Kyocera FS-1010 service manual

The AC power for the heater is applied in one of the five variations of the zero cross switchings as shown in Figure 4-3-6. Each variation is constituted with the unit of ten positive and negative envelops in five cycles, as obtained by varying the duration during which TRC1 turns on. The heater lamp is energized while TRC1 is kept on; the heater lamp is turned off while TRC1 is kept off. For example, the duty cycle (the period of a cycle during which the heater lamp is turned on) is maximum for variation No.1 as the heater lamp is energized for the whole envelops. The duty cycle is 60 % for variation No.3 as the heater lamp is energized for the 6 positive and negative envelops out of 10. The duty cycle is 0 since the heater lamp is kept turned off for the whole envelops.

CPU (U01) selectively switches among those variations for applying voltages to the heater lamp according to the THERMA signal which appears at pin #33 as feedback.

A fraction of THERMA is applied to pin #2 of comparator U04-1. The comparator maintains comparison of the potential at pin #2 and pin #3 which gives a reference for the possible anomaly in the heater temperature (bred by resistors R52 and R56). Should the voltage at pin #2 exceed that at pin #3, the level at pin #1 becomes low. Since pin #1 is wired to the output line for the HEAT signal, the HEAT signal is enforced to be low regardless the behavior of CPU (U01), thus preventing possible heat overrun. The LED indicator “Call service 6110” error is then displayed.
