On this screen, select the disc type. To select the disc type, press
the number of the loaded disc. The selected disc type is displayed
at the bottom. Selecting 

[1]

 automatically selects and displays the

disc type. In case of wrong display, retry “Disc Check Memory”.
Also, opening the tray causes the set disc type to be cleared. In
this case, set the disc type again after loading.
In performing manual operation, the disc type must be set.
Once the disc type has been selected, the sector address or time
code display field will appear as shown below. These values are
displayed when PLL is locked.

On this screen, the servo on/off control necessary for replay is
executed. Normally, turn on each servo from 1 sequentially and
when CLVA is turned on, the usual trace mode becomes active. In
the trace mode, DVD sector address or CD time code is displayed.
This is not displayed where the spindle is not locked.
The spindle could run overriding the control if the spindle system
is faulty or RF is not present. In such a case, do not operate CLVA.
