# Panasonic CT-27SL15 CRT RGB mod

This is a work in progress tutorial.

Other than the fact the resistor values are slightly different the RGB mod should be similar to Toshiba 27AF45

# Theory

Sometimes it is nice to know the theory behind the mod. I have put this on a separate page. This shows how the various resistor values are calculated.

READ THE RGB MODDING THEORY

# Performing the mod

# STEP 1: Remove the following components

Remove RGB resistors to ground

• R141 (560Ω)
• R142 (560Ω)
• R143 (560Ω)

# STEP 2: Disable VM (optional)

You can easily disable by disconnecting the VM cable on the neck board.

# STEP 3: Connect RGB and blanking wires

# STEP 4: Connect Sync, Audio and Ground wire

Connect the SIGNAL, AUDIO RIGHT, AUDIO LEFT, GROUND wires

# STEP 5: Prepare your RGB mux circuit

Below mod uses the RGB mux board. This is optional, but will make your mod easier and stable. You can also create the circuit presented in the schematics above without the board. Please also checkout the precalculated resistor values.

Buy your RGB mux board

M61283FP can handle a peak to peak voltage of 0.7 in the external RGB lines.

Depending on the RGB/OSD stock resistors your CRT has, use the below inline resistors.

# STEP 6: Attach the female SCART connector to TV

Creating a SCART cutout and mounting it is an art. I have a dedicated section for it.
