| Philips | 2B | Reprogramming micro | In appliances whose serial no. begins with AG 06 or higher, a new uP (MAB8461/W155), a new memory IC (X2402) and for appliances with hyperband a new tuner (UV616S) or a new front end (FE616SQ) are used. The new uP (MAB8461/W155) can be fitted in appliances, whose serial no. begins with AG04 or higher. With this processor the required option is no longer selected with wire bridges and/or diodes, but must be programmed. Procedure: Switch off appliance.
With keys "Open memory" and "Colour +" pressed in, switch on appliance. In the display a 2 digit figure appears which represents the adjusted option code. With the "C/P+" or C/P-" keys set the required option code:
Tuner/Front-end Code
FE616SQ 01; FE618Q 02; FE616Q 03;
UV616S 09; FE616SQ/NICAM 09;
UV618Q 10; FE618Q/NICAM 10;
UV616 11; FE616Q/NICAM 11;
FE644 18; FE644/NICAM 26
Press "Store" key, now the appliance stores the option code and starts in the usual way.
The new memory IC can only be used in connection with the new uP (this memory IC is an EAROM, therefore the buffer battery fails). The new tuner (front-end) can also be used in appliances with the uP MAB8461/W132; in this
case though option diode 6866 must be removed. | plamensl | 14-09-2004 |
