SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
1.Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes
and bridges.
2.Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are
"pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.
3.Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly
transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point
them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
4.Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and
recommend their replacement.
5.Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6.Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
•Keep the temperature of the 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.
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the leadfree mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size.)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40°C higher than
ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350°C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
• Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than
ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur such
as on IC pins, etc.
•Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied to the battery terminal using the regulated power supply (8.4 V), the power is shut off so
that the unit cannot operate.
These following method is available to prevent this.
Method:
Use the AC power adaptor (AC-L200/L200B).

DESTINATION DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, the written destination data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
Refer to Service Manual ADJ, and perform “DESTINATION DATA WRITE”.
USB SERIAL No.
The set is shipped with a unique ID (USB Serial No.) written in it.
This ID has not been written in a new board for service, and therefore it must be entered after the board replacement.
Refer to Service Manual ADJ, and perform “USB SERIAL No. INPUT”.
Connect the extension cable (J-6082-572-A) between the DVD mechanism deck and CN4401 on the VC-520 board.

1-5-1. Self-diagnosis Function
When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis
function starts working, and displays on the viewfinder or LCD
screen what to do.
Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction
manual.

1-5-2. Self-diagnosis Display
When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
viewfinder or LCD screen shows a 4-digit display consisting of an
alphabet and numbers, which blinks at 3.2 Hz. This 5-character
display indicates the “repaired by:”, “block” in which the problem
occurred, and “detailed code” of the problem.

Correction
Use the InfoLITHIUM battery.
Format the “Memory Stick Duo”.
Insert a new “Memory Stick Duo”.
Clean the disc with the supplied cleaning cloth.
Use a compatible disc with the camcorder.
Make flash memory data correct value. (Note 1)
Inspect or replacement of the mechanism deck, IC (IC4401 on
the VC-520 board) and drive block.
Inspect the lens block focus reset sensor (pin 7 of CN5101 on
the VC-520 board) when focusing is performed when the focus
buttons of the touch panel are pressed in the focus manual mode,
and the focus motor drive circuit (IC5401 (Non MEGA model)
or IC5301 (MEGA model) on the VC-520 board) when the
focusing is not performed.
Inspect the lens block zoom reset sensor (pin qa of CN5101 on
the VC-520 board) when zooming is performed when the zoom
lever is operated, and the zoom motor drive circuit (IC5401 (Non
MEGA model) or IC5301 (MEGA model) on the VC-520 board)
when zooming is not performed.
Check whether the flexible board of the lens is broken, and
check whether it is inserted imperfectly. If there is no problem in
the flexible board, inspect the focus/zoom motor drive circuit
(IC5401 (Non MEGA model) or IC5301 (MEGA model) on the
VC-520 board).
Inspect PITCH angular velocity sensors (SE7002 on the CD672/CD-687 board) peripheral circuits. (MEGA model only)
Inspect YAW angular velocity sensors (SE7001 on the CD-672/
CD-687 board) peripheral circuits. (MEGA model only)
Inspect the flash memory (IC2101 on the VC-520 board). (Note 1)
Inspect the internal flash memory (MDL4060S3C) (DVD410E/
DVD810/DVD810E only)
Note 1: Refer to “1-3. DESTINATION DATA WRITE”, ADJ (9-852-249-51).

block
D lid block
Screws
When the eject block is installed on the cabinet L assy
for service, a discrepancy could be made between the
cabinet D block and the D lid block, and as a result,
the D lid may not to be closed.
In case of such discrepancy, loosen the screws on the
hinge to eliminate the discrepancy of the D lid block,
and then retighten the screws.
