SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original service problem, perform the following

safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

1. Check theareaofyour repair for unsolderedorpoorly-soldered

connections.Checkthe entire board surface for solder splashes

and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are

"pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly

transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point

them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.

4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs

of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and

recommend their replacement.

5. Check the line cord for cracks and abrasion.

Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the

customer.

6. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.

7. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, "metallized" knobs,

screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.

Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE TEST

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 0.5mA (500 microampers).

Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.

1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA

TW-540A. Follow the manufacturers' instructions to use these

instruments.

2. A battery-operatedAC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245

digital multimeter is suitable for this job.

3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a

VOM or battery-operatedAC voltmeter. The "limit" indication

is 0.75V, so analog meters must have an accurate low voltage

scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples

of a passiveVOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated

digital multimeters that have a 2VAC range are suitable. (See

Fig. A)

Unleaded solder

Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-

free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.

(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with

the lead free mark due to their particular size.)

: LEAD FREE MARK

Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.

•Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40°C higher than

ordinary solder.

Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be

applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.

Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to

about 350°C.

Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the

heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!

•Strong viscosity

Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than

ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur such

as on IC pins, etc.

•Usable with ordinary solder

It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may

also be added to ordinary solder.

SERVICE NOTE

1. DISK REMOVAL PROCEDURE IF THE TRAY CANNOT BE EJECTED (FORCED EJECTION)

1. Pull out the power cord.

2. Remove the top case.

3. Prepare a hexagonal wrench or L-shaped stiff wire. (See Fig.1.1)

4. Insert a hexagonal wrench (or hard wire) into a hole on the side of the DVD drive in the right angle. (See Fig. 1-1. and 1-2.)

Note: If a hexagonal wrench (or hard wire) is not inserted in at the right angle, belt may be damaged.

5. Press the rack to open the tray a little.

6. Pull out the tray slowly and gently.

NOTES DURING THE FORCED EJECTION

1. If the forced ejection is executed while a blank disc media (DVD±RW, ±R) exists on the tray

•Insert a DVD-ROM (DVD test disc, DVD software available on the market, or the like) in the tray and then close the tray.

Note1: If you close the tray while it is empty, ejection of the tray becomes impossible.

Note2: If you close the tray with a CD disc inserted in it, the CD can be ejected. However, if you close the tray while it is empty, there can be a case that

ejection of the tray becomes impossible.

Note3: Even if you replace the DVD drive unit while the tray remains under the state as described above, the situation cannot be improved.

2. If the tray cannot be ejected while the disc is not inserted

•Execute the forced ejection.

•Insert a DVD-ROM (DVD test disc, DVD software available on the market, or the like) on the tray and try to close the tray.

(There are cases that it recovers the trouble.)

3. Contents of forcedly ejected blank disc media (DVD±RW, ±R) can be damaged. (There can be a case that initialization is also impossible.)

SECTION 1

GENERAL

RDR-GX7

This section is extracted from instruction

manual. (RDR-GX7 : 3-081-195-71)

Features

This recorder can play DVDs or CDs, record on DVD-Rs, DVD-

RWs or DVD+RWs, and by using a variety of editing functions,

you can enjoy editing recorded programs and other images.

Recording

Dual RW compatible

(page 35)

The recorder is compatible with rewritable disc types, DVD-RW

and DVD+RW, and the write-once type, DVD-R. These

available disc types accommodate a wide range of uses, such as

recording programs and creating personal video libraries. These

discs can be played back on a wide variety of other DVD

equipment.

Various recording/timer recording functions

(page 35)

In addition to the usual recording functions, such as Timer

Recording and VCR Plus+, Synchro Rec allows synchronized

recording with a set top box or similar device.

Automatic searching for recording space

(page 37)

The recorder automatically searches for available blank space on

the disc after you press the Rec button. No searching is required

on your part – a feature possible only with a DVD recorder.

Adjustments for both recording and playback

picture

(page 46, 60)

The recorder allows you to adjust the picture quality of input

sources, such as a VCR, which can then be recorded on a DVD.

For instance, if you want to create an archive of your VHS tapes,

you can adjust the recording picture quality to compensate for

the quality of the tapes. Various picture quality adjustments are

also available for DVD-Video software playback.

