INSTRUMENTS REQUIRED GENERAL PREPARATION
1. Signal Generator 1. Check source voltage, DC or AC according to specificaions
2. FM Signal Generator 2. Set function switch to band being aligned
3. FM/AM IF Sweep Generator (10.7 MHz for FM) 3. Signal input should be kept as low as possible to avoid AGC and AFC function
4. VTVM 4. Standard modulation : AM 1 KHz 30% mod
5. Oscilloscope FM 1 KHz 22.5 KHz dev
6. Frequency counter
7. Regulated DC power supply

2 Repeat step 1 for max. output
FM IF ALIGNMENT
This model requires no FM IF alignment as the IF is fixed by ceramic filter and discriminator CF502 or CF503 & CF505. Please take note that correct type and same color dot of ceramic filter is used
in servicing, diff color dot of ceramic filter may cause worse IF 'S' curve characteristic and distortion.
Connect IF genescope output terminal to TP3 & TP4 (GND) in series with a 1000Pf capacitor, connect scope input terminal to TP1 & TP2 (GND), then the IF characteristic curve can be observed.

FM RF ALIGNMENT
ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE FOR CD SECTION
1 ) Check source voltage, DC or AC according to specifications . 2 ) Set function switch to Tape being aligned .
A ) MEASURING INSTRUMENTS REQUIRED FOR TAPE B ) EQUIPMENTS REQUESTED FOR AC BIAS FREQUENCY / CURRENT ADJUSTMENT :
SPEED AND HEAD AZIMUTH ADJUSTMENT.
( 1 ) TAPE SPEED ADJUST
MTT-111 (3000 Hz) TEST °
AC BIAS FREQUENCY ALIGNMENT :
Note :The test unit should be keep in recording mode and added two resistors Ra & Rb as shown in the
Fig. 2 before alignment. be sure to delete the both resistors Ra & Rb after alignment completed.
