  • Page 2: Self-Diagnosis Function

    SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION The self-diagnosis function consists of error codes for customers which are displayed automatically when errors occur, and error codes which show the error history in the test mode during servicing. For details on how to view error codes for the customer, refer to the following box in the instruction manual.
  • Page 3 Items of Error History Mode Items and Contents Selecting the Test Mode Display Details of History total rec Displays the recording time. Displayed as “rππππππh”. The displayed time is the total time the laser is set to the high power state. This is about 1/4 of the actual recording time.

  • Page 6 JIG FOR CHECKING BD BOARD WAVEFORM The special jig (J-2501-149-A) is useful for checking the waveform of the BD board. The names of terminals and the checking items to be performed are shown as follows. GND : Ground I+3V : For measuring IOP (Check the deterioration of the optical pick-up laser) IOP : For measuring IOP (Check the deterioration of the optical pick-up laser) TEO : TRK error signal (Traverse adjustment) VC : Reference level for checking the signal...
  • Page 7 IOP DATA RECORDING AND DISPLAY WHEN OPTICAL PICK-UP AND NON-VOLATILE MEMORY (IC171 OF BD BOARD) ARE REPLACED The IOP value labeled on the optical pick-up can be recorded in the non-volatile memory. By recording the value, it will eliminate the need to look at the value on the label of the optical pick-up.
