With the "CURSOR LEFT/RIGHT" keys, it is possible to:
(De) activate the selected menu item.
(De) activate the selected submenu.
How to Exit SAM
Use one of the following methods:
Press the "MENU" button on the RC-transmitter.
Switch the set to STAND-BY via the RC-transmitter.
Note: As long as SAM is activated, it is not possible to change
a channel. This could hamper the White Point alignments
because you cannot choose your channel/frequency any more.
Workaround: after you have sent the RC code "062596 INFO"
you will see the service-warning screen, and in this stage it is
still possible to change the channel (so before pressing the
"OK" button).
5.2.3
Customer Service Mode (CSM)
Purpose
When a customer is having problems with his TV-set, he can
call his dealer or the Customer Helpdesk. The service
technician can then ask the customer to activate the CSM, in
order to identify the status of the set. Now, the service
technician can judge the severity of the complaint. In many
cases, he can advise the customer how to solve the problem,
or he can decide if it is necessary to visit the customer.
The CSM is a read only mode; therefore, modifications in this
mode are not possible.
How to Activate CSM
Key in the code "123654" via the standard RC transmitter.
Note: Activation of the CSM is only possible if there is no (user)
menu on the screen!
How to Navigate
By means of the "CURSOR-DOWN/UP" knob on the RC-
transmitter, you can navigate through the menus.
Contents of CSM
SW Version (example: EL23U-1.2.3.4_12345). Displays
the built-in main software version. In case of field problems
related to software, software can be upgraded. As this
software is consumer upgradeable, it will also be published
on the Internet.
SBY Processor Version. Displays the built-in stand-by
processor software version. Upgrading this software will be
possible via a PC and a ComPair interface (see chapter
Software upgrade).
Set Type. This information is very helpful for a helpdesk/
workshop as reference for further diagnosis. In this way, it
is not necessary for the customer to look at the rear of the
TV-set. Note that if an NVM is replaced or is initialized after
corruption, this set type has to be re-written to NVM.
ComPair will foresee a possibility to do this.
Production Code. Displays the production code (the serial
number) of the TV. Note that if an NVM is replaced or is
initialized after corruption, this production code has to be
re-written to NVM. ComPair will foresee a possibility to do
this.
Code 1. Gives the latest five errors of the error buffer. As
soon as the built-in diagnose software has detected an
error the buffer is adapted. The last occurred error is
displayed on the leftmost position. Each error code is
displayed as a 2-digit number. When less than 10 errors
occur, the rest of the buffer is empty (00). See also
paragraph Error Codes for a description.
Code 2. Gives the first five errors of the error buffer. See
also paragraph Error Codes for a description.
Headphone Volume. Gives the last status of the
headphone volume, as set by the customer. The value can

"HEADPHONE VOLUME".
Dolby. Indicates whether the received transmitter
transmits Dolby sound ("ON") or not ("OFF"). Attention: The

the Dolby Signaling bit. If a Dolby transmission is received
without a Dolby Signaling bit, this indicator will show "OFF"
even though a Dolby transmission is received.
Sound Mode. Indicates the by the customer selected
sound mode (or automatically chosen mode). Possible

Noise Figure. Gives the noise ratio for the selected

(average signal) and to 255 (bad signal). For some
software versions, the noise figure will only be valid when
"Active Control" is set to "medium" or "maximum" before
activating CSM.
Source. Indicates which source is used and the video/
audio signal quality of the selected source. (Example:
Tuner, Video/NICAM) Source: "TUNER", "AV1", "AV2",

receiving there will be no info displayed.

tuned (via "Automatic Installation" in the setup menu) or via
the automatic tuning system of the TV. In this case "Tuned
bit" will show "YES". If the TV was not able to auto-tune to

is displayed, it could indicate that the customer has
manually tuned to a frequency which was too far from a
correct frequency, that the TV was not able to auto-tune
any more.

lock: "LOCKED" or "UNLOCKED". Change via "MENU",