Playback

Easy playback with the Title List menu

(page 53)

The recorder will display all of the titles you recorded on a disc

in a list display, called the “Title List.” By selecting a title from

the Title List menu, you can easily start playing or editing the

disc. Moreover, you can have the recorder show the title’s

contents using thumbnail images.

The recorder also automatically takes program label information

from the XDS (Extended Data Service)* and displays it as the

title name.

* not available in some areas

TV Virtual Surround Settings, “TVS”

(page 58)

Using only your TV’s stereo speakers, the recorder is capable of

reproducing dynamic surround sound from DVD-Video

software’s multi-channel audio signals. There are four surround

modes to choose from.

Editing a disc

Playlist edit (DVD-RW in VR mode only)

(page 67)

Youcaneditnotonlytherecordedoriginal title, but also perform

advanced edit functions by creating a Playlist on the same disc.

Since a Playlist does not require much disc space, you can create

numerous Playlist titles. A Playlist edit can be redone as many

times as you like, as the original title remains unchanged.

Chapter Marking function

(page 67)

On DVD-RWs in VR mode, you can manually insert chapter

marks to divide atitle into chapters which will enable you to

quickly find specific scenes for playback or editing. For other

disc types and recording formats, the recorder automatically

creates chapter marks at specified intervals while recording.

Quick Search function

(page 52)

The remote has a Jog Stick for the recorder’s main operations.

You can search forward or backwards, or play at various speeds

by using just your thumb. The feature helps you find scenes

easily, which is especially useful for both playback and editing.

About This Manual

DV Edit

Only one i.LINK cable is required to transfer contents from a

digital video camera to the DVD recorder. Since the recorder

controls the digital video camera, dubbing and editing are easy

to perform.

One Touch Dubbing function

(page 78)

One press on the ONE TOUCH DUB button is enough to

complete the procedure. The recorder controls the digital video

camera from start to finish —from playing the DV/Digital8

format tape to stop and rewind. The entire tape contents are

dubbed to a DVD in the process.

Program Edit

(page 79)

This function allows you to select scenes on a DV/Digital8

format tape and save them on recordable DVDs, including non-

rewritable DVD-Rs. The recorder controls the digital video

camera to record thecontents of a DV/Digital8 format tape to the

disc as programmed. The recorder will remember which scenes

you selected and saves this information as a program. You can

call up a program at any time and make additional copies of the

program to DVDs.

Advanced Program Edit

(page 81)

This function takes advantage of a DVD’s random access

capabilities to enable fast and flexible editing.

The recorder copies the entire contents of a DV/Digital8 format

tape to a DVD-RW in VR mode, whereupon the contents are

automatically divided into chapters. The chapters are displayed

as scenes in a scene list where you can instantly delete or

rearrange the scenes at will. The recorder remembers which

scenes you selected, and saves this information as a program.

You can call up a program at any time and make additional

copies of the program to a DVD.

Auto Scene Chaptering (DVD-RW in VR mode

only)

(page 78, 79, 81)

While copying a DV/Digital8 format tape to a DVD-RW, the

recorder automatically inserts chapter marks at each point where

you started recording on your digital video camera. This enables

you to quickly find the scenes you want during playback and

editing.

DVD Recorder Basics

“What can I expect from DVD recording?”is a

natural question for anyone new to the experience.

This section explains the basic steps involved with

DVD recording.

There are other differences besides just being

rewritable/non-rewritable.

See “Quick Guide to DVD Disc Types” on the back cover

to select a disc most suitable for your needs.

When you want to record repeatedly on the same

disc, or when you want to edit the disc after

recording, select either the rewritable DVD-RW

or DVD+RW type disc.

When you want to save recordings without any

alteration, a non-rewritable DVD-R can be your

choice.

Step 1: Select the disc type

Unlike a video tape which is sold by length, such

as 60 min. or 120 min., recordable DVDs are sold

by type. Select the disc type by following the

chart on the back cover, as each type has different

features.

This recorder can record on the following type of

discs.

Step 2: Format the disc to start recording

Notes

Insert the disc in the recorder. Unlike a VCR, the

recorder automatically starts formatting when an

unused disc is inserted. This is necessary to

prepare the disc for recording.

When using a DVD+RW

These discs will be formatted in DVD+RW Video

format. This type of disc can be played back on a

variety of other DVD equipment.

When using a DVD-R

When formatting is complete, you are

ready to record on the disc.

