1. Place the optical pick-up level, horizontally. (If the optical
pick-up is not level, the 2-axis device will be weighted and��� 0 V
adjustment cannot be done.)
2. Connect the oscilloscope to TAP805 (TE) and TP520 (VC) on
MAIN board.
3. Set the disc (YEDS-18) and pr^ keess the y.
4. Turn RV502 slightly clockwise (tracking gain drops) and ob-
tain a waveform with a fundamental wave (waveform has large
waves) as in Figure 1.100 track jump
5. Turn RV502 slowly counterclockwise (tracking gain rises) untilwaveformtraverse waveform

6. Set RV502 to the position about 30u counterclockwise form
the position obtained in step 5. If RV502 contact point is more
than 90u counterclockwise from mechanical center, tracking
gain is too high. In this case, readjust from step 4.
7. Press + or = key and observe the 100 track jump wave-
form. Check that no traverse waveform appears for both +
or = directions. (See Figures 3 and 4.) It is acceptable if
the traverse waveform appears only now and then, but if it
appears constantly, raise tracking gain slightly and check step
7 again.
8. Check that there is not abnormal amount of operation noise
(white noise) from the 2-axis device. If there is, tracking gain
is too high, readjust starting with step 4.
