IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Prior to shipment from the factory, our products are strictly inspected for recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

Safety Precautions for LCD TV Circuit

1. Before returning an instrument to the customer, always make a safety check of the

entire instrument, including, but not limited to, the following items:

a. Be sure that no built-in protective devices are

defective and have been defeated during servicing. (1) Protective shields are provided on this chassis to protect both the technician and the customer. Correctly replace all missing protective shields, including any removed for servicing convenience. (2) When reinstalling the chassis and/or other assembly in the cabinet, be sure to put back in place all protective devices, including but not limited to, nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpapers, adjustment and compartment covers/shields, and isolation resistor/capacitor networks. Do not operate this instrument or

permit it to be operated without all protective devices correctly installed and functioning. Servicers who defeat safety features or fail to perform safety checks may be liable for any resulting damage.

b. Be sure that there are no cabinet openings

through which an adult or child might be able to insert their fingers and contact a hazardous voltage. Such openings include, but are not limited to, (1) spacing between the Liquid Crystal Panel and the cabinet mask, (2) excessively wide cabinet ventilation slots, and (3) an improperly fitted and/or incorrectly secured cabinet back cover.

c. Antenna Cold Check - With the instrument AC

plug removed from any AC source, connect an electrical jumper across the two AC plug prongs. Place the instrument AC switch in the on position. Connect one lead of an ohmmeter to the AC plug prongs tied together and touch the other ohmmeter lead in turn to each tuner antenna input exposed terminal screw and, if applicable, to the coaxial connector. If the measured resistance is less than 1.0 megohm or greater than 5.2 megohm, an abnormality exists that must be corrected before the instrument is returned to the customer. Repeat this test with the instrument AC switch in the off position.

d. Leakage Current Hot Check - With the

instrument completely reassembled, plug the AC line cord directly into a 120 V AC outlet. (Do not use an isolation transformer during this test.) Use a leakage current tester or a metering system that complies with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C101.1 Leakage Current for Appliances and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 1410, (50.7). With the instrument AC switch first in the on position and then in the off position, measure from a known earth ground (metal water pipe, conduit, etc.) to all exposed metal parts of the instrument (antennas, handle brackets, metal cabinet, screw heads, metallic overlays, control shafts, etc.), especially any exposed metal parts that offer an electrical return path to the chassis. Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milli-ampere. Reverse the instrument power cord plug in the outlet and repeat the test.

READING SHOULD NOT BE ABOVE 0.5 mA

ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS SPECIFIED HEREIN INDICATE A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD THAT MUST BE ELIMINATED BEFORE RETURNING THE INSTRUMENT TO THE CUSTOMER OR BEFORE CONNECTING THE ANTENNA OR ACCESSORIES.

2. Read and comply with all caution and safety-

related notes on or inside the receiver cabinet, on the receiver chassis, or on the Liquid Crystal Panel.

3. Design Alteration Warning - Do not alter or add to the mechanical or electrical design of this TV receiver. Design alterations and additions, including, but not limited to circuit modifications and the addition of items such as auxiliary audio and/or video output connections, might alter the safety characteristics of this receiver and create a hazard to the user. Any design alterations or additions will void the manufacturer's warranty and may make you, the servicer, responsible for personal injury or property damage resulting therefrom.

4. Hot Chassis Warning -

a. Some TV receiver chassis are electrically

connected directly to one conductor of the AC power cord and maybe safety-serviced without an isolation transformer only if the AC power plug is inserted so that the chassis is connected to the ground side of the AC power source. To confirm that the AC power plug is inserted correctly, with an AC voltmeter, measure between the chassis and a known earth ground. If a voltage reading in excess of

1.0 V is obtained, remove and reinsert the AC power plug in the opposite polarity and again measure the voltage potential between the chassis and a known earth ground.

b. Some TV receiver chassis normally have 85V

AC(RMS) between chassis and earth ground regardless of the AC plug polarity. This chassis can be safety-serviced only with an isolation transformer inserted in the power line between the receiver and the AC power source, for both personnel and test equipment protection.

c. Some TV receiver chassis have a secondary

ground system in addition to the main chassis ground. This secondary ground system is not isolated from the AC power line. The two ground systems are electrically separated by insulation material that must not be defeated or altered.

