Introduction
Software tools
A System Configuration step may be required at the end of your repair. System Configuration is a
postrepair software tool that completes the repair for genuine Apple parts. Running System Configuration
has a number of purposes that vary based on the part replaced.
After performing a display or logic board repair in Studio Display, a Mac with Apple Service Utility installed
is required to perform System Configuration.
Before initiating the System Configuration process, ensure that you have the following:
• The latest version of Apple Service Utility installed on a Mac running macOS Monterey 12.4 or later
• Internet access
• A USB-C charge cable or a USB-A to USB-C cable
Note: The USB-C cable must support both power and data. Don’t use Thunderbolt 3 cables.
System Configuration requires a strong Wi-Fi network capable of 1.0 Mbps download and upload
speeds, with less than 400 ms latency and less than 2% packet loss. Estimated data usage to run System
Configuration is 6–22 MB.

What System
Configuration does Why it’s important
Transfers factory
calibration values
Certain parts like displays, cameras, and ambient light sensors have calibration
values that are customized to each individual part during manufacturing.
These calibration values are required for proper functionality of True Tone and
Center Stage. Transferring these values ensures maximum performance and
quality after a repair.
Ensures repair
integrity
After a hardware repair, software checks are performed to ensure repair integrity.
Repair integrity means that a genuine Apple part has been correctly installed.
Updates
replacement logic
board with device
serial number

serial number in System Profiler.
Assigns wireless
region
To comply with regional communications regulations, a wireless region must be
assigned to your logic board.

and performance features.
