2. Turn the adjustment screw and check output peaks. If the peaks

do not match for L-CH and R-CH, turn the adjustment screw
so that outputs match within 1dB of peak.

3. Mode:  Playback

4. After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to

the pats adjusted.

1. CDG Block is basically designed to operate without

adjustment. Therefore, check each item in order given.

2. Use YEDS-18 disc (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10M

Ω impedance.

4. Clean the object lens by an applicator with neutral detergent

when the signal level is low than specified value with the
following checks.

1. Connect an oscilloscope to test point JPO102 (FE1) and TP

117(VC) on the BD84 board.

2. Turn the power on.
3. Put the disc (YEDS-18) in and turned power switch on again

and actuate the focus search. (actuate the focus search when
disc table is moving in and out)

4. Check the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is symmetrical

between A and B. And confirm peak to peak level within
2.4 

± 1 Vp-p.

S-curve waveform

•

Try to measure several times to make sure than the ratio
of A : B or B : A is more than 10 : 7.

•

Take sweep time as long as possible and light up the
brightness to obtain best waveform.

1. Connect an oscilloscope to test point TP124 (RFAC) and TP

117(VC) on the BD84 board.

2. Turn the power on.
3. Put the disc (YEDS-18) in to playback the number five track.
4. Confirm that oscilloscope waveform is clear and check RFAC

signal level is correct or not.

A clear RFAC signal waveform means that the shape “

◊” can be

clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.

(See page 23.)

1. Connect an oscilloscpe to test point TPO103 (TE1) and TP117

(VC) on the BD84 board.

2. Turn the power on.
3. Select the function “CD”.

                   

4. Press three buttons of [ENTER], M , and

[SURRUUND MODE]  simultaneously to set the CD service
mode.

5. Put the disc (YEDS-18) in to playback the number five track.

                

6. Press the  .    button. The message “TRAVERSE” is

displayed. (The tracking servo and the sledding servo are
turned OFF)

7. Check the level B of the oscilliscope's waveform and the A

(DC voltage) of the center of the Traverse waveform.
Confirm the following :
A/B x 100 = less than 

± 22%

Traverse Waveform

                

8. Press the  .    button. The message “TRAVERSE” is

displayed. (The tracking servo and sledding servo are turned
ON)
Confirm the C (DC voltage) is almost equal to the A (DC
voltage) is step 5.

9. To exit from this mode, perform as follows.

1)

Move the optical pick-up to the most inside track.

                

2) Press three buttons of x , [CLEAR], and [DISPLAY]
simultaneously. (cold reset)

• Always move the optical pick-up to most inside track
when exiting from this mode. Otherwise, a disc will not
be unloaded.
• Do not run the sled motor excessively, otherwise the gear

can be chipped.
