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 0x001C50
- export CUST_OAD_HW_MODEL 0x5395
- export CUST_OAD_HW_VERSION 0x0000
- export CUST_OAD_SW_MODEL 0x0001
- export CUST_OAD_SW_VERSION 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 itsUSB
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 fulfill UART/IR commands protocol and format described on enclosed
SIACP requirements document.
Project ID Modification
There are different IDs stored into thee MMC depending on different Panels
settings and Models features, but there is only one key branching Project ID
that includes all. So, it’s not recommended to modify Pane 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”, then spin left or right with RCU “◄/►” key” keys to suitable ID
(Project name is dynamically refreshed).It is necessary to press “OK” key for
saving the setting.
How
to change the Project ID with RCU
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.
As
SoC as built-in A/D self-calibration mechanism, there’s not 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.
LAN
and WLAN Test(MAC address and Device/User ID codes)
Here
are some representative codes examples:
Device
ID: 6fa0806936a0ada733262a3f8e8595d5586ce5cb
User
ID: 111382090
MAC
address: 00:1C:50:E2:B1:EC
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 00 1C 50 E2 B1 EC 36 78>
How to upgrade MAC Address using USB
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 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 B242 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 464893>
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 “User menu > Network
> Internet connection(On) > IP 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.

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 analyser (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 center.
The results should fulfill specification for each TV set.
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):+0.002for “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
