OAD Transport Stream Image
To manage quicker mass reflashing, a predefined OAD DVB-T channel (freq:850MHz / bandwidth:8MHz) is embedded to SW core and only available into Factory mode. Some licensed IBL tools ('xxx2lli.exe', 'lli2dsm.exe',
dsmmerge.exe, …) from Intellbyte Inc
. might be necessary to create appropriate DVB SSU TS. Over some predefine settings such as repeated datablock insertion, null packets size, … (controllable in configuration file), here below are mandatory OUI entries structure to prepare DSM-CC carousel image format:
Note : SW Entry are referring to following PKG image file name “V8-0MT310x-LF1Vyyy.pkg”

model=CUST_OAD_SW_MODEL version=CUST_OAD_SW_VERSION vm=0xffff" %FILE%.pkg
Then, OAD TS can be completed using below command and arguments:
dsmsectn.exe -v -dvbssu -mpegts -patpmt -nit_ter -sdt -o%FILE%.ts -gTCL_HW5881.dbc %FILE%.dsm
For more robustness, TS can be played with following presets such as modulation:QAM-64, guard interval:1/8, coding rate:2/3 to ensure ~22Mbps.
OAD reflashing process is managed within 4 steps operation: multiplex detection, DVB transfer, flashing and warm-start.
UART & IR Parser
To use both UART and/or IR parser, TV has to be set in Factory mode with its VGA port well connected to suitable UART device or an IR emitter device correctly facing up TV (see below “Product Assembly - section 2.0”
how to activate “Factory key”).
The SoC’s RS232 mode is automatically enabled at power-on and doesn’t require any command initialization frame. <0x30 0x30 0x30 0x2E 0x30 0x65 0x30 0x74 0x30 0x0D 0xE2> from host to TV.
So correctly setup UART parser engine for further serial communication, it’s necessary to send following command frame <0xAA 0x06 0x10 0x01 0xA7 0xEF> within following COM presets 115200/8/n/1; “PS” caption might be toggled and displayed on bottom left screen (“S” like Serial) if successful.
To communicate with TV depending on SIACP revision layout implementation, you may need to fulfill UART/IR commands protocol and format described on enclosed SIACP requirements document (rev. v5.9).
ProjectID Modification
There are different IDs stored into system memory depending on different Panels settings and Models features, but there’s only one key branching ProjectID that includes all. So, it’s not recommended to modify PaneID with
Hyper terminal as other ID features may not change.
To modify ProjectID, you need to go through “Factory menu > Other > Project
 info > Project ID”, and then spin left or right with RCU “◄/ key” keys to suitable ID (Project name is dynamically refreshed)
Here below is none exhaustive ProjectID table for reference. Project list and all relative information are dispatched and updated as a new firmware package is released.

TPS54821
The TPS54821 in thermally enhanced 3.5 mm x 3.5 mm QFN package is a full featured 17 V, 8 A synchronous step down converter which is optimized for small designs through high efficiency and integrating the high-side and low-side MOSFETs. Further space savings are achieved through current mode control, which reduces component count, and by selecting a high switching frequency, reducing the inductor's footprint. The output voltage startup ramp is controlled by the SS/TR pin which allows operation as either a stand-alone power supply or in tracking situations. Power sequencing is also possible by correctly configuring the enable and the open drain power good pins. Cycle by cycle current limiting on the high-side FET protects the device in overload situations and is enhanced by a low-side sourcing current limit which prevents current runaway. There is also a low-side sinking current limit which turns off the low-side MOSFET to prevent excessive reverse current. Hiccup protection will be triggered if the overcurrent condition has persisted for longer than the preset time. Thermal hiccup protection disables the device when the die temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature and enables the part again after the built-in thermal shutdown hiccup time.

MT29F4G08ABAEAWP: 32GBIT (4G X 8 BIT) NAND FLASH MEMORY
Micron NAND Flash devices include an asynchronous data interface for high-performance I/O operations.These devices use a highly multiplexed 8-bit bus (I/Ox) to transfer commands, address, and data. There are five control signals used to implement the asynchronous data interface: CE#, CLE, ALE, WE#, and RE#. Additional signals control hardware write protection and monitor device status (R/B#).This hardware interface creates a low pin-count device with a standard pin out that remains the same from one density to another, enabling future upgrades to higher densities with no board redesign. A target is the unit of memory accessed by a chip enable signal.
A target contains one or more NAND Flash die. A NAND Flash die is the minimum unit that can independently execute commands and report status. A NAND Flash die, in the ONFI specification, is referred to as a logical unit (LUN). There is at least one NAND Flash die per chip enable signal.
