1. SAFETY INFORMATION

This service manual is intended for qualified service technicians; it is not meant for the casual
do-it-yourselfer. Qualified technicians have the necessary test equipment and tools, and have been
trained to properly and safely repair complex products such as those covered by this manual.
Improperly performed repairs can adversely affect the safety and reliability of the product and may
void the warranty. If you are not qualified to perform the repair of this product properly and safely, you
should not risk trying to do so and refer the repair to a qualified service technician.

WARNING
Lead in solder used in this product is listed by the California Health and Welfare agency as a known reproductive toxicant which
may cause birth defects or other reproductive harm (California Health & Safety Code, Section 25249.5).
When servicing or handling circuit boards and other components which contain lead in solder, avoid unprotected skin contact with
the solder. Also, when soldering do not inhale any smoke or fumes produced.

NOTICE
(FOR CANADIAN MODEL ONLY)
Fuse symbols (fast operating fuse) and/or (slow operating fuse) on PCB indicate that replacement parts
must be of identical designation.

REMARQUE
(POUR MODÈLE CANADIEN SEULEMENT)
Les symboles de fusible (fusible de type rapide) et/ou (fusible de type lent) sur CCI indiquent que les
pièces de remplacement doivent avoir la même désignation.

(FOR USA MODEL ONLY)

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The following check should be performed for the

continued protection of the customer and service
technician.

LEAKAGE CURRENT CHECK

Measure leakage current to a known earth ground
(water pipe, conduit, etc.) by connecting a leakage
current tester such as Simpson Model 229-2 or
equivalent between the earth ground and all exposed

metal parts of the appliance (input/output terminals,
screwheads, metal overlays, control shaft, etc.). Plug
the AC line cord of the appliance directly into a 120V
AC 60 Hz outlet and turn the AC power switch on. Any
current measured must not exceed 0.5 mA.

Reading should
not be above

0.5 mA

Earth ground

Device
under
test

Also test with plug
reversed
(Using AC adapter
plug as required)

Leakage

current

tester

Test all exposed
metal surfaces

AC Leakage Test

ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS
OUTLINED ABOVE ARE INDICATIVE OF A PO­TENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD AND MUST BE COR­RECTED BEFORE RETURNING THE APPLIANCE
TO THE CUSTOMER.

2. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE

Many electrical and mechanical parts in the appli­ance have special safety related characteristics. These
are often not evident from visual inspection nor the
protection afforded by them necessarily can be ob­tained by using replacement components rated for
voltage, wattage , etc. Replacement parts which have
these special safety characteristics are identified in
this Service Manual.
Electrical components having such features are
identified by marking with a
on the parts list in this Service Manual.
The use of a substitute replacement component which
does not have the same safety characteristics as the
PIONEER recommended replacement one, shown in
the parts list in this Service Manual, may create shock,
fire, or other hazards.
Product Safety is continuously under review and
new instructions are issued from time to time. For
the latest information, always consult the current
PIONEER Service Manual. A subscription to, or ad­ditional copies of, PIONEER Service Manual may be
obtained at a nominal charge from PIONEER.

6. ADJUSTMENT

When the adjustment is made, the product should be connected to a STEREO TUNER AMPLIFIER (SX-R9) .
For your information, another method (without using the tuner amp.) is explained here.

6.1 TEST MODE

7 How to enter the Test Mode

* In case that the product is connected to an SX-R9

Select either of the following procedures:

1. By using the remote control, turn on the power to the
CT-R5 and receive the " A15F " signal from the
tuner amp through the bus.

2. With Power OFF, connect the Pin-15 of the micro­ computer to GND, and short the TEST MODE
jumper wires W159(TEST) and W160(GNDD) each
other on the MCON ASSY. Then turn on the power
by using the remote control. (Refer to Fig. 6-1.)

7 Test mode operations

- When the product enters the test mode, two center LEDs will
flash .

- All operation buttons, except for the [REC] and [REVERSE
MODE] Buttons, provide normal operations in the mode.

- When all LEDs remain extinguished, shift the TC/MD signal
selector to the MD side inside the CT-R5.

(1) LED check
Each time the [REVERSE MODE] button is pushed, the LED
operation changes as follows:

Normal display = All LEDs ON = All LEDs OFF = Leaf
+ SW check
(2) Leaf SW check
When the leaf switches are depressed, their corresponding
LEDs light up as follows:

+5.6V

Fig . 6 - 1

* In case that an SX-R9 is not available for adjustment

- On the CONNECT ASSY, short the pin -7 (GNDD:W128),
pin -13 (GNDR:W127) and pin-17 (GNDA:W126) of
CN101 one another. (Refer to A)

- On the MCON ASSY, short the TEST MODE jumper
wires W159(TEST) and W160(GNDD) each other.
(Refer to Fig. 6-1.)

- Apply the DC power voltage to the Pin-6(+5.6V), Pin-12
(-7V), and Pin-14(+7V) of respectively.
(Refer to Fig. 6-2.)

(3) Auto REC/PLAY operation mode
Push the [REC] button. The auto REC/PLAY operation mode
starts:

1. Sets the function of tuner amp to AUX.

2. One second later, starts 5-second FWD recording.

3. Performs REV recording for 5 seconds.

4. Shifts the function to TAPE, then performs FWD play for
5 seconds.

5. Stops operations.
* When the [REC] button is pushed once again, the above
operations are repeated.
** After the auto REC/PLAY operation is completed, when the
[REV] button is pushed, CT-R5 performs REV play for 5
seconds and stops operations.

7 How to cancel the test mode

To cancel the test mode, push the “POWER” button on the the
tuner amp to turn off the power to the CT-R5.

6.2 ADJUSTMENT

7 Adjustment Condition

(1) The ground at the time of adjustment shall be W153.

(Refer to Fig. 6–5).
(2) Clean the heads and demagnetize them using a head eraser.
(3) Set the measurement level to 0 dBV = 1 Vrms.
(4) Use the specified tape for adjustment. Use the labeled (A) side

of the test tape.

NCT–111 : For Tape Speed adjustment

NCT-132X : For Playback adjustment

STD–632 : Normal blank tape

* As the reference recording level is 250 nwb/m for NCT–

132X, the recording level will be higher by 4 dB for STD–
331B (160nwb/m). When adjusting, pay carefull attention
to the type of tape used.

(5) Provide yourself with the following measuring devides:

÷ AC millivoltmeter
÷ Low-frequency oscillator
÷ Attenuator
÷ Oscilloscope

(6) Adjust both right and left channels unless otherwise specified.
(7) Turn the DOLBY NR switch off unless otherwize specified.
(8) Warm up the unit for several minutes before adjustment. In

particular, be sure to warm up the unit in the REC/PLAY mode

for 3 to 5 minutes before starting recording/playback frequency

characteristics adjustment.
(9) Always follow the indicated adjustment order.

Otherwise, a complete adjustment may not be achieved.
