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.
Notes on chip component replacement
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be
damaged by heat.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
This MiniDisc player is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER

SERVICING NOTE
• When repairing this device with the power on, if you remove
the MAIN board or open the upper panel assy , this device stops
working.
In this case, you can work without the device stopping by fastening the hook of the open/close detect switch (S801) with tape.

NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic break-down because of the potential difference generated
by the charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human
body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down 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
Never look into the laser diode emission from right avove when
checking it for adustment. It is feared that you will lose your sight.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
(LCX-2R)
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
break-down easily. When handling it, perform soldering bridge to
the laser-tap on the flexible board. Also perform measures against
electrostatic break-down sufficiently before the operation. The
flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with care.
• This set is designed to perform automatic adjustment for each
adjustment and write its value to EEPROM. Therefore, when
EEPROM (IC802) has been replaced in service, be sure to perform automatic adjustment and write resultant values to the new
EEPROM.
(Refer to page 20.)
• Replacement of CXD2660R (IC502) and CXR701081 (IC801)
used in this set requires a special tool. Therefore, they cannot be
replaced.

TEST MODE
4-1. OUTLINE
• This set provides the Overall adjustment mode (Assy mode) that
allows CD and MO disc to be automatically adjusted when in
the test mode. In this overall adjustment mode, the protect switch
is detected to judge the disc, CD or MO, and each adjustment is
automatically executed in order. If a fault is found, the system
displays its location. Also, the manual mode allows each individual adjustment to be automatically adjusted.
• The keys in the description refer to the keys on both set and
remote commander unless otherwise specified. Though LCD
display shows the LCD of the remote commander, same contents are also displayed on the LCD of the set.
4-2. TEST MODE
4-2-1. Setting Method of Test Mode
There are two different methods to set the test mode:
1 Short BP801 (TEST) on the MAIN board with a solder bridge
(connect pin y; of IC801 to the ground). Then, turn on the
power.
– MAIN BOARD (SIDE B) –
2 In the normal mode, turn on the HOLD switch on the set. While
pressing the
x key on the set, press the following remote
control keys in the following order:
> t > t . t . t > t . t
> t . t X t X
4-2-2. Operation in Setting the Test Mode
• When the test mode becomes active, first the display check mode
is selected. (Press
x key once, when the display check mode
is not active.)
• Other mode can be selected from the display check mode.
• When the test mode is set, the LCD repeats the following dis-
X key is pressed and hold down, the display at that
time is held so that display can be checked.
4-2-3. Releasing the Test Mode
For test mode set with the method 1:
Turn off the power and open the solder bridge on BP801 (TEST)
on the MAIN board.
Note:Remove the solders completely. Remaining could be shorted with
the chassis, etc.
