[ RC-7508M ]
It is necessary to transfer data when replacing a circuit board. Vital
information about the water heater such as the settings and unit history
will have to be transferred to the new board. Please transfer data using
the following procedure. If the transfer is not successful, the unit will
not operate and a 73 error code will flash on the remote controller.
* Be sure to read.

When a circuit board is replaced, data must be transferred from the old board, otherwise a " 73 " error code
will flash on the remote controller and the unit will not operate.
After installing the new circuit board, please transfer data according to the following procedure:
1. With the power turned off, remove the remote controller connection from
connection number CN89. Also, if connected, undo system controller connections
before transferring data. In case of quick Connect Multi System (connecting system without a system controller),
keep the quick connect cord connecting.
2. Using the supplied transfer cable, connect the new and old boards by
inserting the cable in connection number CN89 of each board.
3. Turn the power on. The data transfer will be completed in about 30 seconds.
The unit will signal a successful transfer by rotating the fan and opening and
closing the gas solenoid valve.
4. After confirming a successful transfer, turn the power off. Remove the
cable connecting the new and old circuit boards. Reconnect system controller
and remote controller connections.
Data Transfer Troubleshooting
1. If this is the first time that the circuit board has been replaced:
Please follow the procedure "Initial Circuit Board Settings".
2. If this is the second time that the circuit board has been replaced:
Please follow the procedure "Circuit Board Resetting".
*If data has already been transferred to the board, follow the resetting procedure.
**Once data has been transferred to a new board, the transfer procedure cannot
be performed again.
*In the case of multi-installation(multi-system installation with system
controller), disconnect system controller and connect remote controller.
*In the case of the quick connect multi-system installations(multi-system
installation without system controller) leave quick connect cord connected
and connect remote controller.
*After replacing the circuit board, make sure all connections are made
to the board before making the initial circuit board settings.
1. In order to switch to maintenance writer, press and hold the or button with operation
switch off, within 10 minutes after power on. (The display blinks "99")
If it doesn't change the mode, remove the power plug and do the same operation as above.
2. By pressing , the address will advance one by one.
(10 11 19 1A 1B 3F FC FD FE FF 10 11 )
By pressing , the address will revert one by one.
(10 FF FE FD FC 3F 3E 1A 19 18 10 FF )
3. 'The data display' will blink by pressing 'set' button while item number displayed is blinking.
Then switch on/off by pressing the sellect button for 1 second.
4. Change "FE" and "FC" from OFF to ON in order to access the hidden maintenance writers.
(display blinks with "A0".)
5. Press to move the next item.
(A0 A1 AF B0 B1 BF 06 07 08 09 A0 A1 )
Press to move the former item.
(A0 09 08 07 06 BF BE B0 AF AE A0 09 )
6. Scroll to "06" the model number will be displayed in three digits in the data display.
7. Under a condition of displaying "Item No. 06", adjust the 3 digits model number to be set following
the procedure under "Model No. Changing Procedure" . (Refer model number to the model number
tables right.)
8. Set the model number following the same procedure as 5-7 for "Item No.07", "08", and "09" as well.
9. When all of the maintenance writers have been set correctly, press the 'Set' button.
(The display blinks the item number. )
And confirm the settings by pressing and holding both and buttons on the remote
controller until the controller emits a beeping noise. The new settings will be lost if this is not done.
Note 1. To cancel the settings, let the controller sit for 10 minutes,
or turn on the operation button. The information set previously
will be canceled. To change settings again, follow steps 1 through 9.
Note 2. Only change data as listed in the "Setting list" table.

1. Install the circuit board into the unit and make all wiring connections.
2. Within the first ten minutes of connecting power to the unit, perform
steps 1 through 4 of the "Initial Circuit Board Settings" procedure.
This should result in "A0" blinking on the remote controller.
3. If the "A0" maintenance writer is "ON" , press the 'set' button to blink the data
display. And press the sellect button for 1 second to change "A0" to "OFF".
4. Press the setting button to blinks the display's item number. And press and hold
both the and buttons on the remote controller until the
controller emits a beeping noise. The new settings will be lost if this is not done.
5. The operation above enables the data transfer for this board anew.
Next, follow "method of data transfer between boards".
1. Hundred's place : When the display blinks with "06" , press the 'Set' button.
(Then the hundred's place blinks.)
Under a condition of the hundred's place blinking, adjust the number
by pressing or .
2. Ten's place : Change the blinking place from the hundreds to tens by pressing the
'Set' button. And adjust the tens following the same procedure as
the hundreds adjustment.
3. One's place : Change the blinking place from the tens to ones following the same
procedure. And adjust the ones.