5. Observe original lead dress. Take extra care to assure correct lead dress in the following areas: a. near sharp edges, b. near thermally hot parts-be sure that leads and components do not touch thermally hot parts, c. the AC supply, d. high voltage, and, e. antenna wiring. Always inspect in all areas for pinched, out of place, or frayed wiring. Check AC power cord for damage.

6. Components, parts, and/or wiring that appear to have overheated or are otherwise damaged should be replaced with components, parts, or wiring that meet original specifications. Additionally, determine the cause of overheating and/or damage and, if necessary, take corrective action to remove any potential safety hazard.

7. Product Safety Notice - Some electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics which are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can the protection they give necessarily be obtained by replacing them with components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by a # on schematics and in parts lists. Use of a substitute replacement that does not have the same safety characteristics as the recommended replacement part might create shock, fire, and/or other hazards. The product's safety is under review continuously and new instructions are issued whenever appropriate. Prior to shipment from the factory, our products are strictly inspected to confirm they comply with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold. However, in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

2-2 LTVN_ISP

Precautions during Servicing

A. Parts identified by the # symbol are critical for

safety. Replace only with part number specified.

B. In addition to safety, other parts and assemblies

are specified for conformance with regulations applying to spurious radiation. These must also be replaced only with specified replacements. Examples: RF converters, RF cables, noise blocking capacitors, and noise blocking filters, etc.

C. Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

1) Wires covered with PVC tubing

2) Double insulated wires

3) High voltage leads

D. Use specified insulating materials for hazardous

live parts. Note especially:

1) Insulation Tape

2) PVC tubing

3) Spacers

4) Insulators for transistors.

E. When replacing AC primary side components

(transformers, power cord, etc.), wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.

F. Observe that the wires do not contact heat

producing parts (heat sinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)

G. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp

edged or pointed parts.

H. When a power cord has been replaced, check that

5~6 kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.

I. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.

J. Use care that foreign objects (screws, solder

droplets, etc.) do not remain inside the set.

K. When connecting or disconnecting the internal

connectors, first, disconnect the AC plug from the AC supply outlet.

L. When installing parts or assembling the cabinet

parts, be sure to use the proper screws and tighten certainly.

2-3 LTVN_ISP

Safety Check after Servicing

Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts and wires have been returned to original positions. Afterwards, perform the following tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify compliance with safety standards.

1. Clearance Distance

When replacing primary circuit components, confirm specified clearance distance (d) and (d') between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. (See Fig. 1)

Instructions for Handling Semiconductors

Electrostatic breakdown of the semi-conductors may occur due to a potential difference caused by electrostatic charge during unpacking or repair work.

1. Ground for Human Body

Be sure to wear a grounding band (1 MΩ) that is properly grounded to remove any static electricity that may be charged on the body.

2. Ground for Workbench

Be sure to place a conductive sheet or copper plate with proper grounding (1 MΩ) on the workbench or other surface, where the semi-conductors are to be placed. Because the static electricity charge on clothing will not escape through the body grounding band, be careful to avoid contacting semi-conductors with your clothing.

SERVICE MODES, ERROR CODES, and FAULT FINDING

1Test Points

In the chassis schematics and layout overviews, the test points are mentioned. In the schematics, test points are indicated with “Fxxx” or “Ixxx”, in the layout overviews with a “half-moon” sign. As most signals are digital, it will be difficult to measure waveforms with a standard oscilloscope.

Perform measurements under the following conditions:

• Service Default Mode.

• Video: Color bar signal.

