New 2007 FPW received - What kind of panel / make is it?

Hi,

I entered the service menu as posted by turning off power then powering on with menu + '+' button, then '-' button.


I only see at the top left corner:


V1B18 [in white text]

Top Right/Center:

RT803 [in yellow text]



What make is my monitor? Is it S-PVA or S-IPS?


Thanks for any help

    By the way those are the default values if anyone needs them (anyone who accidentally messed up their RGB's!)

    Based on other reports of panel properties - most likely LG.Philips S-IPS.
    BTW, the color values in the service menu vary from monitor to monitor.

    The A03 PVAs have started showing up. The code for the PVA sceen is: PM330

    RT803 is S-IPS.

    Two PVA panels in a row showed up in hardocp forums, so I would say the panel lottery begins in earnest now.

    I just got my new 2007wfp today and it just so happens I have the same RT803 showing in the service menu of mine. And you say it's a S-IPS, is it better than the other types? What's the difference? by the way the monitor is awesome. My friend has the old 2005WFP and I have to say my picture quality is much better and it seems gaming is much faster than his.

    Thanks for the info on the service codes. Yay, I received a S-IPS. For anyone interested, I ordered it with a Dim 9200 at the end of October.

    Oh, and the back says Made in Mexico, and October 2006 Manufacturing date. It does not state the revision right above Made in Mexico, as I have seen on the 2007 FPW's at school (those say clearly A02, but they were made in 2005)

    So I guess I'm lucky ot get a September 2006 A03 made in mexico. And the S-IPS is the better of the panels I am assuming so sweet. Oh and does it maybe give the revision number beside the Made in Mexico portion that's where mine says it. And what the heck kind of school has Dell 2007WFPs as monitors? That's just wierd!

    All,

    The Burnin Mode should be OFF. I would like one of you to use the Reset Defaults option in the Service Menu to see if those settings change. Or, I can do it in the lab on monday.

    2007 Service Menu defaults -
    Burnin Mode = Off
    Offset 1 = Red 319 Green 231 Blue 250
    Offset 2 = Red 87 Green 66 Blue 70
    Gain = Red 382 Green 396 Blue 393
    PC Blue Preset = Red 203 Green 234 Blue 237
    PC Red Preset = Red 235 Green 234 Blue 198
    PC Normal Preset = Red 241 Green 255 Blue 251
    MAC Normal Preset = Red 241 Green 255 Blue 251
    DDC-CI (ISP) = On
    iTest = On
    Soft Dither = On

    Hey chrisM I couldn't get mine to change auto color, reset defaults, or offset1 everything else was adjustable so I changed my settings to reflect what you typed as default values I'm assuming.
