CONTROLLER
If the controller does not start up after a failed firmware download, use the following
procedure. This procedure will force the controller to boot from the IC card.
1. Prepare an IC card with the required controller firmware version on it.
2. Turn off the machine and remove the controller.
3. Change the DIP switch 1 - No. 1 setting to “ON”.
4. Put back the controller and install the card in the IC card slot on the controller.
NOTE: When you see the machine from the back, the “A” side of the card must
face the right side.
5. Turn on the machine.
6. Wait until the LEDs between the IC card slot and the parallel interface are both
lit (this may take 1 to 2 minutes.).
7. Turn off the machine, remove the card, and reset the DIP switch 1 - No.1
setting to “OFF”. Then, put back the controller.
NOTE: The default settings of the DIP switches are all ‘OFF’.
8. Turn on the machine, and print the service summary report.