These discs will be formatted in DVD-Video

format. This type of disc can be played back

on a variety of other DVD equipment.

When using a DVD-RW

This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD

Video format (Video mode) or DVDVideo

Recording format (VR mode). Video mode discs

can be played back on a variety of other DVD

equipment.VR mode discs allow for more varied

editing.

•You cannot mix two formats in one DVD-RW.

•You can change a DVD-RW’s format to the other

format. However, the disc’s contents will be lost

when reformatting.

• Not all discs can be played on other DVD equipment.

Note

DVD Recorder Basics

Step 3: Digital Recording

Record a program. When using the timer, you’ll

find familiar, convenient features as found on

conventionalVCRs, such as VCR Plus+.You can

also dub and edit the contents of connected video

equipment such as a digital video camera.

Step 4: Playing the recorded contents

You can select the title you want to play from a

displayed menu, and immediately start playback.

Recorded contents are more accessible on a disc

than on a tape, the procedure is simple, and

unlike conventional VCRs, no rewinding is

necessary!

What are titles and chapters?

DVD contents consist of sections, called titles,

and smaller sub-sections called chapters.

On this recorder, a title is created between the

points where you start and stop a recording.

Chapters are created automatically at specified

intervals, or can be created manually (DVD-RWs

in VR mode only).

A recorded disc contains title(s), and each title

contains chapter(s)

DVD Recorder Basics

Step 5: Editing the recorded disc

Playing on other DVD equipment

You will find editing discs a lot easier than a

conventional tape, and the recorder offers

numerous edit functions, possible only with

DVDs.

With this recorder, you can create

a Playlist (playback information) on the same

disc, and edit the Playlist without changing the

original recording(s). A Playlist does not take up

much disc space, and all you need is one

recorder and one disc.

Example:You have recorded a few football

games on a DVD-RW in VR mode.You want to

save the original recording, but you also want to

create a digest by putting the goal scenes

together. In this case, you can create a Playlist

by selecting just the goal scenes, leaving the

original recording as it is.

Quick and easy edits on the displayed menu

Editing is performed by simply selecting titles

and scenes from the displayed menus.

Protection of individual titles

With conventional VCRs, you had to protect an

entire tape to save the recordings from erasure

or alteration. This recorder allows you to

individually protect recorded titles (except for

Playlist titles).

Edit and save on a single disc

–Playlist edit (DVD-RWs in VR mode only)

To edit a conventional tape without affecting the

original recording, you had to connect another

VCR, copy the master tape using the twoVCRs

and one more tape, and start editing the copied

tape.

When using a DVD-RW in Video mode

The disc needs to be finalized first to enable

playback on anything other than this recorder.

No more editing or recording can be made on

the disc once it has been finalized. To enable

recording on the disc again, you will need to

format it again. (Reformatting will erase all

previous contents.)

When using a DVD-R

You will need to finalize the disc to play it on

equipment other than this recorder.You cannot

edit or record on the disc once it has been

finalized.

For your DVD to play on other equipment,

finalizing may be necessary in some cases. If so,

finish up all your editing and recording first, and

then finalize the disc.

When using a DVD-RW in VR mode

Although finalizing is generally unnecessary

when playing the disc on VR mode compatible

equipment, playback on some equipment requires

a finalized disc.You can still edit and record on

the disc even after finalizing.

When using a DVD+RW

The recorder automatically finalizes a disc before

ejecting it. Finalizing in this case still allows you

to further edit or record on the disc.

About recording formats

When you insert an unused disc,therecorder automatically starts

formatting. Since available functions differ depending on the

disc type, select the disc that best suits your needs using the chart

below.

You can preset the format for unused DVD-RWs in Options

Setup. When “Format Disc”is set to either “VR”or “Video”

(page 99), the recorder starts formatting in the selected mode

without asking for confirmation. Select “Selectable”if you want

to select the mode each time you insert an unused DVD-RW.

Differences between the disc types

See pages in parentheses for details.

Notes

•To play a recorded disc on other DVD equipment, you need to finalize

the disc. For details on finalizing, see page 73.

•You cannot mix the two formats on one DVD-RW. To change the

disc’s format, reformat the disc (page 74).Note that thedisc’s contents

will be erased after reformatting.

Recording mode

While the recorder is stopped, you can select one of six recording

modes by pressing REC MODE repeatedly for the desired

recording time and picture quality. The picture quality generally

improves as the recording time decreases.

