CAUTION

Lead Free Soldered Boards

The circuit boards listed below [Table 1] used in these models may have been processed using Lead Free Solder. The boards are identified by the LF logo located close to the board designation e.g. F1, H1 etc [ see examples ]. The servicing of these boards requires special precautions to be taken as outlined below.

62-500-046-7mm6.1gK00.1

Due to the higher melting point of Lead Free Solder the soldering iron tip temperature needs to be set to 370 degrees centigrade. This requires soldering equipment capable of accurate temperature control coupled with a good heat recovery characteristics.

For more information on the use of Lead Free Solder, please refer to http://www.sony-training.com

MRX1 SELF DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE

The identification of errors within the MRX1 chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the event of one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a continuous flashing LED) and then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted).
