2. Playback
the azimuth
adjusted
part (8kHz,
—20dB)
of the
test
tape
(QZZCFM)
and
regulate the angle adjusting screw so that
the outputs of L-CH and R-CH are maximized.
(When the adjusting positions are different
with L-CH and R-CH, find a position where the
Azimuth Screw
Fig. 2
outputs of L-CH and R-CH are balanced, and then make the adjustment.)
. At the same time, draw a lissajous waveform and eliminate phase deflection.
Tape speed adjustment
1. Test equipment connection is shown in Fig. 3.
2. Playback the middle part of the test tape (QZZCWAT).
3. Adjust the VR in the motor so that the output is within the standard.
Standard value: 3000+ 20Hz

. Playback
the playback frequency response part (315Hz,
12.5kHz~63 kHz, —20dB) of the test tape (QZZCFM).
. Chech that the frequency is within the range shown in
Fig. 5 for both L-CH and R-CH.

Playback gain adjustment
1. Test equipment connection is shown in Fig. 4.
2. Playback the playback gain adjusted part (315Hz, OdB) of the test tape (QZZCFM).
3. Adjust VR1, (L-CH) {VR2 (R-CH)} so that the output is within the standard.
Standard value: 0.4+.0.5dB (0.02V)
Bias current adjustment
1. Test equipment connection is shown in Fig. 6.
2. Set the tape selector switch to the normal position.
3. Insert the normal tape.
4. Press the record and pause buttons.
5. Minimize the input level control and adjust VR301 (L-CH) {VR302 (R-CH)}
so that the output between TP1 (L-CH) {TP2 (R-CH)} and ground is within
the standard.
. After that check in the same way as for CrO, and metal tape.

"* »sctlator
(1kHz, —24dB).
. Playback the signal recorded in step 3, and check that the
level of each output frequency is within the range shown in
Fig. 8 in comparison with the reference frequency (1kHz).
. If it is not within the standard range, adjust the bias current by VR301 (L-CH) {VR302 (R-CH)} so that the
frequency level is within the standard.
« Level up in high frequency range
Increase the bias current.
* Level down in high frequency range
Decrease the bias current.
. After that increase the signal recorded on CrO, blank tape (QZZCRX) and metal blank tape (QZZCRZ) up to
12.5kHz and adjust in the same way as mentioned above and check that the frequency level is within the
range shown in Fig. 9.

. Set the tape selector switch to the normal position.
. Set a normal blank tape (QZZCRA) and apply the reference input level signal (1kHz, —24dB) in record pause
mode.
. Adjust the output 0.42V by attenuator and then record.
. Playback the signal recorded in step 3, and check that the output is within the standard.
. If it is not within the standard, adjust VR3 (L-CH) {VR4 (R-CH)} and repeat the step (2), (3) and (4) until the
output is within the standard.
