7-2.  Operation
Figure 9-23  shows the circuit diagram. Supposing high volt- age rises abnormally due to some reason, pulse at pin 9 of T461 also rises, and detection voltage ED rectified by D471 and C471 in X-RAY  protection circuit rises. When ED rises, emitter voltage of Q464 divided by R459 and R462 becomes higher than [zener voltage (6.2V) of D458 + Q464 VBE ]. This causes Q464 turns on to supply base current to Q463.
Then Q463 turns on. By this Tr6 and Tr6 turn on to make ON/OFF pulse at pin 7of QA01 in low level, Q846 and Q845 turns off, then relay SR81 turns off. Tr6 and Tr7 are in thy- ristor-connection,  and 5V of power holds protection opera- tion until main power switch is turned off. During circuit operation, power LED near main power switch blinks turn on and off in red.
Caution:
• To restart TV set, repair failure first.
