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.)
SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED LINE
WITH MARK 0 ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE
PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE
THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PAR TS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.

: 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.
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.

OPERATION CHECK METHOD
How to check the operation after repairing the main unit
or writing firmware
The following items are needed to perform the check:
•A device that is able of checking the environment during firm-
ware writing along with video and audio output terminals.
• The server application (Giga Pocket Server 5.0) needs to be in-
stalled in the Vaio for testing.
To perform the check, connect the Vaio with the preinstalled server
application to the STR-LV700R and check that the test video and
audio data are played and output correctly via the network.
1. Preparation
2. Preparation of the Vaio for Testing
Use the same Vaio used for writing firmware.
2-1. Insert the J-2501-266-A test program disk into the test Vaio.
2-2. Install the test color bar /1kHz signal from the test program
disk. Start the Giga Pocket Explorer . From the video capsule menu, select “Read” and then click “Browse…”. Select
“CD-ROM” t “75p1k1min” folder t “75p1k1min.mpg.”
Enter “COLOR-1KHZ” in the Video Capsule Name field and
then click the Run button.
Saved in “My Cabinet” of the Giga Pocket Explorer.
3. Setup the Vaio according to the procedure given on pages 30
to 33 of the Instruction manual .
4. Connect the outputs (video, audio, optical digital audio) from
the STR-LV700R to a television set and connect the device
with the optical digital input.
2. Testing method
1. Start up the STR-LV700R and press the N.MEDIA button on
the remote controller to open the main menu on the television
screen.
2. When the main menu is displayed on the television screen,
select “Video t Watch video clips” and press the ENTER
(SELECT) button.
3. When the servers list is displayed in the “Select Server Screen.”
From this list, select the name of the Vaio for testing and press
the ENTER (SELECT) button and select “Connect” in the
submenu. If the servers list does not appear even after a certain time interval has elapsed, press the OPTIONS button
on the remote controller to display the tool menu. In the tool
menu, select “Update to the latest information” and press the
ENTER (SELECT) button.
4. When the server is connected, the selection menu for all libraries is displayed. From this menu, select “My Cabinet” and
press the ENTER (SELECT) button.
5. When the video capsule selection menu is displayed, select
“COLOR-1KHZ.”
6. If color bars are displayed for video and 1kHz is output to
audio, the unit is functioning properly.
Also check the video output, audio output and optical digital
output items.
7. After the system has been completed, reset the STR-LV700R
to the factory preset values.
1. Items required for testing
• STR-LV700R to be tested.
• Test JIG Tool CD (J-2501-266-A)
• Remote commander (accessory)
• The network cable, cross-conversion cable and connection
cable supplied as accessories (a 100BASE-TX cross cable can
also be substitute for these items).
•AV cable
• Optical digital cable
•Television set with line input terminals (video and audio terminals)
• Device with optical digital input
