Sigma AV7000 Help Needed asap

Post by chempop »

Just got one in the mail today from a member here. I'm very new with this shit so please be gentle with me...



Not sure what the screw adjustment is for, its labeled "CBC"

Next item of question, the thing to the right of the power switch?

I really appreciate it!

110v/220v switch is underneath, inside. Turn it upside down, get a torch, and have a look.

Also here's a pic of the underside (yeah, I've messed with the brightness/contrast for clarity). 110v/220v switch is dead centre.

The broken knob is the stereo/mono switch, next to the headphone jack. Left is stereo.

The dial above the two controller ports is to adjust the overall brightness.

Right of the power is a +/-5 screw to be used with the provided screwdriver.

Top middle adjusts sharpness.

About the 5v/-5v, is it dangerous to change that while a PCB is running? What about if I play a board at the wrong voltage, is it dangerous to the PCB? I've seen pics of blown fingerboards,edge connectors, fried chips on PCBs, etc, don't want to take any risks. Thanks!
