Author Topic: Searching for a DFP-R2000 Service Manual Max Biela Film Handler Posts: 89 From: Dortmund, Germany Registered: Sep 2003 posted 10-14-2004 02:34 PM                     Hi! Does anybody here has a Service manual for a DFP-R2000? The manual in the MANUALS-Section is incomplete. I need the electrical alignment-part! Are there any other manuals for the DFP-D2000/DFP-R2000? Thanks Max  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-14-2004 02:40 PM                     I don't know what you're smoking over there Max, but this manual that you are talking about looks complete. Just look at the table of contents and you will see that all of the pages are there to 9-15.  |  IP: Logged Max Biela Film Handler Posts: 89 From: Dortmund, Germany Registered: Sep 2003 posted 10-14-2004 02:50 PM                     ok, maybe I'm just too stupid... but.. where is Section 3 and 4???  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

I don't have a scanner nearby, but maybe I can find the time to dig up the manual and scan it when I am in the office. But that might take a while. In the meantime, it would be best to contact Stefan Scholz who is also registered here complete with contact info. He is the former SDDS field engineer for Germany and has all the stuff and knows everything about the hardware. Or you might try to locate Christoph Roethlein. He used to work for the Ufa-Palast in Duesseldorf and trained with SDDS before they cancelled the whole thing. He might have the material too and would be within short range of where you are.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-14-2004 03:30 PM                     Whoa, looks like I've been smoking some of that I-30 stuff. Some of the pages are for some reason out of order, but that manual was one of mine that was scanned page by page, so I know anything in that physical copy was incorporated into the pdf. Anyone have a R2000 service manual they could send that has any additional pages so I can fix this?  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

I have a complete R2000 service manual (definately has sections 3 [Parts Replacement and Alignment] and Section 4 [Electrical Alignment]). In fact, I think I have most all of the installation and Service manuals for the 2000 series...including the remote and "changeover system installation" plus some software addendums. Note this is a hefty stack of paper and the schematics are foldouts.

I am probably going to start scanning schematics "full size" and it will require printing those pages (typically 4 or more) and then taping them together.  |  IP: Logged Chris Trainor Expert Film Handler Posts: 161 From: Greenville, RI, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-14-2004 09:21 PM                        Ooh, full sized schematics would be great! My eyes have gone sore from trying to read that poor handwriting on the Dolby schematics. heck Brad, I'd even send you some Omaha steaks just as a thank-you for them. --Chris  |  IP: Logged Max Biela Film Handler Posts: 89 From: Dortmund, Germany Registered: Sep 2003 posted 10-14-2004 11:23 PM                     Hi! Thanks @ all Steve, do you have the 2.20 Firmware? Max  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 10-15-2004 08:28 PM                     I can't seem to locate that firmware. I do recall that firmware uploads vis RS-232 were EXTREMELY long. The only upgrades I did were via PC-Cards.

What are the differences between Firmware Ver. 1.10 and 2.20? Max  |  IP: Logged
