WARNING (KV-29FX20U only)

The flexible mai ns lead is supplied connect e d to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 5 AMP capacity. Should the fuse need t o be replaced, use a 5 AMP FUSE approved by ASTA to BS 1362, ie one that c arries the

ASA

mark. IF THE PLUG SUPPLIED WITH THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE OUTLET SOCKETS IN YOUR HOME, IT SHOULD BE CUT OFF AND AN APPROPRIATE PLUG FITTED. THE PLUG SEVERED FROM THE MAINS LEAD MUST BE DESTROYED AS A PLUG WITH BARED WIRES IS DANGEROUS IF ENGAGE D IN A LIVE OUTLET SOCKET. When an alte rnative type of plug is used it sho u ld be fitted with a 5 AMP FUSE, otherwise the circuit should be protected by a 5 AMP FUSE at the distribution board.

How to replace the fuse. Open the fuse compartment with a screwdriver blade and replace the fuse.

• REMOVAL OF ANODE-CAP

Note : Short circuit the anode of t he picture tube and the anode cap to the metal chassis, CRT shield or carbon paint on th e CRT, after removing the anode.

• HOW TO HANDLE THE ANODE-CAP

1 To prevent damaging the surface of the a node -cap do not use sharp materials. 2 Do not apply too great a pressure on the rubber, as this may cause damage to the

anode connector.

3 A metal fitting ca lled a shatter hook terminal is fitted inside the rub ber cap.

Do not turn the rubber foot over excessively this may cause damage if the shatter hook sticks out.

REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF THE MAIN-BRACKET BOTTOM PLATES.

For safety reasons, on no account should the plates be

removed and not refitted after servicing.

(1) REMOVING THE PLATES

In the event of servicing being required to the solder side of the A Board printed wiring board, the bottom plates fitted to the main chassis bracket r equ ire to be removed. This is performed by cutting the gates with a sharp wire cutter at the locations shown and indicated by arrows.

Note :There are 2 plates fitted to the main bracket and secured by 4 gates.

Only remove the necessary plate to gain access to the printed wiring board.

(2) REFITTING THE PLATES

Because the plates differ in size it is important th at the corr ect pla tes are ref it ted in their original location.

Please note that the plates need to be rotated 180 degrees from the cut position to allow the tabs to be fitted in the catch positions.

SET-UP ADJUSTMENTS

• When complete readjustment is necessary or a new picture tube is installed, carry out the following adjustments.

• Unless there are specific instructions to the contrary, carry out these adjustments with the rated power supply.

• Unless there are specific instructions to the contrary, set the controls and switches to the following settings :

Contrast ............... 80% [or remote control normal]

Brightness ............... 50%

Preparation:

1. In order to reduce the influence of geomagnetism on the set’s picture tube, face it in an easterly or westerly direction.

2. Switch on the set’s power and degauss with the degausser.

3-1. BEAM LANDING

1. Input an all white signal from the pattern generator. Set the Contrast and Brightness to normal.

2. Set the pattern generator r as ter signal to Red.

3. Move the deflection yoke forward and adjust with the purity control so that the Red is at the centre and the Blue and Green take up equally sized areas on each side of the screen. [See Fig.3-1 - 3-3].

4. Move the deflection yoke forw ard and adjust so that the entire screen becomes Red. [See Fig.3 -1]

5. Switch the raster signal to Blue, then to Green and verify the condition.

6. When the pos ition of the deflection yoke has been determ ined, fasten the deflection yoke with the screws.

7. If the beam does not land cor r ectly in all the corners, use a magnet to correct it. [See Fig.3-4]

Carry out the following adjustments in this order : 3-1. Beam Landing 3-2. Convergence 3-3. Focus 3-4. White Balance

Note : Test equipment required

1. Color bar/pattern generator.

2. Degausser.

3. Oscilloscope.

4. Digital multimeter.

5. DC Power supply.

Preparation:

• Before starting this adjustment, adjust the focus, horizontal size and vertical size.

• Minimize the Brightness setting.

• Input a dot pattern from the pattern generator.

(1) Horizontal and vertical static convergence

• Tilt the V.STAT magnet and adjust the static convergence by opening or clo s ing the V.STAT m a gnet.

4. If the V.STAT magnet is moved in the direction of the a and b arrows, the Red, Green and Blue points move as indicated below.

1. [Moving horizontally], adjust the H.STAT control so that the Red, Green and Blue points are o n t op of each other at the centre of the screen.

2. [Moving vertically], adjust the V.STAT magnet so that the Red, Green and Blue points are o n t op of each other at the centre of the screen.

3. If the H.STAT variable resistor is unable to bring the Red, Green and Blue points together at the centre of the screen, adjust the horizontal convergence with the H.STAT variable resistor and the V.STAT magnet in the manner indicated belo w. [In this case, the H.STAT variable resistor and the V.STAT magnet influence each other].

Tilt Direction

• Operation of the BMC (Hexapole) magnet.

• The respective dot position resulting from moving each magnet interact, so be sure to perform adjustment whilst tracking. Use the H.STAT VR to adjust the Red, Green and Blue dots so that they coincide at the centre of the screen (by moving the dots in the horizontal direction).

(2) Dynamic convergence adjustment.

Preparation:

• Before starting this adjustment, adjust the horizontal and vertical static convergence.

1. Remove the deflection yoke spacer.

2. Tilt the deflection yoke as indicated in the figure below and optimize the convergence.

3. Re-install the deflection yoke spacer.

Note : This adjustment will affect the geometry of the

display, therefore adjust to obtain the optimum setting.
