NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
breakdown because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair , pay attention to electrostatic breakdown and also use
the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the repair
parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pickup block.
Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, observe from
more than 30cm away from the objective lens.
Before Replacing the Optical pick-up Block
Please be sure to check thoroughly the parameters as per the “Optical
pick-up Block Checking Procedure” (Part No. : 9-960-027-11) issued
separately before replacing the optical Pick-up block.
Note and specifications required to check are given below.
• FOK output : IC501 !™ pin
When checking FOK, remove the lead wire to disc motor.
• S curve P-to-P value : 0.9 – 1.5Vp-p IC501 #¡ pin. (Connect pin
!™ of IC501 (TP880) and 3 of IC501 (GND) with a jumper
wire).
When checking S curve P-to-P value, remove the lead wire to
disc motor.
• Adjusted part for focus gain adjustment : R V503
• RF signal P-to-P value : 0.85 – 1.15Vp-p
• Traverse signal P-to-P value : 1.0 – 2.6Vp-p
• The repairing grating holder is impossible.
• Adjusted part for tracking gain adjustment : RV502

Precautions for Checking Emission of Laser Diode
Laser light of the equipment is focused by the object lens in the
optical pick-up so that the light focuses on the reflection surface of
the disc.
Therefore, be sure to keep your eyes more then 30cm apart from
the object lens when you check the emission of laser diode.
Laser Diode Checking Methods
During normal operation of the equipment, emission of the laser
diode is prohibited unless the upper panel is closed while turning
ON the S801 (push switch type).
The following two checking methods for the laser diode are operable.
Method-1 (In the service mode or normal operation) :
Emission of the laser diode is visually checked.
1. Open the upper lid.
2. Push the S801 as shown in Fig. 1 .
3. Check the object lens for confirming normal emission of the
laser diode. If not emitting, there is a trouble in the automatic
power control circuit or the optical pick-up. During normal
operation, the laser diode is turned ON about 2.5 seconds for
focus searching.

5. Calculate the current value by the reading of the digital voltmeter
Reading of the tester (V) ÷ 4.7 ( Ω ) = current value (A)
(Example) Reading of the digital voltmeter of 0.2256 V :
0.2256 V ÷ 4.7 Ω = 0.048 (A) = 48 mA
6. Check that the current value is within the following range.

• Step 1 (Service mode setting method)
1. Turn OFF the HOLD switch the external power supply disconnected (power is not applied to the set).
2. Solder across the T802 (TEST) terminals (pin %¢, IC801 (TEST)
is grounded).
3. Connect an external power supply.
Thus, the set is switched to the service mode.
• Step 2 (Operation in the service mode )
1. Once the service mode is effected, the LCD displays 5 indications each of which is repeatedly displayed.
However, the following operations can be activated even if LCD
indication is effected.
2. By pressing the + or = key, the optical pick-up movable
inwardly or outwardly. However, if this is activated, tracking
servo and sled servo are turned OFF , so it can be turned ON by
pressing the PLAY MODE key, if required.
3. By pressing the REPEAT/ENTER key, the tracking gain-up
mode becomes active.
4. By pressing the ^ key, focus is turned ON from focus searching while entering CLV-S (pull-in mode).
Without disc, focus searching is repeated continuously.
5. By pressing the PLAY MODE key, tracking servo, sled servo
and CLV-A (servo in PLAY) are turned ON.
6. When 4. and 5. are performed, playing begins. No muting is
ON in the service mode.
7. By pressing the p key, all servos (focus tracking and sled) are
turned OFF. However, the disc motor revolves for a while by
inertia.

