Purpose: To obtain compatibility with the other VCR(VCP) Models.
5-2. Confirm that the tape passes smoothly
between the Take-up Guide and Pinch
Roller(using a mirror or the naked eye).
1) After completing Step 5-1.(Preliminary Adjustment), check
that the tape passes around the Take-up Guide and Pinch
Roller without folding or curling at the top or bottom.
(1) If folding or curling is observed at the bottom of the
Take-up Guide then slowly turn the Tilt Adjustment
Screw(C) in the clockwise direction.
(2) If folding or curling is observed at the top of it then
slowly turn the Tilt Adjustment Screw(C) in the
counterclockwise direction.
NOTE:
Check the RF envelope after adjusting the A/C Head, if the
RF waveform differs from Fig. C-5-4, performs Precise
Adjustment to flat the RF waveform.
Test Equipment/ Fixture
• Oscilloscope
• Alignment Tape(SP)
• Screw ) Type 5mm
Connection Point
• Audio output jack
Test Conditions
(Mechanism Condition)
• Play an Alignment Tape
1kHz, 7kHz Sections
Adjustment Point
• Azimuth Adjustment Screw(A)
• Height Adjustment Screw(B)
1) Connect the probe of the oscilloscope to Audio Output
Jack.
2) Alternately adjust the Azimuth Adjustment Screw(A) and
the Tilt Adjustment Screw(C) for maximum output of the
1kHz and 7kHz segments, while maintaining the flattest
envelope differential between the two frequencies.

Adjustment Procedure
1) Release the Automatic Tracking to run long enough for
tracking to complete it’s cycle.
2) Loosen the Fixed Mounting Screw and move the Base
Assembly A/C Head in the direction as shown in the dia-
gram to find the center of the peak that allows for the max-
imum waveform envelope.
This method should allow the 31
µ
m Head to be centrally
located over the 58
µ
m tape track.
3) Tighten the Base Assembly A/C Head mounting Screw.
