• Pitch control
(turntable speed fine adjustment).
The turntable speed of this unit can be fine-adjusted about
± 6 % range. With the pitch control knob at "0". It is set to
normal speed ( 3 3 - 1 / 3 or 4 5 rpm), and the strobe marks
appear to be still.
Nota:
The number ( 1 - 6 ) prtnted on the pitch contro* knob shows
ma speed variation (%) approximately,
direction
The speed of the turntable platter wiU increase Turn the
knob in this direction rf the strobe dots seem to be "falling
back"
i
e seem to be moving counterclockwise. When the
dots appear to be stationary, turntable speed is accurate,
"-'•direction
The spaed of tha turntable platter will decrease. Turn the
knob in this direction if the dots seem to be "running
ahead" i.e. seem to be moving clockwise, until they appear
stationary.
Note:
For the strobe-iiUmmahon ol mis unit, a quartz controlied
precise strooe-IUuminatOf with red LEO illumination ts
employed It is essential to carry out turntable speed fine
adjustment under the illumination of mis LED light emission.
Since synchronization Is not possible with fluorescent
lamps, use of a fluorescent lamp makes the strobe markings
look as though they are flowing. Likewise adjustment cannot
be made with an incandescent lamp. (See Fig. 11 )
