ATTENTION AU COMPOSANT AYANT RAPPORT
À LA SÉCURITÉ!
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 ob vious 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.
DSC-S60/S80/S90/ST80
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
Unleaded solder
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.

1-1. NOTE FOR REPAIR
When installing a connector, don’t press down at wire of connector.
It is possible that a wire is snapped.
1. SERVICE NOTE
Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of
bent at the terminal.
Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly.
Cut and remove the part of gilt
which comes off at the point.
(Be careful or some
pieces of gilt may be left inside)
When remove a connector, don’t pull at wire of connector.
It is possible that a wire is snapped.
1-2. DISCHARGING OF THE ST-122
FLEXIBLE BOARD’S CHARGING
CAPACITOR (C003)
The charging capacitor (C003) of ST-122 flexible board is charged
up to the maximum 300 V potential.
There is a danger of electric shock by this high voltage when the
capacitor is handled by hand. The electric shock is caused by the
charged voltage which is kept without discharging when the main
power of the unit is simply turned off. Therefore, the remaining
voltage must be discharged as described below.
Preparing the Short Jig
To preparing the short jig, a small clip is attached to each end of a
resistor of 1 kΩ /1 W (1-215-869-11).
Wrap insulating tape fully around the leads of the resistor to prevent
electrical shock.
1 kΩ/1 W
Wrap insulating tape.
Discharging the Capacitor
Short-circuit between the positive and the negative terminals of
charged capacitor with the short jig about 10 seconds.

1-5. METHOD FOR COPYING OR ERASING THE DATA IN INTERNAL MEMORY
p
The data can be copied/erased by the operations on the Setup screen. (When erasing the data, execute formatting the internal memory.)
Note: 1 When replacing the SY-126 board, erase the data in internal memory of the board before replacement.
Note: 2 When replacing the SY-126 board or the IC301 on the SY-126 board, execute formatting and initialize the internal memory after
replacement.
Method for Copying the Data in Internal Memory
Copy
Copies all images in the internal memory to a “Memory Stick”.
OK
Cancel
1 Insert a “Memo ry Sti ck ” having 32 MB or la rger capac ity.
2 Select [OK] with v on the control button, then pre ss z.
The message “All data in internal memory will be copied Ready?” appears.
3 Select [OK] with v, then press z.
Copying starts.
Copying
102_COPY
See the following procedure.
Cancels the copying.
•Use batteries with enough capacity or the AC Adaptor (not supplied). If you attempt to copy image files
using batteries with little remaining charge, the batteries may run out, causing copying to fail or possibly
corrupting the data.
•You cannot copy individual images.
•The original images in the internal memory are retained even after copying. To delete the contents of the
internal memory, remove the “Memory Stick” after copying, then execute the [Format] command in
Internal Memory Tool.
•You cannot select a folder copied on a “Memory Stick”.
•The setting of (Print order) marks is not copied even when you copy data.
Method for Formatting the Internal Memory
Format
Formats the internal memory.
• Note that formatting irrevocably erases all data in the internal memory, including even protected images.
OK
Cancel
1 Select [OK] with v on the control button, then press z.
The message “All data in internal memory will be erased Ready?” appears.
2 Select [OK] with v, then press z.

1-6. PROCESS AFTER FIXING FLASH ERROR
SH
CA
When “FLASH error” (Self-diagnosis Code E : 91 : ** ) occurs, to prevent any abnormal situation caused by high voltage, setting of the
flash is changed automatically to disabling charge and flash setting.
After fixing, this setting needs to be deactivated. Flash error code can be initialized by the operations on the Setup screen.
Method for Initializing the Flash Error Code
Initialize
Initializes the setting to the default setting.
OK
Cancel
1 Select [OK] with v on the control button, then press z.
The message “Initialize all settings Ready?” appears.
2 Select [OK] with v, then press z.
The settings are reset to the default setting.
• Make sure that the power is not disconnected during resetting.
See the following procedure.
Cancels the resetting.
