 DRIVE MANUAL OPERATION

Note: This mode is used for design, and not used in service fundamentally.
On the Test Mode Menu screen, press the [2] key on the remote commander, and the Operation Menu will be displayed. For the manual operation, each servo on/off control and adjustment can be executed manually.

In using the manual operation menu, take care of the following points. These commands do not provide protection, thus requiring correct operation. The sector address or time code field is displayed when a disc is loaded.

Note:
1. Set correctly the disc type to be used on the Disc Type screen.
2. In case of an alarm, exit the manual operation menu immediately to stop the servo operation, and press the I/1 button to turn the power off.

Basic operation:
(controllable from front panel or remote commander)
[POWER] : Power OFF (release the Test Mode) Stop and eject/Loading
[RETURN] : Return to Operation Menu or Test Mode Menu
[PREV ], [NEXT ] : Transition between sub modes of menu [1] to [9], [10/0] : Selection of menu items Cursor Up/Down: Increase/Decrease in manually adjusted value

Servo Control.
Note: Be sure to perform the disc type setup before performing this item.

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.
[1] LD : Turn on/off the laser.
[2] Focus : Search the focus and turn on the focus.
[3] SPDL : Turn on/off the spindle.
[4] CLVA : Turn on/off normal servo of spindle servo.
[5] Trk. : Turn on/off the tracking servo.
[6] Sled : Turn on/off the sled servo.
[7] FCS. Srch : Turn on/off the focus search.
[8] FCS. OppL : Turn on/off the focus search to another (oposite) layer of designated layer in Disc
Type setting. (dual layer disc only) [10/0] : All servo off.
(right cursor) : Move the sled forward.
(left cursor) : Move the sled reverse.
(up cursor) : Reset the sled.
(down cursor) : Limit in the sled.

Track/Layer Jump.

On this screen, track jump, etc. can be performed. Only for the DVD dual layer disc, the focus jump and layer jump are displayed in the right field
[1] 1Tj FWD : 1 track jump forward.
[2] 1Tj REV : 1 track jump reverse.
[3] 500Tj FWD : 500 track jump (fine search)forward.
