SELF DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
1.
OUTLINE
· The units in this manual contain a self-diagnostic function. · If an error occurs, the STANDBY 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 STANDBY 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.
2.
DIAGNOSTIC TEST INDICATORS
· When an errors occurs, the STANDBY 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".

The PICTURE and Brightness controls should be set as follows unless otherwise noted: CONTRAST .......................... 100% (LIVE) BRIGHTNESS control .......... 50% COLOUR .............................. 50% HUE ....................................... 50% SHARPNESS ........................ 50% Preparation: · In order to reduce the influence of external magnetic forces on the picture tube, face the TV set in an easterly or westerly direction. · Turn the power switch for the unit ON and erase the magnetic force using a degausser.
3-1. BEAM LANDING
1. Degauss CRT screen. 2. Inut all-green pattern. 3. Adjust roughly landing at the centre of the screen by moving the purity magnet. 4. Adjust toughly landing at both right and left sides of the screen by sliding the DY forward or backward. 5. Adjust landing according to the lupe method or the allowance mothod. 6. Adjust DY so the horizontal tilt of DY is within the standard. Product standard is as follows.

7. Use disk magnet, if landing at the corner is not good. Disk mg shold be applyied on the funnel. Don't use mag if possible because of picture distortion. 8. Screw down the DY.

(1) Horizontal and Vertical Static Convergence 1. Receive the channel with dot signal. 2. Minimize BRT and set picture level to the position where the dot is easy to see. 3. Adjust horizontal convergence at the centre of the screen with V. STAT correction piece. 4. Adjust vertical convergence of dot at the centre of the screen with V. STAT MG. 5. Adjust repeatedly static convergence according to righe figure in case that both HMC and VMC are not independant. In case of both HMC and VMC exist attach BMC magnet to neck assembly. Case of HMC attached Turn BMC over in case of adjustment in opposite direction. Use BMC mg only when it is necessary, for it makes CRT focus worse. 4 Movement of tilting and opening or closing the V.

(2) Convergence adjustment of screen surroundings. (Dynamic convergence) 1. Recieve dot pattern. 2. Set BRT to main and PIC to the level where dot pattern is easy to see. 3. Shake DY up and down. Insert DY spacer at position 'A' so that cross MIS convergence is minimum. 4. Shake DY right or left and insert DY spacer at position 'C' and 'D' where tilt is the smallest both on vertical and horizontal axis.
3-3. FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
1. Receive monoscope pattern. 2. Adjust FBT focus VR so that the picture has the best focus. Adjust the focus so that the center of the screen is in the best focus. Turn focus VR clockwise to the end and then turn back counter clockwise. While turning back, pay attention to the centre cross of the colour pattern, and then adjust the VR so that horizontal line because clear and vertical line begins to become unclear. Change signal to dot pattern, confirm that corner focus is good. 3. Receiving white signal, confirm that magenta ring is hardly noticed.
