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, though functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
5. Check the line cord for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
6. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
7. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs,
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.
Check leakage as described below.

WARNING!!
WHEN SERVICING, DO NO T APPR O A CH THE LASER
EXIT WITH THE EYE TOO CLOSELY. IN CASE IT IS
NECESSARY TO CONFIRM LASER BEAM EMISSION,
BE SURE TO OBSERVE FROM A DISTANCE OF
MORE THAN 25 cm FROM THE SURFACE OF THE
OBJECTIVE LENS ON THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK.
LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage fr om any exposed metal part to earth ground
and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having
a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commer cial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT -540A. Follow the manuf acturers' instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a
VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indica-
tion is 0.75V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-
voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63T rd are ex-
amples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery
operated digital multimeters that have a 2V A C range are suit-
able. (See Fig. A)
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.
CAUTION:
The use of optical instrument with this product will increase eye
hazard.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD
•When playing DTS-encoded CDs,
excessive noise will be heard from the
analog stereo jacks. To avoid possible
damage to the audio system, the consumer

external 5.1-channel decoder system must
be connected to the digital jack of the
player.
•Set the sound to “STEREO” using the
AUDIO button when you play DTS sound
tracks on a CD (page 71).
•Do not play DTS sound tracks without first
connecting the player to an audio
component having a built-in DTS decoder.
The player outputs the DTS signal via the
DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL or
OPTICAL) j ack even if “DTS” in “AUDIO
SETUP” is set to “OFF” in the Setup
Display (page 95), and may affect your ears
or damage your speakers.
Notes on playing DVD VIDEOs with a DTS
sound track
•DTS audio signals are output only through
the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL or
OPTICAL) j ack.
•When you play a DVD VIDEO with DTS
sound tracks, set “DTS” to “ON” in
“AUDIO SETUP” (page 95).
•If you connect the player to audio
equipment without a DTS decoder, do not
set “DTS” to “ON” in “AUDIO SETUP”

noise, affecting your ears or damaging your
speakers.

Glossary
Chapter (page 10, 14, 63)
Sections of a picture or a music feature that

several chapters. Depending on the dis c, no
chapters may be re corded.
Dolby Digital (page 28, 94)
Digital audio compression technology
developed by Dolb y Laboratories. This
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround
sound. The rear channel is stereo and there is
a discrete subwoofer channel in this format.
Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1 discrete
channels of high quality digital audio found in
Dolby Digital cinema audio systems. Good
channel separation is realized because all of
the channel data are recorded discretely and
little deterioration is realized because all
channel data processing is digital.
Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) (page 27, 94)
Audio signal processing technology that
Dolby Laboratories developed for surround
sound. When the input signal cont ains a
surround component, the Pro Logi c process
outputs the front, center and rear signals. The
rear channel is monaural.
DTS (page 28, 71, 95)
Digital audio compression technology that
Digital Theater Systems, Inc. developed. This
technology conforms to 5.1-channel surround
sound. The rear channel is stereo and there is
a discrete subwoofer channel in this format.
DTS provides the same 5.1 discrete channels
of high quality digital audio.
Good channel separation is realized because
all of the channel data is recorded discretely
and little deterioration is realized because all
channel data processing is digital.
DVD VIDEO (page 6)
A disc that contains up to 8 hours of moving
pictures even though its diameter is the same
as a CD.
The data capacity of a single-layer and singlesided DVD is 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), which is 7
times that of a CD. The data capacity of a
double-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5
GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD is
9.4 GB, and double-layer and double-sided
DVD is 17 GB.
The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one
of the worldwide standards of digital
compression technology. The picture data is
compressed to about 1/40 (average) of its
original size. The DVD al so uses a variabl e
rate coding technology that changes the data
to be allocated according to the status of the
picture. Audio information is recorded in a
multi-channel format, such as Dolby Digital,
allowing you to enjoy a more real audio
presence.
Furthermore, various adva nced funct ions
such as the multi-angle, multilingual, and
Parental Control functions are provided with
the DVD.
DVD-RW (page 6, 41)
A DVD-RW is a recordable and rewritable
disc with the same size as the DVD VIDEO.
The DVD-RW can be recorded in two
different modes: VR mode and Video mode.
VR (Video Recording) mode enables various
programming and ed iting functions, some of
which are limited in the case of Video mode.
Video mode complies with DVD VIDEO
format and can be played on other DVD
players while a DVD-RW recorded in VR
mode can only be played on DVD-RW
compliant players. The “DVD-RW”
appearing in this manual, and the on-screen
displays refer to DVD-RWs in VR mode.
Film based software, Video based
software (page 91)
DVDs can be classified as Film based or
Video based software. Film based DVDs
contain the same images (24 frames per
second) that are shown at movie theaters.
Video based DVDs, such as television
dramas or sit-coms, displays images at 30
frames (or 60 fields) per second.
c
continued
Interlace format (page 91)
Interlace format shows every other line of an
image as a single “field” and is the standard
method for displaying images on television.
The even number field sho ws the even
numbered lines of an image, and the odd
numbered field shows the odd numbered lines
of an image.
Index (CD)/Video Index (VIDEO CD) (page
10, 14, 63)
A number that divides a track into sections to
easily locate the point you want on a CD or
VIDEO CD. Depending on the disc, no index
may be recorded.
Progressive format (page 91)
Compared to the Interlace format that
alternately shows every other line of an image
(field) to create one frame, the Progressive
format shows the entire image at once as a
single frame. This means that while the
Interlace format can show 30 frames (60
fields) in one second, the Progressive format
can show 60 frames in one second. The
overall picture quality increases and still
images, text, and horizontal lines appear
sharper. This player is compatible with the
480 progressive format.

