The 'G11' series all solid-state colour television chassis is designed for both colour and monochrome reception on 625 lines U.H.F. The 110° deflection 20AX picture tube is inherently self-converging and has "quick-vision" guns to provide a viewable picture within about five seconds of switching on.
Most of the circuitry is accommodated on five main printed panels (line scan, power supply, timebase, decoder and I.F.) which are vertically mounted on two sub-chassis. These sub-chassis are pivot-mounted and can be hinged open from the main chassis frame, giving easy access to both sides of the panels. To open out a sub-chassis "door", it is first necessary to release its securing clip at the top and remove a transit screw (if fitted) at the bottom. If lifted slightly, the sub-chassis will then be free to open out, and it will lock in the half open or fully open positions as required. Any of the main panels may be unclipped and removed from the receiver after unplugging the appropriate connectors.
Apart from the five main panels there are three smaller printed panels (mains input, dynamic correction and C.R.T. base). These smaller panels are easily detachable and may be withdrawn to the extent of their connecting leads in order to gain access for component changing. If necessary, the connecting leads may be unplugged, enabling the panels to be removed from the receiver
The main chassis is pivoted at the bottom and after removing the two moulded retaining clips at the top it may be lowered through about 30° to gain access to the deflection coil assembly etc. The top and bottom chassis supporting brackets are adjustable to accommodate different cabinet sizes.

For the remainder of the specification (e.g. cabinet dimensions etc.) refer to the supplementary service information for the model in question.
Products offered for sale may differ from those described or illustrated in this Service Information due to later production changes in specifications, components or place of manufacture. The contents of this Service Information are therefore not to be treated as representations as to the current availability of products as described or as to products actually offered for sale.
The main circuit diagram of the 'G11' chassis is provided on the large separate sheet accompanying this manual. Different background colours have been used to identify those parts of the circuit which are located on the major printed circuit panels. For example, the decoder panel section of the circuit is blue, the line scan panel section is mauve and so on. Minor units and cabinet mounted items are not coloured.
In order to keep the main circuit diagram applicable to different models, some parts (such as the programme selector unit) which may vary from model to model are shown in a simplified form. For full details of such items, reference should be made to the supplementary service information for the model in question.
In order to keep the main circuit diagram to a reasonable size, the internal details of circuit units and integrated circuits are omitted. To distinguish circuit units from integrated circuits their outlines are drawn differently (dotted lines and solid lines respectively). Where it has been found impracticable to show connections
between various parts of the main circuit, an arrow with an identifying letter A, B, C, etc. is shown which lines up with a corresponding arrow and letter at the point of connection.
Individual circuit diagrams for each panel and unit are provided in this service manual in order to supplement the main circuit diagram. The internal details of the circuit units and integrated circuits which were omitted from the main diagram are shown in the individual circuits; the I.C.s being represented in block diagram form.
As far as possible, the layout of each individual circuit has been kept similar to the corresponding part of the main circuit diagram. Engineers can therefore turn from one to the other without the difficulty of interpreting a different layout. The major individual circuits have background colours to match the corresponding parts of the main circuit diagram.
The chassis has several H.T. and L.T. d.c. supply lines and on the circuit diagrams these are labelled H.T.1, L.T.1 and so on. The following table lists all the supply lines, giving their origins and nominal voltages :-
Supply line | Origin | Nominal voltage |
---|---|---|
H.T.1 | Power supply panel | 156V stabilised |
H.T.2 | H.T.1 via R4079 | 125V |
Н.Т.З | Line output stage | 165V |
H.T.4 | Line output stage | 800V |
L.T.1 | Line output stage | 16V |
L.T.2 | L.T.1 via IC5073 | 12V stabilised |
L.T.3 | Line output stage | 37V |
L.T.4 | Line output stage | 37V |
In order to identify a particular component in the circuit with its position in the receiver, a coding system for component numbers is used. For instance, any component with a 5000 number is
Position | Position number group | Panel or unit prefix |
---|---|---|

located on the I.F. panel, and a component with a 2000 number will be found on the timebase panel.
A coding system is also used for the multi-way sockets. Taking the decoder panel as a first example; the wiring to this panel terminates in five sockets. These are given letter identifications from A to E. The prefix number for the decoder panel is then added before the letter, giving 6A, 6B, 6C etc. A contact number is then added after the letter so that 6A4 for example, denotes contact 4 of socket A on the decoder panel.
