Proper service and repair is important to the safe, reliable operation of all Philips Consumer Electronics Company** Equipment. The service procedures recommended by Philips and described in this service manual are effective methods of performing service operations. Some of these service operations require the use of tools specially designed for the purpose. The special tools should be used when and as recommended.

It is important to note that this manual contains various CAUTIONS and NOTICES which should be carefully read in order to minimize the risk of personal injury to service personnel. The possibility exists that improper service methods may damage the equipment. It also is important to understand that these CAUTIONS and NOTICES ARE NOT EXHAUSTIVE. Philips could not possibly know, evaluate and advise the service trade of all conceivable ways in which service might be done or of the possible hazardous consequences of each way. Consequently, Philips has not undertaken any such broad evaluation. Accordingly, a servicer who uses a service procedure or tool which is not recommended by Philips must first satisfy himself thoroughly that neither his safety nor the safe operation of the equipment will be jeopardized by the service method selected.

** Hereafter throughout this manual, Philips Consumer Electronics Company will be referred to as Philips.

WARNING

Critical components having special safety characteristics are identified with an by the Ref. No. in the parts list and enclosed within a broken line* (where several critical components are grouped in one area) along with the safety symbol on the schematics or exploded views.

Use of substitute replacement parts which do not have the same specified safety characteristics may create shock, fire, or other hazards.

Under no circumstances should the original design be modified or altered without written permission from Philips. Philips assumes no liability, express or implied, arising out of any unauthorized modification of design. Servicer assumes all liability.

2.4 Projection Size and Projection Distance

There is an error of ±5% for the design value.

• The horizontal projection position is left-right symmetrical

• with the lens in the center. When bright light enters the remote control

• light-intercepting section, it might not be possible to use the remote control. Be careful when locating the unit near lighting.

LC5231/5241 LC5231/52412-3 3-1

The projection distances for correct focus (focal point) are

• the following values from the lens surface. LC5231: 1.2 m ~ 9.8 m LC5241: 1.2 m ~ 9.4 m Set within this range.

This diagram expresses the projection distance and screen size for Tele (smaller screen) and Wide (larger screen) positions of the zoom lens.

3. Warnings & Notes

Warnings

Safety regulations require that the unit should be returned in its original condition and that components identical to the original components are used. The safety components are indicated by the symbol .

2. ESD

All ICs and many other semiconductors are sensitive to electrostatic discharges (ESD). Careless handling during repair can drastically shorten the life. Make sure that during repair you are connected by a pulse band with resistance to the same potential as the earth of the unit. Keep components and tools also at this same potential.

3. When repairing a unit, always connect it to the mains voltage

via an isolating transformer. The lamp supply and the lamp housing are not mains isolated.

4. Be careful when taking measurements in the high-voltage

section.

5. Never replace modules or other components while the unit is

switched on.

Notes

The direct voltages and oscillograms should be measured with regard to earth ( ), or hot earth ( ) as this is called.

2. The semiconductors indicated in the circuit diagram and in

the parts lists are completely interchangeable per position with the semiconductors in the unit, irrespective of the type indication on these semiconductors.

6. When making settings, use plastic rather than metal tools.

This will prevent any short circuits and the danger of a circuit becoming unstable.

7. After repair the wiring should be fastened once more in the

cable clamps for this purpose.

8. In order to prevent measuring errors, the heat sinks should not

be used as reference points for measurements.

9. Various parts get hot during operation. Please ensure that

they are cooled down before servicing.

10. The lighthouse (optical part) is extremely sensitive to dust.

This part should only be opened in a dust-free environment (class 100 according to the US federal standard 209).

5.1 Optical system principle block diagram

Description of function

1. Lamp Light source: Flashes 300 times per second as AC lamp.

2. RGBW color wheel Divides light into the RGBW components using color filters. The W component allows a bright white to be reproduced. A rotation detecting sensor is used to time the lamp which is turned OFF at the color filter seam. The maximum speed is 7,200 rpm.

3. Condenser lens and light tunnel Collects light divided into RGBW components by the color filter and projects them on the effective surface of reflection mirror 1. Use of the light tunnel lens increases the peripheral intensity of illumination. It reduces the difference of brightness between the screen center and periphery, reproduces a clear view of even the corners of the screen.

G B R W

4. Reflection mirror 1 and 2 Reflects light beamed on the mirror effective surface, to the DMD effective surface.

5. DMD chip Reflects the light by switching on and OFF according to the input source at the ratio of color components for each dot.

6. Projection lens Enlarges and projects light from the DMD.

7. Screen The projected light (RGBW components) forms a picture with colors synthesized through afterglow.
