E-P5 ... how to change # of focus points

Hi All,

Well, after my adventure trying to install firmware 1.5 on my E-P5, I now have a different problem. It seems in the PASM modes, I'm stuck on a 9 box autofocus pattern where a 3x3 grid covers the normal 5x7 grid area. No matter what I do, I cannot change it back to the 35 point pattern. I've looked at AF box size, AF magnification, using the Info button when in AF adjust mode, and more. Pages 40-42 in the E-P5 owner's manual do not help.

I have three MySets and they all properly use the 35 box pattern. But when I switch to the PASM modes, they all revert to the large 9 box pattern.

Can anyone offer advice? No need to suggest trying a pint of ale; I've already done that.