Taking the line scan panel as a second example; there are five sockets here and these are given the letters A to E. The prefix for the line scan panel (3) is then added to the letters, thereby distinguishing sockets A, B, C etc. on the line scan panel from sockets A, B, C on any of the other panels. The contact number is added after the letter, as already described, so that the reference 3D2 for example, denotes contact 2 of socket D on the line scan panel.
It will be noted that, in some instances, two or more sockets engage with a single fixed plug. In view of this, the identification letter always applies to the socket, since the plug is effectively two or more connectors in one, and therefore cannot be identified by a single letter.
Single lead connectors are denoted by the letter X where the lead joins different panels or units, or the letters PC where both ends of the lead are on the same panel or unit, e.g. PC2—the colour killer link.
The above table gives the full coding system for component numbers and also the panel or unit prefixes as used for connectors.
The 'G11' series of receivers are designed and manufactured to comply with the British Standard for Safety, BS415. Engineers should always ensure that maintenance and repairs uphold the original performance and safety standards, taking particular care that safety hazards are not introduced by the inadvertent or deliberate 'defeat' of any mechanical or electrical safety feature.
The receiver contains certain components which have been specially chosen to ensure safety under both normal and fault conditions. These components are identified in this service infor-
mation and also in the receiver itself, by the safety symbol . Should a safety component need to be replaced, it is essential to use a component of the identical type (see spare parts lists) which must be mounted in exactly the same manner.
WARNING: If the receiver is operated on "raw" (non-isolated) mains, the chassis will be at approximately half mains potential. This applies whether the mains lead is connected in accordance with its colour code or not. In view of this it is recommended that a mains isolating transformer (rated at not less than 500VA) should be used for the receiver supply when servicing.
Never connect earthed test equipment to any part of the receiver (other than the aerial socket) unless the receiver mains supply is isolated.
The voltage and currents on the cathode ray tube are higher in a colour receiver than in a monochrome type, and, as a result, the X-rays will have greater penetrating power and will be present in larger quantities. In practice, this means that suitable protection has to be built into a receiver in order to reduce the radiation hazard to an acceptable level. It is important that personnel involved in installation and servicing should be aware of any possible dangers. The radiation problems are confined to X-rays generated by the cathode ray tube. During development of the 'G11' series colour television chassis, special attention has been given to these points. With the back-plate removed, no significant radiation is present, and therefore the maximum dose rate is much less than the accepted danger level. This low level of radiation is due to :---
Any increase in H.T. voltage would cause the E.H.T. voltage to rise, resulting in possible forward X-ray radiation from the C.R.T. face. An over-voltage protection circuit has therefore been incorporated on the power supply panel. This protection circuit is formed by the gas-filled glow-switch GS4038 in series with the thermal fuse R4067 the latter being a wire-wound resistor with "spring-off" contacts which are normally soldered together.
If the H.T. voltage rises above about 195-205 volts due to a fault in the receiver, the glow-switch will "strike" and operate so as to connect R4067 between the H.T. line and chassis. The glowswitch will then open and close alternately (assuming that the over-voltage condition persists) until the heat dissipated by R4067 melts the solder holding its "spring-off" contacts. The contacts will then open, breaking the H.T. feed to the receiver.
If R4067 operates, it should be reset (after clearing fault) by resoldering the "spring-off" contacts using 60/40 grade solder.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO OVERRIDE OR DISABLE THE OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION CIRCUIT.
The C.R.T. final anode will store an E.H.T. charge for some time after the receiver is switched off. Before handling the C.R.T. (or the E.H.T. lead), it will be necessary to discharge the C.R.T. to avoid electric shock.
The only safe method of doing this is to discharge the E.H.T. terminal of the C.R.T. to the braiding which earths the tube's external aquadag coating, using a suitably insulated lead and probe. Connect the earth end of the lead first.
DAMAGE TO SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES MAY RESULT IF THE C.R.T. IS DISCHARGED TO THE METAL CHASSIS FRAME (OR ANY PART OF THE RECEIVER OTHER THAN THE TUBE AQUADAG).
THE C.R.T. CONTAINS A HIGH VACUUM AND THEREFORE IT MUST BE HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE, TAKING ALL APPROPRIATE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, INCLUDING THE WEARING OF SUITABLE EYE PROTECTION.
Care should be taken when measuring voltages in the trigger pulse phase control stage (T4045) since the use of a low impedance meter can cause an undesirable temporary rise in H.T. voltage. A 20kΩ/V meter (e.g. AVO 8) is satisfactory, but avoid using ranges below 25V. Alternatively, use a high impedance electronic type meter.
