SELF DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

The units in this manual contain a self-diagnostic function. If an error occurs, the STANBY/TIMER lamp will automatically begin to flash. The number of times the lamp flashes translates to a probable source of the problem. A definition of the STANBY/ TIMER lamp flash indicators is listed in the instruction manual for the user’s knowledge and reference. If an error symptom cannot be reproduced, the remote commander can be used to review the failure occurrence data stored in memory to reveal past problems and how often these problems occur.

1. DIAGNOSTIC TEST INDICATORS

When an errors occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER lamp will flash a set number of times to indicate the possible cause of the problem. If there is more than one error, the lamp will identify the first of the problem areas.

Result for all of the following diagnostic items are displayed on screen. No error has occured if the screen displays a “0”.

• Power line is shorted or power supply is stopped.

• No raster is generated.

• CRT cathode current detection reference pulse output is small.

• Micro reset

Note 1: If a + B overcurrent is detected, stoppage of the vertical deflection is detected simultaneously.

The symptom that is diagnosed first by the microcontroller is displayed on the screen.

Turn off the power switch on the TV main unit or unplug the power cord from the outlet to stop the STANDBY/TIMER lamp from flashing.

4. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN DISPLAY

For errors with symptoms such as “power sometimes shuts off” or “screen sometimes goes out” that cannot be confirmed, it is possible to bring up past occurances of failure for confirmation on the screen:

[To Bring Up Screen Test]

In standby mode, press buttons on the remote commander sequentially in rapid succession as shown below:

[Screendisplay] / channel [5] / Sound volume [-] / Power ON

Note that this differs from entering the service mode (mode volume [+]).

5. HANDLINGOF SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN DISPLAY

Since the diagnostic results displayed on the screen are not automatically cleared, always check the self-diagnostic screen during repairs. When you have completed the repairs, clear the result display to “0”.

Unless the result display is cleared to “0”, the self-diagnostic function will not be able to detect subsequent faults after completion of the repairs.

[Clearing the result display]

To clear the result display to “0”, press buttons on the remote commander sequentially as shown below when the diagnostic screen is being displayed.

CAUTION

• Do not connect the power cord until you have completed making all other connections; otherwise a minimum leakage current might flow through the antenna and other terminals to ground.

• To avoid battery leakage and damage to the remote, remove the batteries from the remote if you are not going to use it for several days. If any liquid that leaks from the batteries touches you, immediately wash it away with water.

Using Your New TV

Notes

• If you connect a monaural VCR, connect the yellow plug to

(the yellow

jack) and the black plug to

-L (MONO) (the white jack).

• If you connect a VCR to the (antenna) terminal, preset the signal output from the VCR to the program number 0 on the TV.

• If both

(S video input) and t 1 (video input) at the rear of your TV

are input at the same time, the

(S video input) is automatically

selected. To view the video input to t 1 (video input), disconnect the S video cable.

• Do not connect video equipment to the t 3 (video input) jacks at the front and the rear of your TV at the same time; otherwise the picture will not be displayed properly on the screen.

• When no signal is input from the connected video equipment, the TV screen becomes blue.

Step 2

Insert the batteries into the remote

Note

• Do not use old batteries nor use different types of batteries together.

Step 3

Preset the channels automatically

Tips

• If you want to stop the automatic channel presetting, press MENU.

• If your TV has preset an unwanted channel or cannot preset a particular

channel, then preset your TV manually (see page 25).

Note

• During automatic channel presetting, your TV screen will indicate

“B/G”,

“I”, “D/K” or “M” for the TV system (

“TV SYS”).
