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 component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially 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 build-up 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 electrical change sufficient to damage ES devices. 6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective 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. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together or your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES devices.

Each precaution in this manual should be followed during servicing. Components identified with the IEC symbol in the parts list are special significance to safety. When replacing a component identified with

, use only the replacement parts designated, or parts with the same ratings or resistance, wattage, or voltage that are designated in the parts list in this manual. Leakage-current or resistance measurements must be made to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before retuming the product to the customer.

Before returning the unit to the user, perform the following safety checks :

1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are not pinched or that hardware is not lodged between the chassis and other metal parts in the unit. 2. Be sure that any protective devices such as nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpapers, cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment covers or shields, isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical insulators, etc. Which were removed for the servicing are properly re-installed. 3. Be sure that no shock hazard exists ; check for leakage current using Simpson Model 229 Leakage Tester, standard equipment item No. 21641, RCA Model WT540A or use alternate method as follows : Plug the power cord directly Into a 120 volt AC receptacle (do not use an Isolation Transformer for this test). Using two clip leads, connect a 1500 ohms, 10watt Resistor paralleled by a 0.15uF capacitor, in series with all exposed metal cabinet parts and a known earth ground, such as a water pipe or conduit. Use a VTVM or VOM with 1000 ohms per volt, or higher sensitivity to measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor. (See diagram) Move the resistor connection to each exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis (antenna, metal, cabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts, escutcheon, etc.) and measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor. (This test should be performed with the 0.35 volt RMS or more is excessive and indicates a potential shock hazard which must be corrected before returning the unit to the owner.

Intermittent buzzing in tuner Letters flash in the channel indicator display and digital audio stops

Processor Reset
In the rare case where the unit's operation or the displays seem abnormal, the cause may involve the erratic operation of the system's memory or microprocessor. To correct this problem, first unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet and wait at least three minutes. After the pause, reconnect the AC power cord and check the unit's operation. If the system still malfunctions, a system reset may clear the problem. To clear the AVR 210's entire system memory including tuner presets, output level settings,

delay times and speaker configuration data, first put the unit in Standby by pressing the System Power Control button 2. Next, press and hold the Tone Mode 6 and the FM Mode Selector @ buttons for three seconds. The unit will turn on automatically and display the RESET message in the Main Information Display X. Note that once you have cleared the memory in this manner, it is necessary to reestablish all system configuration settings and tuner presets. NOTE: Resetting the processor will erase any configuration settings you have made for

speakers, output levels, surround modes, digital input assignments as well as the tuner presets. After a reset the unit will be returned to the factory presets, and all settings for these items must be reentered. If the system is still operating incorrectly, there may have been an electronic discharge or severe AC line interference that has corrupted the memory or microprocessor. If these steps do not solve the problem, consult an authorized Harman Kardon service depot.

Troubleshooting tips and solutions to common service problems

Isolating audio problems in an AVR receiver
Using 6/8 Direct In
The following charts are used to help the tech quickly isolate audio problems in an AVR receiver. Use the following procedures to help find what is working, then to quickly locate the problem area.

Equipment needed:
1 set of (RCA) Y adaptors. Function/signal generator. Oscilloscope.

Models covered: AVR210 AVR310 AVR220 AVR320 AVR520 AVR225 AVR125 AVR525 AVR130 AVR230 AVR330 AVR430 AVR630

Procedure:
1) Do a factory reset of the receiver. (This will eliminate any common micro processor problems.) Reset List can be found in this service manual. Print the block diagram from the service manual. With no inputs or speakers attached to the AVR turn on the receiver and turn the volume all the way down. Turn unit off. Hook up an oscillator to the 6/8 Direct in jacks using the Y adaptors. Adjust the oscillator to about 0db (.775Volts RMS). Hook up an oscilloscope to monitor the line out jacks. Or, if there are no line out (preamp out) jacks monitor the input to the power amps or the speaker outs. (AVR125, 225, 130 do not have preamp out jacks) Turn the AVR on. Select 6 or 8 direct in, depending on the receiver. Slowly turn the volume control up until you can easily measure the voltage at the line out jacks. ( -40 to -25db )

9) At this point you will be able to check and assure all output levels are the same.

10) IF THE OUTPUT LEVELS ARE NOT THE SAME STOP! Go no further. At this point you will need to use the charts to see where you are losing your signal. The chart shows the analog signal flow from the input jacks to the output jacks. 11) If the output levels are the same check the power out stage at the speaker out jacks. 12) If you find the levels at the speaker out jacks are OK, your problem will be in the DSP part of the receiver. Congratulations! You have now eliminated 90% of the electronics in the AVR and confirmed that the problem is in the DSP section.
