 +==== MD ====
 +
 +  * {{:resources:sony-minidisc-magneto_optical_basics_training_manual_course_mo-1.pdf |Sony MiniDisc Magneto Optical Basics - Training Manual, Course MO-1}}
 +  * {{:resources:the_rewritable_minidisc_system.pdf |The Rewritable MiniDisc System, Proceedings of the IEEE, USA, vol. 82 no. 10 pp. 1492-1600, Oct 1994}}
 +  * {{:resources:atrac_adaptive_transform_acoustic_coding_for_minidisc.pdf |ATRAC: Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding for MiniDisc, 93rd Audio Engineering Society Convention in San Fransisco, 1992 October 1-4}}

 +==== Control-A1 ====

 +  * {{ :resources:www.brian-patti.com_s-link_sonyvt4.pdf |Reverse Engineered Control-A1 Codes (Brian Patti)}}

 +  * {{:resources:mds-e11_mds-e12_mds-e52_-_protocol_addendum.pdf |RS232C Interface Manual - Addendum}}
 +
 +==== Machine Data ====
 +
 +  * {{:resources:sony_md_part_data.pdf |Sony MiniDisc MDM/OPU/ATRAC/ADC/DAC data}}
 +  * {{:resources:retry_cause_display_mode.docx |Retry Cause Display Mode - please contribute machine ID codes!}}
 +
 +==== Laser/OP ====
 +
 +  * {{:resources:kms260e_lpm_spec.pdf |KMS-260E laser power settings cf KMS-260A/KMS-260B}}
 +  * Combo decks (e.g. MXD-D4) use laser KMS-262 (rather than KMS-260) to support heating the disc faster (9mW vs 7mW) in high-speed dubbing modes. With correct adjustment using an LPM, KMS-262 can //probably// be used where KMS-260 was originally (but not KMS-260 where KMS-262 is needed).
