REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

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!

HOME SECURITY SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION USING LASER BEAM !



A low-cost, invisible laser circuit to protect your house from thieves or trespassers. A laser pointer torch, which is easily available in the market, can be used to operate this device
 
The block diagram of the unit shown depicts the overall arrangement for providing security to a house. A laser
torch powered by 3V power-supply is used
  for generating a laser beam.

A combination of plain mirrors M1 through M6 is used to direct the laser beam around the house to form a net. The laser beam is directed to finally fall on an LDR that forms part of the receiver unit as shown in Fig.
Any interruption of the
  beam by a thief/trespasser will result into energize the alarm. The 3V power-supply circuit is a conventional full wave rectifier-filter circuit. Any alarm unit that operates on 230V AC can be components. When switches S1 and S2 are activated, transformer X1, followed by a full-wave rectifier and smoothing capacitor C1, drives relay RL1 through the laser switch.

The laser beam should be aimed continuously on LDR. As long as the laser beam falls on LDR, transistor T1 remains forward biased and relay RL1 is thus in energized condition. When a person crosses the line of laser beam, relay RL1 turns off and transformer X2 gets energized to provide a parallel path across N/C contact and the pole of relay RL1.

In this condition, the laser beam will have no effect on LDR and the alarm will continue to operate as long as switch S2 is on.

When the torch is switched on, the pointed laser beam is reflected from a definite point/place on the periphery of the house. Making use of a set of properly oriented mirrors one can form an invisible net of laser rays as shown in the block diagram. The final ray should fall on LDR of the circuit.

Note. LDR should be kept in a long pipe to protect it from other sources of light, and its total distance from the source may be kept limited to 500 meters.
The total cost of the circuit, including the laser torch, is Rs 500/= or less.
