MCM 21T1
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
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 cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend
the replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7. Check the B+ and HV to see if they are specified values.
Make sure your instruments are accurate; be suspicious of
your HV meter if sets always have low HV.
8. Check the antenna terminals, 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 0.5 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 lowvoltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are
examples of a passive VOMs that are suitable. Nearly all
battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC
range are suitable. (See Fig. A)
WARNING!!
NEVER TURN ON THE POWER IN A CONDITION IN
WHICH THE DEGAUSS COIL HAS BEEN REMOVED.
SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY SHADING AND MARK
¡ ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS, EXPLODED
VIEWS AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL FOR
SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS
WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY. CIRCUIT ADJUSTMENTS THAT ARE CRITICAL FOR SAFE OPERATION
ARE IDENTIFIED IN THIS MANUAL. FOLLOW THESE
PROCEDURES WHENEVER CRITICAL COMPONENTS
ARE REPLACED OR IMPROPER OPERATION IS SUSPECTED.

CAUTION ON DAS (ECS) CONNECTOR
• The connector for DAS (ECS) adjustment is provided inside
the cover shown below. Be careful with an electrical shock
when connecting the connector with the power supplied. Also,
return the removed cover to the home position.

POWER SAVING FUNCTION
This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA and
Energy Star, as well as the more stringent NUTEK .
If the monitor is connected to a computer or video graphics board
that is VESA DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling)
compliant, the monitor will automatically reduce power consumption in three stages as shown below.
You can set the delay time before the monitor enters the power
saving mode using the OSD. Set the time according to “Setting
the power saving delay time”.

DIAGNOSIS
Note
If no video signal is input to the monitor, the “NO INPUT SIGNAL” message appears. After the delay time has passed, the
power saving function automatically puts the monitor into the active-off mode and the indicator lights up orange. Once the horizontal and vertical sync signals are detected, the monitor automatically resumes its normal operation mode.
