SECTION 1

PRECAUTION

1.1 SAFTY PRECAUTIONS

Prior to shipment from the factory, JVC products are strictly inspected to conform with the recognized product safety and electrical codes of the countries in which they are to be sold.However,in order to maintain such compliance, it is equally important to implement the following precautions when a set is being serviced.

1.1.1 Precautions during Servicing

(1) Locations requiring special caution are denoted by labels

and inscriptions on the cabinet, chassis and certain parts of the product.When performing service, be sure to read and comply with these and other cautionary notices appearing in the operation and service manuals.

(2) Parts identified by the symbol and shaded ( ) parts

are critical for safety. Replace only with specified part numbers.

NOTE :

Parts in this category also include those specified to comply with X-ray emission standards for products using cathode ray tubes and those specified for compliance with various regulations regarding spurious radiation emission.

(3) Fuse replacement caution notice.

Caution for continued protection against fire hazard. Replace only with same type and rated fuse(s) as specified.

(4) Use specified internal wiring. Note especially:

• Wires covered with PVC tubing

• Double insulated wires

• High voltage leads

(5) Use specified insulating materials for hazardous live parts.

Note especially:

• Insulation Tape

• PVC tubing

•Spacers

• Insulation sheets for transistors

•Barrier

(6) When replacing AC primary side components (transformers,

power cords, noise blocking capacitors, etc.) wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals before soldering.

Consequently, when servicing these products, replace the cathode ray tubes and other parts with only the specified parts. Under no circumstances attempt to modify these circuits.Unauthorized modification can increase the high voltage value and cause X-ray emission from the cathode ray tube.

(12) Crimp type wire connectorIn such cases as when replacing

the power transformer in sets where the connections between the power cord and power trans former primary lead wires are performed using crimp type connectors, if replacing the connectors is unavoidable, in order to prevent safety hazards, perform carefully and precisely according to the following steps.

• Connector part number :E03830-001

• Required tool : Connector crimping tool of the proper type which will not damage insulated parts.

• Replacement procedure

a) Remove the old connector by cutting the wires at a

point close to the connector.Important : Do not reuse a connector (discard it).

cut close to connector

Fig.1-1-3

b) Strip about 15 mm of the insulation from the ends

of the wires. If the wires are stranded, twist the strands to avoid frayed conductors.

15 mm

Fig.1-1-4

c) Align the lengths of the wires to be connected. In-

sert the wires fully into the connector.

Metal sleeve

Fig.1-1-1

(7) Observe that wires do not contact heat producing parts

(heatsinks, oxide metal film resistors, fusible resistors, etc.)

(8) Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged or

pointed parts.

(9) When a power cord has been replaced, check that 10-15

kg of force in any direction will not loosen it.

Power cord

Fig.1-1-2 (10) Also check areas surrounding repaired locations. (11) Products using cathode ray tubes (CRTs)In regard to such

products, the cathode ray tubes themselves, the high voltage circuits, and related circuits are specified for compliance with recognized codes pertaining to X-ray emission.

Connector

1.1.2 Safety Check after Servicing

Examine the area surrounding the repaired location for damage or deterioration. Observe that screws, parts and wires have been returned to original positions, Afterwards, perform the following tests and confirm the specified values in order to verify compliance with safety standards.

(1) Insulation resistance test

Confirm the specified insulation resistance or greater between power cord plug prongs and externally exposed parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.).See table 1 below.

(2) Dielectric strength test

Confirm specified dielectric strength or greater between power cord plug prongs and exposed accessible parts of the set (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). See Fig.1-1-11 below.

(3) Clearance distance

When replacing primary circuit components, confirm specified clearance distance (d), (d') between soldered terminals, and between terminals and surrounding metallic parts. See Fig.1-1-11 below.

Power cord primary wire

Fig.1-1-8

(4) Leakage current test

Confirm specified or lower leakage current between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed accessible parts (RF terminals, antenna terminals, video and audio input and output terminals, microphone jacks, earphone jacks, etc.). Measuring Method : (Power ON)Insert load Z between earth ground/power cord plug prongs and externally exposed accessible parts. Use an AC voltmeter to measure across both terminals of load Z. See Fig.1-1-9 and following Fig.1-1-12.

Externally exposed accessible part

(5) Grounding (Class 1 model only)

Confirm specified or lower grounding impedance between earth pin in AC inlet and externally exposed accessible parts (Video in, Video out, Audio in, Audio out or Fixing screw etc.).Measuring Method: Connect milli ohm meter between earth pin in AC inlet and exposed accessible parts. See Fig.1-1-10 and grounding specifications.

