    Sanyo DP46840

    Here's the scenario. I'm working on a Sanyo DP46840. It was free, minus the cost of repairs... That said, when the power button is pressed, the green LED come on for a few seconds and goes off... I'm working from the service manual I found HERE (PDF DOWNLOAD LINK)
    Page 4/5 of the manual deals specifically with this issue, "Power LED turns OFF within 10 sec of Power ON, or LED cycles ON & OFF"

    Step one is to check for 5V to "Power_SW" on the Main Bd, during LED ON time. (see TABLE*1.0) Per table 1.0 - Main K8B "pin 1" should be 5V. I'm getting 7.81VDC... The flow chart is either 5V or 0V... The 5V STBY is also showing 7.75VDC... My questions are, would this over voltage indicate an issue with the power board? I've always heard 5-10% over/under is acceptable, but 7+ volts is beyond 5-10%... Should I stop at step 1 and replace the Pwr Bd? Or continue to step two?

    Thanks for your time,

    Matt

    continue.

    How do we know how accurate your meter is? Is it set to Vdc? What model? Batteries good?

    Do you have another 5V voltage source to compare to? Know someone to try another meter?

      You have a good point. I just got my second meter out to check, and it appears that I have a gremlin.

      The 7V I got at the Pwr SW (Pin 1 K8B) is now intermittent after being very consistent all day... I did manage to verify that both of my meters read with 1/100 of each other. However, I did NOT manage to verify the 7V at pin 1 with the second meter.

      The 5v StdBy was verified with the second meter to read 7.73VDC. The first meter read 7.74VDC. The first meter is a Fluke model 25. The second meter is a radioshack 22-805. The batteries in both are about 6 months old with little use.

      Both of the meters were tested on a known 5VDC output. The readings were as expected...5VDC not 7+VDC

      Going by the flow chart, I'm no longer getting any voltage at pin 1 on K8B. replace Main BD... But, that still leaves the question about the 7VDC from the StdBy when it should only be 5VDC

        I have a dP42840 that when the power button was pressed would light for a few seconds, then go out. I could do this 3 times, then the power button would do nothing until I unplugged the set and then plugged it in again. Turns out to be a common problem on the Sanyo's. It was an audio regulator gone bad. I sent the board here...

        ...for the repair, no problems since.

          Is it possible to test small ceramic disc capacitor with analogue meter?
          by chth96
          I read EBOOK of Testing Electronic Component and found that

          "In order to test the small blue resin coated ceramic disk capacitor which has 104 50v specification,it is possible to test this small ceramic capacitor by making use of analogue meter.
          Set to times 10Kohm that has 12v output from the probe to check disorder of ceramic capacitor.
          It is not uncommon that testing result of digital capacitance meter is okay,But It show shorted reading when you check it with analogue meter."

          Is it really possible to test small ceramic disc capacitor with analogue...

          Modification of a Fluke multi meter that uses three AA batteries to use a 14500 lithium ion battery
          by sam_sam_sam
          I have had with regular AA batteries that leak this meter is expensive new I already replaced the battery battery clips once and the same thing happened again and I am tried of so it is getting modified to accommodate lithium ion batteries that are the same size excluding the positive terminal and removing the battery clips I will have enough room for the BMS protection board

          I going to put 3 lithium ion battery in parallel with the BMS protection board and a way to charge the battery externally and heat shrink the battery pack and use a JST connector so I easily remove the battery...

          Changing the scale of an analog meter
          by jorpec
          Hi

          I want to change the scale of an analog meter, to monitor the charge of an li-ion single cell, so the needle at the end would point 4.2 volts and the 0 on the meter would point 2.5 volts or so, i tried to add diodes or a zener in series with the meter but the changes of the ambient temperature also changes the voltage value on the meter
          I wonder how i can accomplish this so the meter would be precise at any temperature ?

          Thnaks

          How an incandescent light and a ESR meter ** friend**have a machine blowing fuses
          by sam_sam_sam
          About a month ago we had a transformer jumper wire that burned in two different places between two transformers caused over $200 thousand dollars worth of damage to VFD drives at least 10 of them and a memory card and quite a few power supply as well

          Now we have most of the equipment that got damaged back up and running except a feeder that has issues and we are waiting for some parts for

          Now we also have another piece of equipment that was blowing fuses on the 110 volt controller switch circuit with the ā€œEā€ stops and one switching power (24 volt) supply and a transformer...

          EDMI ATLAS MK10 Electronic Meter Discussion
          by Stephan Mathers
          Greetings, new guy here but always interested in the crazy universe of modding

          We just finished construction of around 25 vacation houses, all inside the same private area.
          Each house has 3phase power , and we bought an atlas MK10 meter for each house (25 meters total ! )

          The metering on a per-house basis is done privately. Its not done by a utility company. The utility company will only charge us for the total consumption of all 25 houses together.

          Id like to do a small modification on the firmware of our MK10 to make it easier identify each house's...
