4-1. MONITOR PERFORMANCE
NOTE
Place DOLBY
NR switch to OUT position for this monitor
circuit alignment procedure.
4-1-1. Specified Input Level Setting
1.
Connect an AF oscillator to the LINE IN jacks, through an
attenuator.
2. Connect
a VTVM_
between
the T.P. (test points) for
VR102/VR202
and ground on the REC/PB amplifier PC
board.
Load a TEAC MTT-505 test tape (blank) on the deck.
Adjust for -25dB on VTVM
(Specified RECORD control setting}
VTVM
—25dB(43.5mv)
OSCILLATOR
Place the deck in the PAUSE mode.
Apply a 400 Hz signal/—9 dB (274 mV) to the LINE IN jacks.
Turn the RECORD controls to obtain the reading of —25 dB
(43.5 mV) on the VTVM. Note the position of the RECORD
control as this is the specified
RECORD
control setting
referred to in subsequent procedures.
7. Connect the VTVM between the Dolby T.P. (test points) and
the ground on the REC/PB amplifier PC board.
8. Adjust VR102/VR202 to obtain 580 mV (2.5 dB).

4-1-2. Minimum Input Level Checks
9. Turn the RECORD controls fully clockwise.
10.
Apply a 400 Hz test tone at minimum input level as listed
below to each input jack.
11. Check for (the specified value of) 580 mV (-2.5 dB) at the
Dolby test points using the VTVM.
