    AC-514 for TYPE  II, 
AC-225 for TYPE I
Measuring terminal: 
Both erase head ter
minals

Load the test tape (AC-514 for TYPE II, 
AC-225 for TYPE I) into the tape 
playback mechanism and preset it to the 
record-pause mode. 
After setting it to the recording mode, 
send 1 M  in series to the erase head and 
measure the erasing current from both 
erase head terminals. 

TYPE II: 110 
mA
TYPE I: 75 mA

Standard frequencies:
 1 kHz and 10 kHz 
(REF: -20 dB)
Test tape: TYPE II:
 AC-514
Measuring input 
terminal: OSC IN

Load the test tape (AC-514 for TYPE II, 
AC-225 for TYPE I) into the tape 
playback mechanism and preset it to the 
record-pause mode. 
Input the standard value of -20 dB and 
the standard frequencies of 1 kHz and 10 
kHz repeatedly to the microphone input  
from the transmitter in the recording 
mode. Adjust VR31 for Lch and VR32 for 
Rch so that the difference in level 
between 10 kHz and 1 kHz is -1 dB    5 
dB. 
Repeat the above for TYPE I and confirm 
that the difference in level is -XdB    dB. 

Difference in 
output 
between 1 kHz 
and 10 kHz: -1 
dB    5 dB

Lch: VR31
Rch: VR32

Sensitivity of

of 
microphone 
mixing 

Microphone input
 terminal: 1 kHz, -65 dB
Test tape: VT-724

Based on the reproduction level of the 
VT-724 test tape, confirm that the 
microphone level is 0 dBs    3 dB when a 
1 kHz, 65 dBs signal is input.
(The mixing volume and sound volume 
should be at maximum.)

0 dBs    3 dB
