REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

Applicable to all of the PU01A Chassis.

(1) Because this is not a hot chassis, it is not necessary to use an isolation transformer. However, the use of isolation transformer will help protect test instrument.
(2) Adjustment must be done in the correct order.
(3) The adjustment must be performed in the circumstance of 25
degree C ± 5 degree C of temperature and 65 % ± 10 % of relative humidity if there is no specific designation.
(4) The input voltage of the receiver must keep 100 V ~ 240 V, 50 / 60 Hz.
(5) The receiver must be operated for about 5 minutes prior to the adjustment when module is in the circumstance of over 15 degree C.
- In case of keeping module is in the circumstance of 0 degree C, it should be placed in the circumstance of above 15 degree C for 2 hours.
- In case of keeping module is in the circumstance of below -20 degree C, it should be placed in the circumstance of above 15 degree C for 3 hours.
1) Press the POWER ON KEY on Remote control for adjustment.
2) Press the ADJ KEY on Remote control  and enter EZ ADJUST. Select “4. 

WHITE PATTERN” by using (CH +/-) and select “White” by using (VOL +/-)

- Set is activated HEAT run without signal generator in this mode.
- Single colour pattern (RED / BLUE / GREEN) of HEAT RUN MODE uses to check panel.  [If you turn on a still screen more than 20 minutes (Especially digital pattern, cross hatch pattern), an after-image may be occur in the black level part of the screen.]

PCB assembly adjustment method.
* Caution: Set up “RF mode(noise)” after PCB assembly adjustment.
*Download
(1) Execute ISP program “Mstar ISP Utility” and then click “Config” tab.
(2) Set as below, and then click “Auto Detect” and check “OK” message.  If display “Error”, Check connect computer, jig, and set.
(3) Click “Connect” tab. If display “Can’t ”, Check connect computer, jig, and set.

(4) Click “Read” tab, and then load download file(XXXX.bin) by clicking “Read”.

(5) Click “Auto” tab and set as below.

Data


Adjustment of White Balance.
Caution: Press the POWER ON KEY on R/C before W/B adjustment.
Test Equipment
- Color Analyzer(CS-1000, CA-100+(CH.10), CA-210(CH.10) ) [ Please adjust CA-100+ / CA-210 by CS-1000 before measuring --> You should use Channel 10 which is Matrix compensated (White, Red, Green, Blue revised) by CS-1000 and adjust in accordance with White balance adjustment coordinate.

Connecting Picture of the Measuring Instrument (On Automatic control ).
Inside PATTERN is used when W/B is controlled. Connect to auto controller or push control R/C ADJ Key Enter the mode of White-Balance, the pattern will come out.

Auto-control interface and directions.
(1) Adjust in the place where the influx of light like floodlight around is blocked. (illumination is less than 10ux).
(2) In case of PDP: Measure and adjust after sticking the Color Analyzer (CA-100+, CA210 ) to the side of the module.
In case of LCD: Adhere closely the Color Analyzer (CA210) to the module less than 10cm distance, keep it with the surface of the Module and Color Analyzer’s Prove vertically.(80~100°).
(3) Aging time.
1) After aging start, keep the power on (no suspension of power supply) and heat-run over 5 minutes.
2) In case of PDP, keep white pattern using inside pattern.
3) In case of LCD, using ’no signal’ or ‘full white pattern’ or the others, check the back light on.

Manual white Balance.
(1) Press the POWER ON KEY on R/C for adjustment and heat run over 5 minutes.
(2) Zero Calibrate CA-100+ / CA-210, and when controlling, stick the sensor to the center of PDP module surface.
(3) Press the ADJ KEY on R/C and enter EZ ASJUST Select “3.W/B ADJUST” and press ENTER(V)
Set test-pattern on and display inside pattern.
