CAUTION : DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MODIFY THIS PRODUCT IN ANY WAY, NEVER PERFORM CUSTOMIZED INSTALLATIONS WITHOUT MANUFACTURER’S APPROVAL. UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS WILL NOT ONLY VOID THE WARRANTY, BUT MAY LEAD TO YOUR BEING LIABLE FOR ANY RESULTING PROPERTY DAMAGE OR USER INJURY.

SERVICE WORK SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY AFTER YOU ARE THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH ALL OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY CHECKS AND SERVICING GUIDELINES. TO DO OTHERWISE, INCREASES THE RISK OF POTENTIAL HAZARDS AND INJURY TO THE USER.

WHILE SERVICING, USE AN ISOLATION TRANSFORMER FOR PROTECTION FROM A.C. LINE SHOCK.

SAFETY CHECKS

AFTER THE ORIGINAL SERVICE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED. A CHECK SHOULD BE MADE OF THE FOLLOWING.

SUBJECT : FIRE & SHOCK HAZARD

1. BE SURE THAT ALL COMPONENTS ARE POSITIONED IN SUCH A WAY AS TO AVOID POSSIBILITY OF ADJACENT COMPONENT SHORTS. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT ON THOSE MODULES WHICH ARE TRANSPORTED TO AND FROM THE REPAIR SHOP.

2. NEVER RELEASE A REPAIR UNLESS ALL PROTECTIVE DEVICES SUCH AS INSULATORS, BARRIERS, COVERS, SHIELDS, STRAIN RELIEFS, POWER SUPPLY CORDS, AND OTHER HARDWARE HAVE BEEN REINSTALLED PER ORIGINAL DESIGN. BE SURE THAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE POLARIZED LINE PLUG HAS NOT BEEN DEFEATED.

3. SOLDERING MUST BE INSPECTED TO DISCOVER POSSIBLE COLD SOLDER JOINTS, SOLDER SPLASHES OR SHARP SOLDER POINTS. BE CERTAIN TO REMOVE ALL LOOSE FOREIGN PARTICLES.

4. CHECK FOR PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION TO PARTS AND COMPONENTS. FOR FRAYED LEADS, DAMAGED INSULATION (INCLUDING A.C. CORD). AND REPLACE IF NECESSARY FOLLOW ORIGINAL LAYOUT, LEAD LENGTH AND DRESS.

5. NO LEAD OR COMPONENT SHOULD TOUCH A RECIVING TUBE OR A RESISTOR RATED AT 1 WATT OR MORE. LEAD TENSION AROUND PROTRUNING METAL SURFACES MUST BE AVOIDED.

6. ALL CRITICAL COMPONENTS SUCH AS FUSES, FLAMEPROOF RESISTORS, CAPACITORS, ETC. MUST BE REPLACED WITH EXACT FACTORY TYPES, DO NOT USE REPLACEMENT COMPONENTS OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED OR MAKE UNRECOMMENDED CIRCUIT MODIFICATIONS.

7. AFTER RE-ASSEMBLY OF THE SET ALWAYS PERFORM AN A.C. LEAKAGE TEST ON ALL EXPOSED METALLIC PARTS OF THE CABINET, (THE CHANNEL SELECTOR KNOB, ANTENNA TERMINALS. HANDLE AND SCREWS) TO BE SURE THE SET IS SAFE TO OPERATE WITHOUT DANGER OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER DURING THIS TEST USE AN A.C. VOLTMETER, HAVING 5000 OHMS PER VOLT OR MORE SENSITIVITY, IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER; CONNECT A 1500 OHM 10 WATT RESISTOR, PARALLELED BY A .15 MFD. 150.V A.C TYPE CAPACITOR BETWEEN A KNOWN GOOD EARTH GROUND (WATER PIPE, CONDUIT, ETC.) AND THE EXPOSED METALLIC PARTS, ONE AT A TIME. MEASURE THE A.C. VOLTAGE ACROSS THE COMBINATION OF 1500 OHM RESISTOR AND .15 MFD CAPACITOR. REVERSE THE A.C. PLUG AND REPEAT A.C. VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTS FOR EACH EXPOSED METALLIC PART. VOLTAGE MEASURED MUST NOT EXCEED 75 VOLTS R.M.S. THIS CORRESPONDS TO 0.5 MILLIAMP A.C ANY VALUE EXCEEDING THIS LIMIT CONSTITUTES A POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD AND MUST BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY.

