Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.1Safety Instructions
Safety regulations require that during a repair:
•Due to the chassis concept, a very large part of the circuitry
(incl. deflection) is 'hot'. Therefore, connect the set to the
mains via an isolation transformer.
•Replace safety components, indicated by the symbol h,
only by components identical to the original ones. Any
other component substitution (other than original type) may
increase risk of fire or electrical shock hazard.
•Wear safety goggles when you replace the CRT.
Safety regulations require that after a repair, you must return
the set in its original condition. Pay, in particular, attention to
the following points:
•General repair instruction: as a strict precaution, we advise
you to re-solder the solder connections through which the
horizontal deflection current is flowing. In particular this is
valid for the:
1. Pins of the line output transformer (LOT).
2. Fly-back capacitor(s).
3. S-correction capacitor(s).
4. Line output transistor.
5. Pins of the connector with wires to the deflection coil.
6. Other components through which the deflection current
flows.
Note: This re-soldering is advised to prevent bad connections
due to metal fatigue in solder connections, and is therefore only
necessary for television sets more than two years old.
•Check the insulation of the mains cord for external
damage.
•Check the strain relief of the mains cord for proper function,
to prevent the cord from touching the CRT, hot
components, or heat sinks.
•Check the electrical DC resistance between the mains plug
and the secondary side (only for sets that have an isolated
power supply). Do this as follows:
1. Unplug the mains cord and connect a wire between the
two pins of the mains plug.
2. Turn on the main power switch (keep the mains cord
unplugged!).
3. Measure the resistance value between the pins of the
mains plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or the
aerial connection of the set. The reading should be
between 4.5 Mohm and 12 Mohm.
4. Switch the TV 'off' and remove the wire between the
two pins of the mains plug.
•Check the cabinet for defects, to prevent the possibility of
the customer touching any internal parts.
2.3Warnings
•In order to prevent damage to ICs and transistors, avoid all
high voltage flashovers. In order to prevent damage to the
picture tube, use the method shown in Fig. 2-1, to
discharge the picture tube. Use a high voltage probe and a
multi-meter (position V_dc). Discharge until the meter
reading is 0 V (after approx. 30 s).
V
Figure 2-1 Discharge picture tube
•All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to
electrostatic discharges (ESD, w). Careless handling
during repair can reduce life drastically. Make sure that,
during repair, you are connected with the same potential as
the mass of the set by a wristband with resistance. Keep
components and tools also at this potential. Available ESD
protection equipment:
– Complete kit ESD3 (small tablemat, wristband,
connection box, extension cable and ground cable)
4822 310 10671.
– Wristband tester 4822 344 13999.
•Together with the deflection unit and any multi-pole unit,
flat square picture tubes form an integrated unit. The
deflection and the multi-pole units are set optimally at the
factory. We do not recommend adjusting this unit during
repair.
•Be careful during measurements in the high voltage
section and on the picture tube.
•Never replace modules or other components while the unit
is 'on’.
•When you align the set, use plastic rather than metal tools.
This will prevent any short circuits and the danger of a
circuit becoming unstable.

2.2Maintenance Instructions
We recommend a maintenance inspection carried out by
qualified service personnel. The interval depends on the usage
conditions:
•When a customer uses the set under normal
circumstances, for example in a living room, the
recommended interval is three to five years.
•When a customer uses the set in an environment with
higher dust, grease, or moisture levels, for example in a
kitchen, the recommended interval is one year.
•The maintenance inspection includes the following actions:
1. Perform the 'general repair instruction' noted above.
2. Clean the power supply and deflection circuitry on the
chassis.
3. Clean the picture tube panel and the neck of the picture
tube.
•The picture tube panel has printed spark gaps. Each spark
gap is connected between an electrode of the picture tube
2.4Notes
2.4.1 General
•Measure the voltages and waveforms with regard to the
chassis (= tuner) ground (H), or hot ground (I), depending
on the tested area of circuitry.
•The voltages and waveforms shown in the diagrams are
indicative. Measure them in the Service Default Mode (see
chapter 5) with a colour bar signal and stereo sound (L: 3
kHz, R: 1 kHz unless stated otherwise) and picture carrier
at 475.25 MHz (PAL) or 61.25 MHz (NTSC, channel 3).