• Audio: 3 kHz left, 1 kHz right.

2 Se rvice Modes

The Service Mode feature is split into four parts:

• Service Default Mode (SDM).

• Service Alignment Mode (SAM).

• Customer Service Mode (CSM).

• Computer Aided Repair Mode (ComPair).

SDM and SAM offer features, whic engineer to repair/align a TV set. Some features are:

• A pre-defined situation to ensure measurements can be made under uniform conditions (SDM).

• Activates the blinking LED procedure for error identification when no picture is available (SDM).

• The possibility to overrule software protections when SDM is entered via the Service pins.

• Make alignments (e.g. White T one), (de)select options, enter options codes, reset the error buffer (SAM).

• Display information (“SDM” right corner of screen, error buffer, software version, operating hours, options

The CSM is a Service Mode that can be enabled by the consumer. The CSM displays diagnosis information, which the customer can forward to the dealer or call centre. In CSM mode, “CSM”, is displayed in the top right corner of the screen. The information provided in CSM and the purpose of CSM is to:

• Increase the home repair hit rate.

• Decrease the number of nuisance calls.

• Solved customers' problem without home visit.

2.1 General

h can be used by the Service

or “SAM” indication in upper

and option codes, sub menus).

Life Timer

During the life time cycle of the TV set, a timer is kept (called “Op. Hour”). It counts the normal operation hours (not the Stand-by hours). The actual value of the timer is displayed in SDM and SAM in a decimal value. Every two soft-resets increase the hour by +1. Standby hours are not counted.

Software Identification, Version and Cluster

The software ID, version, and cluster will be shown in the main menu display of SDM, SAM, and CSM. The screen will show: “AAAABCD X.YY”, where:

• AAAA

• B

is the chassis name: LC92. (Development chassis)

is the region indication: E= Europe, A= AP/China, U=

NAFTA, L= LATAM.

• C is the display indication: L= LCD, P= Plasma.

• D is the language/feature indication: P= Philips, M= Magnavox.

• X is the main version number: this is updated with a major change of specification (incompatible with the previous software version). Numbering will go from 1 - 9 and A - Z. – If the main version number changes, the new version

number is written in the NVM.

– If the main version number changes, the default

settings are loaded.

•

is the sub version number: this is updated with a minor

change (backwards compatible with the previous versions) Numbering will go from 00 - 99. – If the sub version number changes, the new version

number is written in the NVM.

– If the NVM is fresh, the software identification, version,

and cluster will be written to NVM.

Display Option Code Selection

When after an SSB or display exchange, the display option code is not set properly, it will result in a TV with “no display”. Therefore, it is required to set this display option code after such a repair.

To do so, press the following key sequence on a standard RC transmitter: “062598"directly followed by MENU and "xxx" where “xxx” is a 3 digit decimal value of the panel type: see column “Panel Code” in table “Option Codes OP1...OP7” (ch.

8), or see sticker on the side/bottom of the cabinet. When the

value is accepted and stored in NVM, the set will switch to Stand-by, to indicate that the process has been completed.

Some items are applicable to all Service Modes or are general. These are listed below.

During this algorithm, the NVM-content must be filtered, because several items in the NVM are TV-related and not SSBrelated (e.g. Model and Prod. S/N). Therefore, “Model” and “Prod. S/N” data is changed into “See Type Plate”. In case a call centre or cons

umer reads “See Type Plate” in CSM mode, he needs to look to the side/bottom sticker to identify the set, for further actions.

2.4 Customer Service Mode (CSM)

Purpose

The Customer Service Mode shows error codes and information on the TV’s operation settings. A call centre can instruct the customer (by telephone) to enter CSM in order to identify the status of the set. This helps them to diagnose problems and failures in the TV before making a service call. The CSM is a read-only mode; therefore, modifications are not possible in this mode.

Specifications

• Ignore “Service unfriendly modes”.

• Line number for every line (to make CSM language independent).

