(6) Then play back the alignment tape (A2).
(7) Press the channel buttons (+, –) simultaneously to enter
the manual tracking mode. This also brings tracking to
the center (centre).
(8) Perform the tracking operation and make sure that the
V.PB FM waveform is at its maximum.
(9) If it is not at maximum, loosen the screws (4) and (5),
and turn the A/C head positioning tool to bring the A/C
head to a position, around where the waveform reaches
its maximum for the first time. Then tighten the screws
(4) and (5).
(1) Play back the alignment tape (A).
(2) Apply the external trigger signal to D.FF (E), to observe
the V.PB FM waveform at the measuring point (D).
(3) Confirm that the automatic tracking operation is com-
pleted.
(4) Set the VCR to the Auto adjust mode by transmitting the
code (F) twice from the Jig RCU. When the VCR enters
the stop mode, the adjustment is completed.
(5) If the VCR enters the eject mode, perform adjustment
for the audio control head phase (X-value) again.
