OVERVIEW
1.1 Explanation
- HD PERSONAL VIDEO RECORDER & RECEIVER or PVR(Personal Video Recorder)-STB(Set-Top Box)
stores video and audio data into HDD with a specific form while receiving the ground wave of HD digital
broadcasting only or gives additional related services.
- Configuration
It uses IBM PPC405GP of PowerPC series as CPU, which supports PCI Bus I/F for PVR. VSB section exe-
cutes VSB decoding for ATSC signal with IF(44MHz) as an input entered from the tuner and transfers TP
data by decoding ATSC signal via VSB decoding to PVR section and HD-1.
MPEG Decoder supports MP@HL by using HD-1 and uses an external AC-3 Decoder.
PVR section stores only necessary data of TP data from the digital TV signal into HDD via IDE I/F chip.
The overall structure is as follows:
- System section
CPU, Main Memory, MPEG-II Decoder, AC-3 Decoder, Flash Memory, Audio DAC, CPLD
- PVR section

ard. These components are indicated by the letter “x” included in their compo-
nent designators and are required to maintain safe performance. No deviations
are allowed without prior approval by Zenith Electronics Corporation.
Circuit diagrams may occasionally differ from the actual circuit used. This way,
implementation of the latest safety and performance improvement changes
into the set is not delayed until the new service literature is printed.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to modify this product in any way. Never perform
customized installations without manufacturer’s approval. Unauthorized modi-
fications will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage or
user injury.
Service work should be performed only after you are thoroughly familiar with
these safety checks and servicing guidelines.

CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK
OF FIRE, REPLACE ALL FUSES WITH THE SAME TYPE AND
RATING AS MARKED NEAR EACH FUSE.
SERVICE INFORMATION
While servicing, use an isolation transformer for protection from AC line shock.
After the original service problem has been corrected, make a check of the fol-
lowing:
FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all components are positioned to avoid a possibility of adjacent
component shorts. This is especially important on items trans-ported to and
from the repair shop.
2. Verify that all protective devices such as insulators, barriers, covers, shields,
strain reliefs, power supply cords, and other hardware have been reinstalled
per the original design. Be sure that the safety purpose of the polarized line
plug has not been defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspected to discover possible cold solder joints, solder
splashes, or sharp solder points. Be certain to remove all loose foreign par-
ticles.
4. Check for physical evidence of damage or deterioration to parts and compo-
nents, for frayed leads or damaged insulation (including the AC cord), and
replace if necessary.
5. No lead or component should touch a high current device or a resistor rated
at 1 watt or more. Lead tension around protruding metal surfaces must be
avoided.
6. After reassembly of the set, always perform an AC leakage test on all
exposed metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna
terminals, handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without
danger of electrical shock. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANS-
FORMER DURING THIS TEST. Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per
volt or more sensitivity in the following manner: Connect a 1500 ohm, 10
watt resistor, paralleled by a .15 mfd 150V AC type capacitor between a
known good earth ground water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metal-
lic parts, one at a time. Measure the AC voltage across the combination of
1500 ohm resistor and .15 mfd capacitor. Reverse the AC plug by using a
non-polarized adaptor and repeat AC voltage measurements for each
exposed metallic part. Voltage measured must not exceed 0.75 volts RMS.
This corresponds to 0.5 milliamp AC. Any value exceeding this limit consti-
tutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. Never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely fitting
shelf space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated air flow.
2. Avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations where
dew is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor, etc.
3. Avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. The customer
should also avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that
might obstruct ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit must
follow the factory-approved mounting instructions. A product mounted to a
shelf or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent thickness in
spacers) to provide adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts or screws
used for fasteners must not touch any parts or wiring. Perform leakage tests
on customized installations.
5. Caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a tilt-
ed position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. A product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
Caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small cast-
ers across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. Caution customers against using extension cords. Explain that a forest of
extensions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous conse-
quences to home and family.

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: Before servicing the HD PERSONAL VIDEO
RECORDER & RECEIVER covered by this service data and
its supplements and addends, read and follow the SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS. NOTE: if unforeseen circumstances create
conflict between the following servicing precautions and any
of the safety precautions in this publications, always follow
the safety precautions.
Remember Safety First:
General Servicing Precautions
1. Always unplug the HD PERSONAL VIDEO RECORDER
& RECEIVER AC power cord from the AC power source
before:
(1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,
module, or any other assembly.
(2) Disconnecting or reconnecting any internal electrical
plug or other electrical connection.
(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an elec-
trolytic capacitor.
Caution: A wrong part substitution or incorrect
polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result
in an explosion hazard.
2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this HD PERSONAL
VIDEO RECORDER & RECEIVER or any of its assem-
blies.
3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean
electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact
cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner,
cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator.
Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication
of contacts is not required.
4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with
whitch instruments covered by this service manual might
be equipped.
5. Do not apply AC power to this HD PERSONAL VIDEO
RECORDER & RECEIVER and / or any of its electrical
assemblies unless all solid-state device heat sinks are
correctly installed.
6. Always connect the test instrument ground lead to an
appropriate ground before connecting the test instrument
positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground
lead last.
Insulation Checking Procedure
Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn
the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter (500V)
to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resis-
tance between each blade of the attachment plug and acces-
sible conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1M-
ohm.
Note 1: Accessible Conductive Parts include Metal panels,
Input terminals, Earphone jacks,etc.
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged
easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are
called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of
typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field
effect transistors and semiconductor chip components.
The following techniques should be used to help reduce the
incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor compo-
nent or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known
earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commer-
cially available discharging wrist strap device, which
should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to
applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES
devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such
as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or
exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder
ES devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some
solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static”can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES
devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can
generate an electrical charge sufficient to damage ES
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protec-
tive package until immediately before you are ready to
install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with
leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam,
aluminum foil,or comparable conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from
the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective
material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the
device will be installed.
Caution: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or
circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged
replacement ES devices. (Normally harmless motion such
as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting
of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static elec-
tricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)
