• Be sure to control soldering iron tips used for unleaded solder and
those for leaded solder so they are managed separately. Mixing un-

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and
bridges.
bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched”
or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors,
that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the
customer and recommend their replacement.

• Set the soldering iron tip temperature to 350 °C approximately.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit

1-2. PRECAUTION ON REPLACING THE SY-281 BOARD
DESTINATION DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, the written destination data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and execute the “DESTINATION DATA WRITE”.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and execute the “DESTINATION DATA WRITE”.
RESTORE DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, get the data from the former one.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and perform “RESTORE DATA” to get the data.
The data getting for this model is as follows.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and perform “RESTORE DATA” to get the data.
The data getting for this model is as follows.
• USB SERIAL No.

USB SERIAL No.
The set is shipped with a unique ID (USB Serial No.) written in it.
This ID has not been written in a new board for service, and therefore it must be entered after the board replacement.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and execute the “USB SERIAL No. INPUT”.

1-3. METHOD FOR COPYING OR ERASING THE DATA IN INTERNAL MEMORY
The data can be copied/erased by the operations on the HOME screen. (When erasing the data, execute formatting the internal memory.)
Note 1:When replacing the SY-281 board, erase the data in internal memory of the board before replacement.
Note 2:When replacing the SY-281 board, execute formatting and initialize the internal memory after replacement.
Note 2:When replacing the SY-281 board, execute formatting and initialize the internal memory after replacement.
Method for Copying the Data in Internal Memory
Copy
Copies all images in the internal memory to a memory card.
1. Insert a memory card with sufficient free capacity into the camera.
2. MENU
(Settings)
(Memory Card Tool)
[Copy]
[OK]
Notes
Use a fully charged battery pack. If you attempt to copy image files using a battery pack with little
remaining charge, the battery pack may run out, causing copying to fail or possibly corrupting the
data.
Images cannot be copied individually.
The original images in the internal memory are retained even after copying. To delete the
contents of the internal memory, remove the memory card after copying, then format the internal
memory ([Format] in [Internal Memory Tool]).
The data will be copied to the recording folder that is currently being used, with a number one
higher than the largest data number in that folder.
[Details]
Method for Formatting the Internal Memory or “Memory Stick Duo” media
Format
Formats the memory card or the internal memory.
When you use a memory card with this camera for the first time, it is recommended to format the card
using the camera for stable performance of the memory card before shooting. Note that formatting
permanently erases all data on the memory card, and is unrecoverable. Save precious data on a
computer, etc.

1-4. HOW TO WRITE DATA TO INTERNAL MEMORY
Usually, the camera has been set so as to disable the data writing from the PC to the internal memory of the camera.
This setting must be changed temporarily when the data is to be written to the internal memory such as a case after the board replacement.
To change settings is enabled with using the writing enabler tool (Write Enable Tool) on the Adjust Manual is activating from the Adjust Station.