After the completion of adjustment, be sure to reset the service
mode.
For more information, see “Service Mode (service program)”
on page 8.
2. Perform adjustments in the order given.
3. Use the disc (YEDS-18. Part No. 3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
4. Power supply voltage requirement : DC 4.5 V
HOLD switch: OFF

Before Beginning Adjustment
Set the equipment to service mode (See page 8) and check the
following.
If there in an error, repair the equipment.
• Checking of the sled motor
1. Open the upper panel.
2. Press the + and = keys and check that the optical pick-up
can move smoothly without sluggishness or abnormal noise from
innermost periphery to outermost periphery then to innermost
periphery.
+ : The optical pick-up moves outwardly
= : The optical pick-up moves inwardly
• Checking of focus searching
1. Open the upper panel.
2. Press the ^ key. (Focus searching operation is activated continuously).
3. Check the object lens of the optical pick-up for smooth up/down
motion without sluggishness or abnormal noise.
4. Press the p key.
Check that focus searching operation is deactivated. If not, again
press the p key slightly longer.
Focus Bias Check
Condition :
• Hold the set in horizontal state.
Procedure :
[MAIN BOARD] (Side B)
1. Set the equipment to service mode stop state (See page 8).
2. Connect the oscilloscope between IC501 @£ pin (RF0) and #º
pin (VC) on the MAIN board.
3. Move the optical pick-up by Pressing the + and = keys.
4. Put the disc (YEDS-18).
5. Press the ^ key.
From focus searching, focus is turned ON while entering
(
CLV drawing-in mode. Tracking and sled are turned OFF.
6. Press the PLA Y MODE key . (Both tracking and sled are turned
ON).
7. Check the oscilloscope waveform is as shown below.
A good eye pattern means that the diamond shape (◊) in the
center of the waveform can be clearly distinguished.
)
• RF Signal Reference Waveform (eye pattern)
To watch the eye pattern, set the oscilloscope to AC range and
increase the vertical sensitivity of the oscilloscope for easy watching.
8. Stop removing of the motor by pressing the p key.
9. After the completion of adjustment, reset service mode.

Focus/Tracking Gain Adjustment
V
V
V
A servo analyzer is necessary in order to perform this adjustment
exactly.
However, this gain has a margin, so even if it is slightly off,
there is no problem. Therefore, do not perform this adjustment.
Focus/tracking gain determines the pick-up follow-up relative to
mechanical noise and mechanical shock when the 2-axis device
operate. However, as these reciprocate, the adjustment is at the point
where both are satisfied.
• When gain is raised, the noise when 2-axis device operates increases.
• When gain is lowered, it is more susceptible to mechanical shock
and skipping occurs more easily.
This adjustment has to be performed upon replacing any of the following parts :
• Optical pick-up
• RV503 (Focus gain)
• RV502 (Tracking gain)
Normally, be sure not to move RV503 (focus gain) and RV502
(tracking gain).
– Focus Gain Adjustment –
Procedure :
This adjustment is not performed. If focus gain RV503 is turned,
set to mechanical center.
– Tracking Gain Adjustment –
(perform at normal operation)
1. Place the optical pick-up level, horizontally. (If the optical pickup is not level, the 2-axis device will be weighted and adjustment
cannot be done.)
2. Connect the oscilloscope between IC501 0 pin (TEO) and #º
pin (VC) on the MAIN board.
3. Set the disc (YEDS-18) and Press the ^ (+) key.
4. Turn R V502 slightly clockwise (tracking gain drops) and obtain
a waveform with a fundamental wave (waveform has large
waves) as in Fig. 1 .
5. Turn R V502 slowly counterclockwise (tracking gain rises) until
the fundamental wave disappears (no large waves) as in Fig. 2.
6. Set RV502 to the position about 30°counterclockwise from the
position obtained in step 5. If RV502 contact point is more than
90° counterclockwise from mechanical center, tracking gain is
too high. In this case, readjust from step 4.
7. Press ^ (+) or = keys and observe the 100 track jump
waveform. Check that no traverse waveform appears for both
^ (+) or = directions. (See Fig. 3 and 4.) It is acceptable
if the traverse waveform appears only now and then, but if it
appears constantly raise tracking gain slightly and check step 7
again.
8. Check that there is no abnormal amount of operation noise (white
noise) from the 2-axis device. If there is, tracking gain is too
high, readjust starting with step 4.
The waveforms are those measured with the oscilloscope set as
shown below .
• VOLT/DIV : 50mV
• TIME/DIV : 5mS
• Waveform when tracking gain lowered.
