These checks are performed before replacing parts according to
“approximate specifications” to determine the faulty locations. For
details, refer to “Checks Prior to Parts Replacement and Adjustments
in MD” (see page 7).

When performing adjustments, set the internal temperature and room
temperature to 22 to 28ºC.

Procedure:
1. Press the

. 

“R” or

> 

“R” button to display “TEMP

CHECK” (C12).

2. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button.
3. “T=@@(##) [OK]” should be displayed. If “T=@@ (##) [NG]”

is displayed, it means that the results are bad.
(@@ indicates the current value set, and ## indicates the value
written in the non-volatile memory.)

Before checking, check the Iop value of the optical pick-up.
(Refer to 8. Recording and Displaying the Iop Information (see page
36)

Procedure:
1. Set the laser power meter on the objective lens of the optical

pick-up. (When it cannot be set properly, press the  m

 

  button

or  M  button to move the optical pick-up.)
Connect the digital volt meter to CN105 pin 1 (I+3V) and
CN105 pin 2 (Iop).

2. Then, press the

.

“R” or

> 

“R” button and display

“LDPWR CHECK” (C13).

3. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button once and display “L

0.9mW$

”. Check that the reading of the laser power meter

becomes specified value.

4. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button once more and display “ L

7.0mW$

”. Check that the reading the laser power meter and

digital volt meter satisfy the specified value.

Specified Value:
Laser power meter reading :

Digital voltmeter reading : Optical pick-up displayed value 

±

 10%

5. Press the MENU/NO “R” button and display “LDPWR

CHECK” (C13) and stop the laser emission.
(The MENU/NO “R” button is effective at all times to stop the
laser emission.)

After step 4, each time the ENTER/YES “R” button is pressed,

the display will be switched to “L 0.7mW$

”and “L 6.2mW$

”.Nothing needs to be performed here.

Checking Location: BD board (see page 40)

The current Iop value at laser power 7 mW output and reference
Iop value (set at shipment) written in the nonvolatile memory are
compared, and the rate of increase/decrease will be displayed in
percentage.

Perform this function with the optical pick-up set at room tempera-
ture.

Procedure:
1. Press the

.

“R” or

>

 

“R” button to display “Iop Compare”

(C27).

2. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button and start measurements.
3. When measurements complete, the display changes to “

±

 xx%

yy”.
xx is the percentage of increase/decrease, and OK or NG is
displayed at yy to indicate whether the percentage of increase/
decrease is within the allowable range.

4. Press the MENU/NO “R” button to end.

* This disc is used in focus bias adjustment and error rate check.

The following describes how to create a continuous recording
disc.

1. Insert a disc (blank disc) commercially available.
2. Press the

. 

“R” or

>

   

“R” button and display “CREC

1MODE” (C35).

3. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button again to display “CREC 1

MID”.
Display “CREC 1(0300)” and start to recording.

4. Complete recording within 5 minutes.
5. Press the MENU/NO “R” button and stop recording .
6. Press the Z MD  button and remove the disc.

The above has been how to create a continuous recorded data for
the focus bias adjustment and error rate check.

 Be careful not to apply vibration during continuous recording.

This test mode performs CREC and CPLAY automatically for
mainly checking the characteristics of the optical pick-up. To
perform this test mode, the laser power must first be checked.
Perform Auto Check after the laser power check and Iop compare.

1. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button. If “LDPWR 

” is

displayed, it means that the laser power check has not been
performed. In this case, perform the laser power check and Iop
Compare, and then repeat from step1.

2. If a disc is in the mechanical deck, it will be ejected forcibly.

“DISC IN” will be displayed in this case. Load a test disc (MDW-
74/GA-1) which can be recorded.

3. If a disc is loaded at step 2, the check will start automatically.
4. When  “XX CHECK” is displayed, the item corresponding to

XX will be performed.
When “06 CHECK” completes, the disc loaded at step 2 will be
ejected.  “DISC IN” will be displayed. Load the check disc
(TDYS-1).

5. When the disc is loaded in the step 4, the check will automatically

be resumed from “07 CHECK”.

6. After completing to “12 CHECK”, check OK or NG will be

displayed. If all items are OK, “CHK ALL OK” will be displayed.
If any item is NG, it will be displayed as “NG:xxxx”.

When “CHK ALL OK” is displayed, it means that the optical pick-
up is normal. Check the operations of other parts (spindle motor,
sled motor, etc.).
When displayed as “NG:xxxx”, it means that the optical pick-up is
faulty. In this case, replace the optical pick-up.

All the following checks are performed by the Auto Check mode.
They therefore need not be performed in normal operation.
6-6. Traverse Check
6-7. Focus Bias Check
6-8. C PLAY Check
6-9. Self-Recording/Playback Check

Mode which sets the adjustment results recorded in the non-volatile
memory to the initial setting value. However the results of the tempera-
ture compensation offset adjustment will not change to the initial setting
value.
If initial setting is performed, perform all adjustments again excluding the
temperature compensation offset adjustment.
For details of the initial setting, refer to “4. Precautions for Adjustments”
(See page 32) and execute the initial setting before the adjustment as re-
quired.

Procedure:
1. Press the

. 

“R” or

>

 

“R” button to display “ADJ

CLEAR”  (C28).

2. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button.  “Complete!” will be

displayed momentarily and initial setting will be executed, after
which “ADJ CLEAR” (C28) will be displayed.

The Iop data can be recorded in the non-volatile memory. The Iop
value on the optical pick-up label and the Iop value after the
adjustment will be recorded. Recording these data eliminates the
need to read the label on the optical pick-up.

Recording Procedure:
1. Press the

. 

“R” or

 >

 

“R” button to display “Iop Write”

(C05), and press the ENTER/YES “R” button.

2. The display becomes “Ref=@@@.@” (@ is an arbitrary

number) and the numbers which can be changed will blink.

3. Input the Iop value on the optical pick-up label.

To select the number : Press the

. 

“R” or

 >

 

“R” button.

To select the digit : Press the  REC MODE  button.

4. When the ENTER/YES “R” button is pressed, the display

becomes “Measu=@@@.@” (@ is an arbitrary number).

5. As the adjustment results are recorded for the step 4 value. Leave

it as it is and press the ENTER/YES “R” button.

6. “Complete!!” will be displayed momentarily. The value will be

recorded in the non-volatile memory and the display will become
“Iop Write” (C05).

Display Procedure:
1. Press the

. 

“R” or 

 >

 

“R” button to display “Iop Read”(C26).

2. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button.

##.# indicates the Iop value after adjustment

4. To end, press the MENU/NO “R” button to display “Iop Read”

(C26).

Save the temperature data at that time in the non-volatile memory
as 25 ˚C reference data.

1. Usually, do not perform this adjustment.
2. Perform this adjustment in an ambient temperature of 22 ˚C to 28 ˚C.

Perform it immediately after the power is turned on when the internal
temperature of the unit is the same as the ambient temperature of 22 ˚C
to 28 ˚C.

3. When D101 has been replaced, perform this adjustment after the tem-

perature of this part has become the ambient temperature.

Procedure:
1. Press the
