6.3.1Description

The intention of the electrical service diagnostics is to show the software versions present in the player and to direct the dealer towards defective internal units. The units are : the CDR main board, the CDR loader, the CD loader in case of a DR6050 and the keyboard/display board. A sequence of tests is executed automatically. Some of the tests can be aborted or skipped without the result being taken into account. External tools or disassembly of the unit is not necessary to get the diagnostic information. Pressing keys [PLAY/PAUSE] and [F FWD] simultaneously while switching on the unit, starts the test. Switching off the unit ends the test.

6.3.2Requirements to perform the test

Working keyboard to start up the test.

Working local display to check the output messages. A CD-DA disc with a minimum of 3 tracks in all trays to perform the disc test.

6.3.3Description of the tests

Player information

In this part of the test the following important information can be checked without removing the cover :

Recorder ID.

SW-version back end of player. SW-version CDR loader.

SW-version CD loader (only for DR6050).

CDR main board test

[F FWD] key. The message "DERRn" will be displayed with n indicating the faulty test number.

If one of the tests is aborted with the [F FWD] key, no error message will be displayed for this test. The flash data erase test ("DTST3") can not be aborted !

The CDR main board test consists out of :

DRAM test

Display : "DTST1". The DRAM used for buffer management is tested by writing, reading and verifying test patterns.

disc test is executed to check focus control, disc motor control, radial control and jump grooves control. The disc test is performed by audio play-back of 5 seconds at the beginning, middle and end of the disc.

CDR loader test

During the test, the current disc time is shown. In case of an error the message "BERR1" will be displayed and the [F FWD] key must be pressed to continue with the following test. Pressing the [F FWD] key also aborts this test.

CD loader test

For DR6050 only. During the test, the current disc time is shown. In case of an error the message "BERR2" will be displayed and the [F FWD] key must be pressed to continue with the following test. Pressing the [F FWD] key also aborts this test.

Display test

All segments will blink at a frequency of 1 Hz. Pressing the [F FWD] key will start the next test because the user has to check for himself if all segments work properly.

Keyboard and remote control tests

The test will give the user the ability to test every key without executing the function assigned to it. Therefore, the user needs to press every key on the keyboard and the remote control. The display will show the name of the key being pressed. Pressing more than one key at once will give an unpredictable result except for the service combinations : [PLAY/PAUSE] + [STOP], [PLAY/PAUSE] + [F FWD], [F FWD] + [REWIND], [ERASE] + [RECORD], [PLAY/PAUSE] + [RECORD].

Flash checksum test

Display : "DTST2". This test checks the checksum of the player's SW stored in the flash.

Flash data erase

Display : "DTST3". During this test, all temporary information (CDtxt) in the flash is erased.

CODEC (ADC/DAC) test

Display : "DTST4". This test checks the CODEC IC by writing, reading and verifying test patterns. The test is not applicable for CDR950.

CDR communication test

Display : "DTST5". The communication between the host processor (DASP) and the CDR loader via the DSA-R-bus is tested.

CD communication test

Display : "DTST6"). The communication between the host processor (DASP) and the CD loader is tested. The test is only applicable for DR6050.

Loader tests

These tests determine if the CDR loader and the CD loader in case of a DR6050 w ork correctly. A CD-DA disc with a minimum of 3 tracks needs to be inserted in both loaders. A

No external tools are required to perform this test. The cover needs to be removed because the user has to check the movements of the tray, focus and sledge visually. Pressing keys [PLAY/PAUSE] and [STOP] simultaneously while switching on the unit, starts the test. Switching off the unit ends the test. In case of a DR6050, one can check the CD loader mechanics in the same way by pressing the above key combination on the CD player keys.
