4.1.26 SAVING DATA PROGRAMMED IN IC CARDS
If the machine has an optional Function Upgrade Card or Fax On Demand Card,
the card has to be removed from the IC card slot before doing one of the following
procedures:
? Downloading/uploading software
? Replacing the MFCE
? Replacing the MFDU or other components
Also in this case, System Switch 16 - bit 0 should have been set to 1 as explained
in section 3.3.9, to prevent the data inside the IC card from being initialized
accidentally.
So, do the following procedures to prevent data from being erased from the card.
NOTE: The data in the SAF memory card or hard disk will be erased if the card or
the hard disk interface is removed from the machine.
When downloading/uploading software
1. Make sure that System Switch 16 - bit 0 is set to 1, and that the battery switch
on the IC card is turned on.
2. Turn off the machine, and remove the IC card.
3. Connect the data copy tool and data copy board or MFCE, and do the required
procedure as explained in section 4.1.20 to 4.1.25.
4. After the downloading/uploading operation has been finished, turn off the
machine and disconnect the data copy tool.
5. Put back the IC card as it originally was, then turn on the machine.
6. Make sure that all the programmed data in the IC cards can still be used.
ICAUTION
If the machine is turned on without the card being put back in the lower IC
card slot, the machine recognizes that the card has been removed and all
the data programmed in the card will not be accessable any more.
When replacing the MFCE
When replacing the a defective MFCE, the new MFCE installed in the machine
must have the same SRAM data as the defective MFCE had, before the IC card is
put back.
1. Make sure that System Switch 16 - bit 0 is set to 1, and that the battery switch
on the IC card is turned on.
2. Turn off the machine, remove the IC card, and replace the MFCE.
Do not turn on the machine at this point.
