SAFETY CHECK-OUT

( US model only )

After correcting the original service problem, perfom the follow-

ing safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:

l. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-sol-

dered 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, through functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recom mend their replacement.

6. Check the line cords 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 temminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE TEST

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 0.5mA (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 usc 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 0.75V, so analog meters must have an accurate lowvoltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. NearIy 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 cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60-l00 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)

SELF DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

1. Summary of Self-Diagnosis Function

• This device includes a self-diagnosis function.

• In case of abnormalities, the Standby/Sleep lamp automatically blinks. It is possible to predict the abnormality location by the number of blinks. The Instruction Manual describes blinking of the Standby/Sleep lamp.

• If the symptom is not reproduced sometimes in case of a malfunction, there is recording of whether a malfunction was generated or not. Operate the remote command to confirm the matter on the screen and to predict the location of the abnormality.

2. Diagnosis Items and Prediction of Malfunction Location

• When a malfunction occurs the Standby/Sleep lamp only blinks for one of the following diagnosis items. In case of two or more malfunctions, the item which first occurred blinks. If the malfunctions occurred simultaneously, the item with the lower blink count blinks first.

• The screen display displays the results regarding all the diagnosis items listed below. The display “ 0 ” means that no malfunctions occurred.

4. Self-diagnosis screen displays

• In cases of malfunctions where it is not possible to determine the symptom such as when the power goes off occasionally or when the screen disappears occasionally, there is a screen display on whether the malfunction occurred or not in the past (and whether the detection circuit operated or not) in order to allow confirmation.

• Quickly press the remote command button in the following order from the standby state.

• The results display is not automatically cleared. In case of repairs and after repairs, check the self-diagnosis screen and be sure to return the results display to “ 0 ”.

• If the results display is not returned to “ 0 ” it will not be possible to judge a new malfunction after completing repairs.

• When returning the results display to “ 0 ” (clear), press the remote command buttons in the following order when the diagnosis screen is displayed.

• Be aware that, when carrying this out in the speed mode, all the other electrical adjustment data will be rewritten.

This section will teach you the basic skills needed to operate your new projection TV. It will show you how to operate special functions of the remote control.

3 Using Your New Projection TV.

This section will show you how to begin using your new projection TV. It will show you how to use the AUTO SET UP feature, and how to use your remote control's features.

4 Adjusting Your Set Up (menus).

This section will teach you how to access on-screen menus and adjust your

projection TV's settings.

Instructions in this manual are written for the remote control. Similar controls may be found on the projection TV console.

Installing and Connecting the Projection TV

Carrying your projection TV

Carrying the projection TV requires three or more people. The projection TV has been equipped with casters for easy movement. Please move your projection TV using the casters.

Mounting the Supplied Rear Speakers

For enhanced surround effect, connect the supplied rear speakers to your projection TV.

Connecting the rear speakers

Using the supplied speaker cord, connect REAR SPEAKER OUT L on your projection TV to the speaker terminal on one rear speaker, and connect REAR SPEAKER OUT R to the terminal on the other one.

(Rear of projection TV)

Installation

For optimum surround effect, mount the rear speakers in the following places (as shown in the illustration):

• on a wall, a little higher or lower than the listener’s ears.

• on a table, a little lower than the listener’s ears.

• on a corner of wall and ceiling.

Note:

• For S-Link and CONTROL S connections, you can use the combined S-Link/ CONTROL S cable provided with some Sony video equipment, or you can purchase a separate S-Link/CONTROL S cable (RK-G69HG).

Making Connections

For the best picture quality, a cable TV system or outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting directly to cable or an antenna

The connection you choose will depend on the cable found in your home. Newer homes will be equipped with standard coaxial cable (see

A); older homes will probably have 300 -

ohm twin lead cable (see homes may contain both (see

B); still other
