6.1 DEALER SCRIPT
6.1.1 Purpose of Dealer Script
The dealer script can give a diagnosis on a standalone DVD
player; no other equipment is needed to perform a number of
hardware tests to check if the DVD player is faulty. The
diagnosis is simply a "error" or "pass" message; no indication
is given of faulty hardware modules. Only tests within the scope
of the diagnostic software will be executed hence only faults
within this scope can be detected.

6.1.2 Contents of Dealer Script
The dealer script executes all diagnostic nuclei that do not
need any user interaction and are meaningful on a standalone
DVD player.
The nuclei called in the dealer script are the following (the
number after each nucleus name corresponds with the number
being on the local display when the nucleus is executed during
the dealer script):

DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE : SCRIPT INTERFACES
6.2 PLAYER SCRIPT
6.2.1 Purpose of Player Script
The Player script will give the opportunity to perform a test that
will determine which of the DVD player's modules are faulty, to
read the error log and error bits and to perform an endurance
loop test. To successfully perform the tests, the DVD player
must be connected to a tv set to check the output of a number
of nuclei. For DVDv2b a multi-channel amplifier, a set of 6
boxes and an external video source are necessary to test. To
be able to check results of certain nuclei, the player script
expects some interaction of the user (i.e. to approve a test
picture or a test sound). Some nuclei (e.g. nuclei that test
functionality of the Basic Engine module) require that the DVD
player itself is opened, to enable the user to observe moving
parts and approve their movement visually. Only tests within
the scope of the diagnostic software will be executed hence
only faults within this scope can be detected.
6.2.2 Contents of Player Script
The player script contains all nuclei that are useful on a DVD
player that is connected to a tv-set and help to determine which
module of the DVD player is faulty, as well as to read out the
contents of the error logs.
6.2.3 Structure of Player Script
The player script consists of a set of nuclei testing the three
hardware modules in the DVD player: the Display PWB, the
Digital PWB and the Basic Engine.
Nuclei run by the player test need some user interaction; in the
next paragraph this interaction is described. The player test is
done in two phases:
1. Interactive tests: this part of the player test depends
strongly on user interaction and input to determine nucleus
results and to progress through the full test. Reading the
error log and error bits information can be useful to
determine any errors that occurred recently during normal
operation of the DVD player.
2. The loop test will perform the same nuclei as the dealer
test, but it will loop through the list of nuclei indefinitely.

6.3 INTERACTIVE TESTS
6.3.1 DISPLAY PCB
DISPLAY TEST
The display test is performed by nucleus DispDisplay. By
putting a series of test patterns on the local display, the local
display is tested. To step through all different patterns, the user
must either press PLAY (pattern is ok) or PAUSE (pattern was
incorrect) to proceed to the next pattern. The display of
patterns is continued in a cyclic manner until the user presses
NEXT. If the user presses NEXT before all display patterns are
tested, the DispDisplay nucleus will return TRUE (display test
successful).
LED TEST
The LED(s) on the DVD player is (are) tested by nucleus
DispLed. The user must check if the LED(s) is (are) lighted; if it
is, press PLAY, if it is not, press PAUSE. By pressing NEXT the
script will proceed to the next test. If the user presses NEXT
before PLAY or PAUSE, the DispLed nucleus will return TRUE
(LED test successful).

If any keys are detected more than once (due to hardware
error), the key-code is displayed twice (or more), with the
second digit increased by 1.
If the user does not press all keys minimally once (in any order),
the DispKeys nucleus will return FALSE and cause an error in
the overall result of the player script.
The user can leave the keyboard test by pressing the NEXT
key on the local display of the DVD player for at least one full
second.
The result of the keyboard test is shown on local display as
follows:

KEYBOARD TEST
The keyboard of the DVD player is tested by nucleus
DispKeyb. The user is expected to press all keys on the local
keyboard once. The code of the key pressed is shown on the
local display (1 hexadecimal digit) immediately followed by a
(hexadecimal) number indicating how many times that key has
been pressed. Example of the local display during this test:

Or
Figure 6-8
Pressing NEXT on the local keyboard again will proceed to the
next text.
REMOTE CONTROL TEST
The remote control of the DVD player is tested by nucleus
DispRc. The user must press any key on the remote control just
once. The codes of the key pressed will be shown on the local
display in hexadecimal format. Example:
CL 96532065_007.eps

Figure 6-5
The key-codes displayed on the local display will scroll from
right to left when the display gets full, the text "tb-" will remain
on display.
Figure 6-9
In this example 23 is the hexidecimal code of the pressed RC
key. The user can leave the remote-control test by pressing
NEXT on the local keyboard of the DVD player. The remote
control test is successful if a code was received before the user
pressed the NEXT key; pressing the NEXT key before pressing
a key on the remote control gives an error in the remote control

test (note that the remote control test will also fail if a key on the
remote control was pressed but no code was received). The
remote control test does not check upon the contents of the
received code, that is it will not be checked if the received code
matches the key pressed. If desired, the user can manually
check this code by using a code-table for the remote control
key-codes.

8.1 Display board
8.1.1 Introduction
These test instructions are written for all versions of the display
PCB 396-90348.973.
The contents of the PCB can be split up into next blocks:
V filament
V filament
Buffer
I2C
Supply:
+5Vstby
+12V
-40V
8.1.2 Functionality description:
The essential component of the display PCB is the uP (slave).
This slave works on an 8MHz resonator and has a reset circuit
that is triggered by the +5Vstby. After the reset pulse, the
standby control line will release the reset of the host uP. This
host uP will then initialise the slave. In addition, when going to
stand-by, the slave will put the host uP in reset. When the slave
receives the right IR or key code to leave the standby mode, the
reset of the host uP will be released.
Other slave functions are:
• Square signal generator to generate the filament voltage,
which is required for an AC FTD.
• Generates the grid and segment scanning for the FTD.
• Generates a scanning grid for the keys (separated from
display scanning).
• Has inputs for RC (RC5 and RC6) and P50 (P50 controller
is built in).
8.1.3 General
• Oscilloscope measurements have been carried out using a
Philips PM3392A.
• Impedance of measuring-equipment should be > 1M(.
• To do correct measurements we recommend to use supply
396-90350.937, which is used in all "second generation B"
DVD-players. Make sure that the main 3.3V has a 0.7A
load.

8.1.8 Karaoke interface
The karaoke interface (4 lines) is a single direction
communication.
This means that it consists of four uP output lines.
The interface can be checked by setting or resetting these
output-ports via the I2C bus.
Send next command via the I2C bus:
Address : 0x70
Command byte : 0x24
Data byte : xxxxabcd
Wherea : a = Karaoke reset.
: b = Karaoke data.
: c = Karaoke clock.
: d = Karaoke strobe.
8.1.9 P50 interface
P50 is a bi-directional serial interface, which is used for
communication between video equipment. For European sets,
this communication goes via pin 10 of the scart-bus. In other
regions, it can be a cinch bus at the back of the set.
1. Keep the uP in reset by short-circuiting emitter and
collector of transistor 7108, via resistor 3100 and 3104
transistor 7101 is switched on.
2. Check the voltage at the P50 output connector 1118-5: <
200mV.
When the reset is released the uP output-pin becomes low and
transistor 7101 is switched off.
