SERVICE PROCEDURE
TEST EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
1) AM/FM Signal generator
2) Digital Multimeter
3) Distortion lever meter
2) Digital Multimeter
3) Distortion lever meter
2. VFD segment illumination & text
This set do not have VFD segment check function because lack of u-com memory size
So For your checking VFD states according to each function
Please refer to owners manual process.
1. All Clear
This service program can clear all memorized operations and functions.
When the POWER ON, press the "AM/FM" button while pressing the "PRO LOGIC"button.
After this, Preset memory will be set to these frequencies.
