This is useful for locating the faulty part of the unit.
• The following will be displayed :
During recording and stop : Retry cause, number of retries, and number of retry errors.
During playback
: Information such as type of disc played, part played, copyright.
These are displayed in hexadecimal.

Occurring conditions
When track jump (shock) is detected
When ADER was counted more than five times
continuously
When ADIP address is not continuous
When DIN unlock is detected
When not in focus
When ABCD signal level exceeds the specified range
When CLV is unlocked
When access operation is not performed normally
Reading the Display:
Convert the hexadecimal display into binary display. If more than two causes, they will be added.
Example
When 42 is displayed:
Higher bit : 4 = 0100
n
b6
Lower bit : 2 = 0010
n
b1
In this case, the retry cause is combined of “CLV unlock” and “ader5”.
When A2 is displayed:
Higher bit : A = 1010
n
b7+b5
Lower bit : 2 = 0010
n
b1
The retry cause in this case is combined of “access fault”, “IVR rec error”, and “ader5”.
