Initial Issue General Procedures & Information
dC132 Serial Number Synchronize Purpose This procedure synchronizes the serial number information on the components where it is
stored.
Serial number information is stored at these locations: MDM PWB - EEPROM (U80) - The replacement MDM PWB is spared without an
EEPROM. The EEPROM on the old MDM PWB must be removed and transferred to the
new MDM PWB.
IIT PWB - EEPROM (U4) - The EEPROM on the old IIT PWB contains IIT setup and cali
-
bration data; it should be removed and transferred to the new IIT PWB, if possible.
System Disk Drive - A System Disk Drive from Xerox Distribution must be used, other
-
wise, the machine will be unable to boot.
SBC PWB - SD Card (J10) - An SD Card from Xerox Distribution must be used, other
-
wise, the machine will be unable to boot.
NOTE:
In order to replace any one of the components listed above, you must power down the
system, replace the individual component, then power up the system. When the system pow
-
ers up, the replaced component’s serial number data will synchronize automatically with the
data on the other components. In such instances, dC132 need not be performed.
Initial Action Check dC122 for Communications faults (Chain 303). These faults can prevent serial number
synchronization. Resolve these faults before continuing.
Procedure Part 1 - Notify service support. NOTE:
It may take up to 24 hours to receive a password from ACAST.
1. Enter UI Diagnostic Mode. 2. Select Maintenance. 3. Select dC132 Machine Serial Number....
CAUTION
After the Unique Machine Identifier is generated, DO NOT touch the Generate New Identifier
Code button again, as this will invalidate the Password that will be provided.
4. Select Generate New Identifier Code. Record the Unique Machine Identifier. NOTE:
Follow all instructions included in the form. You must complete the form, print it, obtain
required signatures and data, then scan it.
5. Contact service support to obtain the form and instruction on how to complete the form. 6. Follow form instructions and warnings carefully. 7. Note that there is a cost for this service. 8. Fill in all the information. Print the comple ted form. Have your budget center manager sign
the form. If any information is missing, we cannot perform the service.
9. Have the National Technical Specialist (NTS, RSE or FE) forward a copy of service log
and proof of the location of the machine to
[email protected]. This information must
indicate machine location, customer name and address.
The proof must be a screen capture of the NTS/FE/RSE customer support database (account management database), FWSS, ICSS, DFM BT, VQMS, VALE, STPR, etc. The
information on the proof must match the information on the form.
10. Scan the completed form and e-mail to
[email protected]. Part 2 - Re-serialize machine 1. Enter UI Diagnostic Mode. 2. Select Maintenance. 3. Select dC132 Machine Serial Number....
CAUTION
DO NOT touch the Generate New Identifier Code button, as this will invalidate the Passcode
that will be provided.
4. Select Enter Passcode.... 5. Enter the Passcode received from ACAST in the box named Enter Passcode. 6. Select Enter. 7. Exit Diagnostic mode. 8. Switch the machine power off, then on. 9. Print a configuration report and verify that the serial number is corrected. The serial numbers are now synchronized.