•Where necessary, measure the waveforms and voltages
with (D) and without (E) aerial signal. Measure the
voltages in the power supply section both in normal
operation (G) and in standby (F). These values are
indicated by means of the appropriate symbols.
and the Aquadag coating.
Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
EN 5A10E BB2.
•The semiconductors indicated in the circuit diagram and in
the parts lists, are interchangeable per position with the
semiconductors in the unit, irrespective of the type
indication on these semiconductors.

2.4.2Schematic Notes
•All resistor values are in ohms and the value multiplier is
often used to indicate the decimal point location (e.g. 2K2
indicates 2.2 kohm).
•Resistor values with no multiplier may be indicated with
either an "E" or an "R" (e.g. 220E or 220R indicates 220
ohm).
•All capacitor values are expressed in micro-farads (µ= x
10^-6), nano-farads (n= x 10^-9), or pico-farads (p= x 10^-
12).
•Capacitor values may also use the value multiplier as the
decimal point indication (e.g. 2p2 indicates 2.2 pF).
•An "asterisk" (*) indicates component usage varies. Refer
to the diversity tables for the correct values.
•The correct component values are listed in the Electrical
Replacement Parts List. Therefore, always check this list
when there is any doubt.
To reflow the solder, apply a temperature profile according to
the IC data sheet. So as not to damage neighbouring
components, it may be necessary to reduce some
temperatures and times
2.4.3Rework on BGA (Ball Grid Array) ICs
General
Although (LF)BGA assembly yields are very high, there may
still be a requirement for component rework. By rework, we
mean the process of removing the component from the PWB
and replacing it with a new component. If an (LF)BGA is
removed from a PWB, the solder balls of the component are
deformed drastically so the removed (LF)BGA has to be
discarded.
Device removal
As is the case with any component that, it is essential when
removing an (LF)BGA, the board, tracks, solder lands, or
surrounding components are not damaged. To remove an
(LF)BGA, the board must be uniformly heated to a temperature
close to the reflow soldering temperature. A uniform
temperature reduces the chance of warping the PWB.
To do this, we recommend that the board is heated until it is
certain that all the joints are molten. Then carefully pull the
component off the board with a vacuum nozzle. For the
appropriate temperature profiles, see the IC data sheet.
Area preparation
When the component has been removed, the vacant IC area
must be cleaned before replacing the (LF)BGA.
Removing an IC often leaves varying amounts of solder on the
mounting lands. This excessive solder can be removed with
either a solder sucker or solder wick. The remaining flux can be
removed with a brush and cleaning agent.
After the board is properly cleaned and inspected, apply flux on
the solder lands and on the connection balls of the (LF)BGA.
Note: Do not apply solder paste, as this has shown to result in
problems during re-soldering.
Device replacement
The last step in the repair process is to solder the new
component on the board. Ideally, the (LF)BGA should be
aligned under a microscope or magnifying glass. If this is not
possible, try to align the (LF)BGA with any board markers.

Purpose
When a customer is having problems with his TV-set, he can
call his dealer. The service technician can than ask the
customer to activate the CSM, in order to identify the status of
the set. Now, the service technician can judge the severness 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 enter
The CSM will be turned on after pressing the MUTE key on the

5.3ComPair
5.3.1Introduction
ComPair (Computer Aided Repair) is a service tool for Philips
Consumer Electronics products. ComPair is a further
development on the European DST (service remote control),
which allows faster and more accurate diagnostics. ComPair
has three big advantages:
ComPair helps you to quickly get an understanding on how to
repair the chassis in a short time by guiding you systematically
through the repair procedures.
ComPair allows very detailed diagnostics (on I2C level) and is
therefore capable of accurately indicating problem areas. You
do not have to know anything about I2C commands yourself
because ComPair takes care of this.
ComPair speeds up the repair time since it can automatically
communicate with the chassis (when the microprocessor is
working) and all repair information is directly available. When
ComPair is installed together with the SearchMan electronic
manual of the defective chassis, schematics and PWBs are
only a mouse click away.
5.3.2Specifications
ComPair consists of a Windows based faultfinding program
and an interface box between PC and the (defective) product.
The ComPair interface box is connected to the PC via a serial
or RS232 cable.
In this chassis, the ComPair interface box and the TV
communicate via a bi-directional service cable via the service
connector.
