SERVICE PROCEDURES
HT-R820THX
1. Replacing the fuses
This symbol located near the fuse indicates that the
fuse used is show operating type, For continued protection against
fire hazard, replace with same type fuse, For fuse rating, refer to
the marking adjacent to the symbol.
Ce symbole indique que le fusible utilise est e lent.
Pour une protection permanente, n'utiliser que des fusibles de meme
type. Ce demier est indique la qu le present symbol est apposre.
3. To initialize the unit
This device employs a microprocessor to perform various
functions and operations. If interference generated by an external
power supply, radio wave, or other electrical sauce results in accident
which causes the specified operations and functions to operate
abnormally.
To perform a result, please follow the procedure below.
1. Press and the hold down the VIDEO 1 button, then press the
STANDBY/ON button when the unit is Power On.
2. After "Clear " is displayed, the preset memory and each mode
stored in the memory, are initialized and will return to the
factory settings.

2. Safety-check out
After correcting the original service problem perform the
following safety check before releasing the set to the customer
Connect the insulating-resistance tester between the plug of
power supply cord and terminal GND on the back panel.
Specifications: More than 10Mohm at 500V
The HT-R820THX uses a battery-less memory backup
system in order to retain radio presets and other settings
when it's unplugged or in the case of a power failure.
Although no batteries are required, the HT-R820THX
must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the
backup system.
Once it has been charged, the HT-R820THX will retain
the settings for several weeks, although this depends on
the environment and will be shorter in humid climates.

OPERATION CHECK-1
DC VOLTAGE DETECTION PROTECTORS
HT-R820THX
1. Set the unit to test mode " Test-4-00 " .
1-1. Press and the hold down the CD button , then press the STANDBY/ON button when the unit is Power On.
1-2. Press the VIDEO 3 button, while the " Test - _ " is shown.
Unit will be in the state of " Test-4-00 ".
2. Repeat and press SPEAKERS B to the " Test-4-20 " is shown.
3. Check that the " Protect OK " is shown and speaker relays are turn Off.
If a circuit is failure, the " Protect NG " is shown.
4. Check about the " Test 4-21 " to " Test 4-31 " one by one.
Refer to <Fig-1> about the operation method.
5. Press the STANDBY/ON to power Off. (Exit the test mode.)
<Note1>
In test mode " Test 4-20 " to " Test 4-31 ", DC voltage is outputted from DSP IC a pre-amplifier section, and it is inputted into a
power amplifier circuit.
Therefore an external input is unnecessary in check.
<Note2>
Don't connect speakers or any load.
Don't short speaker terminals.

1. Set the unit to test mode " Test-4-00 " .
1-1. Press and the hold down the CD button , then press the STANDBY/ON button when the unit is Power On.
1-2. Press the VIDEO 3 button, while the " Test - _ " is shown.
Unit will be in the state of " Test-4-00 ".
2. Repeat and press SPEAKERS B to the " Test-4-32 " is shown.
3. Connect the road resistor 3 ohms to the speaker terminal.
4. Check that the " Protect " is not shown.
5. Connect the road resistor 1.5 ohms to the speaker terminal.
6. Check that the " Protect " is shown, and speaker relays are turn off.
7. Check about the FL, FR, C, SL, SR and SB channel one by one.
8. Press the STANDBY/ON to power Off. (Exit the test mode)
<Note1>
In test mode " Test 4-32 ", the pulse waveform is outputted from DSP IC on the pre-amplifier section, and it is inputted into
a power amplifier circuit. Refer to <Fig-1>.
Therefore an external input is unnecessary in check.
<Note2>
Don't connect speakers or any load.
Don't short speaker terminals.
Don't check two or more channels simultaneously.
