The tape transport mechanism should correctly be aligned,
or the VCR interchangeability will be lost. T h e height of
Tape-guide-poles can be adjusted observing R F signal am
plitude on an oscilloscope.
If the distance between D r u m and CTL-head of the play
er is not equal to t h a t of the recorder, the reproduced V-
sync will be out of phase from the C T L signal, and servo
control will become difficult. A varialble resistor,
Tracking-VR, has been employed for compensating the
phase error caused by the distance error.