• Set the screen mode to full screen (all contents on screen is visible).

• After leaving the Customer Service Mode, the original settings are restored.

• Possibility to use enter the specific channel number on the RC.

How to Activate

To activate CSM, press the following key sequence on a standard remote control transmitter: “123654” (do not allow the display to time out between entries while keying the sequence).

3 Error Codes

3.1 Introduction

Error codes are required to indicate failures in the TV set. In principle a unique error code is available for every:

• Activated protection.

• Failing I2C device.

• General I2C error.

• SDRAM failure.

The last five errors, stored in the NVM, are shown in the Service menu’s. This is called the error buffer. The error code buffer contains all errors detected since the last time the buffer was erased. The buffer is written from left to right. When an error occurs that is not yet in the error code buffer, it is displayed at the left side and all other errors shift one position to the right. An error will be added to the buffer if this error differs from any error in the buffer. The last found error is displayed on the left. An error with a designated error code may never lead to a deadlock situation. This means that it must always be diagnosable (e.g. error buffer via OSD or blinking LED procedure, ComPair to read from the NVM). In case a failure identified by an error code automatically results in other error codes (cause and effect), only the error code of the MAIN failure is displayed.

Example: In case of a failure of the I2C bus (CAUSE), the error code for a “General I2C failure” and “Protection errors” is displayed. The error codes for the single devices (EFFECT) is not displayed. All error codes are stored in the same error buffer (TV’s NVM) except when the NVM itself is defective.

3.2 How to Read the Error Buffer

You can read the error buffer in 3 ways:

• On screen via the SAM/SDM/CSM (if you have a picture). Example: – ERROR: 0 0 0 0 0 : No errors detected – ERROR: 6 0 0 0 0 : Error code 6 is the last and only

detected error

– ERROR: 9 6 0 0 0 : Error code 6 was detected first and

error code 9 is the last detected (newest) error

• Via the blinking LED procedure (when you have no picture). See “The Blinking LED Procedure”.

•Via ComPair.

5-5 PL9.2SM

3.3 Error Codes

4 The Blinking LED Procedure

In case of non-intermittent faults, write down the errors present in the error buffer and clear the error buffer before you begin the repair. This ensures that old error codes are no longer present. If possible, check the entire contents of the error buffer. In some situations, an error code is only the result of another error and not the actual cause of the problem (for example, a fault in the protection detection circuitry can also lead to a protection).

4.1 Introduction

The software is capable of identifying different kinds of errors. Because it is possible that more than one error can occur over time, an error buffer is available, which is capable of storing the last five errors that occurred. This is useful if the OSD is not working properly.

Errors can also be displayed by the blinking LED procedure. The method is to repeatedly let the front LED pulse with as many pulses as the error code number, followed by a period of

1.5 seconds in which the LED

is “off”. Then this sequence is

repeated.

Example (1) : error code 4 will result in four times the sequence LED “on” for 0.25 seconds / LED “off” for 0.25 seconds. After this sequence, the LED will be “off” for 1.5 seconds. Any RC5 command terminates the sequence. Error code LED blinking is in red color.

Example (2) : the content of the error buffer is “12 9 6 0 0” After entering SDM, the following occurs:

• 1 long blink of 5 seconds to start the sequence,

• 12 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,

• 9 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,

• 6 short blinks followed by a pause of 1.5 seconds,

• 1 long blink of 1.5 seconds

to finish the sequence,

• The sequence starts again with 12 short blinks.

4.2 Displaying the Entire Error Buffer

Additionally, the entire error buffer is displayed when Service Mode “SDM” is entered. In case the TV set is in protection or Stand-by: The blinking LED procedure sequence (as in SDMmode in normal operation) must be triggered by the following RC sequence: “MUTE” “062500” “OK ”. In order to avoid confusion with RC5 signal reception blinking, this blinking procedure is terminated when a RC5 command is received.

