Note:
Figures below can deviate slightly from the actual
situation, due to the different set executions.
General:
The Service Default Mode (SDM) and Service
Alignment Mode (SAM) are described in chapter 5. Menu
navigation is done with the CURSOR UP, DOWN, LEFT or
RIGHT keys of the remote control transmitter.
8.1
General Alignment Conditions
Perform all electrical adjustments under the following
conditions:
•
Power supply voltage (depends on region):
–
AP-NTSC: 120 V
AC
or 230 V
AC
/ 50 Hz (
±
10%).
–
AP-PAL-multi: 120 - 230 V
AC
/ 50 Hz (
±
10%).
–
EU: 230 V
AC
/ 50 Hz (
±
10%).
–
LATAM-NTSC: 120 - 230 V
AC
/ 50 Hz (
±
10%).
–
US: 120 V
AC
/ 60 Hz (
±
10%).
•
Connect the set to the mains via an isolation transformer
with low internal resistance.
•
Allow the set to warm up for approximately 15 minutes.
•
Measure voltages and waveforms in relation to correct
ground (e.g. measure audio signals in relation to
AUDIO_GND).
Caution:
It is not allowed to use heatsinks as ground.
•
Test probe: Ri > 10 Mohm, Ci < 20 pF.
•
Use an isolated trimmer/screwdriver to perform
alignments.
8.2
Hardware Alignments
There are no hardware alignments foreseen for this chassis,
but below find an overview of the most important DC voltages
on the SSB. These can be used for checking proper functioning
of the DC/DC converters.
8.3
Software Alignments
With the software alignments of the Service Alignment Mode
(SAM) the Tuner and RGB settings can be aligned.
To store the data: Use the RC button “Menu” to switch to the
main menu and next, switch to “Stand-by” mode.
8.3.1
Tuner Adjustment (RF AGC Take Over Point)
Purpose:
To keep the tuner output signal constant as the input
signal amplitude varies.
The LC7.xx chassis comes with two tuner types: the UV1318S
for the analogue sets (LC7.1x) and the TD1316AF for the
hybrid sets (LC7.2x).
For the digital tuner TD1316AF, no alignment is necessary, as
the AGC alignment is done automatically (standard value:
“15”), even during analogue reception.
The analogue tuner UV1318S can also use the default value of
“15”, however in case of problems use the following method
(use multimeter and RF generator):
•
Apply a vision IF carrier of 38.9 MHz (105 dBuV = 178
mVrms) to test point F111 (input via 50 ohm coaxial cable
terminated with an RC network of series 10nF with 120
ohm to ground).
•
Measure voltage on pin 1 of the tuner.
•
Adjust AGC (via SAM menu: TUNER -> AGC), until voltage
on pin 1 is 3.3 +0.5/-1.0 V.
•
Store settings and exit SAM.
8.3.2
RGB Alignment
Before alignment, choose “TV MENU” -> “Picture” and set:
•
“Brightness” to “50”.
•
“Colour” to “50”.
•
“Contrast” to “100”.
White Tone Alignment:
•
Activate SAM.
•
Select “RGB Align.” -> “White Tone” and choose a colour
temperature.
•
Use a 100% white screen as input signal and set the
following values:
–
All “White point” values initial to “256”.
–
All “BlackL Offset” values to “0”.
In case you have a colour analyser:
•
Measure with a calibrated (phosphor- independent) colour
analyser (e.g. Minolta CA-210) in the centre of the screen.
Consequently, the measurement needs to be done in a
dark environment.
•
Adjust the correct x,y coordinates (while holding one of the
White point registers R, G or B on “256”) by means of
decreasing the value of one or two other white points to the
correct x,y coordinates (see table “White D alignment
values”). Tolerance: dx:
±
0.004, dy:
±
0.004.
•
Repeat this step for the other colour Temperatures that
need to be aligned.
•
When finished return to the SAM root menu and press
STANDBY on the RC to store the aligned values to the
NVM.
Table 8-1 White D alignment values
If you do
not
have a colour analyser, you can use the default
values. This is the next best solution. The default values are
average values coming from production (statistics).
•
Set the RED, GREEN and BLUE default values per
temperature according to the values in the “Tint settings”
table.
