2. SERVICE TOOL
2.1 Overview of the Service Tool
The service tool enables the print controller to operate with a terminal communications program for a personalcomputer (PC).This print controller supports for input/output operations of a serial port of the print controller from when theprinter system BIOS boots up, thus making it possible to control the progress in initialization and system test (orPOST: Power On Self Test) by BIOS, which assisting to determine where error conditions may exist when anerror develops at the system start time.Also, memory check and boot up a service DOS by BIOS are available with the terminal communication pro-gram.
2.1.1 Operating Environment of the Service Tool
The following is required to use the service tool.• Computers running on Windows• Hyper Terminal (terminal communications program)
Setting requirements
• RS-232C serial cable (terminated in a female 9-pin D-Sub connector on both ends)
Pin assignment
For information on installation and usage of Hyper Terminal, see the Windows manual and descriptions on thefollowing pages.
Bits/sec.: 9600 bits/sec.(fixed)

2.1.2 Installing / Booting Up Hyper Terminal
Hyper Terminal is a terminal communications program which comes with Windows 98/Me/NT4.0/2000/XP as standard. If it is not installed in your Windows 98/Me/NT4.0, it is necessary to install it.
Caution
• For Windows 2000/XP, it is installed by default. There is no need to install it.
• To install Hyper Terminal, the system program CD for the Windows PC in use is required.
• The procedure of setting up and booting up Hyper Terminal depends on the Windows version.
G. To install Hyper Terminal
In the following, Windows 98 is used as an example.
1. Insert the CD containing OS of the Windows PC in use into the CD drive.
2. Select [Start]-[Settings]-[Control Panel].• A [Control Panel] window will appear.
3. Double-click [Add/Remove Programs].• An [Add/Remove Programs Properties] window will
appear.
4. Click the [Windows Setup] tab, and check the [Connection] check box under [Components].
5. Click the [Details] button.• A [Communication] window will appear.
6. Check the [Hyper Terminal] check box, and click the [OK] button.
7. When the [Add/Remove Programs] window reopens, click the [OK] button.
• The necessary files are copied and the installation is completed.

H. To Boot Up Hyper Terminal
In the following, Windows XP is used as an example.
1. Select [Start]-[All Programs]-[Accessories]-[Com-munications]-[Hyper Terminal].
• A [Connection Description] window will appear.
NOTE
• Once a connection is made, an icon with the
name entered in the step 2 will be created. If
an icon has already been created (i.e., if the
printer connection settings have already been
done), there is no need to complete the fol-
lowing steps because the connection with
Hyper Terminal is established by double-
clicking that icon.
2. Enter a name, and click the [OK] button.
3. Select [COM (1-3)] under [Connect using], then click the [OK] button.
• A [Port Settings] window will appear.
4. Configure the port settings as shown on the left, and click the [OK] button.
NOTE
• The serial port settings on the copier can not
be changed.
• Leaving all the settings at their defaults
except [Bits per second] and [Flow control] is
required.

2.2 How to Use the Service Tool
The print controller carries DOS (Embedded DOS) along with the BIOS program on a flash ROM. This DOS
allows the print controller system to be recovered.
2.2.1 Booting Up Service DOS
1. Turn the copier’s main power switch (SW1) OFF.2. Connect an RS-232C serial cable between the
PC and the print controller.3. Boot Hyper Terminal. (See “2.1.2 Installing /
Booting Up Hyper Terminal”.)4. While pressing the [k] key, turn the copier’s main
power switch (SW1) ON (i.e., boot up the print controller).
5. The message “Press [a] or [s]” appears (7 sec-onds or less). Enter the [a] key.
• The DOS is boot up.
NOTE
• Do not press the [s] key because it is entry for
production purpose.
• If you do not press any key for 7 seconds, it
boots normally.
6. When the message “Enter new data (mm-dd-yy):” appears, enter the current date (ex: 04-01-2005) and press the Enter key.
7. When the message “Enter new time (hh:mm:ss):” appears, enter the current time (ex: 18:14:20) and press the Enter key.
• Now DOS commands are available for use.
NOTE
• Although the printer system (VxWorks)
acquires time information from the copier, the
service DOS has no way of communicating
with the copier: it is necessary to enter the
current date and time.

2.2.2 Memory Test Methods
The memory test needs to be conducted if, after in the cases such as an unstable operation is observed afterthe memory was expanded or a faulty memory size is detected.
The memory test includes a normal memory test and a detailed memory test.The normal memory test is a test conducted upon normal powering up.
The normal memory test includes the following:
In memory area of lower than 64 KB: Data read/write test, address test, and data test over theentire memory area.
Caution
• The detailed memory test is a test conducted over the entire memory area with a operation from
the service port.
The detailed memory test includes the following:
In memory area of lower than 64 KB: Data read/write test, address test, and data test over theentire memory area.
In memory area of higher than 64 KB: Data read/write test in 64 KB units.
I. Memory Test Procedure
1. Boot Service DOS. (See “2.2.1 Booting Up Ser-vice DOS”.)
2. While pressing the [m] key, turn the copier’s main power switch (SW1) ON.
• The detailed memory test is conducted.
3. Make certain that all memory tests found no problems (“Memory Passed” is displayed).
NOTE
• When all memory is OK, the copier is able to
normally start up.
4. Turn the copier’s main power switch (SW1) OFF.5. Unplug the serial cable.6. Turn the copier back ON to check if it behaves
normally.7. If any test results are faulty (The message “Criti-
cal Error is displayed”. Or, the value after the indi-cation of “Ext. Memory Passed” is less than the expanded memory capacity.), remove the added memory, and run the memory test from the beginning.

This table lists information about the symptoms, possible causes, and remedies for problems that may occurwith the printing system (combination of the print controller and copier). It is intended to help engineers findinformation as quickly as possible, and provide basic solutions.
Caution
• See the “Copier Service Manual” for information about Error Cord List.
6.1 Troubleshooting of the print controller and copier
Symptoms Causes Actions
[Controller] key on the Utility Menu screen is kept in gray out for 15 minutes after the power ON.
No power supply to the print controller.
Check if the print controller is con-nected with the copier properly.
“Warming up” does not disappear. Copier is in trouble. Locate the cause of trouble of the copier.
“Initialization” does not disappear on the copier screen.
The print controller has not started properly.
See the column of “Print controller does not start”.
Printout is defective, or nothing can be printed.
The system board or some boards of the copier are defective.
Put the copier in service mode and per-form test. If it operates properly, system board may be failure.
Print controller does not start. The system board is inac-tive.
Check the connector of the controller board. Replace the system board as necessary.
Software of the print con-troller is defective.
