5.Then “LD 7.0 mW $ ” will be displayed.

6.Press the =0/MD/CD/TUNING – button or )+/ MD/CD/TUNING + button so that the reading of the laser power meter becomes 6.9 to 7.1 mW, press the ENTER/YES “R” but-

ton and save it.

Note : Do not perform the emission with 7.0 mW more than 15 seconds continuously.

7.Then, Press the =0/MD/CD/TUNING – button or )+/MD/CD/TUNING + button and display “LDPWR

CHECK”.

8.Press the ENTER/YES “R” button once and display “LD 0.9 mW $ ”. Check that the reading of the laser power meter be- come 0.85 to 0.91 mW.

9.Press the ENTER/YES “R” button once more and display “LD 7.0 mW $ ”. Check that the reading the laser power meter and digital volt meter satisfy the specified value.

Note down the digital voltmeter reading value.

Specified Value :

Laser power meter reading : 7.0 ± 0.1 mW

Digital voltmeter reading : Optical pick-up displayed value ± 10%

10. Press the MENU/NO “R” button and display “LDPWR CHECK” and stop the laser emission.

(The MENU/NO “R” button is effective at all times to stop the laser emission.)

11. Press the =0/MD/CD/TUNING – button or)+/ MD/CD/TUNING + button to display “Iop.Write”.

12. Press the ENTER/YES “R” button. When the display becomes Ref=@@@.@ (@ is an arbitrary number), press the ENTER/

YES “R” button to display “Measu=@@@.@” (@ is an arbi- trary number).

13. The numbers which can be changed will blink. Input the Iop value noted down at step 9.

To select the number : Press the =0/MD/CD/TUNING –

button or )+/MD/CD/TUNING + button. To select the digit : Press the SYNC REC button.

14. When the ENTER/YES “R” button is pressed, “Complete!” will be displayed momentarily. The value will be recorded in the non-volatile memory and the display will become “Iop Write”.

Note 1: After step 4, each time the ENTER/YES “R” button is pressed, the display will be switched between “LD 0.7 mW

$ ”, “LD 6.2 mW $ ”, and “LD Wp $ ”. Nothing needs to be performed here.
