Preparation:
1) Read the PITCH sensor (SY-211 board SE510) sensitivity writ-

ten on repair parts, and named this as S

502

.

2) Read the YAW sensor (SY-211 board SE510) sensitivity writ-

ten on repair parts, and named this as S

501

.

With the direction mark of the angular velocity sensor located in
the lower left position, read the data value.

Perform this adjustment only when replacing the angular velocity
sensor or lens block. When the microprocessor, circuit etc. is dam-
aged, don’t perform this adjustment but check the operations only.

Before adjustment, read the following data and record them.
When the SY-211 board is replaced, read out the data before the
replacement, and record them.

Reading out method:
1) Read out the data in Block: 11, Page: 61, Address: 0E10, and

name this as Dp.

2) Read out the data in Block: 11, Page: 61, Address: 0E11, and

name this as Dy.

3) Read out the data in Block: 11, Page: 61, Address: 0E07, and

name this as Fpy (Note 2).

The previous data (Dp, Dy and Fpy) can be read from

the SY-211 board and it can be saved in the PC as a
file by using the Automatic Adjustment Program.
(Refer to “10-4. Angular Velocity Sensor Sensitivity
Adjustment”)

If correct data reading failed, replace the lens together

with the SY-211 board.

Note down the sensitivity displayed on the angular velocity sensor of
the repair parts. At this time, note down also to which board it was
attached to.
Be sure to check because if attached incorrectly, the screen will vi-
brate up and down or left and right during the steady shot operations.

There are only one type of a repair parts.

The sensor incorporates a precision oscillator. Handle it with care as
if it dropped, the balance of oscillator will be disrupted and opera-
tions will not be performed properly.

Preparation:
1) Read the PITCH data written on repair parts, and named this

as L

[Adjusting method]
1) Click the [Start] button of Camera Adjustment 9, and the fol-

lowing screen will appear.

The buttons on this screen provide the following functions.
[Read] button: Reads and displays the previous data (Dp, Dy

and Fpy

*1

) from the SY-211 board.

*1: The Fpy box is displayed, when you give a check to the

check box at lower left of “Input the PITCH/YAW and FN
data”.

[Save] button: Saves the previous data (Dp, Dy and Fpy) in

the PC as a file.

[Load] button: Loads and displays the previous data (Dp, Dy

and Fpy) from the file saved in the PC.

• Default file name is as follows:

2) Input the previous data (Dp, Dy and Fpy

*1

) into screen.

If the previous data cannot be read, give a check to the checkbox
at lower left of screen.
*1: The Fpy box is displayed, when you give a check to the

check box at lower left of “Input the PITCH/YAW and FN
data”.

3) Input the sensitivity of respective sensors (S

501

, S

502

) read at

“Preparation” into the screen.

4) Input the PITCH/YAW and FN data of lens (L

1

, L

2

 and Fpy)

read at “Preparation” into the screen.
If the lens was not replaced, give a check to the checkbox at
the lower left of the screen.

In order to get the correct value for the adjustment, it is
necessary to input a decimal point (“period” or
“comma”) as same format as windows setting because
“Numeric Value Format” depend on the language.
(F:123 456 789,00, GB:123,456,789.00,
D:123.456.789,00)
“Numeric Value Format” setting is available in “Con-
trol Panel”-“Regional and Language Options”.

5) Click the [OK] button, and the adjustment data is then calcu-

lated from the sensor sensitivity value and the calculation re-
sult is written to the memory in the camera.

6) Upon successful completion of the data writing, the following

screen will appear. Check that the steady shot function oper-
ates normally.
