SERVICE MODE AND ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT PREPARATION
(1) This TV is adjusted by using REMOTE CONTROL UNIT.
(2) The adjustment using the REMOTE CONTROL UNIT is made on the basis of the initial setting values. The setting values which adjust the screen to the optimum condition can be different from the initial setting values.
(3) Make sure that connection is correctly made AC to AC power source.
(4) Turn on the power of the TV and measuring instruments for warming up for at least 30 minutes before starting adjustments.
(5) If the receive or input signal is not specified, use the most appropriate signal for adjustment.
(6) Never touch the parts (such as variable resistors, transformers and condensers) not shown in the adjustment items of this service adjustment.

FAILURE HISTORY
Failure history can be counted up to 9 times for each item. When the number exceeds 9, display will remain as 9. Failure history will be stored in the memory unless it has been deleted.
NOTE: Only SYN (with/without sync signals) will be neither counted nor stored.

POINTS TO NOTE WHEN USING THE SELF
CHECK FEATURE
In addition to circuit failures (abnormal operation), the following cases may also be diagnosed as "Abnormal" and counted.
(1) Temporary defective transmissions across circuits due to pulse interruptions.
(2) Misalignment in the on/off timing of power for I2C bus (Vcc) when turning on/off the main power.
Therefore, turn on the main power, and then wait for about 3 seconds before starting Self check. If recurrences are expected, ensure to clear (reset) the failure history and record the new diagnosis results.

PIXEL FAULT
There are three pixel faults - bright fault, dark fault and flicker fault - that are respectively defined as follows.
There are three pixel faults - bright fault, dark fault and flicker fault - that are respectively defined as follows.
BRIGHT FAULT
In this pixel fault, a cell that should not light originally is lighting on and off.
For checking this pixel fault, input ALL BLACK SCREEN and find out the cell that is lighting on and off.
DARK FAULT
In this pixel fault, a cell that should light originally is not lighting or lighting with the brightness twice as brighter as originally lighting.
For checking this pixel fault, input 100% of each R/G/B colour and find out the cell that is not lighting.
FLICKER FAULT
In the pixel fault, a cell that should light originally or not light originally is flashing on and off.
For checking this pixel fault, input ALL BLACK SCREEN signal or 100% of each RGB colour and find out the cell that is flashing on and off.
