Auto power on/off function
When you remove the headphones from your
head, the power turns off automatically. Do not
allow the self adjusting band to be pulled up,
otherwise the headphones will be switched on.
The power turns on.

from instruction manual.
1. Check theareaofyourrepair for unsolderedor poorly-soldered
connections. Checkthe entire boardsurface forsolder 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 partswhich, through functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and
recommend their replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS
Notes:
1. Use transmitter with check and adjustment already completed.
2. On adjusting the headphones section, use the transmitter as a
jig. Headphones:MDR-RF815R
Transmitter:TMR-RF815R
Procedure:
1. Connect an oscillator with attenuator and terminator (600 Ω)
to the transmitter AUDIO IN-A connector (J402).
2. Connect anACadapterto thetransmitter DC IN9V jack (J404).
3. Connect lead wires to IC301 pin 4, pin 6, pin 7 and GND on
the RX-BASE board.
4. Connect a resistor 33k Ωbetween IC301 pin 4 and pin 7.
5. Connect lead wires to the speakers’ terminals (L+,L-,R+,R-)
on the RX-BASE board.
3-1. Free run frequency check and adjustment
1. Set the transmitterAUDIO IN-A connector (J402) to no signal.
Note: In this case, operation time is about 4 or 5 minutes.
2. Check the transmitter power indicator (red) lights.
3. Set the transmitter CHANNEL switch to 1.
4. Set the head phones tuning (RV303) to center position.
5. Connect a frequency counter to IC301 pin 4 and GND on the
RX board.
6. Adjust the value of the frequency counter to specification by
RV301 on the RX-BASE board.
Specified Values: 76kHz ± 50Hz.
3-2. Receive frequency check and adjustment
1. Set the transmitter CHANNEL switch to 2.

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-
soldered connections. Check the 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, through functioning, show obvious
signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer
and recommend their replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor
of the circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when
soldering
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS
Send Frequency Check
1. Set the noise filter SW to OFF.
2. Input a signal of 1 kHz 40 mVrms to only the L-CH (J402).
3. Connect a telescopic antenna to the frequency counter input
and extend the antenna to a length of approximately 8 cm.
4. PlaceTX-BASE board close to thefrequencycounter, then mea-
sure the frequencies of CH1, CH2 and CH3 and make sure the
values are as follows:
CH1 : 863.5 MHz ± 40 kHz
CH2 : 864.0 MHz ± 40 kHz
CH3 : 864.5 MHz ± 40 kHz
Whenthe frequencyis not satisfied thespecifiedvalue,exchange
vco unit. When completed with replacement, recheck the
frequecies of CH1, CH2 and CH3.

1. Set the channel to CH2.
2. No signal input (The operating time in this case is limited to 4
or 5 minutes.)
3. Measure the movable terminal of RV403 using an digital volt-
meter(ACrange)andmake surethe valueis1.6mVrms ±0.1mV.
If the measured value is other than the specified value,adjust to
1.6mVrms ± 0.1mV by turning the RV403 on the TX-BASE
board.
