Chipper Check® software: Chipper Check® interface box NOTE: All alignments with the exception of basic color temperature and geometry require the use of Chipper Check® software and interface box. Service Mode Most of the alignments for this chassis are software-driven. Adjustments are made by modifying parameter values using Chipper Check and the service menu. When parameter values are modified, the corresponding T-chip registers, tuner registers and EEPROM locations are updated. A list of the software alignment parameters accessible using the front panel is shown in Table 1. All other alignments require Chipper Check® Using the Front Panel Controls to enter Service Mode 1. 2. 3. Turn the instrument on. Press and hold the MENU button. a. Press and release the POWER button. b. Press and release the VOL+ button. Release the MENU button. The following Service Mode Screen will be displayed. Service Mode Screen The Parameter (P) number is on the left side of the display and represents the function that will be performed. The Value (V) is on the right side of the display and represents the decimal value stored for the function selected. Once the Service Mode Security Code has been entered the CH /\ and CH \/ buttons on the front panel (or the remote transmitter) are used to change the parameter (P) number. The VOL + and VOL buttons are used to change the decimal value (V) of the function. NOTE: When the service mode is accessed, the parameter will be 0. Parameter 0 is used to input the security code. The security code is necessary to protect the factory alignments from inadvertent modification. Attempting to change the parameter (P) using CH /\ or CH \/ before the proper security code has been entered will cause the instrument to exit the service mode. A valid security code is entered (using VOL + or VOL -) Security Codes When the Service Mode is first entered, the parameter (P) will come up set at 0, which corresponds to the security code function. With the parameter (P) set to 0 adjust the value (V) (using VOL + or VOL -) to 76 for access to the Front Panel Service Mode. Set the value (V) to 200 for Chipper Check® operation. Page 3-1 ATC113 ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES Once the security code has been set, individual alignments can be accessed by pressing CH /\ or CH \/ changing the parameter (P) number. Once a parameter ( P ) has been selected for a particular alignment the VOL + and VOL - buttons can be used to change the value ( V ) of the alignments selected. Parameters available through the front panel are shown in table 1.

Page 3-2 ATC113 ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES ATC113 ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES Error Codes If certain failures occur in the chassis, error codes will be stored in the chassis EEPROM. These error codes are displayed in parameters 1, 2 and 3. Parameter 1 stores the error code for the first failure experienced by the instrument. Similarly, parameter 2 stores the error code for the second failure. Parameter 3 is automatically updated to display the error code for the most recent failure experienced by the instrument. Error codes are summarized in Table 2. no failures have occurred since the last time the error code parameters were reset. NOTE: The error codes should be reset to 0 after servicing using the VOL + and VOL - buttons. Because a failure of a bus IC is a possible reason for needing service, normal acknowledgment checking is disabled in the service mode. If an IIC device has failed, its address will be stored in the error code area.

X-Ray Shutdown Check The following procedure should be performed prior to, and upon completion of service: 1. Momentarily apply a short between the shutdown test point (BL901- located at back edge of chassis near main tuner) and chassis ground (main tuner shield). The instrument must shutdown immediately, then turn back on after ~ 2 seconds. 2. Apply and maintain a short between the shutdown test point and chassis ground (tuner shield). The instrument must shutdown immediately and remain shutdown (the instrument will attempt to restart several times, then remain off). 3. Remove the short from BL901. 4. Enter the Service Mode and reset the error code parameter(s) to 0. CHASSIS ALIGNMENT The ATC113 chassis requires the use of ChipperCheck®, a TV/PC interface box, and a suitable computer for the majority of the alignments. A 486DX/33MHz PC with 8Meg of memory is recommended. Basic geometry and color temperature adjustments are the only alignments accessible through the front panel. These adjustments are included in this service manual as front panel procedures but can also be performed using ChipperCheck®. ChipperCheck® software and the TV/PC interface box are available from Sencore Electronics @: http://www.sencore.com/ or Tel. 1-800-SENCORE (1-800-736-2673) Instructions for the operation of ChipperCheck® software and connection of the TV/PC interface are included as contextsensitive help files in the ChipperCheck® software.

Fine tune the Cyan and Magenta levels by adjusting PIP S-Video Fine tint (parameter#39) so that the amplitudes of the PIP Cyan and Magenta bars are as close as possible to the same level as the main picture Cyan and Magenta bars. 11. Because of the interaction of the Saturation adjustment to the Fine Tint alignment it may be necessary to repeat steps 7 through 10 until the PIP is correctly adjusted. Gemstar Positioning Test Point: Adjust: Observe Display Parameter #43 Parameter #44 Parameter #45 Parameter #46 Parameter #47 Range: 73 - 185 Range: 10 - 160 Range: 5 - 80 Range: 20 - 100 Range: 0 13 NOTE: The OSD for Gemstar is not intended to need any alignment. This alignment should only be performed if the Gemstar module is repaired or replaced. 1. Apply a Color Bar pattern to the RF Input. 2. Turn on PIP and select the Color Bars as the Main and PIP picture. 3. Put the instrument into Service Mode. 4. Go to parameters #43, #44, #45, #46, and #47 and record their values before proceeding. This will allow you to reset the alignments to known values in case one is adjusted by mistake. 5. Go to parameter #43, Gemstar horizontal position. Adjust the value by one in either direction. This will bring Gemstar Diagnostic Screen Go to parameter #44, Gemstar vertical position. Adjust the vertical centering of the Gemstar display so that the distance from the upper edge of the PIP to the top edge of the tube is the same distance as the distance from the bottom of the blue bar to the bottom edge of the display. 7. Go to parameter #46, PIP window vertical size. Adjust the value either up or down. This will bring up the Gemstar diagnostic screen shown below. Adjust the PIP window so that the bottom of the PIP window is approximately even with the bottom of the Version line of text. The larger the value the larger the PIP window. 8. Go to parameter #45, vertical PIP position, and adjust the value. The screen will revert to the Gemstar Diagnostic Screen shown on the previous page. There is a gray border around the PIP display. Adjust the value with the volume down button until the lower gray border of the PIP display is completely visible and the main picture can be seen below it. Record this value. 9. Adjust the value of the PIP vertical position with the volume up button until the entire upper gray border of the PIP display can be seen and the main picture can be seen above it. Record this value. If the difference in values is 1 or 0 go to step 6 and reduce the size of the PIP window (increase the gap). If the difference is greater than 1, adjust the value to the average of the two recorded values. 10. Go to parameter #45, horizontal PIP position, and adjust the value with the volume up button until the entire left gray border of the PIP display can be seen and the main picture can be seen on the left of it . Record this value. 11. Adjust the value of the PIP horizontal position with the volume down button until the entire right gray border of the PIP display can be seen and the main picture to the right of it. Record this value. Adjust the value to the average of the two recorded values. 6. Page 3-9 Page Left Intentionally Blank Page 4-1
