(2) Confirmation
1) We confirm whether “0xBF(480i)/0xC8(1080i)” address
of EEPROM “0xA2” is “0xAA” or not.
2) If “0xBF(480i)/0xC8(1080i)” address of EEPROM “0xA2”
isn’t “0xAA”, we adjust once more.
3) We can confirm the ADC values from “0xB ~0xBE(480i)/
0xC2~(1080i)” addresses in a page “0xA2”.
* Manual ADC Confirmation using Service Remocon. After
enter Service Mode by pushing “INSTART” key.

means the panel is at its Full Dynamic Range. In order to
prevent saturation of Full Dynamic range and data, one of
R/G/B is fixed at 192, and the other two is lowered to find
the desired value.
