2-1. GENERAL

This set uses the self-diagnostic system in which if an error occurs in playback/recording mode, the error is detected by the model control and power control blocks of the microprocessor and infor- mation on the cause is stored as history in EEPROM.

By viewing this history in test mode, it helps you to analyze a fault and determine its location.

There are two different methods to set the test mode:

1Short BP801 (TEST) on the main board with a solder bridge (connect pin @¤ of IC801 to the ground). Then, turn on the

power.
