Activating Monitor Mode Via LCD Menu

Note: The LCD menu cannot be used when the ProPalette
firmware is corrupted (only a blinking cursor appears on
the LCD display when the unit is powered on). In this case,
you must activate Monitor mode via the front panel buttons
or the digital board as described in the previous sections.
To activate Monitor mode via the LCD menu:
1 Turn the ProPalette power switch to on.
2 Select Diagnostics from the top level LCD menu.
3 Select Go To Monitor Mode from the second level menu.
The LCD panel displays "Film Printer in Monitor Mode."
Return to normal mode by pressing the reset button on the back of the ProPalette unit.

Displaying or Changing the Stored Serial Number

This section describes the use of the host side DOS utility SN.EXE, which displays or
changes the serial number stored in the ProPalette flash memory.
Serial number storage was implemented in the ProPalette with firmware version 564. The
serial number is stored in flash memory and is used by the firmware to define the correct
system parameters based on the hardware configuration associated with the serial
number.
The executable SN.EXE either displays the current serial number and board versions or
changes the serial number.

Viewing the Stored Serial Number and Board Versions

To view the serial number and circuit board version numbers stored in the ProPalette
flash memory, execute the following command from a DOS window:
By default, the utility accesses the COM1 port of the host computer.
The utility's help file is accessed with the command: sn ?
