LOCK AND FACTORY INITIALIZE - SONY DIGITAL BOOK READER
Factory Initialize and Reset Device Lock
FACTORY INITIALIZE
This unit can be returned to the state of the factory shipment.
Touch the “Factory Initialize” in the test mode menu. (To know how to
enter test mode, refer previous post; here)
When “Yes” is touched, the deletion of all histories and reset of all
settings are executed, and then this unit turns the power off.
Update Waveform
LUT rewriting and the LUT update confirmation can be executed.
As for INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT, the parameter that rewrites the
screen of each FPL lot number and TFT vender are different. This parameter is
called LUT (Look Up Table). Therefore,
you need to rewrite the LUT when replacing the complete MAIN board or CHASSIS
ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT).
However, rewriting is not required if the FPL lot number and TFT vender
are the same.
Not Update Waveform
Note 1: LUT is written in IC2001 on the MAIN board.
Procedure:
The LUT confirm method is different according to replaced parts.
When the complete MAIN board is
replaced:
Disassemble this unit until the FPL lot number and TFT vender are seen,
and confirm the FPL lot number and TFT vender referring to the figure below.
Record the confirmed the FPL lot number and TFT vender by taking the memo etc.
When the CHASSIS ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT) is
replaced:
1. Confirm the FPL lot number and TFT vender described on the label of
new CHASSIS ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT). Record the confirmed
the FPL lot number and TFT vender by taking the memo etc..
2. Replace complete MAIN board
or CHASSIS ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT) for new parts, and
assemble this unit.
3. Confirm the following data to the service headquarters.
WF file corresponding to the recorded FPL lot number and TFT vender
WF file translation tool (wwv_parser.exe)
4. Copy the file and the tool obtained in step 3 to directly under the

in step 5 to the “data” folder made in step 10.
12. Copy the file for the test mode from PC to directly under the “READER”
drive of this unit.
Note 2: When the file for the test mode already exists directly under
the “READER” drive of this unit, the file for the test mode need not be newly
copied.
13. Remove this unit and USB cable (MICRO B) from PC.
14. Enter the test mode (Refer to “HOW TO ENTER THE TEST MODE” described

Procedure:
1. The VCOM voltage confirm method is different according to replaced
parts.
When the complete MAIN board is
replaced:
Disassemble this unit until the
VCOM voltage is seen, and confirm the VCOM voltage referring to the figure
below. Record the confirmed the VCOM voltage by taking the memo etc..
When the CHASSIS ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT) is
replaced:
Confirm the VCOM voltage described on the label of new CHASSIS ASSY
(including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT). Record the confirmed the VCOM voltage
by taking the memo etc..
2. Replace complete MAIN board
or CHASSIS ASSY (including INK INDICATOR 6inch ELEMENT) for new parts, and
assemble this unit.
3. Make the text file on PC, and write the VCOM voltage confirmed in
step 1.
Note 1: The VCOM voltage is described by the unit of mV that omits minus
(Example: Write “2030” when it is printed on the label as “–2.03 V”).
4. Press the [1] key to turn the