High voltages are present on the C.R.T. base panel when the receiver is operating. In order to protect service engineers from electric shock (particularly while adjusting the G2 controls) a moulded insulating cover is clipped over the print side of the panel. This cover may be removed if it becomes necessary to gain access to the print side of the panel, but it is important to ensure that it is refitted afterwards.
The aerial chosen for use with the receiver should be for the correct group of U.H.F. channels applicable to the area in which the receiver is being installed. It must also be capable of supplying a good signal, free from noise and multi-path reflections.
A socket can be identified as the connector which contains the female contacts and may be found either in a fixed position or on a fly-lead; similarly a plug contains the pins. Most sockets have pin numbers moulded in the plastic housing. Some of the plugs
Sockets should never be removed from the plugs by pulling on the leads, since this practice may result in connections being damaged.
A number of test points are provided, chiefly to facilitate adjustments. Each test point is identified on the printed panel by a number with the prefix TP, e.g. TP1, TP2, TP3, etc. The test points are similarly indicated on the circuit diagrams etc. The following table lists all the test points :--
Test point | Location | Circuit position |
---|---|---|
TP1 | Power supply panel | H.T.1 line (FS4037) |
TP2 | Decoder panel | pin 4 U6200 |
ТРЗ | Decoder panel | pin 8 U6200 |
TP4 | Decoder panel | pin 5, IC6520 |
TP5 | Decoder panel | pin 9, IC6520 |
TP6 | Decoder panel | L.T.2 line |
TP7 | Decoder panel | junct. R6074/R6075 |
TP8 | Decoder panel | junct. R6072/R6106 |
ТР9 | Decoder panel | pin 17, U6200 |
TP10 | Decoder panel | pin 13, IC6520 |
TP11 | Decoder panel | pin 14, IC6520 |
These fly-leads are located on the decoder panel and are provided to facilitate servicing and adjustment operations. The fly-lead PC2 should be connected to pin 'a' for normal operation. To disable (override) the colour killer, unplug PC2. To remove colour connect PC2 to position 'b'. To remove the luminance signal unplug the fly-lead PC1.
'Earth' connections for test equipment must be made as close as practicable to the part of the circuit under investigation. Failure to observe this precaution may result in misleading results and/or damage to semiconductors. To give an example, when measuring voltages around the field deflection integrated circuit (IC2520), the negative meter lead must be connected to the print 'earth' for this I.C. (as close as possible to pin 1) and NOT to the metal chassis frame.
Caution: Most semiconductor heat sinks are above chassis potential and therefore cannot be used as 'earthing' points for test equipment.
R4067 is dealt with in Section D, note 4.
R5046 is a thermal fuse of the wirewound resistor type with "spring-off" contacts. It is located on the I.F. panel and its function is to protect certain parts of the receiver against the effects of excessive current consumption in the sound output stage. If R5046 operates, it should be reset (after clearing fault) by resoldering the "spring-off" part to the end of the resistor lead-out wire using 60/40 grade solder.
When replacing any semiconductor device which uses a heat sink, a coating of heat sink compound should be applied to the thermal contact surface of the device before it is clamped to the heat sink. In some cases, an insulating pad is fitted between the device and its heat sink. This pad must be correctly refitted when replacing the device.
When fitting a new integrated circuit, care should be taken to ensure that it is inserted into the panel the correct way round, i.e. with the indicating notch on the I.C. adjacent to hole 1 on the printed panel.
Replacing the field integrated circuit (IC2520)
The receiver contains four signal processing circuit units as follows:-
(a), (b) and (c) incorporate adjustable tuned circuits which are pre-aligned during manufacture. THE ALIGNMENT OF THESE UNITS MUST NOT BE DISTURBED. If a replacement unit is fitted, no alignment will be required.
(d) incorporates only one adjustment, the preset brightness control (R6212) which, if necessary, should be adjusted as described in Section F.
It is generally recommended that if a fault occurs in a circuit unit, then the entire unit should be replaced (particularly in the case of the U.H.F. tuner unit). In some instances, it may be possible to effect a repair by replacing a transistor or I.C. for example, but engineers are advised that the majority of circuit unit components are not normally available separately. If replacement components are fitted, ensure that their leads are cut short after soldering to prevent them touching the screening can.
After replacing the luminance/chrominance control unit (U6200) (or the integrated circuit within it), it is advisable to realign the decoder (see Section J) in order to maintain optimum performance.
Avoid obstructing the square ventilation holes in the vision detector unit (U5600). Do not interchange the screening cans of circuit units.
