Safety Information, General Notes
2.Safety Information, General Notes
2.1Safety Instructions
2.1.1General 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.
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 M
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.
2.1.2Laser 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).
Ω.
2.2Warnings
2.2.1General
•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.
– 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’.
2.2.2Laser
•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

When you install your DVD recorder for the first time, select one of the following options:
'Connecting with a scart cable and Easy Link'
If your TV set is equipped with 'Easy Link, Cinema Link, NexTView Link, Q-Link, Smart Link,
Megalogic, Datalogic, ...' and you wish to use a scart cable.
What is Easy Link?
If your TV set is equipped with functions such as Easy Link, Cinema Link,
NexTView Link, Q-Link, Smart Link, Megalogic or Datalogic, which are fully
compatible with one another (TV set, DVD recorder, etc.), your DVD
recorder can exchange information with your TV set. Please see your TV's
operating instructions.
?
'Connecting with a scart cable without Easy Link'
If your TV set is not equipped with 'Easy Link, Cinema Link, NexTView Link, Q-Link, Smart Link,,
Megalogic, Datalogic, ...' and you wish to use a scart cable.
'Connecting with an SVideo (Y/C) cable'
If your TV set is equipped with an S-Video (SVHS) socket.
What is an 'SVideo (Y/C) cable'?
This connecting cable, also known as the SVHS cable, is used to transmit the
brightness signal (Y signal) and colour signal (C signal) separately. This mini
DIN socket/plug is also called a Hosiden socket/plug.
?
'Connecting with video (CVBS) cable'
If your TV set is equipped only with a video (CVBS) socket.
What is 'Video (CVBS)'?
This socket, usually referred to as the Cinch socket, is used for transmitting
the composite video signal (FBAS, CVBS). In this method of transmission the
colour signal and the brightness signal are transmitted on the same cable. In
certain circumstances, this can lead to problems with the picture, such as
'Moiré' patterns.

The necessary cable connections must be made before you can record or playback TV
programmes using your DVD recorder.
Connect the DVD recorder directly to your TV set. If there is a video recorder in between
the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD
recorder.
We recommend that you use a scart cable to connect your TV set and DVD recorder.

General information
Programming a recording (TIMER)
Use programmed recording (TIMER) to automatically start and stop a recording at a later date.
The DVD recorder will switch to the right program number and begin recording at the correct
time.
With this DVD recorder, you can pre-program up to 6 recordings within a period of one
month.
ENGLISH
To make a programmed recording, your DVD recorder needs to know:
* the date you want to make the recording
* the program number of the TV channel
* the start and stop time of the recording
?
61
What is 'VPS/PDC'?
'VPS' (Video Programming System)/ 'PDC'(Programme Delivery Control) are
used to control the start and duration of TV channel recordings. If a TV
programme starts earlier or ends later than was scheduled, the DVD recorder
will still switch itself on and off and the correct times.
What do I need to know about 'VPS/PDC'?
Usually the start time is the same as the VPS or PDC time. But if your TV
guide gives a VPS or PDC time which is different from the programme's start
time, e.g. '20.15 (VPS/PDC 20.14)', you must enter the VPS/PDC time
'20.14' exact to the minute as the start time.
If you want to programme a time that is different from the VPS or PDC time,
you must switch off VPS or PDC.
Only one TV programme on a TV channel can be controlled using 'VPS/PDC'
at a time. If you want to record two or more TV programmes on a TV
channel using 'VPS/PDC', you will need to programme these as two separate
recordings.
* VPS or PDC on or off
* the recording mode ('HQ/SP+/LP/EP+').

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. Player script interface
3. Menu and 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; no other equipment is needed.
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.
5.1.2Contents
Unplug the power cord
Hold key <PLAY> pressed
while you plug the recorder
During the test, the following display
is shown: the counter counts down
from the number of nuclei to be run
before the test finishes. Example:

The End use/Dealer script executes all diagnostic nuclei that
do not need any user interaction and are meaningful on a
standalone DVD recorder. The nuclei called in the End user/

5.2Player Script Interface
5.2.1Description
The Player script will give the opportunity to perform a test that
will determine which of the DVD recorder's modules are faulty,
to read the error log and to perform an endurance loop test. To
successfully perform the tests, the DVD recorder must be
connected to a TV set.
To be able to check results of certain nuclei, the player script
expects some interaction of the user (i.e. to approve a test
picture or a test sound). Some nuclei (e.g. nuclei that test
functionality of the DVDR module) require that a DVD+RW disc
is inserted.
Only tests within the scope of the diagnostic software will be
executed hence only faults within this scope can be detected.

5.2.2Structure of the Player Script
The player script consists of a set of nuclei testing the hardware
modules in the DVD recorder: the Display PWB, the Digital
PWB, the Analogue In/Out PWB and the DVDR module.
Nuclei run by the player test need some user interaction; in the
next table this interaction is described. The player test is done
in two phases:
•Interactive tests: this part of the player test depends
strongly on user interaction and input to determine nucleus
results and to progress through the full test. Reading the
error log information can be useful to determine any errors
that occurred recently during normal operation of the DVD
player.
•The loop test will perform the same nuclei as the dealer
test, but it will loop through the list of nuclei indefinitely.

Hardware required:
•Service PC
•one free COM port on the Service PC
•special cable to connect DVD recorder to Service PC
The service PC must have a terminal emulation program (e.g.
OS2 WarpTerminal or Procomm) 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).
