Tip from Lenny Zimmermann: Zenith IQB64W10W Service menu v4.7 (This should also be useful for the IQB56W10G)

Accessed by pressing and holding <Menu> until the menu disappears then pressing 9 8 7 6 <Enter>.

Pressing <Enter> or <quit> or waiting for several minutes will exit the menu saving any changes. In general  the minimum value for any of these is 1.

Those with a maximum value of 1 are generally switches, meaning that a 1 turns that function on while a 0 turns it off.

Those maximum numbers that have a + after them had a maximum level that I was not able to determine beyond the fact that it would increment beyond the number listed.

Those Max items listed with a blank were items that I did not change and therefore I do not know what the value range would be for that item. I’ve also discovered that those items that have a 21 before their name seem to affect all inputs (as do those without a designator), but that those items with a 70 before them affect all of the analog inputs, including the NTSC tuner, and that those with a BS starting their name affect the RGBHV input and possibly the ATSC tuner and component inputs as well. These should be mentioned in their respective Note fields.
