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.
(Machine before starting repair) PC PC (Machine after a board is replaced)
Save the EVR data Download the saved

to a personal computer. data to a machine.
Procedure 2
Remove the EEPROM from the board of the machine that is going to be repaired. Install the removed
EEPROM to the replaced board.
Remove the EEPROM and install it.
(Former board) (New board)
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) (Machine to be repaired)
PC
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.

32. Angular Velocity Sensor Sensitivity Adjustment
• Perform the angular velocity sensor sensitivity adjustment only
when replacing the angular velocity sensor or lens block. When
the microprocessor, circuit, etc. malfunctions, do not perform
this adjustment but check operations only.
• Record the sensitivity label of the angular velocity sensor (re-
pair part), including to which side of the board it was attached
to, etc. If it has been attached incorrectly, the image will move
up and down or to the left and right during steady shot opera-
tion. Be sure to take note of this.
Precautions on the Parts Replacement

There are two types of repair parts.
Type A ENC03RC
Type B ENC03RD
Replace the broken sensor with a same type sensor. If replace with
other type parts, the image will vibrate up and down or left and
right during hand-shake correction operations. After replacing,
readjust according to the adjusting method after replacement.
Precautions on Angular Velocity Sensor

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