IOP DATA RECORDING AND DISPLAY WHEN OPTICAL PICK-UP AND NON-VOLATILE MEMORY (IC195
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. When replacing the optical pick-up or non-volatile memory (IC195 of BD board),
record the IOP value on the optical pick-up according to the following procedure.

Record Precedure:
1. While pressing the

[ AMS ]

knob and

button simultaneously, connect the power plug to the outlet, and release the

[ AMS ]

knob and

button simultaneously to display “[Check]”.

2. Turn the

[ AMS ]

knob to display “[Service]”, and press the

[YES]

button to display “AUTO CHECK” (C01).

3. Turn the

[ AMS ]

knob to display “Iop Write” (C05), and press the

[YES]

button.

4. The display becomes “Ref=@@@.@” (@ is an arbitrary number) and the numbers which can be changed will blink.
5. Input the IOP value written on the optical pick-up.

To select the number : Turn the

[ AMS ]

knob.

To select the digit

: Press the

[ AMS ]

knob.

6. When the

[YES]

button is pressed, the display becomes “Measu=@@@.@” (@ is an arbitrary number).

@@.@ : indicates the IOP value labeled on the optical pick-up.
##.#

: indicates the IOP value after adjustment

5. To end, press the

[ AMS ]

knob or

[MENU/NO]

button to display “Iop Read” (C26). Then press the

WHEN MEMORY NG IS DISPLAYED

If the nonvolatile memory data is abnormal, “E001 MEMORY NG” will be displayed so that the MD deck does not continue operations.
In this case, set the test mode promptly and perform the following procedure.
