SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original problem, perform the following safety

check before returning the product to the customer.

FinePix S2 Pro (U/E) SERVICE MANUAL

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly

sol dered connections. Check the entire board sur

face for solder splasher and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires

are “pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particu

larly tran sistors, that were installed during a previ

ous repair. Point them out to the customer and rec

ommend their replacement.

4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvi

ous signs of deterioration. Point them out to the cus

tomer and recommend their replacement.

5. Check the B + voltage to see it is at the values specified.

6. Make leakage - current measurements to determine

that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the

supply circuit before returning the product to the customer.

1.General

Auto Power Off Function: If the camera is not used in any way for a set period, the Auto Power Off function

switches the camera off to prevent battery depletion and to avoid wasting power
when the camera is connected to the AC power adapter. Preview image display
is also cancelled when this function operates.

z The Auto Power Off function does not operate, when a USB connection is

being used, or when the Auto Power Off function is switched off during setup.

CCD-RAW: This is the image data prior to signal processing (the reconstruction of the data

read in from the CCD as an image). Because the signal processing is performed
on the computer, high levels of control are possible.

* To reconstruct images, FinePixViewer (on the enclosed CD-ROM) or the Hyper

Utility (optional) must be installed on your computer.

Color Temperature: Low-temperature light sources, such as a candle flame, are strongly red, while

high-temperature light sources, such as a gas burner flame, are strongly blue.
The color of the light for these temperatures is expressed as a color temperature
(K = Kelvin). The light of the sun at midday in a completely clear sky is taken to
be 5500K.

EV: A number that denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the brightness

of the subject and sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for
bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject
changes, a digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a
constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed.

When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1.

Likewise, when the light is halved, the EV decreases by 1.

JPEG: Joint Photographics Experts Group

A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The compression

ratio can be selected, but the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the qual­ity of the expanded image.

1.General

FinePix S2 Pro (U/E) SERVICE MANUAL

TIFF-RGB: A format for saving image data in which a tag indicating the file format is at-

tached to each item of data. Files stored in this format can be opened on a
personal computer.

WAVE: A standard format used on Windows systems for saving audio data. WAVE files

have the ‘‘.WAV’’ file extension and the data can be saved in either compressed
or uncompressed format. This camera use PCM recording.

WAVE files can be played back on a personal computer using the following

software:
Windows: MediaPlayer
Macintosh: QuickTime Player * QuickTime 3.0 or later

White Balance: Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object

still looks white. On the other hand, devices such as digital cameras see a white

subject as white by first adjusting the color balance to suit the color of the

ambient light around the subject. This adjustment is called matching the white

balance. A function that automatically matches the white balance is called an

Automatic White Balance function.

Exif Print: Exif Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a

variety of shooting information for optimal printing.

3-3.Description of the Main Block Functions
3-3-1 Overview of the New Technologies

A range of new technologies have been used in this model, and an overview of these is given below.

(1)Improved sensitivity*1 (ISO 1600) and better resolution have been achieved by using a new CCD element that utilizes the
3rd generation Super Honeycom CCD (HA-CCD) structure used in the FinePix S602 but increases the size to APS-film size
(23.3 x 15.6 mm), giving a 6.17 megapixel array with primary color filter.
(This new CCD provides a higher resolution than the FinePix S1 Pro without reducing the S/N ratio, while also allowing
photography at the low ISO 100 sensitivity.)

(2)The optical low-pass filter uses liquid crystal to minimize electrostatic charge, thereby reducing the amount of dust on the
CCD. The surface of the CCD O.LPF has also been given a hard coating to make cleaning easier and more effective.

(3)Image data compression and expansion is performed by the hardware (UCS1; IC306)*2, allowing shorter intervals
between shots at an image size of 4256 pixels x 2848 lines. (The same hardware as the FinePix-S602 is used.)

(4)The camera body used is based on the Nikon F80 camera and takes Nikon's interchangeable lenses.

(5)In response to strong demand from business users, a high-speed IEEE 1394 interface has been provided, along with the
addition of a CCD-RAW format recording function.

*1The Honeycom signal processing roughly doubles the valid number of image pixels, concentrating the data for 4 pixels
into one. This process quadruples the signal level (sensitivity), doubles the S/N (signal-to-noise) ratio and allows shots to
be taken at sensitivity settings up to ISO 1600.

*2The hardware (UCS1; IC306) consists of an M32R core, SRAM and a single chip that provides both the standard peripheral
I/O functions and the functions required by the DSC system. The standard peripheral I/O modules (CPU peripheral I/O
module) comprise an interrupt controller (ICU), system controller (SYSC), DMA controller (DMAC), clock controller (CLKC),
SDRAM controller (SDRAMC), block select controller (BSELC), serial I/O (SIO) interface, USB (USB) interface, multi-function
timer (MFT), watchdog timer (WDT), programmable I/O port (PIO), AD converter (ADC) and DA converter (DAC). In addition,
a JPEG controller (JPEG), signal processor (YCPRO), internal buffer controller (IBFC), AUTO processor (IBFC), media
controller (MEDIA), encoder (ENCD), character generator (CGEN), LCD controller (TFDC), IEEE 1394 interface (EXIO) and

MPEG-2 interface (EXIO) are included as the function modules required for the DSC system (image I/O modules).

