EEPROM RESET EEPROM Configuration

The entire area or the respective areas of the EEPROM can be separately initialized.

Select the desired area of EEPROM to be initialized

To initialize the desired area, firstly select the desired item from the EEPROM RESET menu. Change the selected item from CANCEL to EXECUTE. Then press ENTER.
a) WHOLE AREA
The entire area of the EEPROM is initialized. Initializing the entire area of the EEPROM has the same result as all menu items of COMMON, COLOR TEMP, PROG. PRESET, FIXED PRESET, LAST MEMORY, USER MEMORY and FACTORY are executed.
b) COMMON
Only the COMMON area of the EEPROM is initialized. When the COMMON area is initialized, the data that is unique to the particular machine and the common data (CONFIG MENU, REMOTE MENU) are initialized.
c) COLOR TEMP
Only the COLOR TEMP area of the EEPROM is initialized. When the COLOR TEMP area is initialized, the color temperature data in HIGH, LOW and the user setup data from 1 to 6 are initialized to 255. The users names are also initialized to “1” to “6”.
d) PROG. PRESET
Only the PROG. PRESET area of the EEPROM is initialized. When the PROG. PRESET area is initialized, the preset area (for 20 types) that is reserved as spare is initialized.

e) FIXED PRESET
Only the FIXED PRESET area of the EEPROM is initialized. When the FIXED PRESET area is initialized, the basic
preset area is initialized to the built-in standard value that is stored in the system controller.
f) LAST MEMORY
Only the LAST MEMORY area of the EEPROM  is initialized. When the LAST MEMORY area is initialized, only the last memory data of every signal that is adjusted by
 user is initialized.
g) USER MEMORY
Only the USER MEMORY area of the EEPROM  is initialized. When the USER MEMORY area is initialized, all of the 20 types of adjustment data that is saved by the MEMORY function of the user menu are initialized to EMPTY.
h) FACTORY
Only the FACTORY area of the EEPROM is initialized. When the FACTORY area is initialized, all areas of the MEMORY except the areas that are listed below are initialized.
Items that are not initialized by the “FACTORY” RESET function.
