Technical Descriptions
Specification of KEY for DTCP-IP, WMDRM and Widevine
General information:
1. NAND Flash (IC8900) for spare parts has the seed of KEY for each DTCP-IP for DLNA, WMDRM for Netflix and Widevine for CinemaNow.
2. The final KEY data will be generated by Main IC (IC8000) when SELF CHECK was done and are stored in both Main IC (IC8000) and NAND Flash (IC8900).
Replacement of ICs:
When Main IC is replaced, NAND Flash should be also replaced with new one the same time.
When NAND Flash is replaced, Main IC is not necessary to be replaced the same time.
After the replacement of IC, SELF CHECK should be done to generate the final KEY data.
How to SELF CHECK: While pressing [VOLUME ( - )] button on the main unit, press [MENU] button on the remote control for more than 3 seconds.
TV will be forced to the factory shipment setting after this SELF CHECK.

How to Exit:
Disconnect AC plug from wall outlet.
How to confirm:
If the abnormal picture is displayed, go into LCD Panel test mode to display the several test patterns.
And then, judge by the following method.
Still abnormal picture is displayed: The cause must be in LCD Panel.
Normal picture is displayed: The cause must be in A board.
Remarks:
The test pattern is created by the circuit in LCD Panel.
In LCD Panel test mode, this test pattern is displayed unaffected by signal processing for RF or input signal.
If the normal picture is displayed, LCD Panel must be okay and the cause of failure must be in A board.
