EEPROM HANDLING PROCEDURE

WARNING:
Never execute Sim16 to clear U2 trouble WITHOUT investigating the root cause of U2 trouble by using the
following procedure:-
Never execute Sim16 to clear U2 trouble WITHOUT investigating the root cause of U2 trouble by using the
following procedure:-
1. Ensure to follow ESD procedures (using an earth strap) while handling the PWBs as EEPROM data may become
corrupted due to static charge.
2. Never insert the EEPROM to the socket in reverse.
3. U2 trouble occurs 100% if the machine is turned on after inserting the EEPROM in reverse. Execution of Sim16
to clear this U2 trouble will lead to corrupted data which cannot be fully recovered in the field.
4. Make sure that PCU, MFP & SCAN EEPROMs are not switched - label each EEPROM for identification purposes
before removing from the PWB.
5. Please handle EEPROMs with care to prevent bending or damage of pins.They will be broken if bent several
times. (This type of trouble has been reported many times.).
6. Do not use foamed styrol etc. for packing during the transportation of EEPROM. Foamed styrol easily
generates static charge. In some cases, EEPROM is damaged just by placing it into foamed styrol.
7. Make sure to use black sponge (anti-static) for packing during transportation. The black sponge is also used to
pack EEPROM provided as service parts.
CAUTION:
Please note that counter data and machine adjustment values are recorded in the EEPROM. If the data in EEPROM is
corrupted, it is impossible to recover. In such cases, the only solution will be to initialise the EEPROM therefore,
counter data and adjustment values will be reset to “0” or “default”. Once all the adjustment values are set to default,
it will be necessary to readjust all the adjustment values (ie. perform a complete run-up procedure).
Caution to prevent damage on EEPROM:
In case any trouble other than U2 occurs to the machine and the PWB has been replaced (eg. remove and reinstall the
EEPROM onto the replacement PWB for example) and U2 trouble occurs right after power on, never execute Sim16
under this condition.
As previously mentioned, the data in EEPROM will be corrupted after Sim 16 execution therefore:-
• In such cases, EEPROM may have been inserted in reverse or MFP and PCU EEPROM may have been switched.
• Turn off the machine without execution of Sim16, install the correct EEPROM into the proper position (on the
• Turn off the machine without execution of Sim16, install the correct EEPROM into the proper position (on the
PWB), power on the machine again and then execute Sim16. This way, U2 trouble should be cleared.
• Sim16 should only be executed to clear U2 trouble if it occurred without performing any repair or maintenance
as such.
As previously mentioned, execution of Sim16 won’t clear artificially-generated U2 errors. Instead, it may actually
damage the EEPROM, HDD storage and backup data.

Most data that is stored on the HDD can be backed up and reinstalled following replacement or HDD failure. If the
HDD is operating normally before replacement, backup the data and then reinstall the data onto the replacement
HDD.
The HDD contains the following data:-