Most of the panels and units are coded with a BA, BY or HU number, relating to production changes. This number will be found on a label attached to the unit. A higher number does not necessarily indicate a later assembly.
When servicing a panel or unit, check the BA/BY/HU number and refer to the appropriate illustrations, together with any information in the text relating to the BA/BY/HU code.
Set R4042 to its mid-position then connect the receiver to a 240V a.c. supply having a rating of at least 500VA. Tune the receiver to a transmission then switch off all three guns of the C.R.T. (gun switches located on C.R.T. base panel). Connect a d.c. voltmeter between chassis and TP1 (on the power supply panel). Adjust R4042 for a reading of 156 volts then switch on all the C.R.T. guns.
Tune the receiver to a transmission. Adjust R2045 to the centre of its "hold" range.
Tune the receiver to a transmission. Temporarily remove the video input to the timebase panel by connecting a shorting link across C2043 (field and line sync. will now be lost). Adjust R2002 for minimum line slip then remove the shorting link. The picture should lock.
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a suitable display from a pattern generator. Adjust the rotatable magnet of L1501 using a strift (2.4mm) square-ended non-metallic tool for optimum line linearity.
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a suitable display from a pattern generator. Adjust R2058 and R2052 in conjunction with one another to obtain correct height and optimum field linearity consistent with satisfactory vertical centring of the picture.
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a cross-hatch display from a pattern generator. Set R2123 to its fully anti-
clockwise position (viewed from the component side of the panel). Adjust R2137 to straighten the vertical lines at the edges of the screen. Adjust R2123 to straighten the vertical lines in the corners of the screen, re-adjusting R2137 as necessary to maintain overall straightness.
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a suitable display from a pattern generator. Adjust R2133 so that the picture just overlaps the sides of the screen.
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a pattern generator providing a suitable display for horizontal centring adjustment. Adjust R2025 to centre the picture horizontally within the screen
Tune the receiver to a test-card transmission or a pattern generator display incorporating definition lines. Adjust the brightness and contrast controls to a slightly higher than normal setting. Adjust the control knob of the focus unit U315E for best definition of the verticals in the outer areas of the picture.
Note : The decoder alignment must be correct before carrying out this adjustment.
Tune the receiver to a colour transmission. Set the contrast and brightness controls for a normal picture. Set the customer's colour control to maximum then adjust R6012 to obtain slightly over-saturated colours. Finally, check that a reasonable range of colour saturation is obtainable with the customer's colour control.
Tune the receiver to a known noise-free picture (preferably a test-card transmission or a suitable display from a pattern generator). Turn R5013 slowly clockwise (viewed from the component side of the panel) until "noise" just begins to show on the picture* then "back-off" the control tc a position just past the point where the picture becomes free of noise.
*If the signal strength is very high, the picture may become overl oaded and/or unstable (instead of noisy) as the control is turned clockwise, in which case the aerial input must be attenuated before the A.G.C. crossover can be adjusted. Remove the attenuation after adjusting.
The preferred adjustment procedure is given in Method A. If an oscilloscope is not available, then Method B should be employed, but the result obtained will be less precise.
Method A
(Continued on Page Nine)

(d) The receiver is fitted with an automatic degaussing circuit which operates each time the receiver is switched on from cold. However, if the C.R.T. and/or associated metal parts have been subjected to extra strong magnetic fields, it may be necessary to pass an external degaussing coil across the C.R.T. face and in each corner before correction/purity adjustments are carried out.
At no time whilst using an external degaussing coil should it be allowed to come closer to the face of the C.R.T. than is necessary for complete degaussing, otherwise permanent damage may be caused to the shadowmask plate inside the tube.
(e) For optimum results, the pattern generator used for checking and adjusting the static and dynamic correction should provide a correctly centred cross-hatch pattern, i.e. the centre vertical line and centre horizontal line should intersect in the centre of the screen.
The receiver must be allowed to warm up for at least one hour before commencing the static correction adjustments. During this warm-up period a picture or reasonably bright raster should be displayed to enable the C.R.T. shadowmask to reach its normal operating temperature.
The purity must now be adjusted (see page 11).
Page Ten
The purity adjustment procedure must be carried out with the C.R.T. shadowmask cool. The receiver must therefore be switched off and allowed to cool down for 10–15 minutes before adjusting. When the receiver is switched on again, the brightness and contrast settings must be kept low throughout the purity adjustment procedure to avoid heating of the shadowmask by high beam current. Once the purity has been adjusted with the shadowmask cool, it will then automatically remain correct throughout the normal range of operating temperatures.
