2.1Description of the Production Number on the
type plate
The type plate of the set contains a production number that
consists of the following:
Example code
2.1.1The Site Code (Production center)
The site code consists of 2 letters and relates to the factory
assembling and/or equipping the products. The site code
letters valid for Consumer Electronics are stated in UAT-0477.
The code is used to trace the production site of the model
number,
e.g. VN...Szekesfehervar
KB...Hasselt
KT...SBI Electronics Shenzhen
2.1.2BOM Code
The BOM code is used to link the model to the actual Bill Of
Material used for assembly during set production. One set
model can be made up of different standard designs / modules.
This depends on the material availability in the production or
the development progress of the successor modules. Different
modules may be used during the same production period or
changed back and forth from one week to the other.
BOM version 1 gets BOM code 1, BOM version 2 gets BOM
code 2, etc. Allowed codes are 1-9, A-Z.
2.1.3Service Version Change Code
The service version change code, which has to be
recognizable for service and production departments, is used
to indicate a production change that is considered as a major
change affecting the “serviceability” of the product. A major
change is occurring when a safety component is changed or
when the servicer needs additional information to repair the
set. E.g. when the software is changed or when an IC and its
peripheral circuit are changed. Allowed characters are (A-Z, 0-
9) to be used in the following sequence: A-Z followed by 0-9.
2.1.4Production year/week code
Indicates the actual week of set assembly. Made up of the last
two digits of year plus production week.
2.1.5Serial number
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.
2.2.2Laser 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).

2.2Safety Instructions
2.2.1General 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.
2.3Warnings
2.3.1General
•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.
Page 6
EN 6DVDR730/0x2.
Safety Information, General Notes
– 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’.
2.3.2Laser
•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.
•Text below is placed inside the unit, on the laser cover

– In case the loader is defective or cannot be opened
electrically you can open the tray manually.
– Through a slot at the underside of the cabinet a slider that
unlocks the tray can be accessed.
However the slot is covered by an adhesive tape on the
cabinet of the drive to prevent dust coming into the drive.
Push through this adhesive tape by means of a thin
screwdriver and move the slider to the left, see picture 4-1.
– Make sure that an adhesive tape has been reapplied to
the drive when repair is finished!

Diagnostic Software
EN 41DVDR730/0x5.
Due to the complexity of the DVD recorder, the time to find a
defect in the recorder can become long. To reduce this time,
the recorder has been equipped with Diagnostic and Service
software (DS). The DS offers functionality to diagnose the
DVDR hardware and tests the following:
•Interconnections between components
•Accessibility of components
•Functionality of the audio and video paths
This functionality can be accessed via several interfaces:
1. End user/Dealer script interface
2. Command Interface
5.1End User/Dealer Script Interface
5.1.1Description
The End user/Dealer script interface gives a diagnosis on a
stand alone DVD recorder. During this mode, a number of
hardware tests (nuclei) are automatically executed to check if
the recorder is faulty. The diagnosis is simply a "fail" or "pass"
message. If the message "FAIL" appears on the display, there
is apparently a failure in the recorder. If the message "PASS"
appears, the nuclei in this mode have been executed
successfully. There can be still a failure in the recorder
because the nuclei in this mode don't cover the complete
functionality of the recorder.

The End use/Dealer script executes all diagnostic nuclei that

controlled by means of the front key buttons, but only by means
of the remote control.

5.4.3Command Mode Interface
Set-Up Physical Interface Components
Hardware required:
•Service PC
•one free COM port on the Service PC
•special cable to connect DVD recorder to Servi ce PC
The service PC must have a terminal emulation program (e.g.
Hyperterminal) installed and must have a free COM port (e.g.
COM1). Activate the terminal emulation program and check
that the port settings for the free COM port are: 19200 bps, 8
data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control. The free COM
port must be connected via a special cable to the RS232 port
of the DVD recorder. This special cable will also connect the
test pin, which is available on the connector, to ground (i.e.
activate test pin).