3-3-2 Block function descriptions

(1) Imaging circuit (CCD BLOCK) (CAM BLOCK)
The analog video signals output from the new APS-size Honeycom CCD (APS-size 6.17-megaixel CCD) are processed
using false-color correction (CDS), optimized spacing (CDS), amplification (AGC) and signal mixing (CDS) in a single CSP­IC chip (IC501; abbreviated as SCS3A), before being converted (A-D) to 12-bit digital signals. The CSP-IC also incorporates
the "TG/SSG" function, previously provided as a separate IC, onto one chip. The converted digital signals are then sent to the
signal processing IC (abbreviated as UCS1; IC306; CSP).

(2) Image processor (PROCESS BLOCK)
(Input data from the CCD)
The 12-bit digital image data (the section corresponding to 1H) generated by the imaging unit (CCD-CAM BLOCK) is sent to
the signal processing IC (abbreviated as UCS1; IC306), where buffer processing is performed in the IC's internal buffer to
convert the signals to 32-bit (16-bit x 2) data (CCD-RAW data). The converted 32-bit data (CCD-RAW data) is stored in the
16MB SDRAM (IC307 to IC310) via the I/O bus for the image signal processing IC. The image data for each frame (4256
pixels x 2848 lines) is temporarily stored in SDRAM. Also, the 32-bit image data input to the signal processing IC (abbreviated
as UCS1; IC306) is used for additions performed by the AUTO computing unit and then sent to the CAM BLOCK SCS3A
(IC501) so that the optimal AE, AWB and AF values are obtained.
(Recording onto the SSFDC/Microdrive)
The image data stored in the SDRAM (IC307 to IC310) is sent one line at a time to the signal processor IC (IC306; UCS1;
CSP) via the I/O bus in the signal processor IC. In the signal processor, the data is unpacked and the following processes
are called: 16 bit -> 10 bit conversion; preprocessing such as digital clamping, gamma correction, and 10-bit -> 8-bit
conversion for the R, G and B channels; YC processing to convert the 8-bit RGB signals to Y:Cb:Cr=4:2:2, after which the Y,
Cr and Cb 8-bit image data is returned to the internal buffer. In the internal buffer, the 8-bit Y, Cr and Cb signals are sorted
into a data format that facilitates DCT compression before being recorded onto an SSFDC or Microdrive via the JPEG
calculation unit and media controller.
(Image playback from the SSFDC or Microdrive)
The compressed image data on the SSFDC is sent to the signal processing IC (abbreviated as UCS1; IC306) as 8-bit
image data and then sent to SDRAM (IC307 to IC310) via the media control unit, the DMA unit and the internal buffer control
unit. The image data temporarily stored in SDRAM (IC307 to IC310) is then returned to the signal processor IC (abbreviated
as UCS1; IC306) and sent to the signal processor unit via the media controller and JPEG calculation unit. The signal
processor unit performs postprocessing in which the 8-bit Y:Cr:Cb image signals are converted to 8-bit R, G and B signals.
At the same time, the character display signals are superimposed and sent to the LCD BLOCK.
The imaging system adjustment data is stored in F_ROM (IC314).
The 8-bit brightness and color-difference signals processed by the signal processing IC (UCS1; IC306) are D-A converted
in the image signal processing IC encoder unit and the display character signals are superimposed, producing analog
RGB signals. Video (a composite video signal) is also included at the same time in the B component of the RGB signal
output. When the VIDEO terminal is inserted into the camera, a composite video signal is automatically output by the detector.

(3) LCD Controller (LCD BLOCK)
The RGB analog signals output from the image signal processing IC encoder block are sent to the LCD controller IC
(IC201), where they are converted to digital RGB signals. The LCD controller IC also controls the LCD panel gradations at
the same time.

3-3-3.Description of the Power Supply Block Functions

The power supply circuit mounted on the MAIN PWB ASSY board generates a 3.3-volt (IEEE-IC IC1001, UCS1 IC306, SCS3A
IC501, CARD IC201, +16V/-9.0V (CCD power supply)), 7.5-volt (LCD backlight power supply) or 12-volt (LCD panel) supply.

3-3-4.Description of the camera body block functions

The main CPU governs AE calculation and control, AF calculation and control, shutter control, and all communication,
including communication with the DSC unit.

Generation of the power supply and the viewfinder LCD are directly controlled by the SUB CPU.

The interface IC on the MAIN PCB operates as an interface with the AF signals from the linear line sensor (in the CCD FPC)
and sends the AF data to the MPU. It then receives control signals from the MPU and uses these to drive the AF motor.

This IC also controls built-in flash charging and the viewfinder LED.

The camera adjustment parameters are stored in the EEPROM on the MAIN PCB.

The light-metering IC in the pentaprism FPC sends 6-zone light-metering data chronologically to the MPU on the MAIN PCB.

The AF motor drives AF lenses.

The CCD in the CD FPC is a linear line sensor that performs image detection for AF.
