protection Diagram” shows the structure of the
protection system. See diagram below.

Use one of the following methods:
•Enter the SDM (only via soldering pads marked 'SDM' on
SSB). The blinking red front LED will show the entire
contents of the error buffer (this works in “normal
operation” mode and in “protection” mode).
•Transmit the commands 'MUTE' - '062500' - 'OK' with a
normal RC. The complete error buffer is shown. This works
only in “protection” mode.
•Transmit the commands 'MUTE' - '06250x' - 'OK' with a
normal RC (where 'x' is a number between 1 and 5). When
x= 1 the last detected error is shown, x= 2 the second last
error, etc.... This works only in “protection” mode.
5.7Protections
5.7.1Introduction
The EM5 has only one microprocessor (OTC), which remains
active during Standby. This because power of the
microprocessor and the attached memory chip set is coming
from the 3V3 supply, which is derived from the 5V Standbycircuitry. So, in both Power-on as in Standby mode, the
microprocessor is connected to this power supply.
If a fault situation is detected, an error code will be generated
and if necessary, the set is put in protection mode. The
protection mode is indicated by the blinking of the red front LED
at a frequency of 3 Hz (or by a coded blinking in special cases).
In some error cases however, the microprocessor does not put
the set in the protection mode (this is the case with the hardware - loudspeaker protection of the audio amplifier).
The content of the error buffer can be read via the service menu
(SAM), the blinking LED procedure or via DST/ComPair. The
DST/ComPair 'Diagnose' functionality will force the set into the
“Service Standby”, which is alike the usual Standby, however
the microprocessor remains completely in normal operation.
To get a quick diagnosis, the EM5 has three service-modes
implemented:
•The Customer Service Mode (CSM).

There are several types of protections:
2
•I
C related protections.
•OTC related protections (via polling on I/O pins or via
algorithms).
•HOP related protections (mainly for deflection items).
•Hardware errors that are not sensed by the OTC (e.g.
vertical flyback protection, bridge coil protection, E/W
protection, arcing protection).
All protections are explained below.

occur, if the power supply of the IC is missing (e.g. FBX_PROT
(error 16)).
5.7.3OTC Related Protections
If a protection is detected at an OTC input, the OTC will start to
scan all protection inputs every 200 ms for 5 times. If the
protection on one of the inputs is still active after 1 s, the µP will
put the set in the protection mode.
Before the scanning is started, a so-called “ESD refresh” is
carried out. This is done, because the interrupt on one of the
inputs is possibly caused either by a flash or by ESD. As a flash
or ESD can influence IC settings, the HOP, HIP, MSP, PICNIC,

Service Modes, Error Codes and Fault Finding
NVM, and Tuner are initialised again, to ensure the normal
picture and sound conditions of the set.
8 V and 5 V protection: The microprocessor senses the
presence of the 8 V and 5 V (via the '+5V_CON' and
'+8V_CON' lines). If one (or both) of these voltages is (are) not
present, an error code is stored in the error buffer of the NVM,
and the set is put in the protection mode.
5.7.4HOP Related Protections
Every 200 ms, the status register of the HOP is read by the
OTC (via the I
2
C bus). If a protection signal is detected on one
of the inputs of the HOP, the relevant error bit in the HOP
register is set to “high”. If this error bit is still “high” after 1 s, the
OTC will store the error code in the error buffer of the NVM and,
depending on the relevancy of the error bit, the set will either
go into the protection mode or not.
The following protections are implemented:
•HFB (Horizontal Flyback): If the horizontal flyback is not
present, this is detected via the HOP (HFB_XRAY_PROT). One status bit is set to “high”. The error code
is stored in the error buffer and the set will go into the
protection mode.
•XPR (X-ray protection): If the HFB pulses are too low
(level detection), the HOP will detect this via the XPR-bit.
The error will be logged in the error buffer and the set will
go into protection mode.
Note: Both errors will be logged as HFB-failure.
5.7.5Hardware Related Protections
Due to the architecture (“hot” deflection), some protections
cannot be sensed by the microprocessor. Three of these
protections will lead to a protection on set level (Standby mode
and blinking LED), while another will only lead to a circuit
protection.
TV-set Protection
The following fault conditions will lead to a “complete” set
protection:
•BRIDGECOIL protection: This is sensed via the 'EW'
signal going to the base of TS7652 (via R3495 and D6499).
In a normal situation, the voltage on C2498 (diagram A4) is
high and TS7652 is conducting. When bridge coil 5422
(diagram A3) is short circuited, the voltage on C2498
changes to low, which will block TS7652. In this case, also
TS7641 will block and the voltage on 2642 will rise until
TS7443 is forced in conduction. The 'SUP-ENABLE' signal
(in normal operating condition -20 V) is shorted now to
ground level, which will force the Main Power Supply to
Standby mode.
•ARC protection: If there are “open” connections (e.g. bad
solder joints) in the high-energy deflection circuitry, this can
lead to damaging effects (read: fire). For that reason, the E/
W current is sensed (via 3479//3480). If this current
becomes too high, the “thyristor” circuit (TS7653 and
TS7654) is triggered. TS7442 is switched “on” and TS7443
is forced into conduction. . The 'SUP-ENABLE' signal is
shorted now to ground level, which will force the Main
Power Supply to Standby mode.
•NON_VFB (No vertical Flyback) protection: If the frame
stage generates no pulses, TS7641 will block. TS7443 is
now switched “on”, which will lead to Standby mode. So, in
normal operation condition, TS7641 and TS7652 are
conducting, while TS7443 is blocked.
Circuit Protection
The following fault condition will lead to a “partly” set protection:
•PROT1 (DC) protection: When a DC-voltage (positive or
negative) is sensed on one of the loudspeaker outputs, the
protection circuit (TS7704, 7705, 7706 and 7707 in
diagram A6) will put the IC7700 in Standby mode (via tristate input pin 6).
5.8Repair tips
5.8.1Miscellaneous
The relay you hear when you switch the set “on” (from Standby
or via the mains switch), is from the degaussing circuitry. It is
not used for switching the Power Supply (as done in the MGchassis).
Take care not to touch the “hot” heatsink while disconnecting
the SSB, despite the fact that the mains cord is out of the mains
socket. There can still be an annoying rest-voltage on the
heatsink for a short while. Advice: when you remove the SSB,
disconnect the Mains cord, but keep the Mains Switch “on”.
Do not try to measure on the SSB side, which is facing the “hot”
heatsink. This is dangerous. Most service test points are
guided to the “tuner” side and are indicated by the “service”
printing. Where the circuitry was too “crowded” for this printing,
you can find the correct location on the “test point overviews”.
A very large part of the LSP is “hot”, such as:
– The primary part of the Standby Supply.
– The whole Main supply (except for the secondary Audio
supply).
– And the complete deflection circuitry (so notice that the
deflection coil is hot!!).

