REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

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.

USB to UART Bridge Adapter (FT2232D chipset series)

To communicate with TV product for debugging, adjustment and so… it’s required suitable 0.5V Serial Interface like following snapshot (further details are described on below sections):

Test and Alignment Specification for NT63 Series (v0 01) 170612

All tests and measurements mentioned hereafter have to be carried out at a normal mains voltage (220 ~ 240 VAC)
All voltages have to be measured with respect to ground, unless otherwise stated
All final tests have to be done on a complete set including LCD panel in a room with temperature of 25+/-7°C
The Picture Performance assessment such as White Balance (luminance and colour temperature) has to be performed into subdued lighted room after at least 45min of warm-up in order to avoid any temperature drift influence (colorimetric vs. time)

PCB-SKD Assembly: Test & Alignment

Pre-Conditions and DC/DC Check
Before power-on, please check the board according to the relevant block diagram and circuit diagram, and make sure that no serious issue or mistake can destroy the board. For example, the output of DC/DC and LDO should not be shorted to ground.
Supply a suited voltage and power-on, then check the voltage according to the relevant block diagram, circuit diagram and voltage specification.
For example, check SoC voltage (3V3, 1V8, CORE_1V2, 5V, 5VSTB, etc.), DDR voltage (DDR-1V5), audio amplifier voltage (12V), etc...
Measurements should fulfil specification within ±5% tolerances.

LR or PR step. ---Only test
In case of starting from blanked flash / eMMC, it’s necessary to use “Blank upgrade” to update the SW.

MP Step
In case of starting from blanked flash, it’s necessary to write “ V8-N563T01-LF1VXXX _emmc_writer.bin” file via factory copy in advance.

OAD Stream
To manage quicker mass reflashing on predefined DVB Channel, some licensed IBL tools ('xxx2lli.exe', 'lli2dsm.exe',dsmmerge.exe …) from Intel byte Inc. might be necessary to create appropriate DVB SSU image. Over some predefine settings such as repeated data block insertion, null packets size, … that are controllable in configuration file, here below are mandatory OUI entries structure to prepare DSM-CC carousel image format:

export CUST_OAD_OUI
export CUST_OAD_HW_MODEL
export CUST_OAD_HW_VERSION
export CUST_OAD_SW_MODEL
export CUST_OAD_SW_VERSION

0x001C50
0x5395
0x0000
0x0001
0x00
..

OAD reflashing is managed within 4 steps operation: multiplex detection, DVB transfer, flashing and warm-start.

UART & IR Parser
To use both UART and/or IR parser, TV has to be set in Factory mode with its USB port well connected to suitable UART device or an IR emitter device correctly facing up TV (see below “Product Assembly - section 2.0” how to activate “Factory key”).
The UART parser engine is enabled by sending following command “0xE2” from host to TV within following presets 115200/8/n/1.
Once initialized, “PS” caption is toggle displayed on bottom left screen (“S” like Serial).
To communicate with TV depending on SIACP revision layout implementation, you need to fulfil UART/IR commands protocol and format described on enclosed SIACP requirements document.

Project ID Modification
There are different IDs stored in the eMMC depending on different Panels settings and Models features, but there’s only one key branching Project ID that includes all. So, it’s not recommended to modify Panel ID with Hyper terminal as other ID features may not change.
To modify Project ID, you need to go through “Factory menu -> Other -> Project ID -> Project ID”, then spin left or right with RCU “◄/►” keys to chose suitable ID (Project name is dynamically refreshed).It is necessary to press “OK” key for saving the setting.

“How to change Project ID with RCU”

See below is the Project ID table for reference:

Functional Test
Once the boards (chassis, KB, IR, PSU…) and the panel are well interconnected, plug all external generator devices to relevant below inputs/outputs using respective test patterns format to check picture and sound quality:

Audio tones can be defined by the factory (ie: 1KHz & 3KHz, sweep …).

Picture video formats can be changed by the factory according to their own standard.

AD Calibration Test
As the A/D self-calibration mechanism is built-in Soc, there’s no any ADC to perform.