The ComPair faultfinding program is able to determine the
problem of the defective television. ComPair can gather
diagnostic information in two ways:
•Automatic (by communication with the television):
ComPair can automatically read out the contents of the
entire error buffer. Diagnosis is done on I2C level. ComPair
can access the I2C bus of the television. ComPair can
send and receive I2C commands to the micro controller of
the television. In this way, it is possible for ComPair to
communicate (read and write) to devices on the I2C
busses of the TV-set.
•Manually (by asking questions to you): Automatic
diagnosis is only possible if the micro controller of the
television is working correctly and only to a certain extend.
When this is not the case, ComPair will guide you through
the faultfinding tree by asking you questions (e.g. Does the
screen give a picture? Click on the correct answer: YES /
NO) and showing you examples (e.g. Measure test-point I7
and click on the correct waveform you see on the
oscilloscope). You can answer by clicking on a link (e.g.
text or a waveform picture) that will bring you to the next
step in the faultfinding process.
By a combination of automatic diagnostics and an interactive
question / answer procedure, ComPair will enable you to find
most problems in a fast and effective way.
Beside fault finding, ComPair provides some additional
features like:
EN 20A10E BB5.
Service Modes, Error Codes, and Fault Finding
•Up- or downloading of pre-sets.
•Managing of pre-set lists.
•Emulation of the Dealer Service Tool (DST).
•If both ComPair and SearchMan (Electronic Service
Manual) are installed, all the schematics and the PWBs of
the set are available by clicking on the appropriate
hyperlink.
Example: Measure the DC-voltage on capacitor C2568
(Schematic/Panel) at the Mono-carrier.
– Click on the 'Panel' hyperlink to automatically show the
PWB with a highlighted capacitor C2568.
– Click on the 'Schematic' hyperlink to automatically
show the position of the highlighted capacitor.
5.3.3How To Connect
1. First, install the ComPair Browser software (see the Quick
Reference Card for installation instructions).
2. Connect the RS232 interface cable between a free serial
(COM) port of your PC and the PC connector (marked with
'PC') of the ComPair interface.
3. Connect the mains adapter to the supply connector
(marked with 'POWER 9V DC') of the ComPair interface.
4. Switch the ComPair interface “off”.
5. Switch the television set “off” with the mains switch.
6. Connect the ComPair interface cable between the
connector on the rear side of the ComPair interface
(marked with 'I2C') and the ComPair connector at the rear
side of the TV (situated just below the main aerial input).
7. Plug the mains adapter in a mains outlet, and switch the
interface “on”. The green and red LEDs light up together.
The red LED extinguishes after approx. 1 second while the
green LED remains lit.
8. Start the ComPair program and read the 'Introduction'
chapter.
•ComPair firmware upgrade IC: 3122 785 90510 (only for
sets with software upgrade facilities).
•Transformer (non-UK): 4822 727 21632.
•Transformer UK: 4822 727 21633.
Note: If you encounter any problems, contact your local
support desk.
5.4Errors
5.4.1 Error code buffer
The error code buffer contains all detected errors since the last
time the buffer was erased. The buffer is written from left to
right. When an error occurs that is not yet in the error code
buffer, it is written at the left side and all other errors shift one
position to the right.

Use one of the following methods:
•On screen via the SAM (only if you have a picture).
Examples:
– ERROR: 0 0 0 0 0 : No errors detected
– ERROR: 6 0 0 0 0 : Error code 6 is the last and only
detected error
– ERROR: 9 6 0 0 0 : Error code 6 was first detected and
error code 9 is the last detected (newest) error
•Via the blinking LED procedure (when you have no
picture). See next paragraph.
•Via ComPair.
5.4.3 How to Clear the Error Buffer
The error code buffer is cleared in the following cases:
•By activation of the CLEAR command in the SAM menu:
•When you exit SDM / SAM with the STANDBY command
on the remote control (when leaving SDM / SAM, by
disconnecting the set from Mains power, the error buffer is
not reset).
•When you transmit the command DIAGNOSE-99-OK with
ComPair.
•If the content of the error buffer has not changed for 50
hours, it resets automatically.
5.4.4 Error Codes
In case of non-intermittent faults, clear the error buffer before
you begin the repair. These to ensure that old error codes are
no longer present.
If possible, check the entire contents of the error buffer. In
some situations, an error code is only the result of another error
code and not the actual cause (e.g., a fault in the protection
detection circuitry can also lead to a protection).