# If IC/board available.

3.4 How to Clear the Error Buffer

The error code buffer is cleared in the following cases:

• By using the CLEAR command in the SAM menu:

• If the contents of the error buffer have not changed for 50

hours, the error buffer resets automatically.

Note:

If you exit SAM by disconnecting the mains from the

television set, the error buffer is not reset.

Notes:

• It is assumed that the components are mounted correctly with correct values and no bad solder joints.

•

any fault finding actions, check if the correct

Before options are set.

5.1 Software Protections

Most of the protections and errors use either the stand-by or the micro processor as detection device. Since in these cases, checking of observers, polling of ADCs, and filtering of input values are all heavily softwar

e based, these protections are referred to as software protections. There are several types of software related protections, solving a variety of fault conditions:

• Protections related to supplies:

Protections related to breakdown of the safety check

•

check of the 12V.

mechanism. E.g. since the protection detections are done by means of software, failing of the software will have to initiate a protection mode since safety cannot be guaranteed any more.

Remark on the Supply Errors The detection of a supply dip or playing of the set does not lead to

supply loss during the normal

a protection, but to a cold reboot of the set. If the supply is still missing after the reboot, the TV will go to protection.

Protections during Start-up During TV start-up, some voltages and IC observers are actively monitored to be able to optimize the start-up speed, and to assure good operation of all components. If these monitors do not respond in a defined way, this indicates a malfunction of the system and leads to a protection.

5.2 Hardware Protections

The only real hardware protection in an audio problem) the audio protecti

this chassis is (in case of on circuit that will trigger

the uP to switch “off” the TV.

Repair Tip

• It is also possible that you have an audio DC protection

because of an interruption in one or both speakers (the DC voltage that is still on the circuit cannot disappear through the speakers). Caution:

(dis)connecting the speaker wires during the ON state of the TV at high volume can damage the audio amplifier.

5.4 Load Default NVM Values

It is possible to download default values automatically into the NVM in case a blank NVM is placed or when the NVM first 20 address contents are “FF”. After the default values are downloaded, it is possible to start-up and to start aligning the TV set. To initiat e a forced default download the following action has to be performed:

1. Switch “off” the TV set with the mains cord disconnected from the wall outlet (it does not matter if this is from “Standby” or “Off” situation).

2. Short-circuit the SDM jumpers on the SSB (keep short circuited).

3. Press “P+” or “CH+” on t

he local keyboard (and keep it

pressed).

4. Reconnect the mains supply to the wall outlet.

5. Release the “P+” or “CH+” when the set is started up and has entered SDM.

When the downloading has completed successfully, the set should be into Stand-by, i.e. red LED on.

Alternative method: It is also possible to upload the default values to the NVM with ComPair in case the SW is changed, the NVM is replaced with a new (empty) one, or when the NVM content is corrupted. After replacing an EEPROM (or with a defective/no EEPROM), default settings should be used to enable the set to start-up and allow the Service Default Mode and Service Alignment Mode to be accessed.

5.5 Display option code

Caution: In case you have replaced the SSB, always check the display option code in SAM, even if you have picture. With a wrong display option code it is possible that you have picture, but that in certain conditions you have unwanted side-effects.

5.3 NVM Editor

In some cases, it can be convenient if one directly can change the NVM contents. This can be done with the “NVM Editor” in SAM mode. With this option, single bytes can be changed.

Caution:

• Do not change these, without understanding the function of each setting, because incorrect NVM settings may seriously hamper the correct functioning of the TV set!

• Always write down the existing NVM settings, before changing the settings. This will enable you to return to the original settings, if the new se

ttings turn out to be incorrect.

6 Alignments

Note: Figures below can deviate

slightly from the actual

General: The Service Default Mode (SDM) and Service Alignment Mode (SAM) are described in chapter 5. Menu navigation is done with the CURSOR UP, DOWN, LE FT or RIGHT keys of the remote control transmitter.

