Service Mode Adjustment Notes
Because of this TV’s complexity, the following precautions should be noted
while making service adjustments for convergence, video level, size, and
white balance or positioning:
1. The numerous service mode registers are usually grouped by ICs for
easy access. Use the remote’s #2 and #5 button to change IC groups.
Then you can move from register to register with the #1 and #4 but-
tons.
2. Each register that controls the picture’s size, deflection and position
(on pages 45-47 of the service manual) has seven sets of adjustment
data, one for each of the seven picture size modes. These settings do
not interact. Enter the service mode, adjust the TV during that picture
size, and store it.
Seven Picture Size Modes
NTSC or SD DTV HDTV
1. Normal 4:3
aspect ratio
4. Wide Zoom 6. HDTV Full
2. Full 16:9 aspect
ratio
3. Zoom
5. Caption
(Top & bottom pix
compressed)
7. HDTV Twin View
1. Some registers are duplicated under different groups for ease of ad-
justments. These duplicated registers have the same name. Chang-
ing the register data at one location causes the data to change at the
other location as well.
2. Save adjustments often. Changing registers will hold the new data,
but changing picture sizes (zoom, full, caption, etc) will instantly lose
any unsaved data that was just held.
3. There are separate contrast, color level, and hue adjustments for:
¨
The main picture
¨
The HDTV picture
¨
Each twin view picture
They are adjusted for equal levels as you switch modes. This is so
the picture is not brighter in one mode than another.