The start up sequence differs from other sets (e.g. MG-sets or
EM2E-sets, but is same as in EM3E-set):
1. When the set is switched “on”, the 5 and 8 V lines
(‘+5V_CON’ and ‘+8V_CON’) of the standby power supply
are activated.
2. After the OTC senses them, the µP will address the HOP
via the I

6. When you switch “off” the set, this is done in a controlled
way via the POR signal [3].
Note: Standby is not directly achieved via the Standby line of
the microprocessor, but indirectly via the HOP circuitry.
5.8.3ComPair
This chassis does not have an IR transmitting LED (as in MGsets). Therefore, a “Service” (ComPair) connector is
implemented at the rear side of the set, which is directly
accessible (as in A10-, EM2E- and EM3E-sets). In addition to
this, there is also a blinking LED procedure to show the
contents of the error buffer.
When you use ComPair, you have the possibility to activate a
“stepwise start-up” mode. With this mode, you can initiate the
start-up sequence step by step. This also means that in certain
steps, some protections are not activated. This is sometimes
very convenient during repair (see also paragraph “Stepwise
Start-up / Shut-down”).
5.8.4Protections
There are “service pads” implemented on the SSB (items 9005
and 9006, outside the shielding), to force the set in SAM or
SDM (see also figure: “SSB removal (part 3)” in chapter
“Mechanical Instructions “). This will overrule the processorcontrolled protections, but not the hardware protections. This
means, that the A/D-input protections (5 and 8 V) and the I
“not-acknowledging” info of the feature box (FBX) and of the
Tuner are overruled.
Caution: When doing this, the service technician must know
what he is doing, as it could lead to damaging the set.
The ‘ARC’- and/or ‘BRIDGECOIL’ protection are hardly ever
triggered, however:
When you suspect the ‘ARC’ protection, look for bad solder
joints and smell. By interrupting resistor 3497, this protection is
disabled (special attention needed!).
When you suspect the ‘BRIDGECOIL’ protection, which can
also be due to, a too wide picture amplitude, shorten G and S
of the E/W MOSFET 7480. This will disable the protection. You
will now have minimal horizontal amplitude. Re-align the
horizontal amplitude in the SAM menu and remove the G/S
short of TS7480.
5.8.5Main Supply
The simplest way to repair the main supply is to check and
replace if necessary the gray marked components on the Main
Supply.
More detailed way:
1. Replace FET 7504 and zener 6505.
2. Remove the SSB panel.
3. Short B and E of TS7529, in order to put the Main Supply
in “on”-mode (TS7529 is blocking then).
Caution: To prevent that R3403 and TS7443 will be
damaged, first disable the HW-protection of the deflection circuit. Therefore short circuit C2642 on the
LSP (diagram A4).
4. Attach a load (60 W light bulb) to V
capacitor C2515 (the
BAT
supply can not work without a minimum load).
5. Use a variac, and slowly increase the V

. Measure
over sensing resistors R3514//15 if a nice sawtooth voltage
becomes available.
6. Also measure the V
. This may never exceed +141 V. If
BAT
it does, there is something wrong in the feedback circuitry
(e.g. regulator 7506).
Note: Be careful when measuring on the gate of FET TS7504.
This circuitry is very high ohmic and can easily be damaged
(first connect ground to measuring equipment, than measure
the gate).
5.8.6Standby Supply
The simplest way to repair the stand by supply is to check the
gray marked components on Stand By Supply.
5.8.7Line Deflection
2
C
The simplest way to repair the line deflection is to check the
gray marked components on Line Deflection.
5.8.8Frame Deflection
Caution: When the Frame Deflection circuitry is suspected, one
must be careful. Because there is a DC-voltage on the frame
deflection, the beam current could damage the CRT neck,
leading to a defective CRT.
Best thing to do is:
Interrupt the resistors 3403 and 3404 on the CRT panel
(diagram F1), in order to remove the “filament” voltage from the
tube (no beam current, so no chance of destroying the CRT).
Interrupt resistor 3403 on the LSP (diagram A4) to disable the
‘SUP-ENABLE’ line.
Measure with a multi-meter, or better with a oscilloscope, the
functionality of the Frame stage.
After you have found the cause, exchange the defective
component (e.g. TDA8177), and re-solder the interrupted
resistors.