SUBJECT: GRAPHIC SYMBOLS

THE LIGHTNING FLASH WITH APROWHEAD SYMBOL. WITHIN AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE, IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE SERVICE PERSONNEL TO THE PRESENCE OF UNINSULATED “DANGEROUS VOLTAGE” THAT MAY BE OF SUFFICIENT MAGNITUDE TO CONSTITUTE A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

SUBJECT : X-RADIATION

1. BE SURE PROCEDURES AND INSTRUCTIONS TO ALL SERVICE PERSONNEL COVER THE SUBJECT OF X-RADIATION. THE ONLY POTENTIAL SOURCE OF X-RAYS IN CURRENT T.V. RECEIVERS IS THE PICTURE TUBE. HOWEVER, THIS TUBE DOES NOT EMIT X-RAYS WHEN THE HIGH VOLTAGE IS AT THE FACTORY SPECIFIED LEVEL. THE PROPER VALUE IS GIVEN IN THE APPLICABLE SCHEMATIC. OPERATION AT HIGHER VOLTAGES MAY CAUSE A FAILURE OF THE PICTURE TUBE OR HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLY AND, UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, MAY PRODUCE RADIATION IN EXCESS OF DESIRABLE LEVELS.

2. ONLY FACTORY SPECIFIED C.R.T. ANODE CONNECTORS MUST BE USED. DEGAUSSING SHIELDS ALSO SERVE AS X-RAY SHIELD IN COLOR SETS, ALWAYS RE-INSTALL THEM.

3. IT IS ESSNTIAL THAT SERVICE PERSONNEL HAVE AVAILABLE AN ACCURATE AND RELIABLE HIGH VOLTAGE METER. THE CALIBRA TION OF THE METER SHOULD BE CHECKED PERIODICALLY AGAINST A REFERENCE STANDARD, SUCH AS THE ONE AVAILABLE AT YOUR DISTRIBUTOR.

4. WHEN THE HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUITRY IS OPERATING PROPERLY THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY OF AN X-RADIATION PROBLEM. EVERY TIME A COLOR CHASSIS IS SERVICED. THE BRIGHTNESS SHOULD BE RUN UP AND DOWN WHILE MONITORING THE HIGH VOLTAGE WITH A METER TO BE CERTAIN THAT THE HIGH VOLTAGE DOES NOT EXCEED THE SPECIFIED VALUE AND THAT IT IS REGULATING CORRECTLY, WE SUGGEST THAT YOU AND YOUR SERVICE ORGANIZATION REVIEW TEST PROCEDURES SO THAT VOLTAGE REGULATION IS ALWAYS CHECKED AS A STANDARD SERVICING PROCEDURE. AND THAT THE HIGH VOLTAGE READING BE RECORDER ON EACH CUSTOMER’S INVOICE.

5. WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAKING TEST MEASUREMENTS IN A PRODUCT WITH A PROBLEM OF EXCESSIVE HIGH VOLTAGE, AVOID BEING UNNECESSARILY CLOSE TO THE PICTURE TUBE AND THE HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLY. DO NOT OPERATE THE PRODUCT LONGER THAN IS NECESSARY TO LOCATE THE CAUSE OF EXCES SIVE VOLTAGE.

6. REFER TO HV. B+ AND SHUTDOWN ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THE APPROPRIATE SCHEMATIC AND DIAGRAMS (WHERE USED).

SUBJECT: IMPLOSION

1. ALL DIRECT VIEWED PICTURE TUBES ARE EQUIPPED WITH AN INTE GRAL IMPLOSION PROTECTION SYSTEM, BUT CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO AVOID DAMAGE DURING INSTALLATION, AVOID SCRATCHING THE TUBE. IF SCRATCHED REPLACE IT.

2. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED FACTORY REPLACEMENT TUBES.

SUBJECT : TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION

1. NEVER INSTALL ANY PRODUCT IN A CLOSED-IN RECESS, CUBBYHOLE OR CLOSELY FITTING SHELF SPACE. OVER OR CLOSE TO HEAT DUCT, OR IN THE PATH OF HEATED AIR FLOW.

