The service mode display has more information.
WSL
At the center of the service screen is a Weak Signal Level (WSL) number.
This number is similar to the AGC level in older TV sets. The lower the
WSL number the stronger the TV signal. 0 is a strong station and about
255 corresponds to snow. When a video input is selected, the WSL num-
ber is fixed at 0.
480i/480p/1080i Video Format
When Video 5 or 6 is selected, the input format is shown at the right side
of the display.
The video format is detected by the MID circuit when measuring the hori-
zontal frequency of the signal input. The default format is 480i when
there is no video signal input.
Input signal Horizontal Frequency
Standard NTSC 480i 15,734 Hz
High Resolution 480p 31.5kHz
High Resolution 1080i 33.75kHz
Bottom Flag numbers
These numbers are added in manufacturing to identify where the boards
come from and when they were made. The information is used for qual-
ity control purposes.
Memory Check
In the service mode you can check the condition of two of three NVM ICs
(memories). Press the #2 button repeatedly until the Service Group =
ID .
At the lower right, G = Good. NG = No good.

The geometry adjustments have three memory locations for each item in
the service menu.

1080i 16:9 aspect ratio
After performing the adjustment in the 480i standard mode, change the
user setup menu to 16:9 Enhanced Mode. Selecting ON reduces the
vertical for the 1080i mode. Perform the adjustment again. The middle
480p 16x9 mode requires a generator to access.
