USB memory used to update firmware
- Uncompress the firmware file.
- Connect the USB memory to the PC, and copy the extracted data [FW0002] to the root directory of the USB memory.
NOTE
• More than one firmware data with a single model can be stored in the USB memory.
• In this case, copy the firmware data to the USB memory according to the following procedures.
1. Make the folder named "FWSelect" (case-sensitive) to the root directory of the USB memory.
2. Make a folder with any folder name (one byte alphameric characters, maximum 40 characters) under "FWSelect" folder,
and store the firmware data to the folder.
Procedure
- Turn OFF the main power switch.
- Connect the USB memory containing the firmware into the USB port on the right side of the operation panel.

Action when data transfer fails
• If “NG” appears on the control panel, indicating that rewriting has been unsuccessful (in which case the Start key lights up red), take the following steps.
- Perform the data rewriting procedure again.
- If the procedure is abnormally terminated, change the USB memory for a new one and try another rewriting sequence.
- If the procedure is still abnormally terminated, change the board that has caused “NG” and carry out data rewriting procedure.
