fit on the screen, move the “CURSOR UP/DOWN” key to 
display the next/previous menu items.
• With the “CURSOR LEFT/RIGHT” keys, it is possible to:
– (De) activate the selected menu item.
– (De) activate the selected sub menu.
• With the “OK” key, it is possible to activate the selected 
action.
How to Exit SAM
Use one of the following methods:
• Switch the TV set to STAND-BY via the RC-transmitter.
• Via a standard RC-transmitter, key in “00” sequence, or 
select the “BACK” key.
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.
When in this chassis CSM is activated, a test pattern will be 
displayed during 5 seconds (1 second Blue, 1 second Green 
and 1 second Red, then again 1 second Blue and 1 second 
Green). This test pattern is generated by the PNX51X0 
(located on the 200Hz board as part of the display). So if this 
test pattern is shown, it could be determined that the back end 
video chain (PNX51X0 and display) is working.For TV sets 
without the PNX51X0 inside, every menu from CSM will be 
used as check for the back end chain video.
 
When CSM is activated and there is a USB stick connected to 
the TV set, the software will dump the CSM content to the USB 
stick. The file (CSM_model number_serial number.txt) will be 
saved in the root of the USB stick. This info can be handy if no 
information is displayed. 
 
When in CSM mode (and a USB stick connected), pressing 
“OK” will create an extended CSM dump file on the USB stick. 
This file (Extended_CSM_model number_serial number.txt) 
contains:
• The normal CSM dump information,
• All items (from SAM “load to USB”, but in readable format),
• Operating hours,
• Error codes,
• SW/HW event logs.
 
To have fast feedback from the field, a flashdump can be 
requested by development. When in CSM, push the “red” 
button and key in serial digits ‘2679’ (same keys to form the 
word ‘COPY’ with a cellphone). A file “Dump_model 
number_serial number.bin” will be written on the connected 
USB device. This can take 1/2 minute, depending on the 
quantity of data that needs to be dumped.
 
Also when CSM is activated, the LAYER 1 error is displayed via 
blinking LED. Only the latest error is displayed (see also 
section 5.5 Error Codes
).
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, can be navigated through the menus.
• 12NC display. Shows the 12NC of the display.
• 12NC supply. Shows the 12NC of the power supply.
• 12NC 200Hz board. Shows the 12NC of the 200Hz Panel 
(when present).
• 12NC AV PIP. Shows the 12NC of the AV PIP board
(when present).
Software versions
• Current main SW. Displays the build-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.
Example: Q55xx1.2.3.4
Example: STDBY_83.84.0.0.
• e-UM version. Displays the electronic user manual SW-
version (12NC version number). Most significant number 
here is the last digit.
• AV PIP software.
• 3D dongle software version.
Quality items
• Signal quality. Bad / average /good (not for DVB-S).
• Ethernet MAC address. Displays the MAC address 
present in the SSB.
• Wireless MAC address. Displays the wireless MAC 
address to support the Wi-Fi functionality.
• BDS key. Indicates if the set is in the BDS status.
• CI module. Displays status if the common interface 
module is detected.
• CI + protected service. Yes/No.
• Event counter :
S : 000X 0000(number of software recoveries : SW 
EVENT-LOG #(reboots)
S : 0000 000X (number of software events : SW EVENT-
LOG #(events)
H : 000X 0000(number of hardware errors)
H : 0000 000X (number of hardware events : SW EVENT-
LOG #(events).

• 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. The 
update can be done via the NVM editor available in SAM.
•  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. The update can be done via the NVM 
editor available in SAM.
Contents of CSM
The contents are reduced to 3 pages: General, Software 
versions and Quality items. The group names itself are not 
shown anywhere in the CSM menu.
General
• Installed date. Indicates the date of the first installation of 
the TV. This date is acquired via time extraction.
• Options 1. Gives the option codes of option group 1 as set 
in SAM (Service Alignment Mode).
• Options 2. Gives the option codes of option group 2 as set 
in SAM (Service Alignment Mode).
• 12NC SSB. Gives an identifi cation of the SSB as stored in 
NVM. Note that if an NVM is replaced or is initialized after 
corruption, this identifi cation number has to be re-written 
to NVM. This identifi cation number is the 12nc number of 
the SSB.
• Stand-by SW. Displays the build-in stand-by processor 
software version. Upgrading this software will be possible 
via USB (see section 5.9 Software Upgrading)