Fig. 6—Receiver screen, showing areas X and Y
Method A—starting with the deflection yoke fully forward (nearest screen)
Adjust the colour purity lever to equalise the degree of impurity in the areas X and Y. Disregard the appearance of the rest of the screen at this stage.
Note: If necessary, move the deflection yoke a little further back to obtain optimum purity during steps 9 and 10 above. Do not move the yoke further back than is absolutely necessary.
Method B-starting with the deflection yoke fully back (away from screen)
The remainder of Method B is the same as steps 9–12 of Method A which must now be carried out.
The receiver must be allowed to warm up for at least one hour before commencing the dynamic correction adjustments. During this warm-up period a picture or reasonably bright raster should be displayed to enable the C.R.T. shadowmask to reach its normal operating temperature.
Caution: Some parts of the circuitry on the dynamic correction panel operate at high potential. Use a non-metallic trimming tool for adjustments.
Set the field symmetry parabola control (R1539) fully clockwise (viewed from the print side of the panel). Adjust the field symmetry tilt control (R1541) to superimpose the red and blue central vertical lines (see Fig. 7b). If necessary, slightly "back-off" R1539 from its fully clockwise position to obtain optimum results.
26 inch receivers
Adjust the field symmetry tilt control (R1541) in conjunction with the field symmetry parabola control (R1539) to superimpose the red and blue central vertical lines (see Figs. 7b and 7c).
Note: Plug PC3 has two positions 'b'—these are electrically the same.
Adjust the field balance-top control (R1528) to superimpose the red and blue horizontal lines at the top of the vertical axis of the screen (see Fig. 7f).
8. Adjust the field balance-bottom control (R1529) to superimpose the red and blue horizontal lines at the bottom of the vertical axis of the screen (see Fig. 7g). Finally, switch on the green gun.
The grey scale tracking adjustments should be carried out in subdued lighting conditions.
The controls for setting the "white tone" in the grey scale tracking procedure are accurately adjusted during manufacture of the receiver. The following instruction is given for guidance only, since it is necessary to use special equipment to obtain precise results.
Tune the receiver to a pattern generator and display a pattern containing a large area of white. Alternatively, tune to a transmission containing an area of white, e.g. test-card F. Adjust the green drive control (R6094) and/or the blue drive control (R6106) to obtain a neutral white.
Three methods of decoder alignment are described. Method A can be performed using any good pattern generator with a standard colour bar output (or a colour bar test transmission) in conjunction with an oscilloscope display. Methods B and C use a Philips pattern generator (type PM5506, PM5508 or PM5509). Each of these generators provide special test patterns to enable decoder alignment to be performed using the receiver screen as an indicator, therefore Methods B and C will generally prove quicker and more convenient than Method A. Many of the decoder preset adjustments are inter-dependent.
Many of the decoder preset adjustments are inter-dependent, therefore when any decoder re-alignment is required it is recommended that the entire procedure for the chosen method is carried out in the sequence given.
Before commencing decoder alignment, engineers should ensure that all other preset adjustments are correctly set, including the grey scale tracking.

7. Adjust the d.c. balance control R6068 for minimum colour slip (colour bars almost stationary).
Note: The receiver takes a few seconds to respond to adjustment of R6068.
If this is found to be a disadvantage, the time taken to respond can be shortened by connecting a 6k8Ω resistor across C6060. Remove the 6k8Ω resistor after adjusting R6068.

coincidence of the "double pictures" seen on the 'scope—see Figs. 11E (before adjustment) and 11F (after adjustment.) These coils should be adjusted alternately in small steps in such a way that when the adjustments are completed, the cores are both at approximately the same position in their formers.

Steps 1–10 of Method B are the same as steps 1–10 of Method A. The remainder of Method B is as follows :---

Steps 1-10 of Method C are the same as steps 1-10 of Method A.
Note: The colour "BAR" pattern provided by the Philips PM5509 generator normally has a white reference section across the lower part of the display. If desired, the pattern may be changed to full length colour bars by making a simple internal adjustment to the generator (refer to the generator handbook for details), but either version of the "BAR" display is suitable for steps 1–10.
The remainder of Method C is as follows:------------------------------------
Each individual circuit unit on the I.F. panel is pre-aligned during manufacture using special equipment. If a replacement unit or tuner is fitted no alignment will be required. Engineers are advised not to disturb the trimming of R.F. or I.F. circuits (except the sound guadrature coil L5025 which, if necessary, may be adjusted as described below).