6.1 General Alignment Conditions

Perform all electrical adjustments under the following conditions:

• Power supply voltage (depends on region): – AP-NTSC: 120 V – AP-PAL-multi: 120 - 230 V – EU: 230 V

– LATAM-N TSC: 120 - 230 V – US: 120 V

or 230 V

/ 50 Hz (± 10%).

/ 60 Hz (

± 10%).

/ 50 Hz (± 10%).

/ 50 Hz (

• Connect the set to the mains via an isolation transformer with low internal resistance.

• Allow the set to warm up for approximately 15 minutes.

• Measure voltages and waveforms in relation to correct ground (e.g. measure audio signals in relation to AUDIO_GND). Caution:

It is not allowed to use heatsinks as ground.

• Test probe: Ri > 10 Mohm, Ci < 20 pF.

• Use an isolated trimmer/screwdriver to perform alignments.

6.2 Hardware Alignments

There are no hardware alignments foreseen for this chassis.

6.3 Software Alignments

With the software alignments of the Service Alignment Mode (SAM), the RGB alignments can be performed:

• white tone (warm, normal, cool)

• black level offset

6.3.1 RGB Alignment

Before alignment, in customer menu, choose “Movie” as predefined picture and sound setting (“Auto Mode” button on RC). Also in menu “TV menu” > “TV settings” > “Pict ure”, set

• “Active Control” to “Off”

• “Color Enhancement” to “Off”

• “Dynamic Contrast” to “Off ”

• “DNR” to “Off”.

White Tone Alignment:

• Activate SAM

• Select “RGB Align”

• Use a 75% white screen (Fluke 54200) or “Flat73” (Quantum Data 802BT) as input signal and set the following values: – All “R/G/B Gain” values initial to “128” (maximum). – All “R/G/B Offset” values (blacklevel) to “0”.

In case you have a color analyzer:

• Measure with a calibrated (phosphor- independent) color analyzer (e.g. Minolta CA-210) in the centre of the screen.

± 10%).

Consequently, the measurement needs to be done in a dark environment.

• Adjust the correct x,y coordinates (while holding one of the White point registers R, G or B on “128”) by means of decreasing the value of one or two other white points to the correct x,y coordinates (see table “White D alignment values”). Toler ance: dx: ± 0.004, dy: ± 0.004.

• Repeat this step for the other color Temperatures that need to be aligned.

• Select “Store” in the “RGB Align” menu to store the aligned values to the NVM.

6.4 Option Settings

6.4.1 Introduction

The microprocessor communicates with a large number of I ICs in the set. To ensure good communication and to make digital diagnosis possible, the microprocessor has to know which ICs to address. The presence/absence of these specific ICs (or functions) is made known by the option codes.

Notes:

• After changing the option(s), save them with the “Store” command.

• The new option setting becomes active after the TV is switched "off" and "on" again with the mains switch (the NVM is then read again).

6.4.2 How To Set Option Codes

When the NVM is replaced, all options except for the eighth option indicated as "***" in table 5 will require resetting. To be certain that the factory settings are reproduced exactly, you must set all numbers except for the eighth option. You can find the correct option numbers in table 5 “Option Codes OP1...OP10“ below.

How to Change Options Codes An option code (or “option byte

”) represents eight different options (bits). When you change these numbers directly, you can set all options very quickly. All options are controlled via ten option bytes (OP1... OPA). Activate SAM and select “Options”. Now you can select the option byte (OP#1.. OP#A) with the CURSOR UP/ DOWN keys, and enter the new 3 digit (decimal) value. For the correct factory default settings, see the next table “Option code overview“. The display code will need to be reset when replacing the SSB. To enter the display code, press 0 6 2 5 9 8 Menu followed by the three digit display code. The third and fourth digit of the serial number indicates which panel and display code is used. The option and display codes are also listed on a label inside the set.
