REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

Firmware update procedure
Upgrading with the ISP_TOOL
Hardware connecting
You can update the software through a special tool (as following)
Connect the Debug board to the TV use VGA interface or the RS232 (4 pin), the other USB port to the computer.
Install the ISP_TOOL4.5.0.4---- only for the first time update.
1 The software is upgraded by a burning tool- ISP_TOOL.exe
2 Find the folder where the ISP_TOOL4.5.0.4 lies in
There are three folders/files in this folder together.
DLPORTIO.dll and FTD2XX.DLL must be in the same folder
3 Double click the ISP_TOOL4.5.0.4 icon, and then a dialog window will show as below.
4 Click the” Config “button. And then a dialog window will show.
Draw on the front of “Use USB”
Port Type setting is USB
Base Addr setting is 0x38C
ISP Slave Address choose 0x92
Serial Debug Slave Address choose 0xB2

5 Click the “Connect”button if appear the following figure, It indicates that the ISP_TOOL has connected.(According to the tv set,”Device Type” maybe different.)
If appear the following figure It indicates that the ISP_TOOL has not connected. Please click
the“DisCon”button and “Connect”button to connect..
6 Click the“Read ”button, Choose the correct update file.
7 After the update file has been chosen successfully.
Click the“Auto”button and choose parameters as following.
8 Click the “Run” button and wait update end.
If show any error message then do “Dis Con” >> “Connect”, and click the “Run” button again, till show the dialog window.
Upgrading with the USB
Software can update with USB device:
1. Copy the “*.BIN” file such as “MERGE.BIN” to the root directory of a USB disk.
2. Insert the USB disk into the USB slot of the TV SET.
3. Press “Menu” button and call up User OSD Menu, choose "Channel ">” Software Update(USB)” item. (Note 1)

1. In some TV SET, ”Software Update(USB)” item maybe in “OPTION” menu.
2. After updating, you must confirm the software version in the “Factory Menu” and you'd better do a “Unprotected Clear" in the “Factory Menu”
Power assign:
The Power only has +12V_IN output other voltages are converted from +12V_IN.
a. 5Vstb is converted by N19 from +12V_IN 5VAIN and 5V_USB are converted by N43 from 5Vstb.
b. 3.3Vstb and 3.3V_mcu as standby power supply for standby mode.
c. 3.3V_Normal supply power for N5 and Main IC N46 is converted by N3 from 5VAIN; 2.5V_Normal supply power for N46 is converted by N13 from 5VAIN; VDDC(1.28V) supply power for main IC(core voltage) is converted by N1 from 5VAIN;1.8VA supply power for N41(DDR),N45(DDR) is converted by N15 from 5VAIN.
e VCC_A supply power for N17(audio amplifier) is converted by N42 from +12V_IN; 5V_Tuner supply power for Tuner is converted by N16 from +12V; 5V_USB supply power for USB interface.
f VCC-Panel supply power for Panel is converted by N14 from +12V_IN
RF Signal
Digital intermediate frequency and simulation intermediate frequency are processed by Tuner (U42) from RF Signal. Transport Stream is demodulated directly by main IC from Digital intermediate frequency then enter PCMCIA card to decipher later return the main IC. The simulation intermediate signal that has passed amplification and surface acoustic wave filter to get intermediate frequency enters the main IC. After processed by main IC, next the video signal is processed by SCALER output LVDS signal.to panel . The audio signal is processed and the Audio amplified to the Speakers.
Control Process:
The Power only has 12V(+12V_IN) output , other voltages are converted from 12V(+12V_IN). N43 and N42 can interrupt other voltages while standby, only reserve standby 5V(5Vstb) and standby 12V(+12V_IN). as following. When TV Power on , PWR-ON/OFF Signal is Low level, 5VAIN Power supply normally ; otherwise when TV standby , N43 is shut off , 5VAIN Power _supply is low.
+12V standby signal control as similar as 5VAIN
Power on, the Panel _Backlight and Brightness are control by the main board . the PIN 4 of XP2 is BL_ON/OFF, the high or low level control the BL_ON/OFF; the PIN 3 of XP2 is BL_ brightness Adjust, through control the level high or low to control the BL_ brightness.
