Attention: This service manual is only for service personnel to take reference with. Before
servicing please read the following points carefully.
Safety instructions
1. Instructions
Be sure to switch off the power supply before replacing or welding any components or
inserting/plugging in connection wire Anti static measures to be taken (throughout the entire
production process!):
a) Do not touch here and there by hand at will;
b) Be sure to use anti static electric iron;
c) It’s a must for the welder to wear anti static gloves.
Please refer to the detailed list before replacing components that have special safety requirements.
Do not change the specs and type at will.
2. Points for attention in servicing of LCD
2.1 Screens are different from one model to another and therefore not interchangeable. Be sure to
use the screen of the original model for replacement.
2.2 The operation voltage of LCD screen is 700-825V. Be sure to take proper measures in
protecting yourself and the machine when testing the system in the course of normal operation or
right after the power is switched off. Please do not touch the circuit or the metal part of the module
that is in operation mode. Relevant operation is possible only one minute after the power is
switched off.
2.3 Do not use any adapter that is not identical with the TV set. Otherwise it will cause fire or
damage to the set.
2.4 Never operate the set or do any installation work in bad environment such as wet bathroom,
laundry, kitchen, or nearby fire source, heating equipment and devices or exposure to sunlight etc.
Otherwise bad effect will result.
2.5 If any foreign substance such as water, liquid, metal slices or other matters happens to fall into
the module, be sure to cut the power off immediately and do not move anything on the module lest it
should cause fire or electric shock due to contact with the high voltage or short circuit.
2.6 Should there be smoke, abnormal smell or sound from the module, please shut the power off at
once. Likewise, if the screen is not working after the power is on or in the course of operation, the
power must be cut off immediately and no more operation is allowed under the same condition.
2.7 Do not pull out or plug in the connection wire when the module is in operation or just after the
power is off because in this case relatively high voltage still remains in the capacitor of the driving
circuit. Please wait at least one minute before the pulling out or plugging in the connection wire.
2.8 When operating or installing LCD please don’t subject the LCD components to bending, twisting
or extrusion, collision lest mishap should result.
2.9 As most of the circuitry in LCD TV set is composed of CMOS integrated circuits, it’s necessary
to pay attention to anti statics. Before servicing LCD TV make sure to take anti static measure and
ensure full grounding for all the parts that have to be grounded.
2.10 There are lots of connection wires between parts behind the LCD screen. When servicing or
moving the set please take care not to touch or scratch them. Once they are damaged the screen
1
would be unable to work and no way to get it repaired.
2.11 Special care must be taken in transporting or handling it. Exquisite shock vibration may lead to
breakage of screen glass or damage to driving circuit. Therefore it must be packed in a strong case
before the transportation or handling.
2.12 For the storage make sure to put it in a place where the environment can be controlled so as to
prevent the temperature and humidity from exceeding the limits as specified in the manual. For
prolonged storage, it is necessary to house it in an anti-moisture bag and put them altogether in one
place. The ambient conditions are tabulated as follows:
Temperature Scope for operation 0 ~ +50 oC
Scope for storage -20 ~ +60 oC
Humidity Scope for operation 20% ~ 85%
Scope for storage 10% ~ 90%
2.13 Display of a fixed picture for a long time may result in appearance of picture residue on the
screen, as commonly called “ghost shadow”. The extent of the residual picture varies with the
maker of LCD screen. This phenomenon doesn’t represent failure. This “ghost shadow” may remain
in the picture for a period of time (several minutes). But when operating it please avoid displaying
still picture in high brightness for a long time.
3. Points for attention during installation
3.1 The front panel of LCD screen is of glass. When installing it please make sure to put it in place.
3.2 For service or installation it’s necessary to use specified screw lest it should damage the screen.
3.3 Be sure to take anti dust measures. Any foreign substance that happens to fall down between
the screen and the glass will affect the receiving and viewing effect
3.4 When dismantling or mounting the protective partition plate that is used for anti vibration and
insulation please take care to keep it in intactness so as to avoid hidden trouble.
3.5 Be sure to protect the cabinet from damage or scratch during service, dismantling or mounting.

Method of software upgr adi ng
Steps of software upgrading are as follows:
1. Select a serial connection wire and a VGA connection wire and then connect them by means of a
patch panel;
2. Use a serial wire to connect the PC to the patch panel and set TV set to off state;

Open the software upgrade file holder and double click
FlashUpgraderNT (use under window 2000/XP/NT)
FlashUpgrader (use under window 98),
The following interfaces will show up after running the program:
Based on the computer features, set up the serial port (COM Port). Select corresponding serial port
(if it’s unable to FLASH WRITE, change to another port). Baud is selected to be 115200. Then
select Reset Target After Download. Click FLASH pushbutton, it’s ready to run. For other settings,
please refer to the Fig. Above (already defaulted by the system, normally no need to change).
Switch on TV set the FLASH write program begins to run;
After FLASH write is over, push button “cancel” will become flash. Then shut the main power supply
8
and it’s OK just switch it on again.
Note: Do not shut the power off or turn the TV set on during t he FLASH write. Otherwise it
may lead to no way for flash to rewrite.
Working principle analysis
Multi-media liquid crystal TV broadcast and receiving set adopts liquid crystal display screen, which
is provided with NTSC color system receiving function in addition to AV input, S-VHS input, high
definition signal port for component YPrPb/YcbCr, PC VGA port, earphone output and other signal
ports. For power supply an externally connected power adaptor is provided.
The circuitry of LC20H8 is composed of RF module board, video signal board, digital signal picture
processor and AC-DC transformer, and DC-DC circuit board.
The working process is as follows. The radio frequency signal undergoes an integrated tuner
TUNER1 before a color full video signal is generated. This video signal then enters analog board
decoder IC N303 VCT3833 Pin19 where it is processed and it’s output as analog signals R, G, B
through Pin42, PIN43, and PIN44. Audio frequency signal is processed with sound in IC N401
MSP3420G and then output through MSP3420G Pin28, Pin27 to SRS for surround sound
processing in IC N403 M62494E. Finally it is subject to power amplification in IC N404 TDA1517
before it is output to speaker.
VGA signal/high definition signal is input to personal computer through the main board. The signal
selected by Y/Pb/Pr through 5 way 1/2 switches IC(N1 BA7657F)is subject to reselection together
with signal TVRAIN, TVGAIN, TVBAIN through 5 way 1/2 switches IC(N5 BA7657F). Finally signals
R, G, B are selected and sent to the main processing chip IC N19 PW1306.
IC N19 PW1306 is a built-in X86 CPU of the main processing IC, externally connected by 8M Flash
(N20) memory to control the whole system. The input signal of V-port and G-port is subject to
internal arithmetic processing and then output as R, G, B signals with electric level of 24 bit TTL to
sockets JP3 and JP4, where through connection wires the signals are sent to the port of LG liquid
crystal screen and for the realization of picture reproduction.