Notes

•The recording times are an estimate and actual times may differ.

•Situations below may cause slight inaccuracies with the recording

time.

of low picture quality

–Recording on a disc that has already been edited

–Recording only a still picture or just sound

the recorder stops recording and a message appears on your TV

screen.

About pictures with Copy Control Signals

will still take up space on the disc.

◆How programs are recorded on a DVD-RW (VR mode)

A program is recorded on the free disc space [a]. Check that the

total remaining disc space is large enough for recording.

◆To free up disc space

You can free up disc space by erasing titles. The original title

used for a Playlist cannot be erased.

To erase a title, see page 65.

To erase multiple titles, see page 65.

◆How programs are recorded on a DVD-RW (Video mode) or

DVD+RW

The recorder searches for the largest block of space [a] and

records there. Check that there is a continuous free block large

enough for the recording. If not, the recording will stop.

◆To check or free up disc space

For DVD-RWs (Video mode) and DVD+RWs only, you can

checkfreedisc space and title location, and also erasetitlesusing

the Disc Map display (see below).

zHint

You can erase all of thedisc’s titles (other than protected titles) at once

(page 73).

Notes

•When you erase titles, the title order may change depending on the disc

type or format.

•After finalizing, you cannot record further on a DVD-RW (Video

mode) or DVD-R.

Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD

•When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise will be

heard from the analog stereo jacks. To avoid possible damage

to the audio system, the consumer should take proper

precautions when the analog stereo jacks of the recorder are

connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital

Surround™playback, an external 5.1-channel decoder system

must be connected to the digital jack of the recorder.

•Set the sound to “Stereo”using the AUDIO button when you

play DTS sound tracks on a CD (page 57).

•Do not play DTS sound tracks without first connecting the

recorder to an audio component having a built-in DTS decoder.

The recorder outputs the DTS signal via the DIGITAL OUT

(COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack even if “DTS”is set to “Off”

in the Audio Setup (page 96), and may affect your ears or cause

your speakers to be damaged.

Notes on playing DVDs with a DTS sound track

•DTS audio signals are output only through the DIGITAL OUT

(COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack.

•When you play a DVD with DTS sound tracks, set “DTS”to

“On”in the Audio Setup (page 96).

•If you connect the recorder to audio equipment without a built-

in DTS decoder, do not set “DTS”to “On”in the Audio Setup

(page 96). A loud noise may come out from the speakers,

affecting your ears or causing the speakers to be damaged.

Notes

•The following type of high-speed discs can be played back on this

recorder: up to 2u-speed DVD-RWs (Revision 1.0), up to 4u-speed

DVD-Rs (Revision 1.0), or up to 4u-speed DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs.

•DVD-RW/-Rs, DVD+RWs/+Rs, or CD-RW/-Rs recorded on another

recording device cannot be played on this recorder if they have not

been correctly finalized. Some discs cannot be played due to the

recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the

characteristics of the recording device and authoring software.

Using the PROGRESSIVE button

You can fine-tune the Progressive 480p video signal output

when you press PROGRESSIVE onthe front panel (the

PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up) and connect the recorder

using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a TV that is able

to accept the video signal in progressive format.

Press PROGRESSIVE repeatedly to toggle the displays as

follows:

•INTERLACE

Select this when you are connected to a standard (Interlace

format) TV.

•PROGRESSIVE

Select this when you are connected to a TV compatible with

progressive signals. The recorder outputs video signals in

progressive format.

◆Conversion modes

DVD software can be divided into two types: film based

software and video based software. Video based software is

derived from the TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays

images at 30 frames/60 fields per second. Film based software is

derived from film and displays images at 24 frames per second.

Some DVD software contains both Video and Film.

In order for these images to appear natural on your screen when

output in PROGRESSIVE mode (60 frames per second), the

progressive video signal needs to be converted to match the type

of DVD software that you are watching. The title recorded on

this recorder is Video based software. If you want to set the

conversion mode for Video based software regardless of the

software type, set “Progressive Mode”in Video Setup to

“Video” (page 95).

Notes

•When you play video based software with progressive signals, sections

of some types of images may appear unnatural due to the conversion

process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

Images from the LINE OUT (S VIDEO) 1/2 and LINE OUT (VIDEO)