THIS NOTE IS COMMON FOR PRINTED WIRING
BOARDS AND SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS.
For printed wiring boards:
• X : indicates a lead wire mounted on the component
side.
• x : indicates a lead wire mounted on the printed side.
•a: Through hole.
• b : Pattern from the side which enables seeing.
(The other layers’ patterns are not indicated.)
Caution:
Pattern face side:Parts on the pattern face side seen from
(Side A)the pattern face are indicated.
Parts face side:Parts on the parts face side seen from
(Side B)the parts face are indicated.
For schematic diagram:
• Caution when replacing chip parts.
New parts must be attached after removal of chip.
Be careful not to heat the minus side of tantalum capacitor,
because it is damaged by the heat.
• All resistors are in ohms, 1/
less otherwise specified.
kΩ : 1000Ω, MΩ : 1000kΩ.
• All capacitors are in µF unless otherwise noted. pF : µµF
50V or less are not indicated except for electrolytics and
tantalums.
• All variable and adjustable resistors hav e characteristic curve
B, unless otherwise noted.
• 2 : nonflammable resistor.
• 5 : fusible resistor.
• C : panel designation.
•f: internal component.
• C : adjustment for repair.
• U : B+ Line.
• V : B– Line.
• Circled numbers refer to wa veforms.
•Voltages are dc between measurement point.
• Readings are taken with a color-bar signal on DVD reference disc and when playing CD reference disc.
• Readings are taken with a digital multimeter (DC 10MΩ).
•Voltage variations may be noted due to normal production
tolerances.
Note:
The components identified by mark 0 or dotted
line with mark 0 are critical for safety.
Replace only with part
number specified.

Caution: Address and data display in case of an error is
different from the display of other diagnosis (de-

Before starting the test, all addresses of RAM (IC303) are
cleared to 0x0000.
First, 0xA55A is written to the address 0x00000, and the
address data are read and checked from addresses 0x00001
to 0x80000 while shifting 1 bit each. Next, the data at that
address is cleared, and it is written to the address 0x00001,
and read and checked in the same manner. This check is
repeated up to the address 0x80000 while shifting the address data by 1 bit each.
If data other than 0 is read at the addresses except written
address, an error is given because all addresses were already cleared to 0. In this check, the error display pattern is
different from that of other diagnosis; read data, written
address, and read address are displayed in this order. Ho wever, the message uses same template, and accordingly exchange Address and Data when reading. The follo wing display, for example,

Data write → read, and accord check
Error 11: ARP RAM read data discord
The program code data stored in ROM are copied to all
areas of RAM (IC303) connected to the ARP (IC301)
through the bus, then they are read and checked if they accord. If the detail check was selected initially, the data are
written to all areas and read, then the same test is conducted
once again with the data where all bits are inverted between
1 and 0. If discord is detected, faulty address, written data,
and read data are displayed following the error code 11,
and the test is suspended.

The program code data stored in ROM (IC106 or 107) are
copied to all areas of RAM (IC404, IC405) connected to
the AVD (IC403) through the bus, then they are read and
checked if they accord. Further, the same test is conducted
once again with the data where all bits are inverted between
1 and 0. If discord is detected, faulty address, written data,
and read data are displayed following the error code 14,
and the test is suspended.
During the test, OSD display becomes blank as the OSD
area is also checked.

6-10. IF CON SELF DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
1. FR-189 BOARD (IF CON) TEST MODE
The front board test mode is the IF CON self diagnostic mode.
The IF CON can diagnose the functions of the front panel boards
that the IF CON controls. Normally, the IF CON makes a serial
communication with the SYSTEM CONTROL and operates following the commands from the SYSTEM CONTROL, but in the
Test mode, the IF CON operates independently from the SYSTEM CONTROL.
In the Test mode, the following functions can be checked.
In the Test mode, the set operates same as usual, except voltage
monitoring, communication monitoring, display of fluorescent
display tube, and LED control.
1. The routine that monitors +3.3 V (P-CONT) of MB-107 board
is not provided.
2. The monitoring timer for serial communication with the SYSTEM CONTROL is not provided. The set is not placed in the
Standby mode, even if the communication with SYSTEM
CONTROL is normal.
3. Display of fluorescent display tube (normally, display is made
following the commands from SYSTEM CONTROL)
4. LED control (normally, control is made following the commands from SYSTEM CONTROL)
2. OPERATION OF SELF CHECK MODE
The Self Check mode is the function to conduct the basic test to
the FL display and DVD panel section.
2-1. Self Check Mode Transition Processing
At the A C Po wer ON after IF CON (IC106) w as reset, the input to
10pin (SELF CHECK) is judged and if “Low” is entered, the main
unit transits to the Self Check mode. In this port input judgment,
the result of 3-time attempts must be same (assuming that the MB107 board is not connected). While pressing the x key on the main
unit with the IF CON in STANDBY mode, enter
O
[ RETURN] → [DISPLAY] (or [SET UP]) on the remote com-
mander, and the unit transits to the Self Check Mode. The Self
Check mode terminates when the IF CON transits to the ST ANDBY
mode.
