Error Handling
An error code is shown if an error occurs during the download. Error codes have the letter "E" and a
number. If an error occurs, the firmware is not correctly downloaded; see the error code table ( p.
180 "Handling Firmware Update Errors") and do the necessary steps. After this, download the firmware
again.
Power Failure
If firmware update is interrupted by power failure, the firmware is not correctly downloaded. In this
condition, machine operation is not guaranteed. You have to download the firmware again.
NVRAM Data Upload/Download

controller and the EGB are correctly connected.
Uploading NVRAM Data
Copy the data from the NVRAM to an SD card (referred to as "to upload NVRAM data" in this section)
before you replace the NVRAM. If you cannot upload NVRAM data, manually input the necessary
settings referring to the factory settings sheet stored inside the front door of the mainframe after replacing
the NVRAM.
