The identification of errors within the AE-5A chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the event of
one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a continuous flashing LED) and
then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be
displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted) See table 1., non fatal errors are reported using this method.

Error Detection Monitor
Device acknowledge is used to check IIC errors. Device acknowledge is checked by sending an IIC start sequence during CRT power on. Each
device is checked three times, if there is no acknowledge after each attempt, it will be regarded as an error.
There are three steps to check for errors.
1.IIC line 0
If all devices except the NVM have errors, IIC line 0 error is displayed.
2.Board check
If all devices mounted on one board have errors, board error is displayed.
3.Each device check
If IIC line error and board error are not detected then the device with the error is displayed.
The detected errors can be displayed as follows :
1.Error Monitor Menu.

How to handle the Anode-Cap
1.To prevent damaging the surface of the anode-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 called a shatter hook terminal is fitted inside the
rubber cap.
4.Do not turn the rubber foot over excessively, this may cause damage
if the shatter hook sticks out.

For safety reasons, on no account should the plates be
removed and not refitted after servicing.
£
Because the plates differ in size it is important that the correct plates are refitted in their original
location.
Please note that the plates need to be rotated 180 degrees from their cut position to allow the

SECTION 3SET-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 .................................. normal
Brightness .................................. normal
3-1. Beam Landing
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 TV set’s power and degauss with a degausser.
(1) Adjustment of Correction Magnet for Y-Splitting Axis.
1.Input a crosshatch signal from the pattern generator.
2.Set the Picture control to minimum and confirm that the
Brightness control is set to normal.
3.Position the neck assembly as indicated in Fig.3-3.
4.Loosen the deflection yoke fixing screw .
5.Move the deflection yoke as far forward as is possible.
6.Adjust the upper and lower pin symmetrically by opening or
closing the Y-splitting axis correction magnets located on the neck
assembly. [See Fig 3-1 and Fig 3-2]
7.Return the deflection yoke to its original position and re-tighten its
fixing screw.
Fig.3-1
Y-splitting axis correction magnet
Carry out the adjustments in the following order :
High voltages are present on the Deflection yoke terminals - take care
when handling the Deflection yoke whilst carrying out adjustments.
(2) Landing
Note : Before carrying out the following adjustments adjust the
magnets as indicated below [See Fig.3-4].
1. Input a crosshatch signal from the signal generator.
2. Rough-adjust the focus and horizontal convergence.
3. Switch from the crosshatch pattern to an all-red pattern.
4. Move the deflection yoke backwards and adjust with the purity
magnet so that the red is at the centre and it aligns
symmetrically [See Fig.3-5].
5. Move the deflection yoke forward to the point where the entire
screen just becomes red [Mark its position].
6. Move the deflection yoke further forward until the screen just
changes colour at the edges. [Mark its position]
7. Position the deflection yoke between the two marks indicated
above.
8. Input a crosshatch pattern from the pattern generator and rotate the
deflection yoke so that the horizontal lines are parallel with the top
and bottom of the screen.
9. When the position of the deflection yoke has been determined,
fasten it with its fixing screw.
10. Switch the pattern generator to green then blue and confirm the
purity.
11. If the beam does not land correctly in all the corners of the screen,
use disk magnets to correct it. [Confirm the corner landing for
green and blue]
