5. Handling Precautions for Traverse Deck (MD Unit)

The laser diode in the MD unit (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference caused by static electricity of clothes or human body.So, be careful of

electrostatic breakdown during repair of the MD unit (optical pickup).

5.1. Handling of MD Unit (optical pickup)

1. Do not subject the MD unit (optical pickup) to static electricity as it is extremely sensitive to electrical shock.

2. The short land between the No. 25 (LD-GND) and No. 24 (LD) pins on the flexible board is shorted with a solder build-up to prevent damage to the laser diode. (As shown in To connect to the PC board, be sure to open by removing the solder build-up, and finish the work quickly.

3. Take care not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FFC).

4. Do not turn the variable resistor (laser power adjustment). It has already been adjusted.

5.2. Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention

1. Human body grounding Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body. (As shown in

2. Work table grounding Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the optical pickup is placed, and ground the sheet.

Caution:

The static electricity of your clothes will not be grounded through the wrist strap. So, take care not to let your clothes touch the traverse deck (optical pickup).

7. Self-Diagnostic Function

This unit is equipped with a self-diagnostic function which, in the event of a malfunction, automatically display a code indicating the nature of the malfunction. Use this self-diagnostic function when servicing the unit.

7.1. Switching to the Self-Diagnostic Mode

1. Turn the power on.

2. Press and hold the STOP button for at least 2 seconds, and while still pressing the STOP button, press the FWD SEARCH button for at least 2 seconds. (Refer to

Fig.1.) The unit enters Self-Diagnostic Mode and is displayed “MD TEST”. Then an

error code is displayed, if any. For details of the error codes, refer to

Fig.2. In the

case of no errors, “

3. If more than one error exists, the display will sequentially show the respective error codes each time the FWD SEARCH button is pressed.

----” is displayed on FL.

7.2. Canceling the Self-Diagnostic Mode

1. The Self-Diagnostic Mode can be canceled by pressing the POWER button (POWER) to turn the system off. And then pressing the power button again to turn it again.

7.3. Clearing the Self-Diagnostic Mode

1. The contents of abnormality display are stored in memory. In order to clear the memory, continue to press the STOP button for at least 5 seconds while in the Self-Diagnostic Mode. The memory will clear. Always be sure to clear this memory after completing repair.

8. Self Check Function

This unit is equipped with a self check function which can detect a part of malfunction. Use this function before servicing the unit and check the item as shown below.

8.1. Setting to the Self Check Function

1. Turn the power on.

2. Press and hold the STOP button for at least 2 seconds, and while still pressing the STOP button, press the REV. SEARCH button for at least 2 seconds. Then the unit enters Self Check Function. (Refer to

Fig.3.)

8.2. Checking the operation switches

1. When the unit enters the Self Check Function, the FL display turn off.

2. Press the buttons on the unit except the INPUT SELECTOR button, it displays “-” mark adapted each buttons. (

Fig.4 and Fig.5 is shown about a allotment.)

8.3. Checking the FL display

1. Press the INPUT SELECTOR button.

2. All buttons works normally except the POWER button, FL display and LED turns on and off at 0.5 second interval. (Refer to

Fig.6 and Fig.7.)

The Self Check Function can be canceled by pressing and holding the STOP button for at least 2 seconds.

9. Measurements and Adjustments (Laser Power

Adjustment)

Note:

If you exchange parts of MD unit when you repair, you must perform the Laser

Power adjustment.

Because this unit uses the optical magnetic recording, the unit outputs over 10

times more laser than a CD player does. In the adjustment mode, the laser is always being output. Therefore, be especially careful not to look laser beam directly or to touch the laser beam when adjusting the unit and checking its operation.

9.1. Necessary Instruments

Laser power meter (LE8010) or cartridge type laser power meter

Test disc (Pre-mastered disc RFKV0006 or RFKV0014)

Recordable disc available on sales route (with music recorded)

Insulated driver for adjustment such as a ceramic driver

Remote control transmitter

9.2. Set the Unit to the Adjustmint Mode

1. Supply power to the unit.

2. With no MD loaded in the player, simultaneously press the [

[ seconds until “MD TEST” appears in the display. (Refer to

3. At the Self-Diagnostic Mode, press “1” on the player’s remote control. “RAM LASER” will be displayed to indicate the read power adjustment mode.
