1-5-1. Outline

This unit is provided with a network terminal. Using a Web browser, it can check the state of a projector and control and set the network blocks.

Additionally, this unit has Update and Event Trace functions through a network as a service-dedicated function.

The Update function can update Main (scan converter), Sub (sub-microcomputer), and Ext (network microcomputer) fi rmware.

The Event Trace function can view the event logs (a timer, lamp timer reset log, error log, and mail report log) of a projector.

1. Connection of projector and PC

. Set using a CAT5 cross cable so that the network setting of the projector and PC is the same in a subnet when connecting a projector and PC directly.

. Connect PC to the LAN so as to adjust the network setting of PC to LAN operating environment when a projector is connected to LAN.

2. IP address confi rmation

Turn on the power of a projector and display a menu screen. On the [Connection/Power] screen of a menu, confi rm the IP address of the projector.

3. Entering the service mode

To use a service-dedicated function, enter the service mode. To enter the service mode, enter the following in the address bar of a Web browser (IE6/7/8): http:// (IP address of projector) /service/

You are prompted to enter a user name and password. Enter them as follows:

User name: service

Password: (Lower-case model name) Example: vpl-ex145 or vpl-ex175 n

When moving from the service mode to other pages and entering the service mode again, close a Web browser once and start the Web browser again.

1-5-2. Update Function

m

. The port number used for TCP of updating is 58525. When the port number is used in another application, updating may not be executed satisfactorily. In this case, delete the application before updating.

. Updating may fail when many hubs are connected between PC and a projector.

. Updating may fail when network traffi cs are congested. It is recommended to update when there are a few network traffi cs.

. It is recommended to set DHCP manually rather than to acquire DHCP automatically.

. The address leased from DHCP is not released in the Update mode when DHCP is set automatically.

Avoid updating in the environment where DHCP has a short lease period.

. Updating may fail due to the blocked fi re wall function. Invalidate the fi re wall function before updating.

Boards requiring use of lead-free solder are printed with a lead free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.

(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with the lead free mark due to their particular size.)

: LEAD FREE MARK m

. Be sure to use the lead-free solder for the printed circuit board printed with the lead free mark.

. The lead-free solder melts at a temperature about 40 dC higher than the ordinary solder, therefore, it is recommended to use the soldering iron having a temperature regulator.

. The ordinary soldering iron can be used but the iron tip has to be applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time. The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful.

Video input block

Composite video and S video signals are input from VIDEO and S VIDEO of S VIDEO IN/VIDEO IN.

The two input signals are directly input to a video processor and converted into digital data using the internal AD converter of the video processor.

PC input block

The input signals from RGB of two channels

*

INPUT A and INPUT B are input to a video processor. One of the two signals is selected using a switching menu and converted into digital data using the internal AD converter of the video processor. The signal selected using a video buffer is output from MONITOR of

OUTPUT.

A component signal and video GBR signal as well as a PC signal can be also input to the RGB/Y P

B

P

R connector of INPUT A.

Only a PC signal can be input to the RGB connector of INPUT B.

AUDIO input block

A signal is input from the L (MONO) AUDIO R of S VIDEO IN/VIDEO IN and AUDIO of INPUT A/B

* stereo mini jacks. The signal selected using an audio processor is output to AUDIO of OUTPUT and a speaker.

MONITOR output block

An RGB signal is input from INPUT A/B

*

, and the channel signal selected by input switching is output from MONITOR of OUTPUT. The channel signal is not output when VIDEO and S VIDEO are selected.

The signal input from AUDIO of INPUT A/B

*

is output from AUDIO of OUTPUT. The output signal can be changed using a volume control.

The signal output from an internal speaker is switched by setting a speaker menu to ON and OFF.

Video processor & system control block

PW-950 made by Plxelworks is installed in main CPU, and an R5P series made by Renesas is installed in sub-CPU. Input signal’s pixel count conversion, aspect conversion, and OSD addition are performed using these ICs. These ICs also enable brightness, sharpness, chroma, hue, and system controls.

Control target: Control panel, OSD display, lamp cover switch, LED, and serial control

LCD timing generator (DSD2) block

Using a Sony LCD panel IC, the LCD timing generator block generates a timing pulse that drives an LCD panel. This block also uses a system in which the driving direction is reversed for each frame. White balance adjustment, gamma adjustment, and color smudge adjustment as well as timing pulse generation are performed in this IC.

LCD driver block

The LCD driver block uses a Sony LCD panel drive IC. The LCD panel is 12-phase- driven using the timing pulse generated using a timing generator. This block mounts GBR and a three-channel circuit.

VPL-EX100

SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer :

Check the metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE TEST

The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 3.5 mA. Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.

1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the

Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these instruments.

2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The

Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job.

3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication is 5.25 V, so analog meters must have an accurate lowvoltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa

SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 20 V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)