The set is switched to protection; error code 1 is placed in the
error buffer; the LED will blink 1 time (repeatedly). If this
happens, isolate each circuit to determine the cause. These
circuits are:
•X-Ray protection (PROTN). If this protection is active, the
most likely cause is the LOT. Detection via pin 3 of the
BOCMA (item 7301).
•EW protection (PROT-UP). If this protection is active, the
causes could be one of the following;
– Bad contacts of: horizontal deflection coil, linearity coil
5417, S-correction capacitor 2418/2419, flyback
capacitor 2414/2416, or line output stage.
– Short circuit of: flyback diode 6414, EW transformer
(bridge coil) 5478/5479 or 5474/5475/5476 (version
dependent), or EW driver 7470.
•High beam current protection (IBEAM). As the name
implies, the cause of this protection is a too high beam
current (bright screen with flyback lines). Check whether
the +200 V supplies to the CRT panel is present. If the
voltage is present, the most like cause is the CRT panel or
the picture tube. Disconnect the CRT panel to determine
the cause. If the +200 V voltage is not present, check
R3840 at CRT-panel and R3445 / D6445 at main panel.
Error 2 = Vertical protection (VFB). If this protection is active,
the cause could be one of the following (most likely in the
vertical output stage):
•7501 is faulty.
•Poor contact or open circuit of deflection coil.
•+13 V-VERT and/or -13 V not present.
Error 3 = Reserved
Error 4 = +5 V protection. If the 5 V protection is active, the set
is switched to protection, error code 4 is placed in the error
buffer, and the LED will blink 4 times (repeatedly).
A 5 V failure can cause a drop in the 5 V supply output,
resulting in an undefined behaviour of the set. Therefore, all
I2C devices connected to the 5 V supply are constantly
monitored. When none of these devices respond to the micro
controller for a prolonged time, the micro controller assumes
that there is a failure in the 5 V supply.
By starting up the set with the service jumpers shorted, the 5 V
protection is disabled and it is easier to determine the cause.
+5 V protection will be activated when these I2C devices fail
(no I2C communication):
•Main Tuner 1125 on main panel.
•ITT sound processor MSP34xx (7064) on the SSB.
The following tips are useful to isolate the problem area after
overriding the +5V protection. Determine whether:
•The +5 V source is working properly; isolate coil 5430 and
jumper 9044 and measure the +5V
•ITT sound processor circuit is loading the +5 V; isolate coil
5430.
•The tuner is loading the +5 V source; isolate jumper 9044.
•Main tuner circuit is loading the +5 V source; isolate coil
5261.
Caution: Overriding the 5 V protection when there is a 5 V
failure can increase the temperature in the set and may cause
permanent damage to components. Do not override the 5 V
protection for a prolonged time.
Error 5 = Reserved.
Error 6 = General I2C error. This will occur in the following
cases:
•SCL or SDA is shorted to ground.
•SCL is shorted to SDA.
•SDA or SCL connection at the micro controller is open
circuit.
Error 7 = BC-loop not stabilised (BCF = 1) Black current loop
instability protection. The possible cause could be a defect in
one or more of the RGB amplifiers, RGB guns or RGB driving
signals.
Error 8 = BOCMA IC TDA888xx I2C communication failure.
BOCMA (item 7301 on SSB) is corrupted, or the I2C line to the
BOCMA is low, or no supply voltage present at pin 14 and/or
pin 60 (3V3).
Error 9 = BOCMA IC TDA888xx 8 V failure (SUP bit). No
supply voltage at pin 53. Check NFR 3331 and coil 5333.
Error 10 = NVM I2C error. NV memory (item 7066) does not
respond to the micro controller.
Error 11 = Micro controller / NV Memory identification error.
During the last start-up, the NVM and the micro controller did
not recognize each other (e.g. one of them was replaced or the
NVM memory has been changed/adapted or lost); therefore,
the NVM was loaded with default values.
Error 12 = Microprocessor (item 7064) internal RAM test
failure.
Error 13 = Main Tuner I2C failure UV13xx. Tuner (item 1225)
is corrupted, or the I2C line to the Tuner is low, or nosupply
voltage at pin 9, pin 6 or 7 of the tuner.
Error 14 = Sound processor I2C error (MSP34xx). Sound
controller MSP3400 or MSP3410 does not respond to the
micro controller.
