2 Operational Basics

Th is ch apter provides an overview of th e player’s in tern al operation s — Operatin g

Modes an d th e player’s Active States; RS-232C In terface, an d Fu n ction Switch es.

Before developin g or presen tin g program s on th e CLD-V5000 th e u ser sh ou ld read

th is ch apter an d becom e fam iliar with the operational basics. (See Appen d ix B, C,

and D for details on CLD-V5 0 0 0 In ter fa ce Ca ble Specifica tion s, In ter n a l Pla yer

Con trols and In ter n a l Pla yer Registers.

2.1 Internal Operations

Th e player’s in tern al operatin g processes are classified in to two grou ps: Opera ting

Modes in dicatin g player operation statu s, an d Active Sta tes in dicatin g player

processin g statu s.

2.1.1 Operating Modes

Th e CLD-V5000 h as th e followin g two Opera ting Modes: Norma l Control Mode an d

Tes t Mode. (See Figu re 2 -A on n ext page.)

Th ese m odes are defin ed as follows:

1) Normal Control Mode

Wh en th e player’s power is tu rn ed on , th e player en ters Norma l Control

Mode. In th is m ode, th e player can be con trolled by pressin g bu tton s on th e

fron t pan el, by pressin g bu tton s on th e rem ote con trol u n it, by sen din g

com m an ds via th e Pion eer barcode reader, or by sen din g com m an ds from a

com pu ter via th e RS-232C con n ector.

2) Test Mode

The Test Mode is set in Register C u nder compu ter control. (See page 3-42) It

is u sed for player maintenance and management. This mode is u sed primarily

by Au thorized Service Company (ASC) personnel to determine key part

nu mbers of the player and to service the player. Generally, the player is not

controlled in this mode.

2.1.2 Active States

CLD-V5000 processing is performed within several distinct Active Sta tes. When a

command is execu ted, the Active Sta te changes inside the player. If you consider

player processing as a series of events within the Active Sta tes listed below, it is

easier to u nderstand the effects of variou s commands. The player’s five main Active

Sta tes are:

• Door Open

• Pa rk

• Spin Up

• Ra ndom Access

• Spin Down

The player is in Door Open before the disc is loaded into the disc tray. After the door

is closed, the player enters Pa rk. When a START or PLAY command is inpu t while

the player is in Pa rk, the disc starts rotating and the player enters Spin Up. When

the player is ready to play images, it enters Ra ndom Access. Ra ndom Access is

fu rther divided into Pla y, Still, Sca n, Pa use, Multi-Speed, Skip (Cha pter a nd Tra ck)

and Sea rch.

When a REJ ECT command is received, the player enters Spin Down Mode. Image

playback stops immediately, and disc rotation is gradu ally stopped, then the player

enters Pa rk. Figure 2-B, describes how the active states change within the player.

The au tomatic retu rn of an ÒRÓ following command execu tion is called Automa tic

Sta tus. Automa tic Sta tus is very u sefu l when working with some compu ter

programs, becau se it allows the program to know the appropriate time to send the

3.5 Command Formats

Level III commands on the CLD-V5000 are expressed as ÒCommand MnemonicsÓ, so

they are easy to remember. ÒCommand MnemonicsÓ are also u sed for Level III control

of the CLD-V2800, CLD-V2600, CLD-V2400, LD-V8000, LD-V4400; the LD-V2200,

& LD-V4200 (discontinu ed models), the LC-V330 Au tochanger, as well as for the LD-

V4100 (PAL player); CLD-V2300D and the LD-V4300D (NTSC/ PAL players). Some

commands are preceded by an ÒargumentÓ expressed as an integer. These may

indicate a specific ÒaddressÓ location on the disc or set fu nction parameters.

Command Mnemonic Ñ Each Level III com m an d is expressed as two ASCII

alph abetic ch aracters, represen tin g th e com m an d m n em on ic. Th ere is n o

distin ction between u ppercase letters an d lowercase letters. Exa m p le: PL (Play);

Pl (Play); pl (Play).

A Search command can accept u p to the last frame, chapter or time nu mber encoded

on a LaserDisc. Maximu m nu mber of frames on one side of a LaserVision standard

videodisc is 54,000 (CAV), Chapters, 0-79 (CAV or CLV), time nu mbers 59.59 (CLV).

(One side of CLV disc holds one-hou r of fu ll motion video, time nu mbers can be

encoded that describe running time of a program taking u p several sides of several discs

u p to 9:59.59.) If a frame, chapter or time nu mber larger than the last one encoded on

a LaserDisc is entered, the player will search to the highest nu mber encoded on the disc

and then enter Still (CAV) or Pause Mode (CLV). If a block, index or time nu mber larger

than the last one encoded on a CD is entered, the player will not execu te the search.

an ÒRÓ will be retu rned a fter the Spin-Up, Spin-Down or Sea rch Mode cycle is

finished, due to the playerÕs communication protocol. To check the playerÕs

statu s, send a command to requ est statu s, ?P, ?D, ?T, ?R etc. To set player

address flags send CH, FR, TM, BL, IX. If these comma nds a re sent while the

mode cycles a re in progress, the pla yer will process the command, but wonÕt send

The speed parameter indicates the nu mber of fields moved per

second, and it is specified in range from 1 to 255. It is 60 (with a

range from 45 to 90) for normal play. The initial valu e is 60.

* NOTE: 2SP plays one frame every second (Step 1) on the CLD-V5000, and on the

CLD-V2800/ 2600/ 2400. Similarly, 2SP sets a Step 1 to play one frame every second

on the Pioneer LD-V2200, LD-V4400 and LD-V8000. Early versions of the

CLD-V2400 played 1 frame every three seconds (Step 3) if a 0SP or 1SP were sent to

the player. Later produ ction u nits of the CLD-V2400, however, all play Step 1 if a 0SP,

1SP or 2SP is sent to the player. To achieve compatibility across the player line for a

one frame per second playback speed, send the 2 SP command, followed by MF

(Mu lti-Speed Forward). On the CLD-V5000, STEP 3 is only available u sing the

Remote Control Unit.

Explan ation : The specified address is written in the Mark Frame/ Time/ Block

flag, and the completion statu s “R” is retu rned immediately. When the

stop marker address is reached in Pla y or Multi-Speed, or Step Mode

with a CAV Disc, Still Mode occu rs; with a CLV disc or CD, Pa use Mode

occu rs. In both cases, when the stop marker address is reached, the

stop marker is cleared from the mark register. The stop marker is also

cleared when a step command is issu ed to step throu gh the address

marker on a CAV disc.

Here, the completion statu s “R” is retu rned when the command is

received and the stop marker is set, not when the address marker is

reached, as described in the Play command. Issu e a disc location

requ est command (?F,?C,?T,?R etc.) to determine whether not the stop

marker address has been reached. If a Clear or Reject com m an d is

sen t before th e stop m arker is reach ed, th e stop m arker in th e th e

m ark register is cleared.