2. AVOID CONDITIONS OF HIGH HUMIDITY SUCH AS: OUTDOOR PATIO INSTALLATIONS WHERE DEW IS A FACTOR, NEAR STEAM RADIATORS WHERE STEAM LEAKAGE IS A FACTOR, ETC.

3. AVOID PALCEMENT WHERE DRAPERIES MAY OBSTRUCT REAR VENTING. THE CUSTOMER SHOULD ALSO AVOID THE USE OF DECORATIVE SCARVES OR OTHER COVERINGS WHICH MIGHT OBSTRUCT VENTILATION.

4. WALL AND SHELF MOUNTED INSTALLATIONS USING A COMMERCIAL MOUNTING KIT.

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION : Before servicing the VCR+DVD covered by this service data and its supplements and addends, read and follow the

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. NOTE : if unforeseen circumstances create conflict between the following servicing precautions and any of the safety precautions in this publications, always follow the safety precautions. Remembers Safety First:

General Servicing Precautions

1. Always unplug the VCR+DVD AC power cord from the AC

power source before: (1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit board,

module, or any other assembly.

(2) Disconnection or reconnecting any internal electrical

plug or other electrical connection.

(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an elec-

trolytic capacitor. Caution : A wrong part substitution or incorrect polarity installation of electrolytic capacitors may result in an explosion hazard.

2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this VCR+DVD or any

of its assemblies.

3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean

electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe cleaner, cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, lubrication of contacts is not required.

4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with

whitch instruments covered by this service manual might be equipped.

5. Do not apply AC power to this VCR+DVD and/or any of its

electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat sinks are cerrectly installed.

6. Always connect test instrument ground lead to the

appropriate ground before connection the test instrument positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground lead last.

Insulation Checking Procedure

Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and turn the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter(500V) to the blades of the attachment plug. The insulation resistance between each blade of the attachment plug and accessible conductive parts (Note 1) should be more than 1Mohm. Note 1 : Accessible Conductive Parts including Metal panels, Input terminals, Earphone jacks, etc.

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices

Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field effect transistors and semiconductor chip components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.

3. Use only a grouned-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices.

4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified a “anti-static” can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charge sufficient to damage ES devices.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protec tive package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil, or comparable conductive material).

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.

Caution : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Normally harmless motion such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device.)

Precautions

Handling the unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

When setting the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber of plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

The DVD player is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality will be poor. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.) For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Notes on Discs

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Digital Audio Output

Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the player’s Digital Audio Output according to the type of audio system you use.

DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM: Select “DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM” if you connected the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a Dolby Digital decoder (or an amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby Digital decoder).

Stream/PCM: Select “Stream/PCM” if you connected the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a DTS decoder, Dolby Digital decoder or MPEG decoder.

PCM: Select when connected to a 2-channel digital stereo amplifier. The DVD+VCR outputs sounds in the PCM 2ch format when you play a DVD video disc recorded on the Dolby Digital, MPEG1, or MPEG2 recording system.

Sample Frequency

To change the Sample Frequency setting, first select the desired Digital Audio Output as indicated as above. If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96KHz signals, select 48KHz. When this choice is made, this unit will automatically convert any 96KHz signals to 48KHz so your system can decode them. If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96KHz signals, select 96KHz. When this choice is made, this unit will pass each type of signal through without any further processing.

Others

The DRC, Vocal, PBC, Auto Play, B.L.E., Pluge and DNR settings can be changed.

z Press v/V to select the desired item and press

ENTER/OK. The setting of the selected item is changed between On and Off.

Dynamic Range Control (DRC)

With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.

Vocal

Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will mix into normal stereo sound.

PBC

Set Playback Control (PBC) to On or Off.

On:

Video CDs with PBC are played according to the PBC.

Off:

Video CDs with PBC are played the same way as Audio CDs.

Auto Play

You can set up the DVD Player so a DVD disc automatically starts playing whenever the DVD is inserted. If Auto Play mode is set to On, this DVD player will search a title where playback time is longest and then play back the title automatically.

On: Auto Play function is activated. Off: Auto Play function is not activated.

Note

The Auto Play function may not work for some DVDs.

B.L.E. (Black Level Expansion)

To select the black level of playback pictures. Set your preference and monitor’s ability.

