3.The voltage being indicated on the schematic diagram is measured in "Standard-Playback" mode when there is no specify mode is mentioned. Model No. SDR-S7P SDR-S7EP 4.Although the voltage and waveform available on here is measured with standard frame, it may be differ from actual measurement due to modification of circuit and so on.
S2. Voltage Chart Note) Indicated voltage values are the standard values for the unit measured by the DC electronic circuit tester (high-impedance) with the chassis taken as standard. Therefore, there may exist some errors in the voltage values, depending on the internal impedance of the DC circuit tester. S2.1.
S6. Replacement Parts List Note: 1.* Be sure to make your orders of replacement parts according to this list. 2. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE Components identified with the mark have the special characteristics for safety. When replacing any of these components, use only the same type. 3.
