INTRODUCING ISW
ISW
ISW (In-System Writer) is a process of updating the control programs stored in flash ROM mounted on various
control boards in a Konica digital copier without isolating the boards or the ROM from the copier. Running ISW
enables you to upgrade control programs without replacing the boards and maintain the boards during their
replacement.
Tools availab le for running ISW include ISW Trns (PC software), which connects a personal computer (PC) to the
digital copier, and ISW Tool, which is a dedicated tool using EPROM.
These tools can be plugged into the ISW connector of the digital copier to update the control programs in flash
ROM assembled in the copier unit and its options.
WHAT IS ISW Trns (ISW Transfer)?
ISW Trns is a software utility that runs under Windows to re write the flash ROMs in the copier . Connect the copier
to a personal computer using a parallel cable and execute this utility to rewrite the flash ROMs with data transferred
from the personal computer.
WHAT IS ISW Tool?
ISW Tool is a ROM writer device dedicated for rewriting the flash ROMs in the copier without using a personal
computer. Attach EPROMs to the ISW Tool to rewrite the flash ROMs with data transferred from the EPROMs.

The settings of the combo boxes selected are saved to the ISW Tr ns.INI file when you click File Send.
The ISW Trns program comes up with the ISW Trns main window prefilled with these combo box settings
when runs next time.
w Version selection frame
This frame lets you select which version of a transfer file you want transmitted when more than one
version is stored in a single folder.
e Send file information frame
List the files that are transferred actually on the basis of the information specified in frames q and w.
Click File Check to view a checksum of each file and its consistency (OK, NG or ??).
r File Status frame

When Select Type frame q is established, the
full-path folder name is displa yed to reflect the
data folder and the INI file information set up
in the option window . If the tr ansf er file exists
in a folder different from the data folder,
change the folder name to that f older by using
Browse u or rewriting the f older name directly .
Those transfer files in the folder that meet the
INI file conditions are listed in File list box y.
y Version File selection list box
Lists those display files existing in the folder
set in t.
Display Files are marked by a wildcard name
(such as 26nac*.b01) in the ISWTrns.INI file.
If multiple versions of a file e xist in the folder,
therefore, multiple versions would appear in
this list box accordingly.
Example: 26nac001AAA.bol
26nac002AAA.bol
The files in this list are sorted by name. When
the list opens, the last display item in the list
is preselected. Change the choice to establish
the version of transfer files to transmit.
u Browse Version File button
Click Browse button to open the folder
selection window and select a folder for t.
i Send file information display list
List the names of files that are actually
transmitted when a version file is selected in
y. A count of the number of files that are
actually transmitted is indicated in a checksum
file attached to each transfer file (write data).
If not all the transfer files are stored in folder
t or if extra files are included in it, the error
message “Send files not found or invalid file
name in the folder” is displayed. This check
is not made, however, on 7033 and 7040
transfer files that do not hav e a checksum file.
Clicking the File Check button in o calculates
a checksum of the display files as a whole
and compares it with the checksum stored in

the checksum file (*.SUM) attached to the
transfer file (write data), displaying the result
of that comparison.
o File Check button
Click this button when send files are listed in
the Send File Info list in i, and a file
checksum of the transfer files displayed (file
checksum) is calculated and attached to each
file. Further, the calculated checksum is
compared with the checksum storage file
(*.SUM) attached to the transfer file (write
data) to display the result of the comparison
in the following format:
[OK] = Matched
[NG] = Unmatched
[??] = Checksum file (*.SUM) not found
(This is displayed if it is of 7033 and
7040.)
!0 File Send Button
Perform transmission of transfer files
4. Parallel port setup
If a parallel data transfer is to be executed with
the ISW Trns program, the ECP mode setting of
the PC parallel port should be cleared. ISW Trns
does not support parallel data transfers. If a
parallel data transfer is launched with the PC set
in ECP mode, the transfer could be aborted by
an error occurring in between. It would be
necessary, therefore, to disable ECP mode
before run ISW Trns on a PC with the ECP
setting.
Step Procedure
1 Boot the PC.
2 Open the System icon in the Control
Panel and click the Device Manager tab.
Then, search for LPT1 in Ports (COM/
LPT1).
Note 1: If LPT1 appears as “ECP
Printer Port (LPT1),” then it is
an ECP port.
Note 2: If LPT1 appears as “Printer
Port (LPT1),” then it is a
regular parallel port.
3 With an ECP printer port, change the
BIOS setting of the PC to disable the
ECP port.
Note: Because the BIOS setting
depends on the PC, check with
your system administrator on
how to disable ECP mode.
4 When the BIOS change is complete,
open the System icon in the Control
panel and change the parallel port driver.
5 Run a send test to verify the successful
operation.
Note: If a transfer succeeds on one
copier model, then transfers
would be successful on all
models.
2 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Instructions on how to disable ECP mode are
given below.
