I´m so following this thread....

It´s really intersting info you come across when you do the test with the different panels.

thanks for keeping us updated....

Next week I'm planning to place the missing VGA and DVI socket on the back.

As I've mentioned before, I've ordered the HD-Ready kit .

I'm probably missing the DVI module which can be placed in a free slot of the panel. (which I'm hoping it will be within the kit)

With the latest software 16.2 you're able to name a free slot PC, DVI-D etc.

The module I need is a module that you can use up to the latest panel. So it is a kind of investment. But if I will buy a newer panel then probably the DVI module will be fit as a standard option. But for now only a module costs less.

Beogen can confirm this about the D9/DVI? 

But the idea is to connect the VGA socket on a pc and will try to search for any hardware id.

Does anyone have a spare DVI module?  

I used to order the DVI module with type number TY-42TM6D

Did you order the Panansonic or the B&O one? The item number you mentined is the orginal Panasonic DVI module.

I have a G10 hd ready panel with a BS3, unfortuntely this does not work 100% as the BS3 always thinks as it is a G10 and has to be full HD. So with Auto detect you get no picture, but switching to the G9 HD Ready manualy does not let me choose all settings in the picture control menu (e.g. size)

I believe there are some settings within the Panasonic panel that tell it or tell a BS2 /BS3 that its got a Pana panal on the end of its connections.

You will need a Pana panal and a panasonic remote for this.

You need to get into the Panasonic service menu, in the CAT panal menu

CD mode

And there are a whole series of Address and Data values that need to be set to "B&O's" values

I would be interested to know what the original values are, but they may need to be changed.

PM me if you need more information, it's only of any use to people who want to drive a Panasonic Panel from a BS2 or maybe a BS3

Is this also valid for the later versions of the Pana Panel (eg D10?).  Would be interested to know what to change for a D10 HD ready panel...

Thanks, Marcus

Ok bdm01 🤒

As you mentioned the settings I remembered those!

On the site are the manuals from the D6 and the D7 panels.

In these manuals are the settings mentioned with the instructions. With these settings the panels will be recognized by the BS2 and probably the BS3 also.

There is also something about a special remote for repair, but that's rubbish! You don't need a special service remote!

I know and ordered yesterday an original pana remote which comes with the original pana screen.

That original remote has a button "status" which the consumer remote's don't have.

To get into the service menu of the pana panel you have to press and hold the vol - button (middle one out of the five) and press 3 times the status button on the remote.

Then you can enter the service menu and place the right numbers.

That's it.

But I don't know and didn't figure out if these settings are the same for the different panels.

I tried to download the pana remote instructions via the Logitech-site for my 525, but all instructions are available and work, but the status button isn't available 🙁 

So, that's why I ordered a second hand remote for my D6 panel. I think these remotes instructions will be the same for also the later models.

So, if I receive the remote, how can we get these ir catched, ok logitech can learn them, but how to distribute?

As you see, we're getting somewhere.....🤒

very interesting thread...

@beogen: i rec'd the pics and comments! thank you very much!

In a previous German post forummember Baddik mentioned that he used the B&O DVI module with better results. I can't remember what the difference was.

Appearently, I also have no control over the size menu, it's greyed out, but that's about it what I'm missing, I think...
