SAFETY CHECK-OUT

(US Model only)

After correcting the original service problem, perform the

following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes
and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched”
or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and
mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain
that you have replaced all the insulators.

4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors,
that were installed during a previous repair Point them out to the
customer and recommend their replacement.

5. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend
their replacement.

6. Check the line cord for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.

7. Check the condition of the monopole antenna (if any).
Make sure the end is not broken off, and has the plastic cap on
it. Point out the danger of impalement on a broken antenna to the
customer, and recommend the antenna’s replacement.

8. Check the B+ and HV to see they are at the values specified.
Make sure your instruments are accurate; be suspicious of your
HV meter if sets always have low HV.

9. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs,
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.
Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE

The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground
and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having
a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.

1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA

WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these

instruments.

2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245

digital multimeter is suitable for this job.

3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a

VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication

is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage

scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of

a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated

digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See

Fig. A)

HOW TO FIND A GOOD EARTH GROUND

A cold-water pipe is guaranteed earth ground; the cover-plate
retaining screw on most AC outlet boxes is also at earth ground. If
the retaining screw is to be used as your earth-ground, verify that it
is at ground by measuring the resistance between it and a coldwater
pipe with an ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms. If a cold­water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-100 watts trouble light (not
a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the retaining
screw. Try both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side of the line,
the lamp should light at normal brilliance if the screw is at ground
potential. (See Fig. B)

Chapter 1 Overview

Precaution

On safety

•Operate the unit only with a power source as
specified in “Specifications” section.

•The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power
consumption, etc., is located at the rear.

•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.

•Do not drop or place heavy objects on the power
cord. If the power cord is damaged, turn off the
power immediately. It is dangerous to use the unit
with a damaged power cord.

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be
used for several days or more.

•Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet by
grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord.

•The socket-outlet shall be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible.

On installation

•Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat
build-up.
Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.)
or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block
the ventilation holes.

•Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources
such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration
or shock.

On cleaning

To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically clean
it with a mild detergent solution. Never use strong
solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive
cleansers since they will damage the cabinet. As a
safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.

On repacking

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.
They make an ideal container which to transport the
unit. When shipping the unit to another location,
repack it as illustrated on the carton.

If you have any questions about this unit, contact your
authorized Sony dealer.

On magnetism

• Do not place the unit near any objects or pieces of
equipment which generate magnetism, such as
magnets, speakers, electric clocks, toys using
magnets, health appliances, etc. Magnetism will
cause picture bounce, oscillations or picture
discoloration.

• Also, the picture may become fuzzy or the colors
may not reproduce correctly due to earth magnetism.
This depends on direction that the unit is installed.
This is not equipment failure. In such a case, simply
degauss the unit.

On the CRT

• Dust accumulates on the CRT easily. Clean the CRT
when necessary with a soft cloth.
The surface of the CRT is easily scratched; therefore,
do not rub or touch the surface of the CRT
unnecessarily since this may result in a scratched
picture tube.

• If you touch the surface of the CRT, you may feel a
weak electrical shock. This is simply static electricity
that is generated on the surface of the CRT. It will not
affect the human body.

About menu numbers

For purposes of explanation in this manual, each menu
is preceded by menu numbers. The alphabet
determines the classification of Menus on the Menu
list (Main Menu), and the numbers determine the level
and the order. These menu numbers are not shown on
the screen.

The CONTROL PRESET ADJ menu
The first menu in Level 1
The third menu in Level 2
The fifth menu in Level 3
The fourth menu in Level 4

e.g. A1354

Only the menus which require explanation are
preceded by menu numbers. Thus, the menu number is
counted without menus which do not require
explanation.

ADDRESS Menu

In addition to the menus listed in the table, the
ADDRESS menu is provided. This ADDRESS menu
is used to select the monitor or the monitor group, so
that when several monitors are connected together via
serial remote ports, the control panel can select which
monitor to control.
To display or exit the ADDRESS menu, press the
ADDRESS button. The method of choosing menu
items and changing settings is the same as with the
other menus.

For information about the ADDRESS menu, see “Selecting
the Monitor to Control —ADDRESS Menu” on page 49.

Assigning the Remote Control Functions
(SET UP 2) — REMOTE Menu

The remote control functions are set with the
REMOTE menu. With this monitor, both serial remote
control (REMOTE 1) and parallel remote control
(REMOTE 2) are possible. It is possible to
simultaneously use the REMOTE 1, and REMOTE 2
provided with BKM-10R/11R, the integrated control
unit monitors HDM-14E5U, BVM-14E5U/14E5E/
14F5U/14F5E/14G5U/14G5E/14G5A, for control, but
commands from REMOTE 2 have priority. Therefore,
it is impossible for the control panel or REMOTE 1 to
change items set by REMOTE 2.
There is no priority order between commands from
REMOTE 1 and the BKM-10R/11R control panel; it is
possible to set APERTURE to ON from REMOTE 1
and then set it to OFF with a control panel operation.

About monitor address and group numbers

The monitor control units BKM-10R/11R or control
unit monitors HDM-14E5U, BVM-14E5U/14E5E/
14F5U/14F5E/14G5U/14G5E/14G5A are able to
control up to 32 monitors connected via serial remote
connector (using the REMOTE 1 connector). By
giving each monitor a monitor address and group
number, it is possible to control just a specific monitor
or monitor group.
With the REMOTE menu, each monitor can be set
with a monitor address and group number, between 1
and 99.
The ADDRESS menu is used to select a particular
monitor or group by entering a monitor number or
group number.

For information about the ADDRESS menu, see “Selecting
the Monitor to Control —ADDRESS Menu” on page 49.
The address number must differ from one monitor to
another. If two or more monitors have the same address
number, an operation error occurs.
