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.

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)
Page 10
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. When replacing the optical pick-up or non-volatile memory (IC171 of BD board), record the IOP value on the optical pick-up according to the following procedure.
Page 11
CN103 (BD board) (7-6-1 : See page 29) Note: The criteria for determination above is intended merely to determine if satisfactory or not, and does not serve as the specified value for adjustments. When performing adjustments, use the specified values for adjustments.

RETRY CAUSE DISPLAY MODE • In this test mode, the causes for retry of the unit during recording can be displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube. During playback, the “track mode” for obtaining track information will be set. This is useful for locating the faulty part of the unit.
Page 13
Lower bit : 7 = 0111 n b0+b1+b2 In this case, as b0, b1, and b2 are 1 and others are 0, it can be determined that the retry cause is combined of “emphasis ON”, “stereo”, “original”, “copyright exists”, and “write prohibited”.
