Title: Rowe CD 100 Storm
Post by: Randy0777 on December 03, 2016, 10:03:25 PM
Need some help replacing optics...
Picked up a wall mount juke, hooked up Bose 301's...Not loud enough  :hissyfit: Then bought a pair of Studio Monitor 65 to add. After 3 weeks of figuring out how to hook all of them up to keep within my OHM spec, found the answer  :Crazy: The SM's  you have to break in over a few days of playing...Which equaled a few weeks.

Now, the speakers were "broken in", and I finally got to see if the AMP could handle Rock like it was meant to be heard  :dancing_2: I played about ten songs , then it would pick up a disc, spin for a sec, stop , re-spin, then place back in the cradle. It did this for the rest of the selections I had playing. Turned it off,and started reading :banghead:

I cleaned all of the disc when I installed it. Tried cleaning the optics, no luck. Read that the optics is bad. Ordered a new optic, still the same. Watched the cd player after the new optic... No light, the sled does not move, only thing is the optic will pulse up and down during the 1 sec that the disc would spin. The cd player is a CD Pro 2.

I have no clue about jukeboxes..

You must initialize all your discs for the Pro 2 to read them.  There is a program sequence to do this using your keys.  I am away for the day but can get you the sequence sometime tomorrow.  It takes awhile to accomplish but your cds will not play until they are initialized.

Just an update on the initialization of the cds on the Pro2
1.  Go to the "service" mode by sliding the service switch.
2.  Push 30 on the selector panel on the front door.
3.  Push the "Popular" button to enter your selection.
4. Take jukebox out of "service" an your mechanism should pick up one cd at a time and "learn" them into the computer.
Note:  Just a reminder to push the "Popular" button after you enter 30, I have sometimes forgotten that and wound up having to do everything all over again.
Hope this helps, it is at least worth a try.

sure sounds like a bad player then , shame good players are hard to  find or  very high priced  for new  , does your board  have extra plug on end ? they are the  new  boards and won't work  with those replacement eyes
