1-4. PRECAUTION ON REPLACING THE VC-535 BOARD
DESTINATION DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, the written destination data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
Refer to Service Manual ADJ, and perform "DESTINATION DATA WRITE".

USB SERIAL No.
The set is shipped with a unique ID (USB Serial No.) written in it.
This ID has not been written in a new board for service, and therefore it must be entered after the board replacement.
Refer to Service Manual ADJ, and perform "USB SERIAL No. INPUT".

About the PITCH/YAW Sensor Data
The PITCH data the PITCH sensor (SE9001) on LD-241 board uses is saved in the memory on VC-535 board.
Therefore, in case of replacing VC-535 board, the data for the PITCH sensor (SE9001) on LD-241 board is lost.
On replacing VC-535 board, cope with one procedure as following mentioned.
· Replace VC-535 and LD-241 boards at the same time.
· Replace VC-535 board and the PITCH sensor (SE9001) on LD-241 board at the same time.
