Chassis Block Diagrams Auto-keystone Correction This projector carries out the keystone correction automatically by using a G-sensor,IC3851, on the main board. The G-sensor detects the inclination of the projector and sends data as a voltage to the A/D converter,IC3801. The A/D converter converts analoge voltage value to digital data and sends data to the system control, IC301 via the IIC bus lines.The system control, IC301, calculates the keystone correction value according to the data detected from the G-sensor by using the predefined conversion table, and always adds the proper keystone cor- rection into the projected picture automatically.
■ Troubleshooting No Power This projector provides a function which can be specified a defective area simply by indicating the LEDs on the con- trol panel. Connect the AC cord and press the Power button once and then check the LED indication. - When all of LED indicators are not lighting, the symptom indicates that the primary power supply circuit does not operate properly.
Troubleshooting No Picture Check following steps. No picture with all of input sources Check signal processing stage and LCD driving stage; Check RGB S&H signals at test points TPB1, TPB2, TPG1, TPG2, TPR1, TPR2. Check power supply circuit 15.5V and peripheral circuit. Check ICs IC501, IC531, IC561, IC401, IC301 and peripheral circuits.
