==Service Mode==
{{BA-6 Service Mode}}
 
===Entering Service Mode===
To enter service mode, follow this sequence while the TV is in standby (power off):
 
# Press '''DISPLAY''' on the remote
# Press '''5''' on the remote
# Press '''VOLUME +''' on the remote
# Press '''POWER''' on the remote
 
Each button must be pressed within one second of the previous button. The service mode display will appear on screen showing adjustment categories and values.
 
===Important Notes===
* Always record original values before making changes
* Only adjust settings if you understand their function
* Some adjustments are critical for proper operation and safety
* After replacing certain components (especially deflection or high voltage related), specific adjustments must be performed
* The service mode is separate from the self-diagnostic mode
 
===Service Mode Display===
When service mode is active, the screen displays:
* '''Mode''' - Current adjustment mode (e.g., \"service\")
* '''Category''' - Current category (e.g., \"defl\", \"video\", \"audio\")
* '''Item''' - Current adjustment item name
* '''Item Data''' - Current value for the selected item
* '''Signal Type''' - Current video signal type (e.g., \"ntsc\")
 
===Navigation Controls===
 
====Remote Control Functions====
* '''1''' or '''4''' - Select different adjustment items (move up/down through items)
* '''3''' or '''6''' - Change the data value (increase/decrease the current value)
* '''MUTING''' then '''ENTER''' - Save changes to memory (LED turns green then red)
* '''8''' then '''ENTER''' - Initialize/reset current category to default values
* '''0''' - Not used for service adjustments
* '''POWER''' (off then on) - Exit service mode
 
===Memory Operations===
 
====Saving Adjustments====
After making any adjustment:
# Press '''MUTING''' (the status indicator will turn green)
# Press '''ENTER''' (the indicator will turn red confirming the write)
 
The display will show \"write\" when the memory operation is in progress.
 
====Initializing Settings====
To reset a category to factory defaults:
# Navigate to the desired category
# Press '''8'''
# Press '''ENTER'''
 
This should be done when adjusting IDs 0-6 or when replacing IC002 (memory chip).
 
===Verifying Saved Settings===
To confirm adjustments were saved properly:
# Unplug the AC power cord
# Plug the power cord back in
# Re-enter service mode
# Navigate to the adjusted items to verify the values were retained
 
===Exiting Service Mode===
Turn off the TV using the power button on either the remote control or the main unit. The TV will exit service mode and return to normal operation.
 
===Adjustment Categories===
The service mode contains multiple categories of adjustments:
* '''DEF''' (Deflection) - Geometry adjustments (H/V size, position, linearity, etc.)
* '''16:9''' - Wide mode adjustments
* '''VP1''' - Video processor settings (color, brightness, contrast, sharpness, AKB)
* '''VP2''' - Additional video processing (VM, color killer, aperture, gamma)
* '''VIVID/STD/MOVIE/SPORTS''' - Picture mode presets
* '''Y''' - Y/C separation settings
* '''C''' - Chroma decoder settings
* '''RGB''' - RGB drive and cutoff adjustments
* '''DEFD''' - Additional deflection parameters
* '''OTHER''' - Miscellaneous settings
* '''OSD''' - On-screen display settings
* '''S/W AKB''' - Software auto kinescope bias
* '''AUDIO''' - Audio processor settings
* '''MICRO''' - Microprocessor settings
* '''FEATURE''' - Feature ID settings
 
===Self-Diagnostic Mode===
The unit also has a separate self-diagnostic function (see the Self-Diagnostic section for details on accessing error codes and diagnostic information).
 
===Related Adjustments===
For specific adjustment procedures (white balance, geometry, focus, etc.), refer to the service manual sections on set-up adjustments and circuit adjustments.