On: Expanded grey scale. (0 IRE cut off) Off: Standard grey scale. (7.5 IRE cut off)

Pluge (Blacker than Black)

For proper adjustment of your television brightness settings utilizing a commercially available test disc.

On:

Select when you adjust the level of your TV using a commercially available test disc that contains pluge signals.

Off: For normal use.

DNR (Digital Noise Reduction)

You can reduce ambient noise in the picture.

DNR1: Normal level DNR2: Expanded level. Off: Off.

Notes

O Actual picture enhancement may vary depending on the

quality of the disc.

O While the DNR2 (expanded level) can provide additional

improvement in the reduction of noise in the video signal, it may produce undesirable picture artifacts on some discs. Should this occur, select a more appropriate DNR level (normal or off).

O Depending on the disc, some picture detail may be lost by

the picture enhancement.

O A DVD audio disc with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack may

be played, some DVD audio discs include moving pictures which may be modified by the above processes.

Notes on MP3 Recordings

About MP3

An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the “.mp3” file extension “MP3 files”.

The player cannot read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than “.mp3”.

MP3 Disc compatibility with this player is limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz .

2. Bit rate / within 32 - 320kbps .

3. CD-R physical format should be “ISO 9660”

4. If you record MP3 files using the software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example “DirectCD” etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We recommend that you use “Easy-CD Creator”, which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it cannot playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3 files, format all the data in the disc or use a new one.

6. File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate “.mp3” extension e.g. “********.MP3”.

7. Do not use special letters such as “/ : * ? “ < > ” etc.

8. Total number of files on the disc should be less than

650.

This DVD+VCR requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files). That require certain pre-existing conditions (see above) to insure compatible playback.

Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3 files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.

Notes on JPEG Recordings

Depending upon the size and number of the JPEG files, it could take a long time for the DVD+VCR to read the disc’s contents. If you don’t see an onscreen display after several minutes, some of the files are too big — reduce the resolution of the JPEG files to less than 2 mega pixels and burn another disc.

Total number of files and folders on the disc should be less than 650.

Some disc may be incompatible due to different recording format or condition of disc.

z When you are using software such as “Easy CD

Creator” to burn the jpeg files into the CD-R, ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg” extensions when copying into the CD layout.

z If the files have “.jpe” or .jpeg extensions, please

rename them as .jpg files.

z File names without .jpg extension will not be able to

be read by this DVD+VCR. Even though the files are shown as JPEG image files in windows explorer.

Additional Operation with tape

Hi-Fi Stereo Sound System (NIC)

Your VCR will record and playback Hi-Fi stereo sound. In addition it has a stereo NICAM digital stereo sound decoder. This allows you to record and playback the sound in several different ways. Video cassettes recorded on your VCR will have a normal mono audio track and two VHS Hi-Fi stereo audio tracks. These stereo tracks allow you to make audio recordings in Hi-Fi stereo or bilingual mode from a TV broadcast, stereo audio system, video disc or another Hi-Fi VCR.

Your VCR’s NICAM digital sound decoder allows you to enjoy broadcasts with NICAM sound, as well as standard stereo, bilingual and mono sound. The particular type of sound received or that recorded will be briefly displayed on the TV screen for a couple of seconds:

STEREO NICAM

Sound is automatically recorded on the Hi-Fi stereo and mono tracks of the video tape.

BIL NICAM

Both audio channels will be recorded on the Hi-Fi stereo tracks. The primary language channel (left) will be recorded on the mono track of the video tape.

MONO

The sound is recorded on the Hi-Fi tracks and the mono track of the video tape without any separation.

Press AUDIO repeatedly until the desired audio mode appears.

The choice is STEREO, LEFT, RIGHT and MONO. In BIL NICAM playback the primary language is output on the left channel and the secondary channel is output simultaneously from the right channel when audio output is set to STEREO. The primary language will be output from both channels when the audio setting is MONO. Please note that when adjusting the tracking control Hi-Fi stereo sound may revert to MONO.

Note

When OFF is selected in NIC, only mono sound will be output.

Blank Search

The Blank Search enables you to locate the end of any recording. Whenever a recording creates, a blank content is recorded on the tape. Press BLANK SEARCH in the stop mode and it rapidly advanced to find blank content. To find next blank content, press BLANK SEARCH again.
