LG color monitors Flatron M3201C How to enter the, service mode, Service adjustments and circuit description

 

LG M3201C-BAFE.A**LLC, M3701C M3701C-BAFE.A**LLC, M4201C M4201C-BAFE.A**LLC

There are some special components used in LCD monitor that are important for safety. These parts are marked on the schematic diagram and the replacement parts list. It is essential that these critical parts should be replaced with the manufacturer’s specified parts.

If the surface of panel becomes dirty, please wipe it off with a soft material. (Cleaning with a dirty or rough cloth may damage the panel.)

Do not apply AC power to this instrument and/or any of its electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat sinks are correctly installed.

Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)



Block diagram


Description of block diagram

AV input selection circuit
1) AV(Video) INPUT SELECT : This section is composed of Video switching IC (CXA2040AQ_IC513) and peripheral devices.
Video switching IC(CXA2040AQ_U201) selects CVBS video or S-video and the signal is sent to Scaler IC(IC101).
2) AV Sync Detection : This section is composed of Sync Separator IC(LA7217M_IC509) and peripheral devices.
Av input selection block sends selected signal to Sync detection block then sync detection block identifies if AV signal is present or not. And this block sends this information to Scaler(Micom).
2. Component INPUT
Component input signal was connected from input jack to scaler directly.
3. RGB INPUT OUTPUT CIRCUIT
1) D-SUB RGB INPUT OUTPUT : This section is composed of RGB Input Output Jack(P503), Schmitt trigger inverter IC(IC507), OP-AMPs(IC510, IC511, IC512) and peripheral devices.
RGB input signal path was connected from input jack to Scaler directly. But scaler receives RGB Sync signal via schmitt trigger inverter IC.
RGB output signal was made by OP-Amp ICs. And this sends output signal to RGB output jack.
4. HDMI INPUT CIRCUIT
This section is composed of TMDS receiver IC(ANX9021_IC508), ESD protection diode(CM2021_D526, D527) and peripheral devices.
TMDS receiver IC receives TMDS signal via ESD protection diode. And it convert HDMI signal to digital RGB signal. And it sends to scaler.
5. RS-232C INPUT OUTPUT CIRCUIT
This section is composed of RS-232C IC(ICL3232C_IC503), and peripheral devices.
Computer and scalar(micom) was connected by RS-232C IC.

7. AUDIO DECODER
This section is composed of MSP4440K(IC804), NTP2000(IC805) and peripheral devices.
MSP4440K is processing audio signal(AV, Component, PC Audio and IIS).
Digital audio processor IC receives IIS signal from MSP4440K, and converts IIS to PWM signal.
This IC's output signal is sent to Audio Amplifier IC(TAS5122_IC802).
8. AUDIO AMPLIFIER
This section is composed of TAS5122(IC802) and peripheral devices.
Audio Amplifier's function is amplification of sound signal received from Audio Decoder.
Input Audio signal is amplified according to the DC Volume control curve.

Adjustment

All adjustment are thoroughly checked and corrected when the monitor leaves the factory, but sometimes several minor adjustments may be required.
Adjustment should be following procedure and after warming up for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Alignment appliances and tools.
- IBM compatible PC
- Programmable Signal Generator. (eg. VG-819 made by Astrodesign Co.)
- Oscilloscope.
- White Balance Meter. (CA-110)

DDC Data Write Procedure-Analog
1) Use this procedure only when there is some problem on Analog EDID data.
2) Run alignment program for M3201C on the IBM compatible PC.
3) Select EEPROM →Analog EDID write command and Enter.
4) This will write the Analog EDID data to EEPROM.
2. DDC Data Write Procedure-Digital
1) Use this procedure only when there is some problem on Digital EDID data.
2) Run alignment program for M3201C on the IBM compatible PC.
3) Select EEPROM →Digital EDID write command and Enter.
4) This will write the Digital EDID data to EEPROM.