DDC & EDID & T-Link Test
The E-EDID data structures are according to VESA Enhanced EDID 1.3 (and EIA/CEA-861B for HDMI). CEA Timing Extension structure has been extended to support all 3D capable timings.
All HDMI structures have their own BIN profile which are part of main SW and uploaded at power-on into soc chipset:
For EDID check, it’s needed to check whether the correct EDID is downloaded by checking corresponding EDID NVM Checksum or read them out to check bit by bit if it is in line with the released EDID bin file.

HDCP Test
For HDCP compliancy, it’s needed to check whether the HDCP key has been well set by connecting suitable generator.

CI+ Key Upgrade, Activation and Test

See “How to upgrade CI Key using USB”, “How to upgrade ESN Key using USB”, “How to upgrade HDCP key & HDCP2.0 key using USB”

LAN and WLAN Test (MAC address and Device or User ID codes)
Here are some representative codes examples:

MAC Address Upgrade (IPv6)

MAC can be set using UART commands described on enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v3.9).
Writing MAC command <0xB3>, Data length <6>, Data type <HEXA> (see below command example from above MAC code) <AA 0B B3 5C 36 B8 A8 9D CC 36 78>

Device ID (DID)

Purpose is to allow Other Newtork Download (OND) and further specific Services via dedicated abroad portal (UK tbc).4 At final, when TV may ask for portal connection, there’ll be Device ID matching control sent by host (TV client) to ensure total integrity.

For such, specific DID (40 bytes) needs to be paired and overwritten into memory for internal client encryption.
All DID and MAC codes have to be download from portal local service via suitable factory workstation LAN system.
Then during production lot, it’s necessary to send/write all those codes to each TV.
DID codes can only be set using UART commands described above on enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v3.9).
 Writing Device ID command <0xB2>, Data length <32>, Data type <ASCII> (see below command example from above DID code)
<AA 25 B2 42 45 34 46 32 35 35 42 42 44 31 30 36 42 43 38 46 38 30 36 41 45 34 35 36 33 35 30 44 39 31 46 48 93>

LAN Test

A rough LAN test can be done by connecting DHCP server to TV’s RJ45 and check that IP, subnet mask, DNS, …
addresses are visible on “Settings
à NetworkàInternet connection(On)àIP settings”.
More in-depth test can be performed faster using suitable UART/IR commands following SIACP requirements. SW will internally manage Network ID (NID) flag controlling all MAC/DID/UID integrity to facilitate PA screening further.

It’s not necessary to check video and audio from DLNA server.

Factory Menu
Follow the below steps to pop-up the Factory menu in case of “Factory hotkey” is disabled:
Press RCU “MENU” key to display Setting menu
Select Picture
Scroll down to “Contrast” item
Press the subsequence RCU keys “
9”, “7”, “3” and “5
In case of “Factory hotkey” is enabled, just press RCU “Return” key
 to pop-up again the Factory menu.
The status of “Factory Key” can be changed in “Factory Menu->Hotkey”

Factory Captions Description
While “Factory hotkey” is enabled, there’s some toggled display information (~2s) relative to SW, Project ID, CI+, Network ID to facilitate 100% quick screening without accessing to whatever else menu:

Main SW Ver
Project ID (ID)
ERG(PVR)
CI Key Activation flag (CI+ key)
MID(Internet infor for factory)
P (Production/Factory mode flag) / S (Factory UART Parser mode flag) / W (Warm-Up mode flag)

Warm-up Test
Following TCL standard and practices, it’s required minimum 15min of Warm-Up that can be considered as Burn-In.
Additional Aging for White Balance alignment is no more necessary due to consistent Picture Performance with Cloning usage.
This function is accessible by selecting “Factory menu
àWARM UP”, pressing RCU “OK/►” key and then leaving Factory menu by pressing “Exit” key. To release/disable Burn-in mode, it’s just required to press “Menu” button from local keyboard. Other faster methods via UART/IR commands are available on enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v5.4).

White Balance Touch-Up (Golden sample)
As some colour coordinates discrepancies can be noticed from panel batches to others, it may necessary to perform slight touch-up.
For Colour temperature adjustment, switch TV on leading HDMI input where should be connected suitable generator providing following format 1280x720p@60Hz test pattern. A 32 steps grey scale is recommended to assess relevant calorimetric tracking and low/high light saturation points.

