To restore factory settings or to purge settings, press the SERVICE key on the MAIN menu. This brings
forth the SERVICE menu as shown below.

Please be aware that changing the

memory contents by this
means changes more than
just the process values. See
section 3.20 for a complete
description.

Caution


Press the AS IS key once for PURGED, twice for FACTORY, thrice to
return to AS IS.

[See section 3.21, Check sum validation. See section 7.3, battery and memory loss.]

Press the ACCEPT (/ restart) key to accept the configuration as described by all of the key labels. This will
also cause the unit to REBOOT with the new configuration in effect. Please see the section describing the
SERVICE menu as there are groups of settings other than those which are PROCESS# related (Film
parameters, I/O programs, etc.) that will be included in this configuration. Valuable process
programming could be lost.
No I/O programs are factory restored because of the danger involved. Purge
will, however, clear I/O programs. See section 5.15 (table 5.4) for I/O program entry.

Press BYE to leave the SERVICE menu without accepting anything changed.

If the password is forgotten and programming has not been saved in some
other media, call factory to eliminate passwords without purging memory.
