The c h a s s i s 3A monitor is specially designed for the
connection of the audio-video (AV) tuner 22AV1990 or
2 2 A V 1 9 9 1 . A block diagram is shown in Fig. 1.2.

1. T h e control panel, U I 0 0 8 , contains one microcomputer,

IC7830, which, via I^C, drives all connected I C s plus the
teletext decoder, U I 007. T h e O S D Information is
applied by the AV tuner, via the R C 5 line (pin 5 of E X T
1), to the microcomputer, which in turn p a s s e s it on to
the teletext decoder.

2. T h e analog video controls (brightness, colour

saturation and contrast) are carried out by an ICD (=
interface for colour decoding) which is driven by the
microcomputer via the I^C bus.

3. T h e S S P only contains 1 euroconnector ( E X T 1). On the

G D P the E X T 2 input is available via 3 C I N C H plugs
( C V B S , left and right sound channel). T h e S S P now
c h o o s e s between these two sources.

4. On the sound output amplifier ( P A M = power amplifier

monitor), U I 003, volume, tone control and balance are
controlled via the I^C bus.

5. J u s t a s in the receiver version, the power supply of the

monitor consists of a S O P S supply, however extended
with a separate transformer which supplies the
microcomputer with a voltage of lts own.

The blocks of the monitor that have not been d i s c u s s e d

2.2 Operation monitor
Ttie monitor is only suited for reproducing picture and
sound that come from another set. T h i s is usually an
audio-video tuner with peripheral equipment connected to
it (Fig. 2.14).

Other peripherals may be:

- Video section : -videorecorder
- LaserVision player
- satellite T V tuner

- Audio section : - cassette player

- c o m p a c t - d i s c player
- - record player

2.2.1 OSD and L E D display

The Information on program number or channel number,
name and system of a selected program, is stored in the
tuner (e.g. audio/-video tuner 22AV1990/22AV1991). This
Information goes, via pin 8 of E X T 1 (the R C 5 line), to the
monitor where it is processed into on screen display
Information.

When programs, channels or external equipment (video)

are selected, the relevant Information is displayed on the
screen for 3 s e c o n d s .

When the display button (OSD) is actuated, the afore

mentioned Information remains on the screen. When a
linear function is actuated, it appears on the screen. With
the personal preference key the 4 linear functions can be
made visible.
If the display button is p r e s s e d for more than 2 seconds,
the 4 linear functions will appear on the screen besides
program (channel, name). T h e y are kept by the monitor
itself.

Colour saturation ( C O L ) : magenta

Brightness (BRI) : cyan
Balance ( B A L ) : stripe (black)
Volume (VOL) : green

If the display button is pressed for more than 3 seconds,

the transmitter name index appears. T h e index h a s 34
available places. If the display button is pressed again, the
O S D will disappear.

With the S E A R C H command the indication " S E A R C H "

appears at the bottom of the screen, and the ascending
channel number in the right-hand top corner. T h e colour
is green or red, depending on the position of the system
switch. This switch is situated on the keyboard of the
audio-video tuner.

If the source select switch is in position "front", the O S D of

the tuner will appear via E X T 1 .

If the monitor is not connected to a tuner that supplies the

Information for the O S D , only the Information of the 4
linear functions will appear when the display key is
pressed. Information that is not given via O S D , is given via
the L E D display.

The 4 LEDs are:

1) red : s t a n d - b y and R G B
2) green : ON and R C 5

The slope is determined by the self-inductance of the coil
and the supply voltage.
The maximum current depends on the period of time t^ -
t^ and is 2A at nominal load.
T h i s time interval is controlled with the pulse-width control
which is driven with the input voltage, via diodes D2 and
D3, and with part of the output voltage, via the
opto-coupler. This opto-coupler is responsible for the
stabilization of the +140V.
On the secondary winding, 1 6 - 1 8 , of the S O P S
transformer a negative voltage is available which prevents
diode D l from conducting.
At t, a negative voltage appears at the base of T S . T S is
not conducting anymore, so the collector voltage
increases. T h e secondary voltage becomes positive.

necessary to suppress the remaining sound information.

VHFa signals, the AFC reference circuit is tuned to 37.9

switching signal. In system B,G VHFa the AFC polarlty is
"switched over" as well. As In VHFa the local oscillator
frequency in the IF unit Is higher than the vislon carrier, in
contrast with VHFb and UHF, the AFC should control
reversely at tuning. The video detector is switched over to
positive demodulation for SECAM L,L' signals. PAL B,G,I
signals are subjected to negative modulation. The FM
sound signals are processed according to the QSS
system. The reference circuit is now switched over
between 32.7 MHz for VHFb and UHF and 37.9 for VHFa.
The output signals are 5.5 MHz, 5.74 MHz upon reception
of signals from system B,G and 6 MHz upon reception of
