The driving element is @ robust and unpretentious asynchronous motor, whose homogeneous ‘outer rotor generates a minimum of torque pulses, reflected in seant wow or flutter. To measure the speed, 8 120-teeth high-precision gear is cut into the outside surface of the rotor, They are induc tively counted by a special pick-up head. The speed is then transformed into @ proportional frequency which is anal yzed for momentary value in an electric circuit. Any devi- ation from the nominal, 1600 Hz for 7.5 ips and 800 Hz for 3.75 ips, is detected as to magnitude and sign, and changes the voltage applied to the motor. The actually regulating network ( fig. 5.1049 } consists of a bridge rectifier in series with the supply, whose diagonal Js loaded more or less by @ power transistor. A power ‘wansistor with nearly constant base current doesn’t show 8 genuine resistance characteristic (1 — V }, for it acts as current control element. 23130 v~ (150.

The tachometer signal amplifier amplifies, makes symmetrical and limits the pick-up frequency to supply square wave pulses to the discriminator. D.c. dependent feedback stabilizes the auies: Cent points of the amplifier stages, The discriminator con- sists of an LCseries-resonance circuit of utmost constancy due to type of circuit and components used. Best drift Charactoritice are otsantial to guarantee the required max mum speed variation of 2% | ‘The discriminator frequency can be changed from 1600 Hz to 800 Hz by switching in capacitor C 207. In addition, iode D 201 is polarized in conductive direction, thus Fequiring at the control side but one low current contact, it also decouples the control line ideally. Operating Range of DC-Amplifer ig 5.10-80 24 ‘The series potentiometer P 201 allows detuning the reso rant frequency slightly. This permits calibration of the speed separately. The high speed is set by adjusting prima rily the circuit's inductivity. Fig. 6.10-50 shows the voltage chorseteristie ar 9 function of frequency for the whole discriminator. The operating range of the following ‘dc. amplifier is given for clarification. The discriminator is temperature compensated along with the entire circuitry Fig. 5.10 ~51 shows the typical thermal characteristic of the whole system, measured inside the climatic chamber while motor was running, Fig, 510-51 ‘The signal, delivered from the discriminator, is stripped ‘of acc. components from the tachometer frequency by in tegration ( C210 & C 211 ).

D.c. amplifier O 206 - Q 207, whose operating range is shown in the discriminator characteristic, has an amplification of 40 dB. It brings the signal ta the value heeded for power amplifier Q 208. The pluak inversion stage Q 208 has little amplification. Power stage Q 209 Consists of a transistor which resists those peak voltages that can occur during cut-off and is able to conduct the power loss, generated during operation, onto the heat sink. ‘Some interesting system data 1, Steepness of the discriminator and amplification factor of the following amplifier cause the motor voltage to traverse from 0 Vac to the maximum value 130 Vac within 3 Hz frequency deviation at the 1600 Hz tacho- meter signal frequency.

Changing the supply frequency from 60 to 60 He varies motor speed by less than .05 %. Point 4 shows that the supply can be alternated between 50 and 60 Hz with absolutely no changes in circuitry. The new motor is considerably lighter than synchronous motors were to date. It has neither flywheel mass nor a soft clutch.