Error 15 = SRAM IC uPD431000A-B test failure (item 7070).
Error 24 = IO expander IC (IC7008 - PCF8574 on Dig. Interf.
Note: Error codes 1, 2, and 4 are protection codes and in this
case, supply of some circuits will be switched “off”. In addition,
in protection, the LED will blink the number of times equivalent
to the most recent error code.

Service Modes, Error Codes, and Fault Finding
5.5The Blinking LED Procedure
Via this procedure, you can make the contents of the error
buffer visible via the front LED. This is especially useful when
there is no picture.
When the SDM is entered, the LED will blink the contents of the
error-buffer.
Error-codes ≥ 10 are shown as follows:
•A long blink of 750 ms (which is an indication of the decimal
digit),
•A pause of 1.5 s,
•n short blinks (n = 1 - 9),
•When all the error-codes are displayed, the sequence
finishes with a LED blink of 3 s,
•The sequence starts again.
Example of error buffer: 12 9 6 0 0
After entering SDM:
•1 long blink of 750 ms followed by a pause of 1.5 s,
•2 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
•9 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
•6 short blinks followed by a pause of 3 s,
•1 long blink of 3 s to finish the sequence,
•The sequence starts again.
5.6Protections
If a fault situation is detected an error code will be generated
and if necessary, the set will be put in the protection mode.
Blinking of the red LED at a frequency of 3 Hz indicates the
protection mode. In some error cases, the microprocessor
does not put the set in the protection mode. The error codes of
the error buffer can be read via the service menu (SAM), the
blinking LED procedure or via ComPair. The DST diagnose
functionality will force the set into the Service-standby, which is
similar to the usual standby mode, however the microprocessor
has to remain in normal operation completely.
To get a quick diagnosis the chassis has three service modes
implemented:
•The Customer Service Mode (CSM).
•The Service Default Mode (SDM). Start-up of the set in a
predefined way.
•The Service Alignment Mode (SAM). Adjustment of the set
via a menu and with the help of test patterns.
See for a detailed description: Chapter 9 paragraphs
“Deflection” and “Power Supply” of the A10E Service manual.
5.7Troubleshooting Tips
In this paragraph, some troubleshooting tips for the deflection
and power supply circuitry are described.
position numbers 9409 (in this case the EW protection is
disabled). If the basic deflection is working (picture is
parabolic distorted), then the fault is located in the EW
circuit/panel. If there is no hor. deflection, the fault is
present in the basic deflection circuitry.
•Also, take note of protection circuits in the line output
stage. If any of these circuits are activated, the set will shut
down. Depending on protections, the LED will blink
according to the fault defined. In order to determine which
protection circuit is active, isolation of circuits is necessary.
These protection circuits are:
– High beam protection: See error “1”.
– X-ray protection: See error “1”.
•If the high beam protection or the X-ray protection is active,
it will switch the set to protection and the SDM is activated.
The service LED blinks repetitively 1 time. If this happen,
isolate each circuit to determine the cause.
5.7.2 Power Supply
To trouble shoot the A10 SMPS, first check the +5 V_STBY
voltage on IC7968, pin 3 / 4. If this voltage is not present, check
fuse 1961 and D6961.
If 1906 or D6917 is not open circuit, the problem might be
caused on the primary side of the switching supply. Check the
output of the bridge diodes at the cathode side of D6912/D6913
or D6915-pin 1 for approximately 300 V_dc. If this voltage is
missing, check the bridge diodes and the fuse. If fuse F1900 is
found open, check IC7921 (circuit A1) between pins 3 and 2 to
make sure that there is no short circuit present.
If the 300 V_dc is present on pin 3 of IC7902, check for a startup voltage of 16 V on pin 4 of IC7921. If this start-up voltage is
not present, check if R3914 is open (a short circuit between pin
4 and 5 will also cause this problem). It is necessary to have a
feedback signal from the hot secondary side of switch mode
transformer T5912 at pin 8 and pin 9 for the power supply to
oscillate. If this start-up voltage is present on pin 4 of IC7902
and the supply is not oscillating, check R3929 and D6929.
The A10 power supply has been designed with Over Voltage
Protection (OVP). To determine whether OVP is active, check
whether V_BAT (141 V) is present at IC7971 pin 1. If not, check
the components D6938, C2939 and C2940 and L5941. If these
components are o.k., then check voltage at pin 3 of IC 7942.
