must conform to original layout upon completion of repairs.
Special components are also used to prevent x-radiation, shock and fire hazard. These components are indicated by the letter “x” included in their component designators and are required to maintain safe performance. No deviations
are allowed without prior approval by LG Electronics Corporation.
Circuit diagrams may occasionally differ from the actual circuit used. This way,
implementation of the latest safety and performance improvement changes
into the set is not delayed until the new service literature is printed.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to modify this product in any way. Never perform
customized installations without manufacturer’s approval. Unauthorized modifications will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage or
user injury.
Service work should be performed only after you are thoroughly familiar with
these safety checks and servicing guidelines.
GRAPHIC SYMBOLS
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the service personnel to important safety information in the
service literature.

CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK
OF FIRE, REPLACE ALL FUSES WITH THE SAME TYPE AND
RATING AS MARKED NEAR EACH FUSE.
SERVICE INFORMATION
While servicing, use an isolation transformer for protection from AC line shock.
After the original service problem has been corrected, make a check of the following:
FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all components are positioned to avoid a possibility of adjacent
component shorts. This is especially important on items trans-ported to and
from the repair shop.
2. Verify that all protective devices such as insulators, barriers, covers, shields,
strain reliefs, power supply cords, and other hardware have been reinstalled
per the original design. Be sure that the safety purpose of the polarized line
plug has not been defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspected to discover possible cold solder joints, solder
splashes, or sharp solder points. Be certain to remove all loose foreign particles.
4. Check for physical evidence of damage or deterioration to parts and components, for frayed leads or damaged insulation (including the AC cord), and
replace if necessary.
5. No lead or component should touch a high current device or a resistor rated
at 1 watt or more. Lead tension around protruding metal surfaces must be
avoided.
6. After reassembly of the set, always perform an AC leakage test on all
exposed metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna
terminals, handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without
danger of electrical shock. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER DURING THIS TEST. Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per
volt or more sensitivity in the following manner: Connect a 1500 ohm, 10
watt resistor, paralleled by a .15 mfd 150V AC type capacitor between a
known good earth ground water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts, one at a time. Measure the AC voltage across the combination of
1500 ohm resistor and .15 mfd capacitor. Reverse the AC plug by using a
non-polarized adaptor and repeat AC voltage measurements for each
exposed metallic part. Voltage measured must not exceed 0.75 volts RMS.
This corresponds to 0.5 milliamp AC. Any value exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. Never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely fitting
shelf space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated air flow.
2. Avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations where
dew is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor, etc.
3. Avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. The customer
should also avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that
might obstruct ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit must
follow the factory-approved mounting instructions. A product mounted to a
shelf or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent thickness in
spacers) to provide adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts or screws
used for fasteners must not touch any parts or wiring. Perform leakage tests
on customized installations.
5. Caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a tilted position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. A product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
Caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. Caution customers against using extension cords. Explain that a forest of
extensions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous consequences to home and family.

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION : Before servicing the HDD/DVD Recorder covered by this service data and its supplements and addends,
read and follow the
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. NOTE : if
unforeseen circumstances create conflict between the following servicing precautions and any of the safety precautions in this publications, always follow the safety precautions.
Remembers Safety First:
General Servicing Precautions
1. Always unplug the HDD/DVD Recorder AC power cord
from the AC power source before:
(1)Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,
module, or any other assembly.
(2) Disconnection or reconnecting any internal electrical
plug or other electrical connection.
(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an elec-
trolytic capacitor.
Caution : A wrong part substitution or incorrect
polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result
in an explosion hazard.
2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this HDD/DVD
Recorder or any of its assemblies.
3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean
electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact
cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner,
cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator.
Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication
of contacts is not required.
4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with
whitch instruments covered by this service manual might
be equipped.
5. Do not apply AC power to this HDD/DVD Recorder and/or
any of its electrical assemblies unless all solid-state
device heat sinks are cerrectly installed.
6. Always connect test instrument ground lead to the
appropriate ground before connection the test instrument
positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground
lead last.
Insulation Checking Procedure
Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn
the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter(500V)
to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resistance between each blade of the attachment plug and accessible conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1Mohm.
Note 1 : Accessible Conductive Parts including Metal panels, Input terminals, Earphone jacks, etc.
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged
easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are
called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of
typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field
effect transistors and semiconductor chip components.
The following techniques should be used to help reduce the
incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known
earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which
should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to
applying power to the unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES
devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such
as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or
exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grouned-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder
ES devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some
solder removal devices not classified a “anti-static” can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES
devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can
generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protec
tive package until immediately before you are ready to
install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with
leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam,
aluminum foil, or comparable conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from
the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective
material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the
device will be installed.
Caution : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or
circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged
replacement ES devices. (Normally harmless motion such
as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting
of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)

