mains voltage (100 ~ 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 60min of warm-up in order to avoid any temperature drift influence (colorimetry vs time).
Pre-Conditions and Power Supply Check
Before
power-on, please check the board according to the relevant block diagram and
circuit diagram, 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 spec, the error should be
less than 5%, for example, the voltage for main chip (+3V3, +2.5V, VDDC1V15,
1V5_DDR, etc.), the voltage for TUNER (TU_3V3), the voltage for amplifier (AMP_VCC),
etc.
Project ID Modification
There
are different ID stored in the EMMC depending on different Panels settings and
Model features, but there’s only one key branching Project ID able to ensure
normal display. And when you power on the TV set, you should make sure the

Function Test
Once
the Project ID is correct and the TV display normally, plug all external
generator devices to relevant inputs/outputs below according to their
respective test patterns format and check picture content and sound quality
accordingly:
LAN/WLAN Test: MAC Address Upgrade
Upgrading
MAC address needs to use the tool in factory and through serial command. The
specific method is according to the operation of the factory guidance.
DeviceID (DID) and UserID (UID)
Purpose
is to allow Other Network Download (OND) and further specific services over
dedicated portal based on AP. For such, specific DID (32 bytes) and UID (8
bytes) needs to be paired and overwritten into memory for internal client
encryption, as below:
Those DID/UID codes can only be set using UART commands following enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v3.9).
LAN Test
A
rough LAN test can be done by connecting Ethernet to TV’s RJ45 and check that
IP, subnet mask, DNS addresses, which are visible on “HomeàSettingsàNetworkàEthernet settingsàIP settings” (ensure that “Internet Connection” is Enabled at first). 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.
SHOP INIT (Intilization)
At
final process stage, it’s necessary to perform Shop init before any packing to leave Factory mode and restore
User default presets according to the requirement of order.
This function is accessible by selecting “Factory Menu à Shop”, then pressing RCU “Right
”or” Left” key. Other faster methods are available on above
enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v3.9).
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 à Warm up”, pressing RCU “Right”
or ”Left” key to set it ON, and then it enter in Warm up mode. Press “Menu” key on keyboard to exit the
burning mode. Other faster methods are available on above enclosed SIACP requirements (rev. v3.9)

Calibration of Color Temperature
According
to TCL standards, the color temperature and white reference coordinates of LCD
like the following table: (This standard is based on CA-310 color temperature
meter)
White
balance adjustment takes the Normal color
temperature of HDMI channel as the reference.
Warm and Cold tone is relative to Normal
mode. The adjustable gain range is 0~255.
The Normal color temperature of
other channel is relative to the Normal
mode of HDMI channel. The
adjustable gain range is also 0~255.
The manual adjustment is according to the regulation above. Additionally, when manually
adjust, it needs to do White Balance
init first.
Take signal generator 22293 as an example, the timing value and pattern value of each source
show in the following table:
Note:
1)
The input signal is 80% white when the pattern value of 22293 is 103.
2) The adjustment of White Balance should fulfill TCL matching specification.
