2) Recording format using organic dye material (DVD-R / DVD+R) The format that records data through the creation of recorded marks by changing the organic dye mate- rial with a laser beam. • Disc structure • Recording principles [ Recording ] Recording is done by changing the organic dye layer and the substrate with a laser. when a strong laser is applied to a disc, the temperature of the organic dye material goes up, the dye is decomposed and the substrate changes at the same time.
Page 100
3) Recording format using phase-change recording material (DVD-RW / DVD+RW) Data is recorded by changing the recording layer from the amorphous status to the crystalline status, and played back by reading the difference of the reflection coefficient. Amorphous: Non-crystalline. • Disc structure • Recording principles [ Recording ] when a high-power laser is applied to the recording material, it melts and then becomes amorphous with a low reflection coefficient when it quickly cools off.
Page 101
To make recordings, it is necessary to modulate the write pulse, which is called “write Strategy”. There can be many types in write Strategy. Typically write Strategy for DVD R has NMP(Non Multi-Pulse) type and MP(Multi-Pulse) type. In NMP type each single mark is created by subsequent separated short pulses.

1-5. Confirm Optical Power Setting Parameter LD Test result is ok, but Loader performance is bad. 1. Check ALPC parameter value 1) Press button to open “Results Display” dialog. ALPC Para ALPC Para 2) Press button. ALPC Para - we can see optical power setting value. ALPC Para - write optical Power Setting value to paper.
1-6. Attachment. Optical Power Measurement Optical Power measurement is to adjust LD power from Pick-up To measure optical power, LD status is on. Other light affects optical power. Avoid other light to measure exact power Generally headlight power is about 50µw, Sun power is about 100mw. Optical Power measurement method 1.
2. AUTOMATIC OPTICAL POWER SETTING (SET-BASED) The RS-06A mounted models are supported by the B/END to automatically execute the optical power setting of the loader at the set condition with the following steps. 1. Use the remote controller to select the mode as Lock position at the Setup menu. 2. Use the remote controller to enter 5 -> 7 -> 2 -> 0 into the set. when they are normally entered, the GUI is displayed as shown at Fig.
