SECTION 3
SERVICE MODE
Connections and Operations When Used Alone
Normally, use the unit connected to the HTC-W555 as follows.
Basically, when servicing the unit, connect the unit as follows.
Even when not connected to the HTC-W555, the unit can operate alone as it mounts a power supply (some functions will however not be
available).
MC Cold Reset
• The cold reset clears all data including preset data stored in the RAM to initial conditions. Execute this mode when returning the set to the
customer.
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons EDIT , ENTER/NEXT , and DISPLAY/DEMO simultaneously.
2. The fluorescent indicator tube becomes blink instantaneously, and the set is reset.
CD Delivery Mode (This mode can be used only when the HTC-W555 is connected.)
• This mode moves the pick-up to the position durable to vibration. Use this mode when returning the set to the customer after repair.
Procedure:
1. Press 1/u button to turn the set ON.
2. Press LOOP button and 1/u button simultaneously.
3. A message “LOCK” is displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube, and the CD delivery mode is set.
MC Hot Reset
• This mode resets the set with the preset data kept stored in the memory. The hot reset mode functions same as if the power cord is plugged
in and out.
Procedure:
1. Press three buttons REPEAT , ENTER/NEXT , and DISPLAY/DEMO simultaneously.
2. The fluorescent indicator tube becomes blink instantaneously, and the set is reset.
Sled Servo Mode (This mode can be used only when the HTC-W555 is connected.)
• This mode can run the CD sled motor freely. Use this mode, for instance, when cleaning the pick-up.
Procedure:
1. Select the function “CD”.
2. Press three buttons FLASH , ENTER/NEXT , and KARAOKE PON/MIX simultaneously.
3. The Sled Servo mode is selected, if “CD” is blinking on the fluorescent indicator tube.
4. With the CD in stop status, press )+ button move the pick-up to outside track, or – 0button to inside track.
5. To exit from this mode, perform as follows:
1) Move the pick-up to the most inside track.
2) Press three buttons in the same manner as step 2.
Note:
• Always move the pick-up to most inside track when exiting from this mode. Otherwise, a disc will not be unloaded.
• Do not run the sled motor excessively, otherwise the gear can be chipped.
Change-over of FUNCTION Name
• The FUNCTION name of external input terminal can be changed over to VIDEO 1 or MD.With the FUNCTION selected to “MD”, about
5dB mute is applied to the input gain.
Procedure:
1. Press 1/u button to turn the set OFF.
2. Press 1/u button together with FUNCTION button, and the power is turned on, the display of fluorescent indicator tube changes to
“MD” or “VIDEO 1” instantaneously, and thus the FUNCTION is changed over.
Change-over of AMTuner Step between 9kHz and 10kHz
• A step of AM channels can be changed over between 9kHz and 10kHz.
Procedure:
1. Press 1/u button to turn the set ON.
2. Select the function “TUNER”, and press TUNER/BAND button to select the BAND “MW”.
3. Press 1/u button to turn the set OFF.
4. Press ENTER/NEXT and 1/u buttons simultaneously, and the display of fluorescent indicator tube changes to “MW step 10” or
“MW step 9”, and thus the channel step is changed over.

LED and Fluorescent IndicatorTube All Lit,Key Check Mode (Do not connect the HTC-W555.)
Procedure:
1. Press 1/u button to turn the set ON.
2. Press the OPEN/CLOSE button to open the sliding panel.
3. Press three buttons DELAY , ENTER/NEXT , and DISPLAY/DEMO simultaneously.
4. LEDs and fluorescent indicator tube are all turned on. Each time the MOVIE button is pressed, the fluorescent indicator tube lights up
as follows:
lights up completely nlights up partially 1 nlights up partially 2 nlights up completely.
5. Press GAME button, and the key check mode is activated.
6. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays “K @@ V0 J0”. Each time a button is pressed, “K”value decreases.
However, once a button is pressed, it is no longer taken into account. (@@ means the total of buttons)
“J” Value increases like 1, 2, 3 ... if rotating JOG knob in “+” direction, or it decreases like 0, 9, 8 ... if rotating in “-” direction.
“V” Value increases like 1, 2, 3 ... if rotating VOLUME knob in “+” direction, or it decreases like 0, 9, 8 ... if rotating in “-” direction.
7. Pressing all buttons lights up the fluorescent indicator tube completely.
8. To exit from this mode, press three buttons EDIT , ENTER/NEXT and DISPLAY/DEMO simultaneously. (COLD RESET)
9. To exit from this mode, press three buttons in the same manner as step 1, or disconnect the power cord.
CD,TAPE Deck Aging Mode (This mode can be used only when the HTC-W555 is connected.)
This mode can be used for checking the operations of the CD player and tape deck.
• When problems occur;
Aging stops, and the stopped state is displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube.
• When no problems;
Aging continues.
Preparations:
• Set the CD on the DISC1 tray.
• Insert a commercially available tape for recording (tapes which contents can be erased, etc.) in decks Aand B.
Setting the aging mode:
Press the PLAY MODE button, ENTER/NEXT button, and STEREO/MONO button together.
When the aging mode is set, the CD roulette mark blinks. To exit the mode, press the 1/u button and turn OFF the power.
Sequence:
The aging mode is executed in the following sequence.
If the function is set to “CD” when the aging mode is set, aging is performed starting from the CD player. When set to “TAPE A” or “TAPE
B”, aging is started from deck A.
If the function is set to others, aging will not be started until the function is switched to CD or TAPE.
Display of status:
• The aging status is displayed on the fluorescent indicator tube.
• Normally, the CD player displays the remaining aging time. But if operations ended abnormally, it displays the cause.
• During the aging of the tape deck, the operations performed will be displayed. If operations ended abnormally, this will be displayed at the
fluorescent display tube.

THIS NOTE IS COMMON FOR PRINTED WIR-
ING BOARDS AND SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS.
(In addition to this, the necessary note is printed
in each block.)
For schematic diagrams.
Note:
• All capacitors are in µF unless otherwise noted. pF: µµF
50 WV or less are not indicated except for electrolytics
and tantalums.
• All resistors are in Ωand 1/4W or less unless otherwise
specified.
•¢: internal component.
•2: nonflammable resistor.
•1: fusible resistor.
•C: panel designation.
For printed wiring boards.
Note:
•X: parts extracted from the component side.
•Y: parts extracted from the conductor side.
•p: parts mounted on the conductor side.
•®: Through hole.
•¢: internal component.
•b: Pattern from the side which enables seeing.
•U: B+ Line.
•V: B– Line.
•H: adjustment for repair.
• Voltages and waveforms are dc with respect to ground
under no-signal (detuned) conditions.
• Voltagesare taken withaVOM (Inputimpedance10 MΩ).
Voltage variations may be noted due to normal produc-
tion tolerances.
• Waveforms are taken with a oscilloscope.
Voltage variations may be noted due to normal produc-
tion tolerances.
• Circled numbers refer to waveforms.
• Signal path.