If this voltage is not present check fuse 1941 and fuse 1942.
Replace if necessary.
If the dc-voltage is present at pin 3, replace opto-coupler 7929.
Another way to confirm whether OVP is active is to measure
the voltage with an oscilloscope at IC7902 pin 4. If the voltage
is fluctuating between 11-14 V, then check the components as
described in the above mentioned paragraph.
5.7.3 Other Problems (related to CSM)
Picture problems
5.7.1Deflection Circuit
•Measure if the V_BAT (140 V) is present across 2939/2940
(A1 POWER SUPPLY). If the voltage is not present,
disconnect jumper 9936 and 9937 (see A1 Power Supply).
The whole Line Deflection stage is now disconnected. If the
voltage is present, then the problem might be caused by
the deflection circuit. Possibilities:
– Transistor 7410 is defective.
Note: If the C and E of 7410 are shorted, hick-up noise
can be heard from the power supply circuit
– The driver circuit around transistor 7481 is faulty
– No horizontal drive signal coming from the BOCMA IC
7301 pin 56 on the SSB

5.8Flash-card Handling For SW Downloading
5.8.1General
You must NOT:
•Use Sony writers.
•Format the cards.
•Use a flash-card from Apacer.
•Use flash-cards > 256 MB
You must:
•Use USB writers. Use a PCMCIA card adapter and a
laptop.
•Use brands Kingston and Sandisk for flash-cards.
•Use flash-card of sizes of 32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB and 256
MB.
•Use a DOS box or Windows Explorer to copy the two
images (FCL.IMG and IBOP.IMG) to the flash-card. Those
two files form a pair. Always copy both images (from the
same delivery!). Make verysure that the images, which
you are trying to install, are made for that particular board
model and that particular board version. In addition, the
Software version or model should differ from the version
or model, which is already on the board. If it does not differ,
no download will take place (unless the software on the
board was faulty).
•In order to make sure that the writing indeed has finished,
you must do the following before removing the card:
Software “Eject” or “Disconnect” the driver (should be a
command of your flash-card writer, which you can see
when you right-click on the flash-card drive from the
explorer.) If you forget this, not all data is flashed to the
card, resulting in incomplete files on the flash-card.
5.8.2Solving problems
In case of any troubles, first do the following to check whether
the copy was good:
1. Remove the flash-card (so that the cache memory is
cleared).
2. After 10 seconds, re-insert the flash-card.
3. Open a DOS box and type "fc /b <image on card> <image
on harddisk>".
This command does compare the copy of the image with
the original, which should not have any differences.
You put a flash-card in and the system does nothing. The
flash-card loader is copying the image to flash. This can take
up to 1.5 minutes (for large images).
Whenever you reset the board, an application is launched.
•Press the flash-card firmly into it's slot; if it is not inserted
properly the available application will launch
•Check (with an PC / laptop) that the flash-card contains
both a FCL.IMG and a IBOP.IMG.
•Always copy both images as the FCL.IMG and the
IBOP.IMG form a pair.
The flash-card images do not download (board keeps on
resetting or IBL is launched, or another application is launched
from NAND-flash).
•Make sure the Software Version you try to download is
different from the one in the box.
•Make sure the Hardware Version is set correctly. L0, L1,
and L2 boards all use different flash-card images.
•Make sure the contents of the flash-card are readable
(check with NT); try another flash-card and another flashcard writer on another PC to be 100% sure. Do not format
the flash-card.
Flashing of NOR-image does not work. Remove the stream
server (!).
Flashing of NAND-flash does not work. Check the size of the
IBOP.IMG image. It should not exceed +/- 15 MB.
Tip: If it is possible, one can remove the shielding from the
board. The IBO+ board usually contains two LEDs. During
flashing, they are orange. If the flashing succeeded, then the
LED will turn GREEN for 10 seconds. If the flashing did not
work, then the LED will stay RED for 10 seconds.
With these LEDS, you can see the difference between:
•Board does not even attempt to flash (images already in
this board or are not acceptable for this board).
•Board fails the flash-card download (images corrupt; flashcard unreadable: FCL.IMG not consistent with IBOP.IMG).
•Board succeeds (no problem whatsoever)
