Overwrite and erase all data stored on the hard disk when you relocate or dispose of the machine. The device settings stored on the machine's memory are initialized.
For details about using the machine after executing Erase All Memory, contact your sales representative.
If the main power switch is turned off before "Erase All Memory" is completed, overwriting will be stopped and data will be left on the hard disk.
Do not stop the overwrite mid-process. Doing so will damage the hard disk.
We recommend that before you erase the hard disk, you use Device Manager NX to back up the user codes, the counters for each user code, and Address Book. The Address Book can also be backed up using Web Image Monitor. For details, see Device Manager NX Help or Web Image Monitor Help.
The only operation possible during the "Erase All Memory" process is pausing. If "Random Numbers" is selected and overwrite 3 times is set, the "Erase All Memory" process takes up to 3 hours and 29 minutes.
The "Erase All Memory" function also clears the machine's security settings, so that neither machine nor user administration will be possible. Ensure that users do not save any data on the machine after "Erase All Memory" has completed.
You must also format the data stored on the operation panel when deleting the data stored on the machine's hard disk. You can format the data stored on the panel in [Initialize Screen Features Settings] in [Screen Device Settings] under [Screen Features]. You can format the [Screen Features] settings, individual application settings, and cache memory.
