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.

6-2. SERVICE MODE
2-1.ADJUSTING REMOTE COMMANDER
The adjusting remote commander is used for changing the calculation coefficient in signal processing, EVR data, etc. The adjusting remote commander performs bi-directional communication
with the unit using the remote commander signal line (LANC).
The resultant data of this bi-directional communication is written
in the non-volatile memory.
1. Used the Adjusting Remote Commander
1) Connect the adjusting remote commander to cradle with LANC
jack (J-6082-548-A).
2) Adjust the HOLD switch of the adjusting remote commander
to “HOLD” (SERVICE position).
3) Turn on the power with the POWER switch of the unit.
If it has been properly connected, the LCD on the adjusting remote commander will display as shown in Fig. 6-2-1.

PageData Address
• Changing the address
The address increases when the FF (M) button is pressed,
and decreases when the REW (m) button is pressed. There
are altogether 256 addresses, from 00 to FF.
• Changing the data (Data setting)
The data increases when the PLAY (N) button is pressed,
and decreases when the STOP (x) button is pressed. There
are altogether 256 data, from 00 to FF.
• Writing the adjustment data
The PAUSE button must be pressed to write the adjustment
data in the nonvolatile memory. (The new adjustment data
will not be recorded in the nonvolatile memory if this step is
not performed)
2. Precautions upon Using the Adjusting Remote
Commander
Mishandling of the adjusting remote commander may erase the
correct adjustment data at times. T o prev ent this, it is recommended
that all adjustment data be noted down before beginning adjustments and new adjustment data after each adjustment.
Fig. 6-2-1
4) Operate the adjusting remote commander as follows.
• Changing the page
The page increases when the EDIT SEARCH + button is
pressed, and decreases when the EDIT SEARCH – button is
pressed. There are altogether 16 pages, from 0 to F.

2-2.DATA PROCESS
The calculation of the adjusting remote commander display data
(hexadecimal notation) are required for obtaining the adjustment
data of some adjustment items. In this case, after converting the
hexadecimal notation to decimal notation, calculate and convert
the result to hexadecimal notation, and use it as the adjustment
data. Table 6-2-2. indicates the hexadecimal notation- the decimal notation, calculation table.
Note : ( ) indicate the adjusting remote control unit display.
(Example) In the case that the adjusting remote control unit display are BD (bd).
As the upper digit of the hexadecimal notation is B (b), and the lower digit is D (d), the intersection “189” of
the1 and 2 in the above table is the decimal notation to be calculated.

by pressing the PAUSE button of the adjusting remote commander. In this case, take note that the test mode will not be
exited even when the main power is turned off.
• After completing adjustments/repairs, be sure to return the data
of this address to “00”, and press the PAUSE button of the adjusting remote commander.
Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 00.
