Executing a system reset restores all machine settings to factory

default settings. It also refreshes the Flash Roms on the WIO/CPU,
NSDU, Power I/O, 5 Phase Driver, and the AC Spindle.

1. Power down machine.

2. Power machine ON, as it starts to boot up start tapping the

Scroll Lock key until the scroll lock light is lit.

3. The machine will boot up into the Shell menu with the [F6]
option Update System.

4. Press [F6].

5. Press [F2] for System Reset.

6. Press Enter key to reset system, or the Esc key to cancel.

7. Press [F2] for Beat system

8. Machine will then resume booting up.

 Boot Sequence

During the boot process and during system resets, communication is

established with the Flash Rom on each board in the Drive box. If any
one of these boards is defective, the system will lock up at that point
during the boot cycle. When the system loads properly you will see
“Now loading” at the bottom of the screen and the two-letter code that
follows (the board that would be loading). When system reset is
complete there will be a long beep.

*(UTSM only)

ISSUE/PROBLEM:

As of machine S/N 951386F, all BEAT 900 machines will have YN sewing heads
and contain a 486 processor board. The 486 processor requires new software
and has a different BIOS set-up procedure. The current software for the YN is
2.02EYN Rev 10.

This Tech Bulletin contains instructions for the following:

1. Setting up the new BIOS, specifically, changing the parameters for
the hard drive type.
2. Booting from a floppy disk.

SUMMARY:

The YN machine has five new boards which were not present in YS models.
There is now a total of six boards, if the optional UTSM board is included.

The Head Board and Color Change Board were changed to permit the detection
of nine needles. The CPU Board, Flash and Protect boards were also modified
to add the faster 486 processor and an enhanced video driver.

YS 486 Upgrade
YS models currently in the field can be upgraded to the 486 processor by adding
just the HF486SLF Board (EBN02181 2001-063-ADP-078), and Software
version 2.02EYS Rev 10.
Please note that you must use the customer's old Flash Memory Board and
Video/Protect Board. The new Flash Memory (EBN02182) contains a video
driver that will conflict with the video driver on the old Video/Protect Board.

In Cleveland using 902 YS Test machine
February 10, 2003

TO PREPARE A CONTROL UNIT FOR TESTING:

! Click on "Drive" and select "Exit to Shell"
! Hold down the Alt key and press F1 to shell out to DOS.
! Insert Disk 1 into Drive A.
! Type "A:" and press ENTER.
! Type "install" and press ENTER
! Swap disks and press ENTER until all 4 disks have been read.
! Remove last disk.
! Type "902AM700" and press ENTER.
! When DOS prompt appears, power down and power back up.
! When through booting, press the Frame Org. button.
! Click on Drive, then Open
! Double click on Earl.
! Click on OK and OK again.
! Verify hoop file is "Hoop02e0"
! Press the red Drive button, use the H and V buttons to position to clean fabric,
and slide the start bar to the left.

TO IDENTIFY THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN YN AND YS CONTROL UNITS:

! YS Units EBN01690:
! The middle board is filled with circuitry.
! A ribbon cable is plugged into the far end of the middle board.
! YN Units EBN02187:
! Almost no circuitry on the middle board.
! No cables plugged into the middle board.

MACHINE STOPS DURING BOOT, DISPLAYS "F1 to..., F2 to...."

! On YS Control Units EBN01690:
! Move Jumper on Flash Disk Board (Piggy back board) to pins 1 & 2
! Jumpers are near top of board, near the middle.
! Removing middle ribbon cable will make this job easier.
! There is no need to remove the board from the Control Unit.
! On YN Control Units EBN02187:
! Adjust DIP Switch settings on Flash Disk Board
! Switches are near bottom of board, about 2” from left end
! Switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 should be OFF, OFF, ON, and ON

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES
! Always shell out to NASH or DOS before powering down.
! Always kill power on back of keyboard first, then kill circuit breaker.
! From the NASH menu, Alt. F1 will exit to DOS.
! From DOS, type in “exit” and enter to exit to NASH menu.
! Test all YN Control Units with type 41 (130 meg) hard drive.
! Test all YS Control Units with type 6 (20 meg) hard drive, or use type 41 and
then reset CMOS settings back to type 6 before shipping.
! Read Write Errors indicate bad D: Drive (Flash memory)
! When no shipping boxes are available, use a 15x12x10 box (Uline S-4153)
! YN Control Unit: Hold down the [F2] key while booting to access BIOS settings
! YS Control Unit: Hold down [Ctrl] [Alt] and press [S] while booting to access
BIOS settings
! Scroll Lock during booting will abort and leave you in the NASH menu
! Control Units received from Japan will have the wrong software installed. This
will sometimes be the reason for not booting properly or hanging during boot.
! To update the system, from the NASH screen, press F6 and then F2.

 520 Mb Hard Drive BIOS settings.txt
520 Mb Hard Drive BIOS settings (For BEAT-900 machines)

Macpherson programmed a hand full of Hard Drives for the BEAT 900 at 520Mb.

Because of this, it requires special DISK settings in BIOS as written below.

Note: All the large capacity Hard drives produced from Barudan America, have been formatted to 130 Mb, with a
Type 41 BIOS Setting. This was done to avoid the problems with special settings and to set a standard HD Type.
Type 41 was also recommended because of it's stability with the BEAT 900 system.
