CONFIGURATION: Advanced User Procedures
The highest software feature level (i.e. 7015, 7020, 7025, 7030) of a
monitor is programmed into the serial EEPROM of the main processor
PCB. There are two ways of changing the software feature level. One way
is to dial a lower level and the other is to exchange the serial EEPROM
on the main processor PCB. The EEPROM should only be changed by
authorized personnel.
NOTE: The user may only change the feature level to a lower level than
the level installed at the factory.
There are times when a monitor may need to function at a lower feature
level than it was originally programmed at.
