AE-5 SELF DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE
The identification of errors within theAE-5 chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the event of
one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a continuous flashing LED) and
then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be
displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted) See table 1., non fatal errors are reported using this method.
Flash Timing Example : e.g. error number 3

Device acknowledge is used to check IIC errors. Device acknowledge is checked by sending an IIC start sequence during CRT power on. Each
device is checked three times, if there is no acknowledge after each attempt, it will be regarded as an error.
There are three steps to check for errors.
1. IIC line 0
If all devices except the NVM have errors, IIC line 0 error is displayed.
2. Board check
If all devices mounted on one board have errors, board error is displayed.
3. Each device check
If IIC line error and board error are not detected then the device with the error is displayed.
The detected errors can be displayed as follows :
1. Error Monitor Menu.
2. Error Reader.

2. Error Reader Display
The error reader display is connected to the service connector to read actual error codes. The part number for the error reader display is

NexTView is an electronic programme guide with up to 1 week* of programme information on those channels included in the selected provider.
*If the data exceeds the memory of NexTView, you will get information on less than 7 days.
When looking for information you can search by theme (sports, art etc.), date or time (e.g. broadcasts between 8 and 9
p.m.). When you’ve founda programme you can go directly to this programme, use the timer to remind you of it or preset your VCR with Smartlink.
The NexTView provider is responsible for the contents of the guide. The TV set is responsible for the presentation, that is the menu structure and the navigation, if there is none from the provider. If there is a navigation from the provider the basic operation with the joystick is the same as described in the Sony navigation. At first you need to select a channel providing a NexTView service. In this case the indication “NexTView” is displayed as soon as all data is available. When you later change the channel you can still select this NexTView service.

Only remove the necessary plate to gain access to the printed wiring board.
(2) REFITTING THE PLATES
Because the plates differ in size it is important that the correct plates are refitted in their original location. Please note that the plates need to be rotated 180 degrees from their cut position to allow the tabs to be fitted into their catch positions.
For safety reasons, on no account should the plates be removed and not refitted after servicing.

•When complete readjustment is necessary or a new picture tube is
installed, carry out the following adjustments.
•Unless there are specific instructions to the contrary, carry out
these adjustments with the rated power supply.
•Unless there are specific instructions to the contrary, set the
controls and switches to the following settings :
Contrast .................................. normal
Brightness .................................. normal
Preparation:
1. In order to reduce the influence of geomagnetism on the set’s
picture tube, face it in an easterly or westerly direction.
2. Switch on the TV set’s power and degauss with a degausser.
(1) Adjustment of Correction Magnet for Y-Splitting Axis.
1. Input a crosshatch signal from the pattern generator.
2. Set the Picture control to minimum and confirm that the
Brightness control is set to normal.
3. Position the neck assembly as indicated in Fig.3-2.
4. Loosen the deflection yoke fixing screw.
5. Move the deflection yoke as far forward as is possible.
6. Adjust the upper and lower pin symmetrically by opening or
closing theY-splitting axis correction magnets located on the neck
assembly. [See Fig 3-3]
7. Return the deflection yoke to its original position and re-tighten its
fixing screw.
Carry out the adjustments in the following order :
3-1. BeamLanding.
3-2. Convergence.
3-3. Focus.
3-4. WhiteBalance.
Note : Test equipment required.
1. Colorbar/pattern generator.
2. Degausser.
3. Oscilloscope.
4. Digital multimeter.
Fig.3-1
(2) Landing
Note : Before carrying out the following adjustments adjust the
magnets as indicated below [See Fig.3-4].
1. Input a crosshatch signal from the signal generator.
2. Rough-adjust the focus and horizontal convergence.
3. Switch from the crosshatch pattern to an all-red pattern.
4. Move the deflection yoke backwards and adjust with the purity
magnet so that the red is at the centre and it aligns
symmetrically [See Fig.3-5].
5. Move the deflection yoke forward to the point where the entire
screen just becomes red [Mark its position].
6. Move the deflection yoke further forward until the screen just
changes colour at the edges. [Mark its position]
7. Position the deflection yoke between the two marks indicated
above.
8. Input a crosshatch pattern from the pattern generator and rotate the
deflection yoke so that the horizontal lines are parallel with the top
and bottom of the screen.
9. When the position of the deflection yoke has been determined,
fasten it with its fixing screw.
10. Switch the pattern generator to green then blue and confirm the
purity.
11. If the beam does not land correctly in all the corners of the screen,
use disk magnets to correct it. [Confirm the corner landing for
green and blue]
SECTION 3 SET-UP ADJUSTMENTS
3-1. Beam Landing
Caution :
High voltages are present on the Deflection yoke terminals - take care
when handling the Deflection yoke whilst carrying out adjustments.
