Alternatively, switch the power to the standby mode, disconnect the AC mains lead and then re-connect it. If the service number fails to be cleared even when the remedial action is taken, ask for the service engineer to repair the player. 45 Definition of terms Angle Recorded onto some DVD discs are scenes which have been simultaneously shot from a number of different angles (the same scene is shot from the front, from the left side, from the right side, etc.). With such discs, the ANGLE button can be used to view the scene from different angles. Chapter number These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. A title is subdivided into many sections, each of which is numbered, and specific parts of video presentations can be searched quickly using these numbers. DVD This refers to a high-density optical disc on which high-quality pictures and sound have been recorded by means of digital signals. Incorporating a new video compression technology (MPEG II) and high-density recording technology, DVD enables esthetically pleasing full-motion video to be recorded over long periods of time (for instance, a whole movie can be recorded). DVD has a structure consisting of two 0.6 mm thin discs which are adhered to each other. Since the thinner the disc, the higher the density at which the information can be recorded, a DVD disc has a greater capacity than a single 1.2 mm thick disc. Since the two thin discs are adhered to each other, there is the potential to achieve double-sided play sometime in the future for even longer duration play. Playback control This is recorded on a Video CD (version 2.0). The scenes or information to be viewed (or listened to) can be selected interactively with the TV monitor by looking at the menu shown on the TV monitor. Subtitles These are the printed lines appearing at the bottom of the screen which translate or transcribe the dialogue. They are recorded on DVD discs. Time number This indicates the play time which has elapsed from the start of a disc or a title. It can be used to find a specific scene quickly. (It may not work with some discs.) Title number These numbers are recorded on DVD discs. When a disc contains two or more movies, these movies are numbered as title 1, title 2, etc. Track number These numbers are assigned to the tracks which are recorded on Video CDs and CDs. They enable specific tracks to be located quickly. Video CD This contains recordings of pictures and sound whose quality is on a par with that of videotape. This player also supports Video CDs with playback control (version 2.0). 46 Specifications Power requirements: Signal system: For Continental Europe, United Kindom and Australia models AC 220–240 V, 50 Hz For other models AC 110–240 V, 50/60 Hz For Continental Europe, United Kingdom and Australia models PAL 625/50, PAL 525/60 For other models NTSC/PAL Weight: 3.6 kC Dimensions: 435 (W)q284 (D)q87.5 (H) mm (excluding protrusions) Operating temperature range: o5 to o35uC Operating humidity range: 5 to 90% (no condensation) Discs played: (1) DVD-VIDEO disc 12 cm single-sided, single-layer 12 cm single-sided, double-layer 12 cm double-sided, double-layer (one layer per side) 8 cm single-sided, single-layer 8 cm single-sided, double-layer 8 cm double-sided, double-layer (one layer per side) (2) Compact disc (CD-DA, VIDEO CD) 12 cm disc 8 cm disc S-video output: Y output level: 1 Vp-p (75°) C output level: 0.300 Vp-p (75°) Output connector: S terminal (1 system) Video output: Output level: 1 Vp-p (75°) Output connector: Pin jack (2 systems) Power consumption: 22 W (approx. 4 W when set to standby mode by the STANDBY/ ON button or the remote control) Audio output: Output level: 2 Vrms (1 kHz, 0 dB) Output connector: Pin jack 5.1ch mixed output: 1 system (2ch) 5.1ch discrete output: 1 system (5.1ch) Audio signal output characteristics: (1) Frequency response: ÁDVD (linear audio): Á2 Hz–22 kHz (48 kHz sampling) Á2 Hz–44 kHz (96 kHz sampling) ÁCD audio: 2 Hz–20 kHz (EIAJ) (2) S/N ratio: ÁCD audio: 115 dB (EIAJ) (3) Dynamic range: ÁDVD (linear audio): 102 dB ÁCD audio: 99 dB (EIAJ) (4) Total harmonic distortion: ÁCD audio: 0.0025% (EIAJ) Digital audio output: Optical digital output: Optical connector Coaxial digital output: pin jack Pickup: Wave length: 655 nm Laser power: CLASS 2 Specifications are subject to change without notice.
