The monitor is designed with selected CRT and carefully routed wires around CRT, make sure exactly the same routing scheme is used when doing CRT replacement. The TCO 99 scheme is for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employ ees), Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The National Board for Industry and Technical Development in Sweden).

Operation Theory This is a fully digital controlled multi-sync color monitor that is compliant with DDC1/2B Plug and Play VESA standard and offers the following main features. 4-1 Main Features 1. Simplified design with minimum components. 2. The NOVATEK NT68P65AU processor-- that has I C bus controlled geometric correction, contrast and brightness-- offers the functions for: (a) Contrast, (b) Brightness, (c) H-size, (d) H-position, (e) V-size, (f) V-position, (g) Pincushion, and (h) Trapezoid, (i) Pin Balance, (j) Parallelogram.

4-3-1 Horizontal Section 1. The oscillator is driven by the currents in R472 and R468. The minimum oscillator frequency is determined by R472 and the maximum frequency is determined by R468. 2. Horizontal sync goes into pin 15 through R494. And horizontal flyback pulse goes into pin 1 through R479 and bypass filter C445 from Emitter of Q407 and C412, C433, C411, R419, C456, R421, D413 for AFC loop.

4-3-7 Contrast Section 1. Contrast is controlled by I701 through I C bus to I501 (LM1267) directly. 2. Beam current is detected through T101 (FBT) pin 7, D106, C109, Q102, R108, R121, R122 to control I501 pin 22 voltage. When I501 pin 22 voltage drops below 5V, the ABL function will happen. 4-3-8 Dynamic focus circuitry The dynamic focus is applied to improve the corner focus performance, it includes horizontal and vertical dynamic focus.

4-4-6 Synchronization 1. Normal Mode The sync pulse from FBT (31 kHz~95 kHz) via R812, R831, C815, R826, D824, C814 and R816 to pin 4 of I801 to keep I801 synchronized with horizontal sync input frequency. 2. Power Saving Modes: Off mode Because there is no pulse from FBT, so the free-run frequency is decided by R817 and C814 and the SMPS works at 22 kHz.

1. The I502 NT6827-00002 is OSD IC. The OSD signals are worked by positive vertical pulse from I701 pin 32 that goes through R554 to I502 pin 10, and positive horizontal pulse from HFLB1 through R527 to I502 pin 5. CPU I701 pin 27, 28 (I C bus) transfers information to I502 pin 7, 8.
5 Alignments and Adjustments This section of the service manual explains how to make permanent adjustments to the monitor settings. 5-1 General Adjustments 5-1-1 Adjustment Conditions a) Power Supply Apply AC 115 V or 220 V b) Warm-up Time The monitor must be powered on for 15 minutes before starting any alignment, but requires 30 minutes of warm-up time for convergence adjustment.

5-2-6 Degaussing Degaussing is required when poor color impurity appears on the screen. This monitor uses an automatic degaussing circuit that is activated when the power is on. The automatic degaussing will be fully functional again after the monitor has been in operation for 20 minutes. The degaussing effect is confined to the picture tube since the coils are mounted at the back of the tube.
