Abstract
A calibration method for an optical disk drive is presented. The operating parameters of an optical disk drive are initially calibrated when the disk drive is produced or during a repair step. The disk drive is then field calibrated during normal operation. Operating parameters can be field calibrated during power up. Further, operating parameters can be field calibrated when a new optical media is inserted into the optical disk drive. Additionally, operating parameters can be field calibrated during error recovery.
