Periodic Maintenance
Digital hours meter
The digital hours meter can provide eight items of
information about the operational history of the unit. The
information can be displayed in the time data display area
and also, by text superimposition, on the monitor
connected to the unit. Use the information as a guide in
scheduling periodic maintenance.
For periodic maintenance, consult a Sony service
representative.
Display modes of the digital hours meter
H01: OPERATION HOURS mode
Displays the total number of hours the unit has been
powered on in units of 1 hour.
H02: LASER PARAMETER 0 mode (not
resettable)
Of the two optical heads, this shows a counter of the
cumulative light output time by one optical head in units of
hours.
1)
This can be used as a guide in determining when to replace
the optical head.
1) The counter advances at different rates during recording and playback. It
is also affected by the ambient temperature.
H03: LASER PARAMETER 1 mode (not
resettable)
Same as H02.
Of the two optical heads, this shows a counter of the
cumulative light output time by the other optical head in
units of hours.
1)
1) The counter advances at different rates during recording and playback. It
is also affected by the ambient temperature.
H11: OPERATION HOURS mode (resettable)
Same as H01 except that the count is resettable.
This can be used as a guide in determining when to replace
parts.
H13: SEEK RUNNING HOURS 0 mode (resettable)
Of the two optical heads, this shows the cumulative seek
operation time for one optical head in units of hours. The
count is resettable.
This can be used as a guide in determining when to replace
the seek motor.
H14: SPINDLE RUNNING HOURS mode
(resettable)
This shows the cumulative spindle rotation time, in units of
hours. The count is resettable.
