1.4 Service position
This unit has been designed so that the Mechanism and Main board assemblies can be removed together from the chassis assembly. Before diagnosing or servicing the circuit boards, take out the major parts from the chassis assembly.
1.4.1
How to set the "Service position”
(1) Refer to the disassembly procedure and perform disassembly of the major parts before removing the Cassette housing assembly.
(2) Remove the combined Cassette housing, Mechanism and Main board assemblies.
(3) Connect the wires and connectors of the major parts that have been removed in step (1). (Refer to Fig. 1-4-1a.)
(4) Place the combined Mechanism and Main board assemblies upside down.
(5) Insert the power cord plug into the power outlet and then proceed with the diagnostics and servicing of the board assembly.
Notes:
• Before inserting the power cord plug into the power outlet, make sure that none of the electrical parts are able to short-circuit between the workbench and the board assembly
• For the disassembly procadure of the major parts and details of the precautions to be taken, see “1.3 Disassembly/assembly method”.
• If there are wire connections from the Main board and
Mechanism assemblies to the other major parts, be sure to remove them first before performing step (2).
• When carrying out diagnosis and repair of the Main board assembly in the “Service position”, be sure to ground both the Main board and Mechanism assemblies. If they are improperly grounded, there may be noise on the playback picture or FDP counter display may move even when the mechanism is kept in an inoperative status.
• In order diagnose the playback or recording of the cassette tape, set the Mechanism assembly to the required mode before placing it upside down. If the mechanism mode is changed (including ejection) while it is in an upside down position the tape inside may be damaged.
• When checking the operation or performing adjustments to the VCP main unit, it is necessary to connect the power cable (Car Cable) to the VCP main unit so that DC power is supplied. Also, when using the remote control unit, it is required to connect the IR receiver. (by using either the provided or optional accessories)

EMG content description
Note: EMG contents “E08/E09” are for the model with Dynamic Drum (DD).
FDP
E01: Loading EMG
CONTENT
When the mechanism mode cannot be changed to another mode even when the loading motor has rotated for more than 4 seconds in the loading direction, [E:01] is identified and the power is turned off.
E02: Unloading EMG When the mechanism mode cannot be changed to another mode even when the loading motor has rotated for more than 4 seconds in the unloading direction, [E:02] is identified and the power is turned off.
E03: Take Up Reel
Pulse EMG
When the take-up reel pulse has not been generated for more than 4 seconds in the capstan rotating mode, [E:03] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off. However, the reel EMG is not detected in STILL/SLOW modes.
CAUSE
1. The mechanism is locked in the middle of mode transition.
2. The mechanism is locked at the loading end due to the encoder position reading error during mode transition.
3. Power is not supplied to the loading MDA.
1. The mechanism is locked in the middle of mode transition.
2. The mechanism is locked at the unloading end due to the encoder position reading error during mode transition.
3. Power is not supplied to the loading MDA.
E04: Drum FG
EMG
When the drum FG pulse has not been input for more than 3 seconds in the drum rotating mode, [E:04] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off.
1. The take-up reel pulse is not generated in the FWD transport modes (PLAY/
FWD SEARCH/FF, etc.) because;
1) The idler gear is not meshed with the take-up reel gear;
2) The idler gear is meshed with the take-up reel gear, but incapable of winding due to too large mechanical load (abnormal tension);
3) The take-up reel sensor does not output the FG pulse.
2. The supply reel pulse is not generated in the REV transport modes (REV
SEARCH/REW, etc.) because;
1) The idler gear is not meshed with the supply reel gear.
2) The idler gear is meshed with the supply reel gear, but incapable of winding due to too large a mechanical load (abnormal tension);
3) The supply reel sensor does not output the FG pulse.
3. Power is not supplied to the reel sensors.
1. The drum could not start or the drum rotation has stopped due to too large a load on the tape, because;
1) The tape tension is abnormally high;
2) The tape is damaged or a foreign object (grease, etc.) adheres to the tape.
2. The drum FG pulse did not reach the System controller CPU because;
1) The signal circuit is disconnected in the middle;
2) The FG pulse generator (hall device) of the drum is faulty.
3. The drum control voltage (DRUM CTL V) is not supplied to the MDA.
4. Power is not supplied to the drum MDA.
E05: Cassette Eject
EMG
E06: Capstan FG
EMG
When the eject operation does not complete in 3 seconds after the start, [E:05] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off.
When the cassette insertion operation does not complete in 3 seconds after the start, the cassette is ejected. In addition, when the operation does not complete within
3 seconds after the start, [E:05] is also identified and the power is turned off immediately.
When the capstan FG pulse has not been generated for more than 1 second in the capstan rotating mode, [E:06] is identified, the pinch rollers are turned off and stopped, and the power is turned off.However, the capstan EMG is not detected in STILL/SLOW/FF/REW modes.
1. The cassette cannot be ejected due to a failure in the drive mechanism of the housing.
2. When the housing load increases during ejection, the loading motor is stopped because of lack of headroom in its drive torque.
Housing load increasing factors: Temperature environment (low temperature, etc.), mechanism wear or failure.
3. The sensor/switch for detecting the end of ejection are not functioning normally.
4. The loading motor drive voltage is lower than specified or power is not supplied to the motor (MDA).
5. When the user attempted to eject a cassette, a foreign object (or perhaps the user's hand) was caught in the opening of the housing.
1. The capstan could not start or the capstan rotation has stopped due to too large a load on the tape, because;
1) The tape tension is abnormally high (mechanical lock);
2) The tape is damaged or a foreign object (grease, etc.) is adhered to the tape (occurrence of tape entangling, etc.).
2. The capstan FG pulse did not reach the System controller CPU because;
1) The signal circuit is disconnected in the middle;
2) The FG pulse generator (MR device) of the capstans is faulty.
3. The capstan control voltage (CAPSTAN CTL V) is not supplied to the MDA.
4. Power is not supplied to the capstan MDA.
1. The SW 5 V power supply circuit is shorted with GND.
2. The SW 12 V power supply circuit is shorted with GND.

