TABLE OF CONTENTS

SERVICING

For servicing CDR785/CDR786, the sets can be divided into two parts:

1. Except for the Power board (Switched Mode Power Supply) and the CD-R/W module the set has to
be repaired on component level.

2. The Power board and the CD-R/W module will be exchanged completely in case of a failure.

The defective CD-R/W module has to be returned for central repair.

© WARNING

All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to
electrostatic discharges (ESD). Careless handling during
repair can reduce life drastically.
When repairing, make sure that you are connected with the
same potential as the mass of the set via a wristband with
resistance. Keep components and tools at this potential.

f ATTENTION

Tous les IC et beaucoup d´autres semi-conducteurs sont
sensibles aux décharges statiques (ESD). Leur longévite
pourrait être considérablement écourtée par le fait qu´aucune
précaution nést prise à leur manipulation.
Lors de réparations, s´assurer de bien être relié au même
potentiel que la masse de l´appareil et enfileer le bracelet
serti d´une résistance de sécurité.
Veiller à ce que les composants ainsi que les outils que l´on
utilise soient également à ce potentiel.

d WARNUNG

Alle ICs und viele andere Halbleiter sind empfindlich
gegenüber elektrostatischen Entladungen (ESD).
Unsorgfältige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kann die
Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren.
Sorgen Sie dafür, daß Sie im Reparaturfall über ein Puls­armband mit Widerstand mit dem Massepotential des
Gerätes verbunden sind.
Halten Sie Bauteile und Hilfsmittel ebenfalls auf diesem
Potential.

ñ WAARSCHUWING

Alle IC´s en vele andere halfgeleiders zijn gevoelig voor
electrostatische ontladingen (ESD).
Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan de levensduur
drastisch doen vermindern. Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie
via een polsband met weerstand verbonden bent met hetzelfde
potentiaal als de massa van het apparaat.
Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op ditzelfde potentiaal.

i AVVERTIMENTO

Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduttori sono sensibili alle scariche
statiche (ESD).
La loro longevità potrebbe essere fortemente ridatta in caso di
non osservazione della più grande cauzione alla loro
manipolazione. Durante le riparationi occorre quindi essere
collegato allo stesso potenziale che quello della massa
delápparecchio tramite un braccialetto a resistenza.
Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili con quali si
lavora siano anche a questo potenziale.

©

Safety regulations require that the set be restored to its
original condition and that parts which are identical with
those specified be used.

After servicing and before returning the set to customer
perform a leakage current measurement test from all
exposed metal parts to earth ground, to assure no
shock hazard exists.
The leakage current must not exceed 0.5mA.

AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM.

WARNINGS & SAFETY

3-1

Welcome !

Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder / CD

Changer.

In the eighties Philips invented a new audio system - the CD.

The CD (compact disc) revealed to you the new dimensions of

digital sounds and added to the pleasures of audio.

Compact disc technology permits a high contrast in loud as

well as in quiet passages, with perfect channel separation.

Philips has now further developed compact disc technology

and the result is the CD recorder.

With your Philips CD Recorder/Changer, you can make your

own high-quality audio CDs (subject only to legal restrictions

on copying), either by recording at normal or high speed from

the Changer to the Recorder, or by recording from an external

source. And naturally, you can also play all pre-recorded audio

CDs, using one or both decks individually.

This manual gives instructions for operating this CD recorder

where:

– the figures (1) throughout the text indicate a sequence of

actions necessary to perform a certain operation;

– the arrows (➜) indicate the reaction from the recorder;

– the dots (•) indicate remarks, advice or special options

within a sequence of actions. The dot-marked instructions

are not necessary for the required operation.

All instructions in this manual are based on control via the

keys on the set. If there are corresponding keys available on

the remote control they can be used as well.

All redundant packing material has been omitted. We have

done our utmost to make the packaging easily separable into

three mono materials: cardboard (box), polystrene foam

(buffer) and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).

Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if

disassembled by a specialized company. Please observe the

local regulations regarding the disposal of packing materials,

exhausted batteries and old equipment.

As an

ENERGY STAR® partner,

Philips has determined that this product

meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for

energy efficiency.

– 2 Analog audio cables (with red and white plugs)

– 1 Digital coaxial cable(with black plugs)

– Mains cable

– 2 batteries for the remote control, size AA

– Remote control

Subject to modification without notice.

This connection is required if you want to make recordings

from an external CD player with a digital coaxial output.

1 For external recording, connect the cable 3 between the

DIGITAL IN-socket on the set and the DIGITAL OUT-socket

of an external CD player.

Note: Your set is equipped with a digital coaxial output (com-

mon output for CD recorder & CD changer deck). This

output can be used for digital playback. (e.g. Philips

receiver FR960 or FR970.)

This connection is required if you want to make recordings

from an external CD player with a digital optical output.

When connecting the Digital

Optical cable, make sure it

is fully inserted until

there is a click.

1 Remove the dust caps from the digital optical connection.

(We recommend you save the cap.)

2 For external recording, connect a fibre-optic cable 4 bet-

ween the digital optical input of the set and the digital-

optical output of an external CD player.

Note: For playback, the digital coaxial outputs or analog out-

puts of the CD Changer and CD recorder should be

connected to an amplifier.

your amplifier.

For external recording the following inputs are present:

– Digital optical input

– Analog input (stereo)

Use the audio cables supplied. Connect the red plugs to the

The connections you make will depend upon the possibilities

your audio equipment offers. Please refer to the user manuals

for your other audio equipment first.

Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best

performance in audio and usability (e.g. auto-track).

(The digital optical connection is less sensitive to external

disturbances).

If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high

quality Analog-Digital-Convertor of your set will ensure very

good audio performance when recordings are made from the

analog input.

Playback via the digital coaxial output of the CD recorder

gives the best audio performance.

When making recordings from an external source, we

recommend to do analog recording only if digital recording is

not possible. Digital recording will usually result in better

sound quality.

For external recording you can choose following recording

modes:

–

AUX CD

- to make an automatic recording of an external

source simply by starting the source.

–

AUX TRACK

- to make an automatic recording of a single

track from an external source simply by starting the source.

–

AUX MANUAL

- to start a manual recording from an

external source.

–

AUX MIX MIC

- to start a mixed recording of microphone

and external source input.

–

MIC ONLY

- manual start of microphone recording.

In recording mode tracks will be incremented automatically

such that the track numbers are positioned on the same

position as the original.

•Press as often as necessary TRACK INCREMENT on the

remote control during stop when CDR is selected to switch

the automatic track increment function on.

➜ AUTO TR ON is displayed and the function is

switched on. Track increments are now automatically

detected from digital source material. In analog source

material a silence of 2.7 seconds or more is detected as

a track increment.

•Press as often as necessary TRACK INCREMENT on the

remote control during stop when CDR is selected to switch

the automatic track increment function off.

➜ AUTO TR OFF is displayed and the function is

switched off. Track numbers can now be incremented

manually by pressing TRACK INCREMENT on the remote

control during recording. The minimum track length is 4

seconds.

Notes:

– Track numbers cannot be changed after recording.

– The automatic track increment only works with consumer

sources with a digital output signal according to the IEC

958 (consumer part) audio standard. DAT, DVD and DCC do

not deliver this signal.
