Working principle analysis of the unit
1. Analog signal flow
Antenna reception signal send to integrative tuner (contain HF and IF amplifier circuit), the tuner is controlled the command (SDA and SCL) of the MCU N301 (M16C), select appropriate channel to system switch, via HF amplifier and IF amplifier decode, output video signal of 2VPP and sound signal of 1VPP.
Sound signal (SCART1, 2 sound, AV sound, YPbPr, HDMI and D-SUB) via N581 HEF4052BT (sound diverter switch) to output signal, it send to N801(MPS3410 sound processing and volume control) switch of audio. Select right/left sound channel, their send to digital sound amplifier N803 (TPA3008) amplify, then send to speaker.
After output video signal of tuner, SCART1 video signal and RGB signal via matched resistance, the signal thought alone channel send to main decode IC(N101 SVP-EX52) video switch, A/D transition, digital decode, image scale and OSD superposition, then send to LVDS level drive for LCD screen.
AV, S-Video, SCART2 video and Y/C signal thought matched resistance, the signal send to the N506 video switch (SN74CBT3257CDR), via switching to selected signal (EX52_Y and EX52_C) to main decode IC (N101 SVP-EX52) video switch, A/D transition, digital decode, image scale and OSD superposition, then send to LVDS level drive for LCD screen.
D-sub and YPbPr signal thought matched resistance, the signal send to the N507 video switch (SN74CBT3257CDR), via switching to selected signal (EX52_YUV) to main decode IC (N101 SVP-EX52) video switch, A/D transition, digital decode, image scale and OSD superposition, then send to LVDS level drive for LCD screen.
2. Digital signal flow:
HDMI signal thought HDMI reception chip N405 (SiI9011HDMI with HDCP function), after receive, output digital format signal send to SVP-EX52 PIP channel thought image scale and OSD superposition, then send to LVDS level drive for LCD screen. The HDMI chip output audio digital format signal change to analog sound signal from N403 (CS4344 audio DA transfer chip), then N581 switched to N801 (MPS3410 sound processing and volume control).
3. TELETEXT function
This unit adopt main decode IC N101(SVP-EX52) of Trident company, it has TELETEXT decode function, after decoded, the teletext information in OSD display.

Sound processing IC (MSP3410)
Sound signal send to sound processing N801 MSP3410, and dual-circuit tuner has second SIF, it sends to N801 (stereo decode and auto volume control), N801 has audio channel switch, after switching in N581 (HEF4052BT), the audio input of GA/HDMI/YPbPr will be sent to N801 together with the audio signal of TV and AV to do the switching process. A way signal thought volume and high-low sound controlled, output the left and right audio send to digital audio amplifier N803 (TPA3008) amplify, then it send to speaker, other way signal output left-right audio send to earphone amplifier N805 (NJW1109), after audio control and power amplifier, it output to earphone socket. Other two ways signal output audio of TV out and AV out by SCART terminal of video board.

Mitsubishi LT-55154, LT- 40164, LT-46164, LT-55164, LT-46265, LT-55265 – How to enter the service mode, service mode adjustments, back-up and restore, reset and initialization and more

 

Always respect voltages. While some may not be dangerous in themselves, they can cause unexpected reactions that are best avoided. Before reaching into a powered TV set, it is best to test the high voltage insulation. It is easy to do, and is a good service precaution.

The VLP43, VLP43+ and VLP43++ chassis types. The specific models for each chassis type, dimensions and weight are listed below.



Cold Check
With the alternating current (AC) plug removed from the AC source, place a jumper across the two AC plug prongs. Connect one lead of an ohm meter to the AC plug and touch the other lead to each exposed metal part (i.e. antennas, handle bracket, metal cabinet, screw heads, metal overlay, control shafts, etc.), particularly any exposed metal part that has a return path to the chassis. The resistance of the exposed metal parts having a return path to the chassis should be a minimum of 1Meg Ohm. Any resistance below this value indicates an abnormal condition and requires corrective action.
2. Hot Check ...Use the circuit shown below to perform the hot check test.
1. Keep switch S1 open and connect the receiver to the measuring circuit. Immediately after connection, and with the switching devices of the receiver in their operating positions, measure the leakage current for both positions of switch S2.
2. Close switch S1, energizing the receiver. Immediately after closing switch S1, and with the switching devices of the receiver in their operating positions, measure the leakage current for both positions of switch S2. Repeat the current measurements of items 1 and 2 after the receiver has reached thermal stabilization. The leakage current must not exceed 0.5 milliamps (mA).



 REMOTE CONTROL USE FOR SERVICE
Many service functions and adjustments are accessed using the Remote Control.

OPTION MENU
1. Press the <MENU> button on the remote control.

Information on the currently selected digital channel can be displayed on screen.
Note: A digital channel received using the Antenna Input must be selected first.
1. Select the Antenna Input and an active digital channel.
2. Enter the Option Menu <MENU> <2-4-7-0>.
3. Select “Digital Signal Strength” and <ENTER>.
4. Press <EXIT> to quit.


RESET / INITIALIZATION

Many customer generated symptoms, intermittent symptoms or no symptom found can be resolved by using the various Reset and Initialization options. Before visiting the customer’s home ask the customer 1st perform a System Reset by pressing the <POWER> button on the front panel and holding it for 8 seconds. If this does not resolve the issue, they can perform an A/V Reset by pressing the <INPUT> + <VOL e> buttons on the front panel at the same time and holding for 10 seconds. Then, if necessary, perform a user level Initialization by pressing <MENU><1-2-3> <ENTER> with the remote. The customer should be made aware when settings and/or options will be reset. For more information, see the chart below


BACKUP / RESTORE ISF SETTING

VLP43+ and VLP43++ models - If the customer has calibrated the ISF (ADV) video settings, the settings data can be backed up on a USB memory device. If the settings are lost due to a Reset or Initialization procedure, PWB-MAIN replacement or other reasons, the settings data can be restored.

LED INDICATIONS AND SELF DIAGNOSTICS

The front panel Status LED provides an indication of the set’s operation and the possible cause of a malfunction.

A blinking red and yellow Status LED will indicate an Error Code that can help determine the cause of a circuit failure.
• The number of Red blinks indicates the value of the MSD (tens digit) of the Error Code.
• The number of Yellow blinks indicates the value of the LSD (ones digit) of the Error Code.
Example: If the Error Code is “27”, the LED will continuously blink Red two times, followed by blinking Yellow seven times.

To perform a System Reset, press and hold the side Power button for 10 seconds. Or, unplug the set for 10 seconds then restore power