Head clog warning
When short-circuiting of the SW power supply with GND has lasted for 0.5 second or more, [E:07] is identified, all the motors are stopped and the power is turned off.
When DD tilting does not complete in 4 seconds, [E:08] is identified, the tilt motor is stopped and the power is turned off.
When the DD FG pulse is not generated within 2.5 seconds, [E:09] is identified, the tilt motor is stopped and the power is turned off.
1. The absolute value sensor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)
2. The pull-up resistor at the absolute sensor output is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)
3. Contact failure or soldering failure of the pins of the connector (board-to-board) to the absolute value sensor.
4. The absolute value sensor data is not sent to the System Controller CPU.
1. The FG sensor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)
2. The pull-up resistor at the FG sensor output is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)
3. Contact failure or soldering failure of the pins of the connector (board-to-board) to the FG sensor.
4. The power to the sensor is not supplied. (Connection failure/soldering failure)
5. The FG pulse is not sent to the System Controller CPU.
6. The tilt motor is defective. (The soldered parts have separated.)
7. The drive power to the tilt motor is not supplied. (Connection failure/soldering failure)
8. The tilt motor drive MDA - IC is defective.
9. Auto-recovery of the DD tilting cannot take place due to overrun.
When the supply reel pulse has not been generated for more than 10 seconds in the capstan rotating mode,
[E:0A] is identified and the cassette is ejected (but the power is not turned off). However, note that the reel EMG is not detected in the SLOW/STILL mode.
1. The supply reel pulse is not generated in the FWD transport mode (PLAY/
FWD SEARCH/FF, etc.) because;
1) PLAY/FWD or SEARCH/FF is started while the tape in the inserted cassette is cut in the middle;
2) A mechanical factor caused tape slack inside and outside the supply reel side of the cassette shell. In this case, the supply reel will not rotate until the tape slack is removed by the FWD transport, so the pulse is not generated until then;
3) The FG pulse output from the supply reel sensor is absent.
2. The take-up reel pulse is not generated in the REV transport mode (REV
SEARCH/REW, etc.).
1) REV SEARCH/REW is started when the tape in the inserted cassette has been cut in the middle;
2) A mechanical factor caused tape slack inside and outside the take-up reel side of the cassette shell. In this case, the supply reel will not rotate until the tape slack is removed by the REV transport, so the pulse will not be generated until that time;
3) The FG pulse output from the take-up reel sensor is absent.
3. The power to a reel sensor is not supplied.
Presupposing the presence of the control pulse output in the PLAY mode, when the value obtained by mixing the two V.FM output channels (without regard to the A.FM output) has remained below a certain threshold level for more than 10 seconds, [E:C1] or [E:U1] is identified and recorded in the emergency history. During the period in which a head clog is detected, the FDP and OSD repeat the
“3-second warning display” and “7-second noise picture display” alternately.
EMG code : “E:C1” or “E:U1” / FDP : “U:01” / OSD : “Try cleaning tape.” or “Use cleaning cassette.”
The head clog warning is reset when the above-mentioned threshold has been exceeded for more than 2 seconds or the mode is changed to another mode than PLAY.

