Introduction 1 Scope This standard applies to recording and reproducing equipment for sound on magnetic tape (reel-to-reel, cassette and cartridge) for both professional and domestic applications, and will be referred to as “equipment” throughout this

35、standard. This standard does not apply to special purpose equipment such as high speed duplicators, artificial reverberation recorders or dictation machines not employing the reel-to-reel, cassette or cartridge principle. This standard excludes all aspects of safety, which are to be found in IEC Pub

36、lication65, Safety Requirements for Mains Operated Electronic and Related Apparatus for Household and Similar General Use. It also excludes magnetic tape properties, which are to be found in IEC Publications94-4 and94-5. 2 Object The object of this standard is to list and define parameters affecting

37、 the performance of recording and reproducing equipment for sound on magnetic tape, and to establish conditions and agreed methods of measurement of these parameters. Section 2. General notes on measurements 3 Information to be supplied by manufacturer of equipment The information required is listed

38、 in this section. It falls into two distinct categories: mandatory information to be clearly shown on the equipment, indicated by an “A” on the right-hand side of the page; optional information to be given separately, e.g.in an instruction manual relating to and supplied with the equipment. It is es

39、sential that mandatory information outside the scope of this standard (e.g.aspects of safety IEC Publication65) shall also be given in the correct location. 4 Identification 5 Technical description All parameters in this clause are subject to verification only. For the purpose of this clause, an “ad

40、justable” control shall be deemed to be one that is readily accessible to the user when the equipment is in its intended use. Its adjustment shall necessitate neither relocation of the equipment nor the dismantling of any of its parts. 6 Mechanical characteristics 6.1 Space and support requirements

For single-speed cassette and cartridge equipment, the speed need not be marked on the

43、 equipment but shall be stated in the instruction manual. Adjustable tape speed on: Record/reproduce. Fast forward. Rewind. Adjustable tape tension: Between capstans. On supply reel. On take-up reel. Number of motors. Type of capstan (e.g.single or multiple capstan). Reversible tape drive (record/re

48、ustable balance. Adjustable equalization. Type of noise reduction system. Automatic gain control. Adjustable bias current. 8 Rated conditions For convenience in specifying how tape recorders are to be set up for measurement or verification, it is necessary to define certain rated conditions under wh

49、ich measurements shall be made. Furthermore, some of these rated conditions must be related to a specified calibration or reference tape. The following ratings are basic to the methods of measurement specified in this standard: Rated environmental conditions. Rated power supply. Rated recording level. Rated load impedance. Rated source impedance. Rated input electromotive force (e.m.f.). Rated output voltage. Rated bias setting. To obtain the correct conditions for measurement, the above-mentioned ratings shall be taken from the manufactu
