OUTLINE
» The PC interf ace board progr ams hav e been updated as from the J anuary 2002 production in order to
improve the lip synchronization function.
» This SUPPLEMENT MANUAL discusses the program updating procedure. For to-be-reprogrammed
units from users, first check the programs’ version and then take their proper steps.

ËImproving the Z9000U units
(Program version-up for HTPC (Home Theater PC) compatibility, performance upgrading and lip
synchronization improvement)
The Z9000U units have been improved in the following 3 points. These improvements can be
confirmed by looking at the program versions.
Redesigned circuitry
Program version and PC interface version
z Z901819 and Z901905
(CPCI0051CE01)
x Z901927
(CPCI0051CE05)
c Z901Z25 - Z902220
(CPCI0051CE05)
To implement the above improvements from Level-z to Level-c, it is necessary to update the PC
interface board programs, modify the hardware, and change some parameter settings. There is no
need to replace the PC interface board itself. If this board is replaced, however, the background
setting must be additionally readjusted.
To get the Level-z unit compatible with HTPC, just update the programs. To upgrade the Levelxunit to Level-c, update the programs and make some readjustments. All these are discussed
below.

Upgrading from Level-z to Level-c
1) Checking the unit
» Select "ST ATUS" on the menu screen and look at the right bottom of the screen to check the program
version. If the version is "Z901819" or "Z901905", take the following procedures.
2) Jotting down the process parameters.
» Note down the existing settings specified below because there may be a problem during the
reprogramming. Your notepad can be used to confirm the settings after the reprogramming.
(1) Power on the unit and call the process mode.
To do so, use the keys on the remote controller or on the unit. Press the keys "INPUT → UP →
DOWN → ENTER → ENTER → MENU" in this order . Or just press the S001 s witch on the main
PWB.
Select "A/D , DLP and DTV" in this order on the process menu. Write down the follo wing parameters.
(3) Exit from the process menu. Press the keys in the same order as for entering this mode.

3) Modifying the hardware
» Remove the PC interface board from the unit. Make the following modifications.
(1) Add two jumper leads.
Connect one jumper between TL88 and TL136 and the other between TL87 and TL140. Apply
adhesive to the specified points to secure the jumpers. Refer to the attachment file “0051 Modifications”.
(2) Change the resistor constants.
Change the constants of the following jumper resistors on the board.
If any of them has been accidentally deleted, reenter the same value.
» Enter the process menu "SSS" and click on "S2".
» For readjusting the video line, refer to the Service Manual.
Feed the NTSC video signal to the "INPUT4" pin. Make sure the signal has clear white level
(100% white) and black level (0% black) (setup at 0%). Select "VIDEO1" on the process menu.
Adjust the "BRIGHT" setting until a bit dropout occurs at the black side. Then adjust the "CONTRAST" setting until a bit dropout occurs at the white side.
» Enter the process menu "SSS", click on "S4" and exit from this process.

Upgrading from Level-x to Level-c
(No modifications on the hardware)
1) Checking the unit
»
Select "ST ATUS" on the menu screen and look at the right bottom of the screen to check the program
version. If the version is "Z901927", take the following procedures.
2) Jotting down the process parameters.
» Do the same as for the upgrading from Level-z to Level-c.
Select "VIDEO1" on the process menu and write down the "CONTRAST" and "BRIGHT" settings
too.
3) Updating the programs
» Get the following two programs updated:
Main programZ9000_020220.bhx
CVIC programcvic_AB_Z9000_1219al.bhx
Take the same steps as for the upgrading from Level-z to Level-c.
4) Checking and readjusting the process data
» Check the "A/D, DLP and DTV" settings on the process menu.
» Enter the process menu "SSS" and click on "S2".
» Select "VIDEO1" on the process menu. Enter the noted-down values in the "CONTRAST" and
"BRIGHT" settings. There is no need to readjust the other "VIDEO1" settings.
» Enter the process menu "SSS", click on "S4" and exit from this process.
Upgrading the Level-z unit for HTPC compatibility
(No modifications on the hardware)
1) Checking the unit
» Select "STATUS" on the menu screen and look at the right bottom of the screen to check the
program version. If the version is "Z901819" or "Z901905", take the following procedures.

» RS232C terminal (No problem if compatible with SVM or SAPS)
For this programming, the oper ator must be able to do the follo wing levels of running the computer.
» Opening specified folders on a "Windows95/98" machine.
» Double-clicking to run files.
» Decompressing "Zip" files.
In the screen displays below, the circle means that you move the cursor there and click the mouse,
where the circle indicates that you look there and confirm.
Reprogramming for the projector
<Preparations>
Installing the write program and the data program
The "TeraTermPro" communication program is used for this programming.
Note:
If your computer already has the "TeraT ermPro" progr am installed, once uninstall this program and
reinstall it in the following procedure. (This is because the program may fail to work depending on the
computer’s operating environment.) Refer to Paragraph 2) at the end of this manual.
