Adjustment gradation values (IN) appear on page 7/11 of process adjustment, and adjustment initial values (offset value) appear on pages 8/11 and
9/11. For white balance adjustment, adjust the offset values on pages 8/11 and 9/11.

[Adjustment]

Check that the values on page 7/11 of process adjustment are set as below. If not, change them accordingly.

1) Display the current adjustment status at point 6. (Page 8/11 of process adjustment)

The display for checking the adjustment status is toggled by pressing the “6” button on the remote control.

(Normal OSD display 

→ “6” → display for check (OSD disappears) → “6” →normal OSD display → • • •)

2) Read the value of the luminance meter.

3) Change M GAMMA R6/M GAMMA B6 (Adjustment offset value) on page 9/11 of process adjustment so that the values of the luminance meter

approach x = 0.272 and y = 0.277.

(Basically, G is not changed. If adjustment fails with R and B, change G. When G is lowered, the weaker of R and B must be fixed.)

4) If G is changed in step 3), change the values of M GAMMA G1-M GAMMA G5 on pages 8/11 and 9/11 of process adjustment as follows. When not

changed, go to step5).

Offset value of M GAMMA G1 = (Offset value of M GAMMA G6) * (160/960)

Offset value of M GAMMA G2 = (Offset value of M GAMMA G6) * (320/960)

Offset value of M GAMMA G3 = (Offset value of M GAMMA G6) * (480/960)

Offset value of M GAMMA G4 = (Offset value of M GAMMA G6) * (640/960)

Offset value of M GAMMA G5 = (Offset value of M GAMMA G6) * (800/960)

5) Display the adjustment status of the current point 5. (Each time the “5” button on the remote control is pressed, the adjustment status check dis-

play is toggled.)

(Normal OSD display 

→ “5” → Check display (OSD disappears) → “5” → Normal OSD display → • • •)

Change M GAMMA R5/M GAMMA B5 (adjustment offset value) on page 9/11 of process adjustment so that the values of the luminance meter
approach x = 0.272 and y = 0.277.

6) Repeat step 5) for points 4, 3, 2, and 1.

1) Get ready the PC with COM port (RS-232C) running on Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP operating system, as well as the RS-232C cross cable.

2) Start the unit with the RS-232C cable connected.

3) Start the terminal software. (The freeware readily available on the Internet will do.)

4) Make the following settings.

5) If the settings are correct, the terminal software indicates "ERR" against pressing of the "ENTER" key.

6) After the settings are done correctly, it is possible to make an adjustment by typing in the command shown in the table below and pressing the

"ENTER" key on the keyboard.

7) Command entry is successful if the terminal software indicates "OK" when the "ENTER" is pressed. If "ERR" is shown, retry to enter the command.

8) Send the process mode switching command to switch from the RS232C operation mode to the process mode.

KRSW0001: "ERR" is returned.

KKT10037: When "OK" is returned, the process mode becomes active. When "ERR", start over from KRSW0001.

9) Send each adjustment command.

3 – 24

This LCD colour television has a function (lamp error detection) to be turned OFF automatically for safety when the lamp or lamp circuit is abnormal

If the lamp or lamp circuit is abnormal, or some other errors happen, and the lamp error detection is executed, the following occur.

1- The main unit of television is turned OFF 5 seconds after it is turned ON. (The power LED on the front side of TV turns from green to red.)

2 - If the situation “1” happens 5 times sequentially, the power is turned on (relay is turned ON).

     However, the backlight is not turned on, and then the relay is turned OFF after 5 to 6 seconds. (The power LED turns from green to red.)

When television is turned OFF by the lamp error detection mentioned above, it enters the adjustment process with the power LED red. Entering the
adjustment process turns OFF the error detection and turns ON TV. This enables the operation check to detect errors in the lamp or lamp circuit

Check whether “L ERROR RESET” on point 7, page 10/11 of the adjustment process is 1 or more. If it is 1 or more, it indicates the lamp error detec-
tion was executed. After confirming that the lamp or lamp circuit is normal, reset the lamp error counter pushing “OK” in the R/C. After resetting
counter the label “***OK***” appears on Screen.

After confirming that the lamp error counter has been erased, select “STAND BY CAUSE RESET” on point 3, page 10/11 of the adjustment process
and select ON using the right cursor. For execute press “OK” in the R/C and the label “***OK***” appears on Screen.

Caution:

When the factory settings have been made, all user setting data, including the channel settings, are initialized.
(The adjustments done in the adjustment process mode are not initialized.) Keep this in mind when initializing these settings.

Factory settings

Forcibly turn off the power
(See to below caution)

• Enter the adjustment process mode.
• Move the cursor to [Factory Init] on page 2/11.
• Use the R/C key to select a destination [EURO/RUSSIA/

SWEDEN]. And, press the [OK] key.

• “EXECUTING...” appears and initialization starts.
• After a while, “*** OK ***” appears and the setting is complete.

NOTE: Never turn the power off during initialization.
When performing factory settings (while displaying page 2 of adjustment 
process), confirm that the item “Inch Setting” or the panel size displayed 
in the upper right corner corresponds to each panel size.
The following settings will be back to their factory ones.
1. User settings
2. Channel data (e.g. broadcast frequencies)
3. Maker option setting
4. Password data

After adjustments, exit the adjustment process mode.
To exit the adjustment process mode, unplug the AC power cord from the outlet to forcibly turn off the power.
When the power is turned off with the remote control, unplug the AC power cord and plug it back in (wait approximately 10 seconds before plugging 
in the AC power cord)
