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.
DSC-F77/FX77
SECTION 6
ADJUSTMENTS
(Machine before starting repair)
Save the EVR data
to a personal computer.
Procedure 2
Remove the EEPROM from the board of the machine tha t is going to be repaired. Install the removed EEPR OM
to the replaced board.
PCPC
Remove the EEPROM and install it.
(Former board)
(New board)
(Machine after a board is replaced)
Download the saved
data to a machine.
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)
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.

Note 1: For details of how remove the cabinet and boards, refer
to “2. DISASSEMBLY”.
Note 2: When performing only the adjustments, the lens block
and boards need not be disassemble.
1) Connect the equipment for adjustments according to Fig. 6-1-
5.
2) Connect the adjusting remote commander to cradle with LANC
jack (J-6082-548-A).
Note 3: Setting the “Forced CAMERA mode power ON Mode”
1) Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 01.
2) Select page: D, address: 21, set data: 04, and press
the PAUSE button of the adjusting remote commander.
The above procedure will enable the camera power
to be turned on. After completing adjustments, be
sure to exit the “Forced CAMERA mode power ON
Mode”.

1-1-3. Discharging of the Flashlight Power Supply
The capacitor which is used as power supply of flashlight is charged
with 200 V to 300 V voltage. Discharge this voltage before starting adjustments in order to protect service engineers from electric
shock during adjustment.
Discharge procedure
1. Press the FLASH button (SY -81 board S855 (CONTR OL UP))
and set the NO FLASH mode.
2. Fabricate the discharging jig as shown in Fig. 6-1-4 locally by
yourself. Connect the discharging jig to the positive (+) and
negative (–) terminal of the flash voltag e charge capacitor . Allow ten seconds to discharge the voltage.
