Safety Instructions, Warnings, Notes, and Service Hints

2. Safety Instructions, Warnings, Notes, and Service Hints

EN 3DVD 620 /0X1 2.

2.1 Safety Instructions

2.1.1 General Safety

Safety regulations require that during a repair:
Connect the unit to the mains via an isolation transformer.
Replace safety components, indicated by the symbol ,
only by components identical to the original ones. Any other component substitution (other than original type) may increase risk of fire or electrical shock hazard.
Safety regulations require that after a repair, you must return the unit in its original condition. Pay, in particular, attention to the following points:
Route the wires/cables correctly, and fix them with the mounted cable clamps.
Check the insulation of the mains lead for external damage.
Check the electrical DC resistance between the mains plug and the secondary side:
1. Unplug the mains cord, and connect a wire between
the two pins of the mains plug.
2. Set the mains switch to the 'on' position (keep the
mains cord unplugged!).
3. Measure the resistance value between the mains plug
and the front panel, controls, and chassis bottom.
4. Repair or correct unit when the resistance
measurement is less than 1 MΩ.
5. Verify this, before you return the unit to the customer/
user (ref. UL-standard no. 1492).
6. Switch the unit ‘off’, and remove the wire between the
two pins of the mains plug.

2.1.2 Laser Safety

This unit employs a laser. Only qualified service personnel may remove the cover, or attempt to service this device (due to possible eye injury).

2.2 Warnings

2.2.1 General

All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to
electrostatic discharges (ESD, "). Careless handling during repair can reduce life drastically. Make sure that, during repair, you are at the same potential as the mass of the set by a wristband with resistance. Keep components and tools at this same potential. Available ESD protection equipment: – Complete kit ESD3 (small tablemat, wristband,
connection box, extension cable and earth cable) 4822 310 10671.
Wristband tester 4822 344 13999.
Be careful during measurements in the live voltage section.
The primary side of the power supply (pos. 1005), including the heatsink, carries live mains voltage when you connect the player to the mains (even when the player is 'off'!). It is possible to touch copper tracks and/or components in this unshielded primary area, when you service the player. Service personnel must take precautions to prevent touching this area or components in this area. A 'lightning stroke' and a stripe-marked printing on the printed wiring board, indicate the primary side of the power supply.
Never replace modules, or components, while the unit is on’.

2.2.2 Laser

The use of optical instruments with this product, will increase eye hazard.
Only qualified service personnel may remove the cover or attempt to service this device, due to possible eye injury.
Repair handling should take place as much as possible with a disc loaded inside the player.

Safety Instructions, Warnings, Notes, and Service Hints

2.3 Service Hints

2.3.1 Switched Mode Power Supply

This power supply unit has to be repaired down to component level in case of failure.

2.3.2 DVD Module

This module can be repaired as follows:
1. The VAL6013/01 is a combination of loading mechanism and DVD-mechanism. Both are not repairable units and in case of failure, it has to be replaced with a new loader VAL6013/01.
Note: When replacing with a new VAL6013/01 and DVD mechanism, two solder joints have to be removed after connecting the OPU flex foil to the mono board. The solder joints, which shortcircuits the laser diodes to ground, are for protection against ESD. Refer to figures 2­5 and 2-6 for location of solder joints.
2. The mono board has to be repaired down to component level. Repair handling of the monoboard requires a workshop with sophisticated desoldering tools.
VAL6013/01 Solder Joints

2.3.3 ComPair

For assistance with the repair process of the monoboard an electronic fault finding guidance has been developed. This program is called ComPair. This ComPair program is available on CDROM. The version of the CDROM for repair of the monoboard is V1.3 or higher and can be ordered with codenumber 4822 727
21637. This is an update CDROM, so when the ComPair CDROM is used for the first time, one has to install the ComPair Engine CDROM V1.2 first. The V1.2 CDROM can be ordered with code number 4822 727 21634 and has to registered after instalation. The procedure for registration is explained in the help file of the program and in the CDROM booklet. The cable to connect the monoboard with a PC can be ordered with codenumber: 3122 785 90017. All the hardware and software requirements of the systems, necessary for working with ComPair, are described on the CDROM.

2.3.4 Service Positions

Refer to dismantling instructions for dismounting of the board. Figures 2-7 to 2-9 shows the service position that are recommended during repair of the boards.

Diagnostic Software Descriptions and Troubleshooting

5. Diagnostic Software Descriptions and Troubleshooting

5.1 Dealerscript

5.1.1 Purpose of Dealer Script

The dealer script can give a diagnosis on a standalone DVD player, no other equipment is needed to perform a number of hardware tests to check if the DVD player is faulty. The diagnosis is simply a "error" or "pass" message. No indication is given of faulty hardware modules. Only tests within the scope of the diagnostic software will be executed hence only faults within this scope can be detected.
