I've attached the procedure for changing the battery inside the SC501 processor unit. if you didn't do this, you lost your data and must re-configure.

i already change the battery and missed to press exchange battery on system menu.. is it still ok if i go to exchange battery and start again? how to re-configure?
 
now it is useless to do because all configurations lost in first time. now for reconfiguration, you need to check the data input type, port selection, locate the data cable to identify the port, etc
 
suppose if it is connected to port 1 then you have to go into display menu to set port 1 data output setting according to your compass need.