Ensure that TV’s picture enhance is off.
Ensure that TV is in Factory mode to access to ”White Balance” adjustment submenu, then scroll down to toggle off “Pic. Enhance” flag.
WB Normal is the first mode which is adjusted in HDMI source
the next are HDMI warm and cool mode.
Warm and Cool Tone are relatives to Normal mode. WB adjust need to fix default G Gain .Offset registers needn’t to be adjusted.
“Gain” registers set need to be adjusted at 70IRE.

Targets and Tolerances for all inputs
(According to company uniform LED color temperature standard of panel)
The measured and adjustable parameters should be mainly “x”, “y” coordinates.
The White Balance alignment should be performed using a well calibrated and contact less analyzer (ex: Minolta CA210 or CA310). The analyzer may not touch the screen surface, and measurement must be performed in a dark environment keeping the probe(s) at 90+/-2° from the panel centre.
The results should fulfil specification for each TV set offered by R&D and below tolerances::

Important: If measurements are performed on whatever else LED panel with Minolta CA210, it’s required to calibrate additional channel (ex: CH01) using relative following offsets (CH00 remains for CCFL panel): +0.002 for “x” and +0.012 for “y”.

Cloning
Once a TV is well aligned and prepared (channels maps, volume, picture presets…), user can prepare golden clone image that can be copied on demand to all further TV production lot of same TV. To access cloning function, you can select “Factory menu àUSB Clone && Update”, Scroll down to “TV to USB” or “USB to TV” and press RCU “OK/►” key to process. 4 BIN images will be created, overwritten or read on USB stick (pen drive) depending on chosen template like following: “database\database\***.db”. These files need to be used strictly with MT5655 SoC platform as depending on SW structure.
Other faster access methods via UART/IR commands are available on enclosed SIACP requirements.

High Pot and Insulating Resistance Tests
At the end of the process, a “High Voltage” and an “Insulating Resistance” tests are required to fulfil Safety Electrical requirements (CEI 65065).
High Voltage Withstanding requirements
▪ Insulating Resistance requirements
“Voltage” > 3500 VAC - “Voltage” > 500 VDC
“Max Leakage Current” > 10 mA - “Threshold Min” > 4M Ω
“Test Time” > 3 sec - “Test Time” > 2 sec

SHOP-END Test
At final process stage, it’s necessary to perform “Reset shop” before any packing to leave Factory mode and restore User default presets.
This function is accessible by selecting “Factory menu - 
Reset Shop”, then pressing RCU “OK/►” key. Other faster methods via UART/IR commands are available on enclosed SIACP requirements.

DIGITAL STEP METER ELECTRIC CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

 This circuitry measures the distance walked during a walk. The hardware is located in a small box placed in your pants pocket and the display is conceived as follows: The leftmost display D2 (the most significant digit) shows 0 to 9 km. and its point is always further to separate km. from hm. The rightmost display D1 (least significant digit) shows hundreds of meters and its point lights up after every 50 meters walk. The beeper (excluded) signals every unit count, repeating every two steps.


A normal step has been calculated to cover about 78 centimeters, so the LED signaling 50 meters lights up after 64 steps (or 32 mercury switch operations), the display shows 100 meters after 128 steps and so on. When the battery is low, the display lights up only when requested by pressing P2. Accidental resetting of the counters is ruled out because both buttons must work together to reset the circuit. 


Obviously this is not a precision meter, but its degree of approximation has been found to be good for this type of device. In any case, the most important thing to do is to properly place the mercury switch inside the box and set its degree of tilt. IC1A and IC1B form a monostable multivibrator, providing some degree of freedom from excessive bounce of the mercury switch. Consequently, a pure square pulse is fed to IC2, which is divided by 64. Q2 controls the point segment of LED D1 every 32 pulses counted by IC2. Either IC3 and IC4 divide by 10 and control the displays.

 P1 resets the counters and P2 turns on the displays. IC1C generates a rectangular audio frequency, which is switched on for a short time with each monostable count. Q1 turns on the piezo sounder and SW2 allows you to mute the beeper.
