The allowable tolerances for the rated values for acceptable performance are not given in this standard, but may be derived from the sp

24、ecifications for the related system i.e.appropriate publications, manufacturers specifications, etc. The necessary reference and calibration tapes are either mentioned in the specific IEC publication of the equipment under test or included in IEC1105. This standard deals with special mechanical meas

25、urement techniques for broadcast VTRs. It does not, however, cover the special mechanical measurements of the earlier transverse track video recorder standard (IEC347). For those measurements seeIEC1055. The methods are applicable to acceptance tests, performance comparison and, as far as possible,

26、for routine checks. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC1237.

30、e test signals, measuring devices and types of tapes used together with the results obtained. 4 Test conditions If not otherwise stated, all measurements shall be carried out at the following atmospheric conditions: 5 Measuring equipment 5.1 Mechanical measurements For some measurements, precision m

31、icrometers or dial indicators with14m resolution are sufficient. Instruments with electrical read-out should be preferred. For drum geometry measurements a three-coordinate measuring device with an accuracy below14m is recommended. 5.2 Optical measurements Measurements are made by a high power micro

32、scope equipped with an X-Y-table and a scaled Z-axis. temperature 20 C 1 C; relative humidity 50% 26%; air pressure 86kPa to106kPa; conditioning before testing 24h.EN61237-1:1994 4 BSI 01-2000 For measurements in the4m area the microscope objective shall have a magnification of50 and a numerical ape

33、rture of0,85. The eye-piece, equipped with cross-hairs shall have a magnificationU 10. A video camera/monitor system with electronic cross-hairs gives better reproducible results. The X-Y-table shall have a measuring range of at least100mm 50mm. The measuring accuracy in X-, Y- and Z-axis shall bek1

34、4m. For data acquisition and processing a computer is recommended. 6 Recorder measurements 6.1 Diameter of drum The drum is measured by means of a precision micrometer or a multicoordinate measuring system. Measurements are made at several points of the drum, and these points shall be specified by t

35、he appropriate standard or the manufacturer. 6.2 Projection of video head pole tips 6.2.1 Mechanical measurements Measurements are made by means of a precision dial indicator. Usually either the upper or the lower drum serves as reference, depending on the specifications of the standard or of the VT

36、R manufacturer. The measuring device is specified and often supplied by the VTR manufacturer. Instructions and precautions are given in the users manual of the measuring device. 6.2.2 Optical measurements The scanner is mounted on the microscope table with the rotating axis parallel to one table axi

37、s. Adjust the second table axis so that the optical axis crosses the rotating axis and lock. Focus to the drum surface at the reference area as specified and set the Z-axis measure to zero. Shift the table and rotate the drum till the video head gap under test is at the image center. Focus to the he

38、ad gap and read the tip projection in the Z-axis. 6.3 Gap width of video heads (The dimension of magnetic gap parallel to the plane of the tape and perpendicular to the direction of the relative tape to head movement) Scanner mounting is the same as in6.2.2. Focus on the head gap under test and meas

39、ure the head gap width. For azimuth heads measure the projected width of the gap. 6.4 Coplanarity error of video heads Scanner mounting is the same as in6.2.2, rotate from head to head. The center of the head gap width is the standard measuring point for all play heads and guard band recording heads

40、. In systems with overlap recording (gap width is more than the track pitch), the gap edge of the record or erase head which overlaps the prior recorded track is to be measured. In systems with separate video heads for record, play and erase the video heads are located in different planes. If the vi

41、deo heads of one type (e.g.record) are not in a constant angular distance it yields in an axial displacement. This displacement shall be considered so that all video heads of one type are measured in one plane (e.g.record plane). The coplanarity error is the peak-to-peak deviation in one plane. The

42、result is measured in micrometers, center measure or corner measure shall be stated. 7 Measurements on recorded tape A first method is to record a tape and make the magnetic footprint on tape visible by developing it by means of a suspension of ferro-magnetic powder. Methods for this developing are

43、described in Annex A. Measurement is then made by the microscope. This method is precise and gives absolute values.EN61237-1:1994 BSI 01-2000 5 A second method is to playback a calibration tape. This method is practice-orientated and gives a quick overview. Dynamic effects become visible. The result

44、s are less accurate because the errors of the calibration tape are always implemented and influenced by ageing. Good results are obtained by comparing recordings of the same calibration tape at the same time. 7.1 Tape speed and pitch of the video tracks On video tape recording are tape speed v, trac

45、k pitch J and control pulse distances in a fixed relationship, defined by the recording standard. With one measurement the others can be calculated. For measurement, the control track is to be used. 7.1.1 Tape speed v (first method) The tape speed results from the control track pulse distance divide

46、d by the basic time interval T. For high accuracy it is advisable to use a number of pulses n with a low repetition rate (edit pulse, colour frame pulse) for measurement so the measuring L distance will be in the range of about100mm. Tape speed v=L/(n T) mm/s 7.1.2 Track pitch J (first method) The t

47、rack pitch is the average distance of the track centers measured perpendicular to the recorded tracks. Track pitch J=L sin(F)/(n m)4m Longitudinal track pitch S=L/(n m)4m 7.1.3 Tape speed and pitch of the video tracks (second method) Measurement is made by comparing the tape speed v rin normal recor

48、d mode (not an insert mode) and the tape speed v cby playing back the calibration tape. Measure the capstan tachometer frequency f rin normal record mode and divide by the capstan tachometer frequency f cplaying back the calibration tape. Tape speed v=v c f r /f cmm/s Track pitch J=J c f r /f cmm 7.
