SECTION 2 - SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
OVERVIEW
There are 2 reasons for updating the software on the TVs.
● Software updates for customers
These updates are for enhancements or improvements that
have been made to the software after the TV was released.
● Software update for servicers
These updates are specifically for servicers to use during a
service call.
SOFTWARE UPDATES FOR CUSTOMERS
The subject of software updates is a very important. The televisions
of today have advanced to the point where they are not simply a
television anymore. They are evolving into devices that are designed
to integrate with numerous other devices found in the home. Some
examples are: Portable audio and video devices, still cameras, home
computer networks and accessing the internet to name a few.
Communications with these varying devices requires that the
Communications with these varying devices requires that the
television be compatible with varying communications protocols.
Although standards are detailed for each of these protocols, the real
world dictates that occasional errors may occur that could prevent
devices from operating or communicating properly.
Keeping the software in the television up-to-date is a procedure that
Keeping the software in the television up-to-date is a procedure that
is normally handled by the owner of the television. Most customers
who own computers and other digital devices are familiar with and are
accustomed to updating the software in their products. If a customer
contacts the Sony Customer Support Center and it is deemed to
be correctable with a software update, the issue is handled at the
customer level.
