After replacing the LCD panel or LCD control PWB, adjust the VCOM in the following procedure.
1 Enter the process adjustment mode.
2 Use the cursor keys Up/Dn and P Up/Dn of R/C to select the item [VCOM ADJ] on the page 10/14.
3 Press the OK key to verify that the adjustment pattern is displayed.
4 Use the +/- keys of VOL of R/C to adjust the flicker in the center of the screen to minimum.
5 When the optimal state is achieved in Step 4, press the OK key to turn the pattern to OFF.

4 Use the +/- keys of VOL of R/C to adjust the flicker in the center of the screen to minimum.
5 When the optimal state is achieved in Step 4, press the OK key to turn the pattern to OFF.
Entering and exiting the adjustment process mode
1. Unplug the AC power cord of running TV set to force off the power.
2. While holding down the “VOL (-)” and “INPUT” keys on the set at once, plug in the AC power cord to turn on the power [Service mode]
The letter “K” appears on the screen.
3. Next, hold down the “VOL (-)” and “P (+/- )” keys on the set at once.
Multiple lines of blue characters appearing on the screen indicate that the set is now in the adjustment Process mode. If you fail to enter the adjustment process mode (the display is the same as normal startup), retry the procedure.
4. To exit the adjustment process mode after the adjustment is done, unplug the AC power cord to force off the power. (When the power is turned off with the remote controller, once unplug the AC power cord and plug it in again. In this case, wait 10 seconds or so before plugging.)

Description of display
Lamp error detection
This LCD color TV set incorporates a lamp error detection feature that automatically turns off the power for safety under abnormal lamp or lamp circuit conditions. If by any chance anything is wrong with the lamp or lamp circuit or if the lamp error detection feature is activated for some reason, the following will result.
1) The power is interrupted in about 6 seconds after it is turned on.
(The power LED on the front of the TV set turns red from green and keeps blinking in red: ON for 250 ms and OFF for 1 sec.).
2) If the above phenomenon 1) occurs 5 times consecutively, it becomes impossible to turn on the power. (The power LED remained red).
Measures
1) Checking with lamp error detection OFF
Enter the adjustment process mode, referring to 2. Entering and exiting the adjustment process mode.
If there is a problem with the lamp or lamp circuit, the lamp will go out. (The power LED is green.)
Then, you can check the operation to see if the lamp and lamp circuit are in trouble.
Resetting the lamp error count
After the lamp and lamp circuit are found out of trouble, reset the lamp error count. If a lamp error is detected five consecutive times, the power cannot be turned on. Using the cursor ( Up/Dn ) key, move to the cursor to [LAMP ERROR RESET], Line 8 on adjustment process mode service page 2/14. With the cursor (L /R ) keys, select the [LAMP ERROR RESET] value. Finally press the cursor (OK) keys to reset the value to “0”.

Public Mode (Hotel Mode)
1. Starting the Public Mode
There are two following ways to display the PUBLIC Mode setting screen.
1) On the process adjustment mode screen (2/14), set the ”HOTEL MODE” Flag to ON.
Turn off the power, and turn it on again, pressing the Channel Up and the Volume Up keys of the main unit at the same time.
2) Enter the Pass Word, and start the unit.
a) Turn on the power, pressing the Input and the Volume Up keys of the main unit at the same time.
b) Display the Pass Word input screen.
Operation procedure
The initial input position is the digit at the left end.
For the numeric keys “0”to “9” of R/C, key input is accepted. Input of the other keys is prohibited.
Change “-” to “*” by inputting the numeric key at the input position, and shift the input position rightward one digit.
When three digits are completely input, the Pass Word is judged.
c) Check the Pass Word by inputting three digits.
If the Pass Word is “027”, it shifts to the PUBLIC Mode setting screen.
In another case, the screen is erased, and it operates in the ordinary mode.

Exiting the Public Mode screen
There are two following ways to exit the Public Mode setting screen.
1) Turn off the power.
2) Select “Execution” in the PUBLIC_Mode to execute it.
Activate the restart under the set content. Here, the START input SOURCE setting is excluded since this item is referred to only when the power is turned on.
Each set value in Public Mode is initialized when resetting to factory settings.
(The setting of the Public Mode in the process mode is also initialized.)
In Addition, industry initialization for initializing items other than each set value in Public Mode is established in the process mode.
INDUSTRY INIT (-HOTEL)
Each setting is valid only when HOTLE MODE is set to ON.
To reflect each set value, perform AC OFF/ON after determination by executing.
