Bravia KDL40W2000 Service Menu Options

[georgedingwall]

Hi all,

I found the service menu on my KDL40W2000 last night, and was wondering if anyone had any links to material which will explain the various adjustments that can be made in this menu.

I realise that this is, potentially, a very dangerous area to blunder around in, so I hope there may be some sites out there that can explain what the settings do.

Thanks for any help.

Bye for now.

Sorry! But am I the only one that has difficulty understanding this?

What's your point?

The service menu is a dangerous place to mess around in, if you don't know what you're doing. I don't know what I'm doing, but I read in many threads where people have adjusted the service menu settings to optimise the picture. Sometimes this has gone wrong and has cost a lot of money to put right.

As there doesn't seem to be a "Reset to factory defaults" as an option, I was asking if anyone had any links thaat might explain what the different options do.

So, what's the point of your reply? Are you saying I shoudn't go there at all, or are you just having a go at me because I don't know enough and have asked for help?

Bye for now.

chill man, he was just pointing out that it is a dangerous area. a lot of people want to know of such things and change settings just for a laugh - with predictable results, as you yourself pointed out

Anyways, check the main Sony W2000 thread and Lyris's site - for example he has a useful guide at http://lyris-lite.net/bravia_tips_wb.html. In any case, you really do need a hardware calibration device if you want to do something useful with those values.
