TEST MODE Note: Never perform the menu items unless otherwise instructed. Doing so may cause destruction of the data inside, which will make the camera unusable. To boot the test mode 1. While firmly pressing down both [DISP] and [UPPER], turn the power on. [UPPER] button 2.
PROGRAM VERSION UPGRADING 1. To update the firmware version 1. Prepare the memory card which contains the firmware for EX-S100 in the root directory. EX-S100.bin 2. Insert the above memory card into the camera, and set a fully charged battery in the camera.
2. How to restore the firmware 1. Prepare the firmware restoration program and change its name as follows; “lbn873-gm05.bin” “jupiter.bin” NOTE: This software and procedure automatically restores the firmware even if the firmware belongs to a wrong model code. Make sure to use the correct software for the correct model. 2.
<Writing the restoration program 1> 1. Copy the following software to the root directly of the SD card. Restoration software: lbn873-gm05.bin Firmware: EX-S100.bin 2. Change the name as follows; “lbn873-gm05.bin” to “jupiter.bin” 3. Insert the SD card into the camera.
*.adt (ADJ setting file. Sorted by models) * Place all files in the same folder. 2) Place the common test driver for CASIO/PENTAX in an appropriate place. 3) Place all of ADJ tool, USB DLL and ADJ setting file in the same folder.
