SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!

COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED LINE WITH MARK 0 ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.

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.

SERVICE NOTE

1. POWER SUPPLY DURING REPAIRS

In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied (8.4V) to the battery terminal using the service power code (J-6082-223-A), the po wer is shut off so that the unit cannot operate. These following two methods are available to prevent this. Take note of which to use during repairs.

Method 1.

Use the DC IN terminal. (Use the AC power adaptor.)

Method 2.

Connect the adjustment remote commander RM-95 (J-6082-053-B) to the LANC jack, and set the HOLD switch to the “ADJ” side.

2. TO TAKE OUT A CASSETTE WHEN NOT EJECT (FORCE EJECT)

1 Refer to 2-3. to remove the front panel section. 2 Refer to 2-4. to remove the cabinet (Upper) assembly. 3 Refer to 2-4. to remove the cabinet (R) assembly. 4 Refer to 2-9. to remove the memory stick connector assembly. (DCR-TRV325E/TRV330E/TRV430E/TRV530E) 5 Refer to 2-10. to remove the battery panel section. 6 Refer to 2-11. and 2-12. to remove the cabinet (L) section. (Include the CS frame assembly and control switch block (SS-1380).) 7 Disconnect CN4401 (2P) of VC-254 board. 8 Add +5V from the DC POWER SUPPLY and unload with a pressing the cassette compertment.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION

Control dial

1. Self-diagnosis Function

When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis function starts working, and displays on the viewfinder or Display window what to do. This function consists of two display; selfdiagnosis display and service mode display . Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction manual.

2. Self-diagnosis Display

When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the viewfinder or Display window 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.

3. Service Mode Display

The service mode display shows up to six self-diagnosis codes shown in the past.

3-1. Display Method

While pressing the “STOP” key, set the switch from OFF to “VTR or PLAYER”, and continue pressing the “STOP” key for 5 seconds continuously. The service mode will be displayed, and the counter will show the backup No. and the 5-character self-diagnosis codes.

Turning OFF the power supply will end the service mode display.

Note: The “self-diagnosis display” data will be backed up by the coin-type lithium battery (CF-079/080 board BT101). When

the CF-079/080 board is disconnected, the “self-diagnosis display” data will be lost by initialization.

Symptom/State

Difficult to adjust focus (Cannot initialize focus.)

Zoom operations fault (Cannot initialize zoom lens.)

Steady shot correction function does not work well. (With pitch angular velocity sensor output stopped.)

Steady shot correction function does not work well. (With yaw angular velocity sensor output stopped.)

Correction

Inspect the lens block focus reset sensor (Pin qd of CN1551 of VC-254 board) when focusing is performed when the control dial is rotated in the focus manual mode and the focus motor drive circuit (IC1553 of VC-254 board) when the focusing is not performed.

Inspect the lens block zoom reset sensor (Pin qs of CN1551 of VC-254 board) when zooming is performed when the zoom lens is operated and the zoom motor drive circuit (IC1553 of VC-254 board) when zooming is not performed.

Inspect pitch angular velocity sensor (SE301 of SE-028/029 board) peripheral circuits.

Inspect yaw angular velocity sensor (SE302 of SE-028/029 board) peripheral circuits.
