Samsung 226BW Service Function displays no panel info!

[jrosenzweig]

Two days ago i bought a 226BW. Great monitor and i like it already, even with a little backlight bleeding on the edges. Out of curiousity i wanted to know what panel i've got so i checked. Here's the results:

Service Function
Monitor On Time : 2Hr
Panel Ch. No. : 0
On Time : 2Hr
Cycle : 21

Auto Auto : On
Pixel Shift : Off
Country : English

Scaler-MCU : Genesis
<- Blank!
Version : M-ME22W0BAA-1002
Checksum: 87AA

Sorry that the tabs don't line up. Now the line labelled blank is meant to display the panel info as to whether it is S, A, or C manufactured. Is there any other way i can tell, perhaps through the serial number? To me personally this isn't a big deal about what type of panel it is, but i thought others may like to know about this.

Yes i read that thread but not in its entirety. I opened up the monitor case to find the code LTM220M1-L01 on both stickers - a 'S' panel

Now i can calibrate it. Thanks.

Where did you buy your panel from?

I bought it in Adelaide, Australia. Made in Dongguan, China. Date is July 2007. Sticker on the back of the removal cable panel is 22 July 2007 to be precise. Hope this helps.
