As removing the cabinet (R) assembly (removing CN1005 of the
VC-283 board) means removing the lithium 3V power supply
(BT5201 on the CK-115 board), data such as date, time, user-set
menus will be lost. After completing adjustments, reset these data.
But the self-diagnosis data and the data on history of use (total
drum rotation time etc.) will be kept even if the lithium 3V power
supply is removed. (Refer to “5-4.Service Mode” for the self-
diagnosis data and the data on history of use.)

Setting the “Forced Camera Power ON” Mode
1) Select page: 0, address: 01, and set data: 01.
2) Select page: D, address: 10, set data: 01, and press the PAUSE

button.

The above procedure will enable the camera power to be turned
on with the control switch block (PS-2890, FK-2890) removed.
After completing adjustments, be sure to exit the “Forced Camera
Power ON Mode”.

Exiting the “Forced Camera Power ON” Mode