The format that records data through the creation of recorded marks by changing the organic dye material with a
laser beam.
[ Recording ]
Recording is done by changing the organic dye layer and the substrate with a laser When a strong laser is applied
to a disc, the temperature of the organic dye material goes up, the dye is decomposed and the substrate changes
at the same time. At this time, a durable bit is created as is the case with a CD-ROM.
[ Playback ]
Signals are read with the differences of the reflection of a laser from pits.

• Data is recorded by changing the recording layer from the amorphous status to the crystalline status, and played
back by reading the difference of the reflection coefficient.
Amorphous: Non-crystalline.
[ Recording ]
When a high-power laser is applied to the recording material, it melts and then becomes amorphous with a low
reflection coefficient when it quickly cools off. When a mid-power laser is applied to heat gradually the recording
material and then gradually cools it off, it becomes crystal with a high reflection coefficient.
[ Playback ]
A low-power laser is used for playback. The amount of reflected light depends on the status (amorphous or crystalline) of the recording material. This is detected by an optical sensor.
3) Recording format using phase-change recording material
( DVD-RW / DVD+RW )

To make recordings, it is necessary to modulate the write pulse, which is called “Write Strategy”.
There can be many types in Write Strategy. Typically Write Strategy for DVD ±R has NMP(Non Multi-Pulse) type and
MP(Multi-Pulse) type. In NMP type each single mark is created by subsequent separated short pulses. In MP type each
single mark is created by one continuous pulse.
Write Strategy for DVD ±RW has Type 1 and Type2. In Type 1 the mark with nT width is created by one top pulse and (n-2)
multi-pulses. Thus mark 3T is made by one top pulse and one multi-pulse. In Type 2 the mark with nT width is created by
one top pulse and (n-3) multi-pulses. Thus mark 3T is made by one top pulse only.
RL-02A uses MP type Write Strategy for DVD ±R and Type 1 for DVD ±RW as shown below.

4. OPTICAL POWER SETTING
<Test for checking DVD LD and CD LD>
When you change the Travers ass°Øy(including pick-up) or loader PCB, you must do the laser power setting to match
pick-up and loader PCB.
1) DVD LD power setting
• Select the DVD in the ‘Select Laser Diode’
• Press (Read Power On, Strong Read light)
•Measure optical read Power.
•Write read power value.
• In case of ,
you are able to measure the power through same procedure.
(caution) Don’t watch light directly.
• When you finish optical power measurement,
press button(LD Off).
•Press button.(save to ERPROM)
2) CD LD Power Setting
• Select the CD in the ‘Select Laser Diode’
• Press .
•Measure optical read Power.
•Write Read Power value.
•Press button(save to ERPROM)
*** In case of CD power setting of RS-01A, loader don’t need to set up
write power.
Although NMP, MP,Erase and HC power is N.G when you press setup,
please ignore the N.G message.
Because of RS-01A only support reading function about CD-R/RW.
* Look at reference sheet to test Optical Power.
**Power value is ß— unit. Value is read power X 100.

5. CONFIRM OPTICAL POWER SETTING PARAMETER
LD Test result is ok, but Loader performance is bad.
1. Check ALPC parameter value
1) Press button to open ‘Results Display’ dialog.
2) Press button.
- We can see optical power setting value.
- Write optical Power Setting value to paper.
- Adjust power setting again.
- Compare original parameter to new parameter.
- if parameter value is different highly, original
value is wrong or optical power may change.
- But pick-up LD test is all ok , just adjust optical
power setting again.

7. ATTACHMENT. OPTICAL POWER MEASUREMENT
Optical Power measurement is to adjust LD power from Pick-up
To measure optical power, LD status is on. Other light affects to optical power.
Avoid other light to measure exact power
Generally headlight power is about 50µW, Sun power is about 100mW.
Optical Power measurement method
1. Fit optical Power Meter
λ(wavelength) value to DVD.(generally 660nm)
2. DVD LD On.
3. Approach power sensor to Pick-up Lens about 3mm vertically. Fix Lens and Sensor mark position.
4. Read Monitor value. (move sensor read just a little and read max value.)
(caution) unit is mW.
5. Write monitoring value x 100. Only an integer.
6. Fit opticcal Power Meter
λ(wavelength) value to CD.(generally 780nm)
7. CD LD On.
8. 3 ~ 5 recheck.
