SAFETY CHECK-OUT
DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL Connector type: square optical Rated output: 18 dBm Load impedance: 660 nm (optical wave length) DIGITAL OUT COAXIAL Jack type: phono Rated output: 0.5 Vp-p (at 75 ) Load impedance: 75 After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer: Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, "metallized" knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes). Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods. 1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers' instructions to use these instruments. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The "limit" indication is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)

SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
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. For details on how to check error codes during servicing, refer to the following "Procedure for using the SelfDiagnosis Function (Error History Display Mode)". The deck's self-diagnosis function automatically checks the condition of the MD deck when an error occurs, then issues a three- or five-digit code and an error message on the display. If the code and message alternate, find them in the following table and perform the indicated countermeasure. Should the problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Three- or fivedigit code/ Message C11/Protected
Cause/Remedy The inserted MD is record-protected. Take out the MD and close the recordprotect slot. You tried to record a CD with a format that the external device connected to the deck does not support, such as CD-ROM or video CD. Remove the disc and insert a music CD. The recording was not made properly. Set the deck in a stable surface, and repeat the recording procedure. The inserted MD is dirty (with smudges, fingerprints, etc.), scratched, or substandard in quality. Replace the disc and repeat the recording procedure. The deck could not read the TOC on the MD properly. Take out the MD and insert it again. The deck could not read the TOC on the MD properly. Insert another disc.

[How to Record and Display the IOP Data When Replacing the Optical Pick-up and Non-volatile Memory (BD Board IC171)]
The IOP data that is indicated on the optical pick-up, can be saved in the non-volatile memory of the MDS-JA333ES. Saving the IOP data in the memory eliminates the needs to look at the printed value on the label that is attached on the surface of optical pick-up, and enables to view the IOP data on display. When the optical pick-up is replaced or when the non-volatile memory (IC171 on BD board) is replaced, save the IOP value that is printed on the label on the surface of optical pick-up by the following procedure.
How to Record the IOP Data: 1. While pressing the lAMSL knob and the x button at the same time, connect the AC power plug to the wall outlet, then remove your hands from the lAMSL knob and x button at the same time. When the MDS-JA333ES enters the test mode, the message "[Check]" appears. 2. Rotate the lAMSL knob until the message "Service" appears. Then press the YES button. 3. Rotate the lAMSL knob until the message "Iop Write" (C05) appears. Then press the YES button. 4. "Ref=@@@.@" (@ is arbitrary number) appears and the values that can be changed as desired flash. 5. Input the IOP value that is printed on the optical pick-up. Selection of alphanumeric characters : Rotate the lAMSL knob. Selection of digit : Press the lAMSL knob. 6. Press the YES button. Then display changes to "Measu= @@@.@" (@ is arbitrary number). 7. The value that is shown step 6, is the result adjustment and should not be saved. So leave the value of step 6 as it is, and press the YES button. 8. The message "Complete!" appears for a moment, and the value is saved in the non-volatile memory. The message "Iop Write" (C05) appears. 9. Upon completion of data saving, press the REPEAT button.

5-2. Precautions for Checking Laser Diode Emission
To check the emission of the laser diode during adjustments, never view directly from the top as this may lose your eye-sight.
5-3. Precautions for Use of Optical Pick-up (KMS-260B)
As the laser diode in the optical pick-up is easily damaged by static electricity, solder the laser tap on the flexible board of the optical pick-up when using it. Before disconnecting the connector, disorder the laser tap. Be careful not to remove the solder before connecting the connector. Also take adequate measures to prevent damage by static electricity. Handle the flexible board with care as it breaks easily.
Pick-up Flexible board
2) Set the test mode when performing the adjustments. After completing the adjustments, exit the test mode. Perform the adjustments and checks in "Group S" of the test mode. 3) Perform the necessary adjustments only in the order given. 4) Use the following tools and measuring devices. · Check disc (MD) TDYS-1 (Parts No.: 4-963-646-01) · Test disc (MDW-74/GA-1) (Parts No.: 4-229-747-01) · Laser power meter LPM-8001 (Parts No.: J-2501-046-A) Or · MD laser power meter 8010S (Parts No.: J-2501-145-A) (Note) · Oscilloscope (Measure after perform the CAL of the probe.) · Digital voltmeter · Thermometer · Tool for checking waveform of BD board (Parts No.: J-2501149-A) 5) When observing several signals on the oscilloscope, etc., make sure that VC and ground do not connect inside the oscilloscope. (VC and ground will become short-circuited.) 6 When checking the waveform, the check can be performed without soldering by using the tool for checking waveform of BD board. (Refer to the Service note (page 7).) 7) Use the tool disc that is free from finger print and dust as they can affect result of adjustment. Note: Laser power meter When the laser power check and adjustment of the electrical adjustment are performed, using the new MD laser power meter 8010S (J-2501-145-A) instead of the former laser power meter is recommended. The procedure of installing the laser meter sensor to the objective lens of pick-up is greatly simplified.
