SERVICE NOTE
D-F21/F22ST
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.
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 30 cm
apart from the object lens when you check the emission of laser
diode.
Before Replacing the Optical Pick-Up Block
Please be sure to check throughly the parameters as par the “Optical Pick-Up Block Checking Procedures” (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 : IC601 eg pin
When checking FOK, remove the lead wire to disc motor.
• RF signal P-to-P value : 0.45 ± 0.1 Vp-p
• The repairing grating holder is impossible.
Laser Diode Checking Methods
During normal operation of the equipment, emission of the laser
diode is prohibited unless the upper lid is closed while turning ON
the S801. (push switch type)
The following two checking methods for the laser diode are
operable.
• Method:
Emission of the laser diode is visually checked.
1. Open the upper lid.
2. With a disc not set, turn on the S801 with a screwdriver having a
thin tip as shown in Fig.1.
or TAP802 is shorted as shown in Fig.2.
Note: Do not push the detection lever strongly, or it may be bent
or damaged.
3. Press the N X button.
4. Observing the objective lens, check that the laser diode emits
light.
When the laser diode does not emit light, automatic power
control circuit or optical pick-up is faulty.
In this operation, the objective lens will move up and down 5
times along with inward motion for the focus search.

done by the trimmer capacitors.
• For FM adjustment, fix the FM RF coil (L1) as shown next page
and then perform tracking adjustment at L2 and CT1.
Lastly check the voltage value.
• For AM adjustment, fix the ferrite-rod antenna (L3) as shown
next page and then perform tracking adjustment at L4 and CT3.

FOCUS BIAS CHECK
1. Connect the oscilloscope between TP629 (RF) and GND on
main board.
2. Insert the disc (YEDS-18). (Part No. : 3-702-101-01)
3. Press the N X button.
4. Confirm that the oscilloscope waveform is as shown in the
figure below. (eye pattern)
A good eye pattern means that the diamond shape ( ) in the
center of the waveform can be clearly distinguished.
