1. Before starting adjustment EVR Data Re-writing Procedure When Replacing Board
The data that is stored in the repair board, is not necessarily correct. Perform either procedure 1 or procedure 2 or procedure 3 when replacing board.
Procedure 1
Save the EVR data of the machine in which a board is going to be replaced. Download the saved data after a board is replaced.
(Machine before starting repair) PC PC (Machine after a board is replaced)
Save the EVR data to a personal computer.
Download the saved data to a machine.
Procedure 2
Remove the EEPROM from the board of the machine that is going to be repaired. Install the removed EEPROM to the replaced board.
Remove the EEPROM and install it.
(Former board)
(New board)
Procedure 3
When the data cannot be saved due to defective EEPROM, or when the EEPROM cannot be removed or installed, save the data from the same model of the same destination, and download it.
(Machine to be repaired) PC (Machine to be repaired)
Download the data.
Save the data.
(The same model of the same destination)
After the EVR data is saved and downloaded, check the respective items of the EVR data. (Refer to page 6-3 for the items to be checked.)

Note1: For details of how remove the cabinet and boards, refer to "2. DISASSEMBLY". Note2: When performing only the adjustments, the lens block and boards need not be disassembled. Note3: Before performing the adjustments, check the data of page: 0, address: 10 is "00". If not, set data: 00 to this address.
1)
Connect the equipment for adjustments according to Fig. 6-13.

Note4: As removing the MS-200 board (removing CN1005 of the VC350 board) means removing the lithium 3V power supply (BT501 on the MS-200 board), data such as date, time, user-set menus will be lost. After completing adjustments, reset these data. But the self-diagnosis data and the data on history of use (total drum rotation time etc.) will be kept even if the lithium 3V power supply is removed. (Refer to "6-4.Service Mode" for the selfdiagnosis data and the data on history of use.) Note5: Setting the "Forced Camera Power ON" Mode 1) Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 01. 2) Select page: D, address: 10, set data: 01, and press the PAUSE button. The above procedure will enable the camera power to be turned on with the control key block (SS6300) removed. After completing adjustments, be sure to exit the "Forced Camera Power ON Mode". (Operate the camera functions using the touch panel. When the control key block (SS6300) is removed, the function buttons of the adjustment remote commander are not effective even if the HOLD switch of the adjustment remote commander is set to the OFF position.)

When reading or writing the 1C page data, select page: 0, address: 10, and set data: 01, then select C page. The 1C page can be chosen by this data setting. After reading or writing, reset the data of page: 0, address: 10 to "00". 1. Initializing the 8, C, 1C Page Data
Note1: If "Initializing the 8, C, 1C Page Data" is performed, all data of the 8 page, C page and 1C page will be initialized. (It is impossible to initialize a single page.) Note2: If the 8, C, 1C page data has been initialized, following adjustments need to be performed again. 1) Modification of 8, C, 1C page data 2) Viewfinder system adjustments 3) LCD system adjustments 4) Serial No. input 5) Servo and RF system adjustments 6) Video system adjustments
2. Modification of 8, C, 1C Page Data If the 8, C, 1C page data has been initialized, change the data of the "Fixed data-2" address shown in the following table by manual input. Modifying Method: 1) Before changing the data, select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 01. 2) When changing the 8, C page data, select page: 0, address: 10, and set data: 00. 3) When changing the 1C page data, select page: 0, address: 10, and set data: 01. After completing the modification of 1C page data, reset the data of this address to "00". 4) New data for changing are not shown in the tables because they are different in destination. When changing the data, copy the data built in the same model.
Note: If copy the data built in the different model, the camcorder may not operate.
