7. GENERAL INFORMATION
7.1 DIAGNOSIS
7.1.1 OPERATIONAL DIAGNOSIS PROGRAM
Diagnose5 is application software for operation diagnoses
of Pioneer DVD changers for use with 100, 500, and 700
DVDs. Diagnosable functions are disc movement, the read
function, and the write function. Rewriting of the serial
number, acquisition of internal information, and upgrading
of the firmware are also possible. When "diagnoses of all
drives" is executed, diagnoses of disc movement and the
read function, and acquisition of internal information are
executed, in that order, and the results are recorded in a
log.
Diagnose5 supports one SCSI bus and one changer. It
must be used in an environment where no device other
than a changer and the drives in it is connected on the
SCSI bus.
Supported OS:
Windows NT4.0/95/98/Me/2000
Note:
The ATAPI drive is not supported.

2. Outline
4. How to use
5. Diagnosis (READ)
Diagnose5 is composed of one executable file
(Diagnose5.exe) and two dll files (chgpio32.dll and
cdiagp32.dll). With Windows NT, it is necessary to install
the ASPI manager (wnaspi32.dll) beforehand. For
installation, copy an executable file (version 2.900 or later)
and the dll file in the same folder on the PC.
Note:
Set "automatic notification of insertion" for the drive to OFF.
If it is set to ON, the program may not operate properly. If a
drive with this setting set to ON is connected, a message
asking whether to change this setting to OFF is displayed
when Diagnose5 is started up. In such a case, select "Yes"
then restart your PC.
