sescoscuba Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hi all; Last night I played around with the menu of my RH10. This morning I put in an md; no strike or accidental falls ... and the display is dead. No one can give me an idea what may have happened? What test i can do? Thank you a lot Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 The menu.... or Service Mode? In the latter case there are some default settings it will make if you do "resume clear" (same for most MD units). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sescoscuba Posted May 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hi S, i think menu mode; but, there is a "reset default setting" to use? And if is yes, how? Thank you, S have a nice day Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Can you use the menu on a stick remote such as Rm-MC38EL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sescoscuba Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hi, i ve try, but i don t know how enter in " menu " by remote mc38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hold "display" button for a few seconds. Presumably you also get into the menu when you hold the menu button on the unit down, also. Just you don't see the screen display, right? Oops, the menu option for Contrast does not show up when entering the menu from the remote. If you can figure out how to get into Option (use the remote to enter it and then cancel), the "Contrast" (I suspect this is your problem) is 3 clicks "north" (upwards) of the little wheel on the front of the RH10 (mine is a 910 but so what?). Then FF to increase contrast from blank screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sescoscuba Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hi S. nice idea but in rh 10 there is not the option "contrast" Another nice idea? There is reset button? Best regards sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I think you have to do "resume clear" from service mode. Let me research a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 OK, I've looked at the RH10 service manual and I am not much wiser than before. The only thing that occurs to me is that perhaps putting it into service mode may have a fail-safe action which turns the display on. Maybe some RH10 owner out there has run into this. I know my RH1 went black on one occasion and eventually revived for no obvious reason. Another thing to try is to connect up to USB and see if that wakes it up at all. Good luck!

sescoscuba Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 HiS. i ve try connect to usb; no diffrence. Thanks a lot for your help. Have a nice day Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 No difference from what? You've only told the screen is blank. But I have no idea if that means the whole unit is non-functioning. I originally misread it, perhaps - does ANYTHING happen when you insert a disk? (the usual noises of disk turning) Can you play a disk?

sescoscuba Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Hi S, Only the blank display, recording by sonicstage ok, ok listen, only disply empity. :-( Thanks Sergio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zokuchou Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hi Sergio, Did you ever fix this issue? I have an RH10 with the same issue. Everything works apart from the main OLED screen on the unit. I can put it into service mode (I think) but I can't go any further as from there it's all in Japanese!

sescoscuba Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Ciao, I have not resolved the problem. My RH10 is being repaired. I copy you a method for setting the language in RH10 written by: Ishiyoshi Someone has requested a brief guide as to how one set language on the RH10. The Japanese user manual actually Illustrates the menu structure but if you can not be bothered with the Japanese manual, follow the steps below. Upon entering the menu (by holding the menu button for a few seconds): 1) Select: ³ Æ ¼ ïÀßÄê / Option 2) Select: É ½ ¼ ¨ ¸ À ¸ ì / Language 3) Select: ÆüËÜ ¸ ì or Inglese * Please note: For Those Who can not view the Japanese text, please use Japanese EUC encoding. Have a nice day S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zokuchou Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Thanks. We're you able to get the unit into "test" mode. I've downloaded the service manual from minidisc.org but can't work out how to do it. It talks about a "set key" but doesn't make a lot of sense. Thanks.

sfbp Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Test mode on RH10/910 (I have 910 but presume they are the same) is one of the more reliable for getting into. I cannot test it for reasons I won't go into, but here is the information I remember. Someone should confirm this, and if it's wrong I will immediately delete this. 1. Remove MD disk from unit, close door 2. Turn on hold 3. Holding down "menu/search", press >> >> << << >> << >> << || || (the last two are the pause button). (just in case the above didn't come out I will write another way FF FF RW RW FF RW FF RW Pause Pause) (I think it's ok to turn off hold at this point; I usually forget otherwise and wonder why the machine is locked when I am finished). Remember to remove the power source (charger or gumstick battery) as the way to exit service mode. AS ALWAYS, you're on your own once you enter TEST mode. It's not my fault if you read this and something goes wrong. There are a zillion ways to make your machine useless once you get into TEST mode. Good luck!

zokuchou Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Many thanks for that. Is that info in the service manual or do you need to know an insider for that? Anyway I was able to enter the service mode in both Japanese & US versions and I think it's safe to say there is something physically wrong with the OLED display of the Japanese unit. Thankfully I didn't ruin either unit! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
