Upgrading Firmware
6.3
DR-R504X CD-ROM Writer contains two types of firmware. It con-
tains an EEPROM for system control. This EEPROM can be upgraded
through software. It also contains an EPROM for mechanical control.
This is only upgraded by replacing the EPROM. Contact Service for
additional information about replacing firmware.
CAUTION: Do not interrupt the upgrade process before the software
has been copied to the Flash EEPROM. If the process is interrupted

and it will need to be replaced. If this happens, call Service. See
Appendix E, Pioneer Technical Resource Numbers.
