Ð 3 Ð Precautions for Checking Emission of Laser Diode Laser light of the equipment is focused by the object lens in the optical pick-up so that the light focuses on the reflection surface of the disc. Therefore, be sure to keep your eyes more then 30cm apart from the object lens when you check the emission of laser diode. Laser Diode Checking Methods During normal operation of the equipment, emission of the laser diode is prohibited unless the upper panel is closed while turning ON the S801 (push switch type). The following two checking methods for the laser diode are operable. Method-1 (In the service mode or normal operation) : Emission of the laser diode is visually checked. 1. Open the upper lid. 2. Push the S801 as shown in Fig. 1 . 3. Check the object lens for confirming normal emission of the laser diode. If not emitting, there is a trouble in the automatic power control circuit or the optical pick-up. During normal operation, the laser diode is turned ON about 2.5 seconds for focus searching. Fig. 2 Digital Voltmeter Connecting Location Method-2 (In the service mode or normal operation) : Check the value of current flowing in the laser diode. 1. Remove the upper panel. 2. Read the current printed on the rear side of the optical pick-up. (Print on the rear side of the optical pick-up) Fig.1 Method to push S801 AC2211397 year version month A : less than 48 mA current value date line No.shift No. 3. Connect a level meter as shown in Fig. 2 4. Press the ^ key. 5. Calculate the current value by the reading of the digital voltmeter Reading of the tester (V) Ö 4.7 ( W ) = current value (A) (Example) Reading of the digital voltmeter of 0.2256 V : 0.2256 V Ö 4.7 W = 0.048 (A) = 48 mA6. Check that the current value is within the following range. +5 ¥ Current value of the label -11 mA(25°C) Variation by temperature : 0.4mA / °C Current increases with temperature increased. Current decreases with temperature decreased. If the current is more than the range above, there is a trouble in the automatic power control circuit or the laser diode is in deterioration. If less than the range, a trouble exists in the automatic power control circuit or the optical pick-up. [MAIN BOARD] (Conductor side) S801 IC501 TP506TP547 TP506 digital voltmeter TP547
