24、equipment mainly dedicated to recording reproduction of TV signals on magnetic tape on reels or in cassettes. The allowable tolerances for the rated values for acceptable performance are not given in this standard, but may be derived from the specifications for the related system .e. appropriate pub
25、lications, 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 IEC 61105 and IEC 61295, respectively. The methods are applicable to acceptance tests, performance comparison an
26、d, as far as possible, to routine checks. To ensure that the results obtained at a specific time and at a specific place are comparable to other measurements, it is advisable to specify the test signal, measuring devices and types of tapes used together with results obtained. 1.2 Normative reference

34、ng definitions apply: 1.3.1 reference levei: Value of signal level defined in the relevant system IEC publication as remanent magnetic short-circuit flux level on the tape, for example 90f 5 nWb/m r.m.s. for 625-50 systems in IEC 60602. Method of measurement is given in annex A of this standard. 1.3
35、.2 crosstalk attenuation or track separation: In multi-channel equipment, signals in one channel can break through into another channel in an attenuated and distorted form. Particularly when two adjacent tracks are used or two adjacent channels in the same head stack are operated simultaneously in d
36、ifferent modes for example record and reproduction, impairments can arise. To make matters worse, beside these audio tracks additional longitudinal tracks are present on a video tape for example control track and time and control code track. The influence of a signal in one channel to another channe
37、l can be described in terms of crosstalk attenuation or track separation. 1.3.3 polarity of the audio signal: An audio signal is deemed to be positive when it results in an increase in the acoustic pressure on the microphone diaphragm, and thus in the displacement of the diaphragm towards the rear (
38、see IEC 60268-2). 1.3.4 conservation of polarity on magnetic tapes: To obtain an optimal audio reproduction it is necessary to make sure that a backward movement of the microphone diaphragm leads to a forward direction of the loudspeaker diaphragm. This should be preserved either during recording or
39、 tape interchange, detailed explanation is given in IEC 61213. STD-BSI BS EN bL237-4-ENGL 1778 Ip Lb2LibbS 0b83Li27 2b W Page 6 EN 61237-4 :1997 2 Manual and automatic measurements If an automatic measuring device is designed to give reliable results under the special conditions of television tape r
40、ecording/reproducing as for example drop-out, jitter, time-base errors, head switching or partly insufficient head-to-tape contact, a significant improvement in measuring speed, accuracy and comparability of results can be achieved. Therefore preference was given to measuring methods which can be ca
41、rried out by automatic measuring equipment or which are suitable for automatic measuring techniques. Except where a distinction is made in particular clauses between manual and automatic methods of measurement, the measuring procedures given in this standard are valid for both methods. However, alth
42、ough in the case of automatic measurements the procedure is carried out automatically by the test signal analyzer, the various steps are described as if they were performed manually. 3 Procedure of measurement The measurements shall be carried out by measuring the reproduced signal after recording o
43、n the same machine (best case configuration). In certain particular cases, if the multigeneration-performance of a TV signal recording system is measured, the measurements shall be carried out by measuring the reproduced signal after recording on a different machine (worst case configuration). If th
44、e television tape machine under test is equipped with external controls for example tracking control, gain control, etc. these controls shall be set to their preset and mid-position respectively for all measurements. Before testing the overall performance, the reproducing channel shall be measured b
45、y means of a calibration tape (see 1.1). Attention shall be paid to the manufacturers manual and instructions respectively. 4 Environmental conditlonr If not otherwise stated, all measurements shall be carried out at the following atmospheric conditions: temperature (20 f 2) “C; relative humidity ai
46、r pressure conditioning before testing 24 h. (50 f 2) %; 86 kPa to 106 kPa; 5 Measurement on analogue audlo baseband recording using bias 5.1 Reproducing performance using calibration tape An audio calibration tape according to IEC 61295 or recommended by the manufacturer of the equipment under test

If adjustable reproduction-equalization controls are provided, they shall be adjusted to give the closest approximation to the specified reproducing characteristic when reproducing the frequency response section of the specified calibration tape. 5.1.1
49、Head adjustment The 10 kHz tone recorded on the calibration tape is reproduced and the azimuth angle of the audio heads shall be adjusted for minimum phase error. The phase difference expressed in degrees between the particular audio tracks shall be reported. 5.1.2 Reference output lev81 The reference level section (1 kHz) of the calibration tape is reproduced and the obtained output level LIRef expressed in decibels shall be reported. 5.1.3 Maximum programme level The maximum output level at 3 %* harmonic distortion (see 5.1.5) shall be
