So I've finally gotten 2 700 DWINs to work on. One powers up fine, the other one is dead. On the working one however, when I press 'menu' according to the manual I'm supposed to get the main lmenu with 9 options listed so I can converge, etc.

On this one however, when I press 'menu', I only get option 9 on the screen. Where did the rest of the menu go? What am I missing?

Thanks!

Here Curt, try this!

Once the unit is delivered to an end user you may wish to lock out most of the major adjustment settings.This will limit the amount of adjustments a user may make, protecting critical convergence and geometryadjustments.To lock the menus and enable menu access protection press “2” while the system is displaying the main -SetUp- Menu.This will bring the highlight down to item 2, “Menu Access”, where “Enabled” is normally highlighted on theright side of the menu. This indicates that full access to all menus is allowed.To “Protect” the menus press the button, “Type the PASSWORD and then press ‘ENTER’ ”, messagewill appear at the top of the screen. A single cursor block will also appear at the right side of the “MenuAccess” text line.You should now enter the password that will enable access to the menus. It may be up to nine alphanumericcharacters, including upper and lower case letters. Use the and buttons on the remoteto scroll through the letters, and the and buttons to move across the nine letter field once a character isentered. When the password is entered, press the “ENTER” button on the remote. The system will ask you topress “ENTER” a second time to confirm the password.Once the password is entered the only menu functions available will be Brightness, Contrast and CenterConvergence from the Main Menu. Power On setting, Menu Access, menu Time-out, White Balance andColor Temperature adjustments will also be permitted from the Set Up Menu.To return to full menu access, press “MENU”, and then “9” to reach the Set Up menu. Press “2” to access theMenu Control System. Noting that “Protected” will be highlighted, press to indicate that you wish toenable the menu control system. Once you press , the message will appear at the top of the screen askingyou to enter the password established when the menus were restricted. Enter the password using the andbuttons on the remote to scroll through the letters, and the and buttons to move across the nine letterfield once a character is entered. When the password is entered, press the “ENTER” button on the remote.The system will ask you to press “ENTER” a second time to confirm the password.Once the menus system is unlocked, the word “Enabled” will be highlighted, and the restricted menuselections will once again be available.NOTE: Remember that passwords for this system are case sensitive. Any password created using upperand lower case letters must be repeated EXACTLY as it was originally entered in order to unlock the system.NOTE: To overwrite any previously saved password enter the following code “A,A,A,A,A”

Yep, same thing. I gave up and am working on the dead motherboard. Found some burnt resistors, but no shorts to speak of. THe H voltage to the output section pulses, but it feeds a bunch of other circuits as well. NO obivous problems, I've spent 3 hours on it, so I'm stopping and moving onto something else.
