Hi, thank you, i ve TX-P42S30B British model, and i wanted to convert it to European (model E), so it receives VHF channels
I do that by editing some part of the eeprom contents in the service mode of British models through the help of service manual of the same type of European model.
Panasonic had stopped highlighting part of eeprom codes in the service menu of both Plasma and Lcd from 2010 up to some current models.
So that was my main reason why i needed the screen shot image of it.
Many thanks.

Ok, so you have a british Tv, need eeprom data for the tuner frequency steps to correctly tune european channels.

I was unaware there was data out there on what was in the eeprom contents

That would be interesting for you to give us an example of that and how you did that in the past.

I know i found a site that showed there was an eeprom editor function which i managed to get up once but with no knowledge or experience never messed with it.

There would be another way though to achieve this.

Do you have any other panasonic TVs that are E versions on the same generation?

I agree they started making these manuals harder to use and stripping info, maybe because of the ease this info has hit the web.

If this was a 2010 model, would be easier but I'm thinking if you can identify the eeprom version fitted to the E and order those and fit or find a E version A board and copy the data onto the appropriate chip.

i've had a look at othe manuals of similar era but I'm getting nowhere but i know for me to convert a AUS board from a NZ one was really just the tuner data Eeprom