( HIRSCHMANN WIST 10) Fig, 7.1-86 The 27 Vee on terminal 7 is for use with silde projectors (load 150 mA maximum). ‘The dummy connector must be inserted for operation with: ‘out the REMOTE CONTROL unit (this dummy connector shorts terminals 1 & 2). 7.2. Operation with a Timing Clock “The timing device is wo be wire into the electric power feed in @ manner which will provide electric current to the REVOX A77 during predetermined intervals only. For ‘operation with a timing clock, the power switch and speed slector remains continuously in the position of the desired ‘ape speed.8. MODIFICATIONS 8.1. Rewind For bad rewind with 18 em (7°) reels : Replace resistor R 125 { 820 Ohm) by resistor 1.2 kOhm, 9 Watt {drive control 1.077.370. 8.2. Switeh Noise The following change can improve the situation where operation of the STOP button out of RECORD and PLAY modes causes clicks Ground connection brn (fig. 3.13 ~18) is unsoldered from the printed side and resoldered to the ground conductor at playback switch $5 ( switch board 1.077.495 ). ‘Another improvement esults fram replacing the diode D 601 ( record relay card) by an RC-network: C = 50 nF / 30 V, R= 100 Ohm / 1/8 W { series connected, observe polarity) aa RFI Interference from strong radio an TV transmitters ean be removed by the following measures Solder 1500 - 5000 pF ceramic capacitors from ground ‘conneetion shield { shielded cable} to chassis ( tubular rivet of connector fastening) at the disturbed inputs ( see ‘example © 164 OUTPUT terminal). Powerful UHF television transmitters may be picked up by Uw playback tread wables Ifa interfering buzz occurs, the following change should be effected in the playback amplifier: ‘Connect @ capacitor of 100 pF (maximum 220 pF) from base to emitter ot U BUS (similar to C BUS on U BUT). 84, Transfer Play Sensitivity Resistor R 316 and R 321 are 10 kOhm in recorders of fot 1. Substitution with 3.3 kOhm resistors ups recording sensitivity (gain 10-48 approx). 85, Replacement of Capstan Motor ‘Starting with Serial Nos. $18600 and G16150 a new type of Capstan-Motor was installed which operates on a 20 V higher supply voltage and therefore requires a modified power-transformer. The voltage appearing at point EB blu (speed contro! board 2.077.725) now measures 150 V. When using an old motor in conjunction with a new transformer, a type 40318 transistor must be used in position Q 209 on the speed control board. a8. Capstan Motor with Sleeve Bearings Modification effective from serial Nr. $ 60483 and G 78003 {or illustration see parkslst page E 10. The capstan shaft extends through the full length of the motor and is supported by two sintered-bronze bearings. The lower bearing is designed to restrict the axial move- wnt of the shaft by means of a plastic coated thrust Alowfriction) washer. All bearings are lubricated for their life and will normaly not require any service. CCapstan shaft and low-frietion washer may be replaced in ‘the field, If a bronze bearing has become defective, the motor must be sent to the nearest factory service-center. (For disas- sembly instructions see section 3.7.) 8.6.1. Removal of Capstan Shaft and low-friction Thrust Washer Removal of capstan shaft and low-friction washer is possible while the motor remains installed in the recorder. — Carefully remove shaft lock A by pulling it sideways with a pair of angled pliers. DANGER! Do not attend to pry the lock loose with a screw-driver ete. Decause it will fly off quite forcefully. Slide off the rotor portion of the capstan motor. = After removal of the tape quide between the play- Ihack head and the capstan shaft, the shaft ean be pulled up and out of the motor. (Take care not to disturb the setting of the adjusting nut on the tape ‘uide.) = To remove the low-triction washer take out the Circlip B with the ald of special pliers. The bearing parts can now be disassembled in the following ‘order: Springwasher E, low-friction washer F and ‘thrust bearing G. The capstan shaft may now be removed by pulling it downwards and out of the motor. = When re-assembling the lower bearing, apply one drop of Isoflex PDP8S oll to the low-frition washer. When handling shaft and bearing, extreme care must be exercised, 30 a8 t0 avoid damaging them and to prevent any dust particles from entering the precision bearings.

Check motor capacitor C 181. Check regulation electronics, test points ( diagram 1.077. 728). If the capstan motor does not start by itself after manual stopping, the regulator pre-amplifier is oscillating. Exchange 206 ( 100 Ohm ) against 330 Ohm. Check capstan bearings, exchange ball bearings against fac- tory - new original ones. Exchange bearings against factory - new original ones. Check gap rotor to pickup ( per 6.2.1). Put @ strip of rubber or equivalent between pick-up and its mounting surface for vibration isol Unpotted pick-ups are to be exchanged for potted ones. Check pick-up separation. Measure pick-up frequency (per 6.2.2). Check regulation electronics, test points.Wow and Fluttar : Inadequate Starting Behavior, Slow Rewind : Push Buttons Don’t Hold End-of-Tape Switch Doosn’t Functio ‘Mechanical casas Periodic wow and flutter whose origin is in @ defective pressure roller or whipping capstan axis can be recoanized by observing the rotating element's rythm ( pressure roller fr capstan axis might be marked with felt tip pen). Pressure roller, see also 4.4.1 1H rythm of wow 1s identical with the rotation of the left hhand reel motor, the origin may be either mechanical or electrical. The mechanical cause may be defective bearing cor misadjusted brake. Overly strong counter torque of left-hand reel motor can bbe cause for wow; check motor voltages, soe table 6.0 46. If wow occurs only at 3.75 ips, it may have its origin in too large a distance of pick-up or in the regulation circuit, (see 62.1) Wow at both speeds may be caused by a defective capacitor in the RC-network R 216/.C 209 in the regulation circuit. Replace capacitor. Reels smaller than 60 mm (2- 3/8") should not be used if at all possible. Optimum behovior can be expected only at nominal line voltage. ‘Check reel motors with loosened brakes for light run (axial play of reel motors.2 to .3 mm (.008 to .0]2").
