    Right to left starting at 0 and ending with 7.

      You can input the binary number, but it is easier to input the number in Hex.

        I was looking at the service manual, for something else, when I spotted this

        We did it since they started to fail on A3 devices Sw187 to 40.

          Unfortunately I don't have the HEX for that switch, and it's been a while since I had to do binary biggrin.png

            That's why I'm asking the bulletin says switch 187, but the manual says 189 - switch 187 is for something completely different, it's for image quality. I've found a later bulletin that says to change 189 - not 187

              Bulletin is for A3 models and service manual you mentioned is for A4 models. Not the same my friend, not the same

              I know it's really confusing as Konica Minolta patched one after another mistake.

              187 hex 40 does nothing on A4 device instead we should use Sw 189 to set fan turning(constant noise) or not.
              Plus on A3 models we can set CPU fan run half speed/full speed or not at all while on A4 it's only ON/OFF.

              I know it's a mess but we are techs and should clean all sh.ts they throw at us