SECTION 2
MECHANISM ADJUSTMENT
2.1 Before starting repair and adjustment
2.1.1 Precautions
(1) Unplug the power cord plug of the VCR before using your soldering iron.
(2) Take care not to cause any damage to the conductor wires when plugging and unplugging the connectors.
(3) Do not randomly handle the parts without identifying where the trouble is.
(4) Exercise enough care not to damage the lugs, etc. during the repair work.
(5) Install the cassette housing assembly only when the mechanism is in the “Mechanism assembling mode” position. (See 2.2.2.)
(6) When reattaching the front panel assembly, make sure that the door opener of the cassette housing assembly is lowered in position prior to the reinstallation. (See SEC-
TION 1 DISASSEMBLY.)
(7) When checking the operation or performing adjustments to the VCP main unit, it is necessary to connect the power cable (Car Cable) to the VCP main unit so that DC power is supplied. Also, when using the remote control unit, it is required to connect the IR receiver. (by using either the provided or optional accessories)
2.1.2 Checking for proper mechanical operations
Enter the mechanism service mode when you want to operate the mechanism when no cassette is loaded. (See 1.5
Mechanism service mode.)
2.1.3 Manually removing the cassette tape
If you cannot remove the cassette tape which is loaded because of any electrical failure, manually remove it by taking the following steps.
(1) Unplug the power cord plug from the power outlet.
(2) Refer to the disassembly procedure and perform the disassembly of the major parts before removing the Cassette housing assembly.
(3) Unload the pole base assembly by manually turning the loading motor of the mechanism assembly toward the front. In doing so, hold the tape by the hand to keep the slack away from any grease. (See Fig.2-1-3a.)
(4) Bring the pole base assembly and guide arm assembly to a pause when it reaches the position where it is hidden behind the cassette tape.
(5) Remove the cassette housing assembly by holding both the slackened tape and the cassette lid.
(6) Take up the slack of the tape into the cassette. This completes removal of the cassette tape.
Note:
• For the disassembly procedure of the major parts and details of the precautions to be taken, see “1.3 Disassembly/assembly method”.

2. Cleaning
Regular cleaning of the transport system parts is desirable but practically impossible. So make it a rule to carry out cleaning of the tape transport system whenever the machine is serviced.
When the video head, tape guide and/or brush get soiled, the playback picture may appear inferior or at worst disappear, resulting in possible tape damage.
(1) When cleaning the upper drum (especially the video head), soak a piece of closely woven cloth or Kimu-wipe with alcohol and while holding the cloth onto the upper drum by the fingers, turn the upper drum counterclockwise.
Note:
• Absolutely avoid sweeping the upper drum vertically as this will cause damage to the video head.
(2) To clean the parts of the tape transport system other than the upper drum, use a piece of closely woven cloth or a cotton swab soaked with alcohol.
(3) After cleaning, make sure that the cleaned parts are completely dry before using the video tape.
3. Lubrication
With no need for periodical lubrication, you have only to lubricate new parts after replacement. If any oil or grease on contact parts is soiled, wipe it off and newly lubricate the parts.
Note:
• See the “mechanism assembly” diagram of the parts list for the lubricating or greasing spots, and for the types of oil or grease to be used.
• Grease is not required for a replacement cassette housing assembly, as this has been applied at the factory.
4. Suggested servicing schedule for main components
The following table indicates the suggested period for such service measures as cleaning,lubrication and replacement.
In practice, the indicated periods will vary widely according to environmental and usage conditions.However, the indicated components should be inspected when a set is brought for service and the maintenance work performed if necessary. Also note that rubber parts may deform in time,even if the set is not used.

Installation of major parts (Mechanism phase alignment)
2.3.1 Before assembly
The mechanism of this model is closely related with the rotary encoder and the system control circuitry. The connection between the rotary encoder and control cam determines the movement of all mechanical parts including the slide plate, loading arm assembly, control plate and brake. If these parts are not installed in the correct positions, operations such as loading and unloading will not be possible.
Installation of the major parts (mechanism phase alignment) should be performed exclusively in the mechanism assembling mode, as with the operations in the previous sections.

2.5 Compatibility adjustment
Notes:
• Although compatibility adjustment is very important, it is not necessary to perform this as part of the normal servicing work. It will be required when you have replaced the audio control head, drum assembly or any part of the tape transport system.
• To avoid any damage to the alignment tape while performing the compatibility adjustment, get a separate cassette tape (for recording and play back) ready to be used for checking the initial tape running behavior.
• Unless otherwise specified, all measuring points and adjustment parts are located on the Main board.
• When using the Jig RCU, set its custom code to match the custom code of the VCR.

(3) Set the VCR to the manual tracking mode.
(4) Make sure that there is no significant level drop of the
V.PB FM waveform caused by the tracking operation, with its generally parallel and linear variation ensured. Perform the following adjustments when required. (See Fig.
2-5-1a.)
(5) Using a hexagonal wrench, gently loosen the set screw at the bottom of the pole base assembly. (Be careful not to loosen it too much.) (See Fig. 2-5-1b.)
(6) Reduce the V.PB FM waveform by the tracking operation. If a drop in level is found on the left side, turn the guide roller of the pole base assembly (supply side) with the roller driver to make the V.PB FM waveform linear.
If a drop in level is on the right side, likewise turn the guide roller of the pole base assembly (take-up side) with the roller driver to make it linear. (See Fig. 2-5-1c.)
2-12
(7) Make sure that the V.PB FM waveform varies in parallel and linearly with the tracking operation again. When required, perform fine-adjustment of the guide roller of the pole base assembly (supply or take-up side).
(8) Unload the cassette tape once, play back the alignment tape (A1) again and confirm the V.PB FM waveform.
(9) After adjustment, confirm that the tape wrinkling does not occur at the roller upper or lower limits. (See Fig. 2-5-
1d.)
(10)After completing adjustment, tighten the set screw at the bottom of the pole base assembly. (Be careful not to tighten it too much.) (See Fig. 2-5-1b.)
[Perform adjustment step (11) only for the models equipped with SP mode and EP (or LP) mode.]
