The laser component in this product is
capable of emitting radiation exceeding
the limit for Class 1.
This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1
LASER product. The CLASS 1 LASER
PRODUCT MARKING is located on the
rear exterior.
The following caution label is located
inside the unit.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Notes on chip component replacement
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of soldering iron around 270˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for A C leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth Ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers). Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakag e tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A ba ttery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM
or battery-operated A C v oltmeter. The “limit” indication is 0.75
V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale.
The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital
multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)

JIG FOR CHECKING BD BOARD WAVEFORM
The special jig (J-2501-124-A) is useful for checking the waveform of the BD board. The names of terminals and the checking items to be
performed are shown as follows.
I+3V : For measuring IOP (Check the deterioration of the optical pick-up laser)
IOP : For measuring IOP (Check the deterioration of the optical pick-up laser)
TEO : TRK error signal (Traverse adjustment)
VC : Reference level for checking the signal
RF: RF signal (Check jitter)

FORCED RESET
The system microprocessor can be reset in the following way.
Use these methods when the unit cannot be operated normally due to the overrunning of the microprocessor, etc.

RETRY CAUSE DISPLAY MODE
• In this test mode, the causes for retry of the unit during recording can be displayed on the fluorescent display tube.
This is useful for locating the faulty part of the unit.
• The data amount stored in D RAM, number of retries, and retry cause are displayed. Each is displayed in hexadecimal number.
• The display of the D RAM data amount enables data reading, accumulation, ejection, and writing to be performed smoothly. If writing is
not smooth, data may decrease considerably.
Method:
1. Load a recordable disc whose contents can be erased into the unit.
2. Press the EDIT/NO button several times to display “All Erase?” on the fluorescent display tube.
3. Press the YES button.
4. When “All Erase??” is displayed on the fluorescent display tube, the numbers on the music calendar will start blinking.
5. Press the YES button to display “Complete”, and press the p button immediately and continue pressing for about 10 seconds.
6. When the “TOC” displayed on the fluorescent display tube goes off, release the p button.
7. Press the r REC button to start recording.
8. Press the DISPLAY button to display the test mode (Fig. 1), and check the display.
9. The Rt value increases with each retry. If an error occurs after a retry , “Retry Error” will be displayed, and the number of retries counted
will be set back to 0.
10. To exit the test mode, press the POWER button. Turn OFF the power, and after “TOC” disappears, disconnect the power plug from the
outlet.

*1 Some displays are not used depending on the microprocessor version.
Reading the Display:
Convert the hexadecimal display into binary display. If more than two causes, they will be added.
Example
When 42 is displayed:
Higher bit : 4 = 0100 n b6
Lower bit : 2 = 0010 n b1
In this case, the retry cause is combined of “CLV unlock” and “ader5”.
When spindle rotation is detected as slow
When more than 3.5 shocks are detected
When ADER was counted more than
five times continuously
When ADIP address is not continuous
(Not used)
When not in focus
When ABCD signal level exceeds the specified range
When CLV is unlocked
When access operation is not performed normally
When A2 is displayed:
Higher bit : A = 1010 n b7+b5
Lower bit : 2 = 0010 n b1
The retry cause in this case is combined of “access fault”, “IVR rec error”, and “ader5”.
