Sony VPL-VW50 – How to access Service mode – White balance adjustment – Power supply circuit diagram
Sony VPL-VW50 Service Mode Setting
1. Set the “Screen” of "Preferences” to “On” in the MENU.
2. MENU is erased.
3. Press the keys in the following order:
“ENTER” > “ENTER” > “LEFT” > “ENTER”
4. The message “Do you wish to enter into the SERVICE MODE? Yes No” will be displayed.
5. Select “Yes”.
Note
When leaving the FACTORY MODE,
“Do you wish to return to the USER MODE? Yes No” will be displayed. Select “Yes”.
Note that when the items (W/B, Device Adjust) that can be adjusted in the Factory mode are adjusted and stored in memory, they are saved in NVM and the factory
default data will be lost. Be sure to perform "Save to memory" after entering and exiting the Gamma adjustment mode. If the values are changed in the Gamma adjustment mode and the original values cannot be restored, turn off the power to the unit and turn it on again. The UF data does not change even if the mode for Advanced Iris in Cinema Black Pro in Picture Adjust is changed without performing "Save to memory". When "Save to memory" is performed at that time, the UF data of each Iris mode will be overwritten and lost.
