Safety Notes
IMPORTANT SERVICE NOTES
Maintenance and repair of this receiver should
be carried out by qualified service personnel
only.
SERVICING OF HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM
AND PICTURE TUBE
When servicing the high voltage system, remove
static charge from it by connecting a 10 k ohm
resistor in series with an insulated wire (such as
a test probe) between picture tube ground tag
and high voltage lead (AC line cord should be
disconnected from AC outlet).
1.Picture tube in this receiver employs integral
implosion protection.
2.Replace with tube of the same type number
for continued safety.
3.Do not lift picture tube by the neck.
4.Handle the picture tube only when wearing
shatterproof goggles and after discharging the
high voltage completely.
X-RAY
This receiver is designed so that any X-Ray
radiation is kept to an absolute minimum. Since
certain malfunctions or servicing may produce
potentially hazardous radiation with prolonged
exposure at close range, the following precautions should be observed.
1.When repairing the circuit, be sure not to
increase the high voltage to more than 30.0
kV (1100uA Beam currrent) for the set.
2.To keep the set operating normally, be sure to
maintain the high voltage at 24.5kV Plus
Minus 1.5kV (at a beam current of 1100uA).
The set has been factory adjusted to the
above mentioned high voltage. If there is a
possibility that the high voltage fluctuates as
result of the repairs, never forget to check for
such high voltage after the work.
3. Do not substitute a picture tube with unauthorized types or brands which may cause
excess X-Ray radiation.
BEFORE RETURNING THE RECEIVER
In addition to the checks necessary as a result
of a repair having been carried out, the following
additional safety checks should also be made
before returning the unit to the user.
1.Inspect all lead insulation to make certain that
leads are not pinched or that hardware is not
lodged between the chassis and other metal
parts in the receiver.
2.Inspect all protective devices such as nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpapers,
cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment
covers or shields: isolation resistor-capacity
networks, mechanical insulators, etc.
3.Apply test voltage of 3000 volts between live
parts and accessible metal parts for 3
seconds.
SERVICE MODE FUNCTION
This mode function is provided to assist with the
settings of those adjustments that may vary
from one Picture Tube to another, or between
models.
In order to use the Service Mode
1. Press main switch to OFF.
2. Connect Test Pattern signal to antenna
terminal.
3. Press DOWN and CH UP buttons and main
switch to ON simultaneously.
4. —SERV—will appear on screen. Service
mode is now entered.
5. Select adjustment using buttons UP CH DOWN.
To exit service mode, press main switch to
OFF or press MENU button on R/C.
6. For “a” thru j selections.
Adjustment to a selection can be made by
pressing buttons UP * DOWN ).
A colour bar is displayed on the OSD to indicate
the adjustment position, together with hexadecimal numbers (Not for GII adjustment).
For “k” Selection.
NVM storage location settings variants.
In order to have access to the desired storage
location, buttons UP * DOWN should be
pressed, as required, to obtain a higher or lower
location, respectively. Bear in mind that, for
storage location indication a hexadecimal
numerical system is used, instead of a decimal
system.
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 10, 11
..........19, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F, 20, 21, 99,
9A, 9B, 9C, 9D, 9E, 9F, A0, A1, ...........,
B0..........., C0..........., D0..........., E0..........., F0,
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9, FA, FB, FC,
FD, FE, FF.
From the last location FF to the first 00 can be
reached by increasing and from first to last by
decreasing. Once the storage location to be
varied has been selected, its value can be
modified by the bits that form part of the storage
location numerical buttons, numbers 0 to 7,
respectively. This switches its binary number
from and between 0 and 1 each time one of the
buttons is pressed.
0=20 1, 1 W=21=2, 2=22 4, .....
(See Tables on next page).
