4-1-4, Peak Level Indicator Setting
15. Adjust VR106/V.R206 so that the peak level indicator lights
at full intensity when 400 Hz signal at —6 dB (388 mV) (+3 dB
above specified input level) is applied to the deck; and goes ©
off completely when the 400 Hz signal is reduced to —8 dB
(308 mV) (+1 dB above specified input level).
4-1-5. Headphone Output Level Checks
The value should be: -21 dB +2 dB (54.8 mV ~ 86 mV)
NOTE
These checks should be done after setting the specified output

1.
Connect test equipment to the deck as shown in Fig. 30. An
8 ohm non-inductive resistor should be used as the test load
resistor.
2.
Load a TEAC MTT-505 test tape (blank).
3.
Place the deck in the PAUSE mode.
4.
Apply the 400 Hz signal at —9 dB and set the RECORD con-
trols to the specified setting position. (See steps in 4-1-1.)
5.
Measure the level across the test load resistor.
The value should be —21 dB +2 dB (54.8 mV ~ 86 mV).

"4-2. PLAYBACK PERFORMANCE
NOTE
Set the BIAS and EQ switches to position "2", and the DOLBY
NR switch to the OUT position for this playback performance
alignment procedure.
4-2-1. Record/Playback Head Azimuth Adjustments
=
Connect an oscilloscope to the OUTPUT jacks as illustrated
in Fig. 31.
Connect a VTVM to either OUTPUT jack.
Load a TEAC MTT-150 test tape on the deck.
Play Dolby tone in the tape.
Make sure that the phase relationship between the 2 signals
(left channel and right) is within 45° on the oscilloscope.
Install a TEAC MT-T-116L test tape.
Play the 10 kHz/—10 GB signal section of the tape.
8.
Slowly adjust the azimuth adjusting nut for the maximum
indication on the VTVM.
9.
Secure the nut with a drop of tocking paint.