1.2 Preventing static electricity

Electrostatic discharge (ESD), which occurs when static electricity stored in the body, fabric, etc. is discharged, can destroy the laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup). Take care to prevent this when performing repairs.

1.2.1 Grounding to prevent damage by static electricity

Static electricity in the work area can destroy the optical pickup (laser diode) in devices such as DVD players. Be careful to use proper grounding in the area where repairs are being performed.

(1) Ground the workbench

Ground the workbench by laying conductive material (such as a conductive sheet) or an iron plate over it before placing the traverse unit (optical pickup) on it.

(2) Ground yourself

Use an anti-static wrist strap to release any static electricity built up in your body.

(3) Handling the optical pickup

• In order to maintain quality during transport and before installation, both sides of the laser diode on the replacement optical pickup are shorted. After replacement, return the shorted parts to their original condition. (Refer to the text.)

• Do not use a tester to check the condition of the laser diode in the optical pickup. The tester's internal power source can easily destroy the laser diode.

4.4.2 Essential Check and Repair

Recording density of the video is far higher than the audio. Therefore video parts are very precise so as to allow only error of 1/1000mm or so in order to maintain compatibility with other videos. If one of these parts is polluted or old, same phenomena will appear as they are damaged. To maintain clear screen, regular check, replacement of old and damaged parts and oil supply, etc are essential.

4.4.3 Regular Check and Repair

Check and repair schedule is not constant since they vary depending on method that the consumer uses video and environment where the video is installed at. However, for the video used by common household, good screen will be maintained if regular check and repair per 1,000 hour is performed. The following chart shows relationship between using time and checking time:

4.4.5 Maintenance Process

4.4.5.1 Removal of Foreign Material

(1) Removal of foreign material from video head (Fig. C-9-4)

Firstly try to use a cleaning tape.

Use a cleaning patch if foreign materials are not removed

with the cleaning tape due to severe dirty of the head.

Soak the cleaning patch in alcohol and put it to the head tip.

Smoothly turn the drum (turning cylinder) to the right or left

(In this case, the cleaning patch must not be moved verti-

cally).

After completely drying the head, test the traveling status

of the tape.

If alcohol (Isopropyl Alcohol) remains at the video head, the

tape may be damaged when this solution touches with the

head surface.

Never use a cloth bar (commercial sale)

(2) Wipe the tape transport system and the drive system with

the cleaning patch soaked in alcohol (Isopropyl Alcohol)

when removing foreign materials from them.

1) The part touched with the traveling tape is called as tape transport system. The drive system consists of parts to travel the tape.

2) Care must be exercised so that unreasonable force to change the pattern will be applied to the tape transport system during removal of foreign materials.

PBC: Playback Control (Video CD only)

Playback control is available for Video CD (VCD) version 2.0 disc formats. PBC allows you to interact with the system via menus, search functions, or other typical computer-like operations. Moreover, still pictures of high resolution can be played if they are included in the disc. Video CDs not equipped with PBC (Version 1.1) operate in the same way as audio CDs.

Title (DVD video discs only)

A title is generally a distinct section of a DVD disc. For example the main feature could be title 1, a documentary describing how the film was made could be title 2, and cast interviews could be title 3. Each title is assigned a reference number enabling you to locate it easily.

Chapter (DVD video discs only)

A chapter is a segment of a title such as a scene in a film or one interview in a series. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number, enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Depending on the disc, chapters may not be recorded.

Scene (VCD)

On a video CD with PBC (playback control) functions, moving pictures and still pictures are divided into sections called “scenes”. Each scene is displayed in the menu screen and assigned a scene number, enabling you to locate the scene you want. A scene is composed of one or several tracks.

Track

A distinct element of audiovisual information, such as the picture or sound track for a specific language (DVD), or a musical piece on a video or audio CD. Each track is assigned a track number, enabling you to locate the track you want. DVD discs allow one track of video (with multiple angles) and several tracks of audio.

Sample Freq. (Frequency)

DVD

If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.

If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes each type of signal through without any further processing.

Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its capabilities.

Dynamic Range Control (DRC)

DivXDVD

With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.

Set to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc mix into normal stereo sound.

The PDC signal is transmitted by the broadcaster and this controls your video recorder’s timer. Currently only a limited number of TV companies transmit PDC signals. Please make sure that when recording from channels that do not broadcast PDC that you turn PDC OFF.
