3-2. About data errors

Whenever you switch on the power of the SF Unit, it performs a self-check before beginning
operation. If the SF Unit detects a problem with the data stored in memory, it displays the following
message.
Note that once data is lost it cannot be recovered. Such data errors are generally caused by one of
the following problems.
• Interruption of battery power.
• Severe electrostatic charge, impact, change in temperature, or change in humidity.
• Hardware problem.
Once the Data Error display appears, you will not be able to input or edit data, though you will be able
to recall data after pressing CLEAR to clear the error message. In order to return memory to normal
(allowing further input and editing of data), you must perform the RESET operation to clear the
memory of all data. Before doing so, you may want to recall important data and write it down (if you
don't already have a copy). You can then re-input the data after clearing the memory.
