SONY KP-53HS10, KP-53XBR300, KP-61HS10, KP-61XBR300 - TOP PART OF THE PICTURE [VERTICAL LINES] DISTORTED WHEN CONNECTED TO SATELLITE RECEIVER.




FAULT APPEARANCE
  • Topside of the picture is distorted in 1080i/480p when connected to Star Choice satellite receiver into the projection TV’s Video 5 input. This symptom will only occur in a component Y, Pb, Pr configuration.
  • The HDD201 has non-standard sync pulses on the Y output signal during the vertical blanking time. These pulses effect the TV’s video processing resulting in picture distortions.
  • For both Y, Pb, Pr and RGB connection configurations, a separate H & V Sync connection cable must be used between the satellite receiver and the video 5 input on the TV. In order to correct this symptom, a standard type RCA audio patch cable may be used. (See connecting procedure below).  The Star Choice (HDD-201) satellite receiver is designed to be sold and used in Canada only. Therefore this problem should not be seen in the USA.
Connection on rear side of Star Choice HDD-201:
Separate H and V sync cables required to connect to KP-53HS10 and KP-61HS10 video 5 input.
Connection to Rear side of HS10 model:
Connect separate H and V sync from Star Choice cables to KP-53 and 61HS10 video 5 input.
