Rolsen RL-26B01- how to enter the service mode, adjustments - Chassis MST9E19


Many electrical and mechanical parts in the chassis have special safety-related characteristics. These characteristics are often passed unnoticed by a visual inspection. When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by us that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock and injury to persons or other hazards. This LCD TV product should be situated away from heat source such as radiation, stoves, or other product that produce heat.
This Panel is a TFT LCD module supports 1366 x 768 WXGA format and can display true 16.7M colors (8-bit colors).
Service Mode and Adjustment

Method-1 Use the remote control, first open MAIN MENU with MENU button, and choose PICTURE with the CHANNEL UP/DOWN button, then choose the Brightness with VOLUME UP, while Brightness value is 50, press 0,5,3,2. You can enter factory menu.
Method-2 Use the remote control, first open MAIN MENU with MENU button, and choose SOUND with the CHANNEL UP/DOWN button, then choose the Balance with VOLUME UP, while Balance value is 0, press 0,5,3,2. You can enter factory menu.

Adjustment REMOCON and EEPROM initial DATA
A. The adjustment Specification use the SERVICE REMOCON R-34SVC
(S/N: 48B3034SVC)
B. Adjustment DATA
Description of SERVICE MODE ITEM
A. S1(1) : Heat-Run Key
B. S2(2) : Gumi Channel Map Write
C. S3(3) : Volume Test
=> This key can check sound
D. S4(4) : EDIE WRITE
=> Using this key, you can update EDID data.
E. S5(5) : PANEL TEST
=> Using this key, you can test problem of PANEL, as confirm white pattern, red pattern, blue pattern, green pattern.
F. S6(6) : PICTURE TEST
=> Using this key, you can test brightness, contrast and color.
G. S7(7) : DEMPOL CHANNEL MAP WRITE
H. S8(8) : EEPROM Erase and White Balance adjustment
=> Using this key, you can erase EEPROM data and adjust White balance.
I. S9(9) : Device control
=> This key only use for R&D.
J. S10(10) : Option key

To adjust WHITE BALANCE, refer to below process.
6-1. Insert white pattern to component input Signal Generator : 802BT (By Quantum Data)
Resolution : 1280x720p @60Hz,
Pattern : Grey Scale (11 step)
6-2. Confirm ‘dimming’ in service mode (=s10) 32C3 = 0, 26C3 = 255
6-3. Attach white balance meter(CA-210) on center of Panel
6-4. Press the service key s8
6-5. Adjust white balance with valiable R.G.B cutoff / drive.
Color coordinates
X = 0.280 0.01, Y = 0.285
X = 0.280 0.01, Y = 0.290
0.01, cd/m2 = 50cd/m2
0.01, cd/m2 = 300cd/m2
6-6. Press s8 buttorn to escape SERVICE MODE
The difference of LCD Panel is not so much, therefore we don’t adjust white balance.

Typical Symptoms of PCBs problem or bad connection
A. Symptom of initial latch up
- Define initial latch up : When turn on the power, both LEDs light up red and TV is not working.
- Repairing method : This is typical symptom when ROM(ICU3) is incorrectly connected at socket. So if you find this symptom, you must try to that ROM(ICU3) and socket have correct contact.
- As this method, TV set is not repaired, replace MAIN PCB.
B. Symptom of No image when LED and Back Light are working.
- Define No image : LED and BACK LIGHT of panel are correctly working but any image does not display.
- Repairing method : This is typical symptom when LVDS cable incorrectly connects.
So if you find this symptom, check LVDS connection.
- As this method, TV set is not repaired, replace Main or Sub PCB.
C. Representative Symptom caused by bad Connection between PCBs
=> Note: Dust or extraneous material may cause bad connections. Most of the time, applying soft brush, AIR FRESHIER, or breath to clean dust or extraneous materials can solve it. And then reassemble the Connector.
