5、t the Iine cord in a convenientwall receptacle of the proper rating. 2. Place a reel of tape on the right hand spindie in such a manner that when the tape is pulled, the reel will turn clockwise. Make sure the pin on the spindle engages a slot of the reel. NOTE: This recorder requires tape with Type
6、 B winding, i.e. the (dull) magnetic coated side faces out on the reel. In case the (dull) side of the tape f aces in onthereel (TypeA wound tape) it can be changed to Type E for use on this recorder by winding the tape with a half twist. The two types are identical ex- cept the way in which they ar
7、e wound on the tape. 3-. Place an empty reel on the left hand spindle (2a). 4. trull about 2 f.e et of tape from the supply reel, drop the tape into the slot between the trim covers (4 and 6). Guide the tape into any one of the three openings at the center of the empty reel. Use a pencil to hold the
8、 tape in place, then turn the reei several turns clockwise to secure the tape to the reel and to remove all slack in the tape. 5. Turn the Cff -On-Tone Control on. This supplies power to the entire recorder. Page 2 To Make a Recording - 1. After the recorder has been properlyprepared for recording,
9、connect the microphone to the ?Mike? jack. 2. Press down on the Record button above the volume control. 3. Turn the r Volume control clockwise u n t i I the incoming signal causes the F-ecord Level Indicator Eye to close on high peaks only. NOTE: Correct recording volume is very important. Too weak
10、a signal, which does not cause the Recording Indicator to close will result in weak playback and high background noise. Too strong a signal, causing the Indicator to ove rlap will result in distortion dur ing playback. 4. Turn the tape mechanism control knob (1) to PIay- Record position. Any sound n
11、ow entering the micro- phone will be recorded on the tape. NOTE: Make sure Skip Forward control is in the Normal position, if not the mechanism will not operate. To fi.ecord Direct From Radio - t.

Better quality recording from a radio set can be obtained by connecting to the output of the second de - tector (usually right across the volume control of the radio set). This kind of connection may be desirable in some cases, because any circuit deficiencies in th
14、e amplifier of the radio will not be included in the re- cording. To Record From Record Plaer- 1. Connect the output leads of the crystal pickup to the Radio Input jack through the connecting cable. 2. If the player has a. magnetic cartridge connect to the output of the preamplifier. To Stop the Rec
15、order - The recorder may be stopped at any time by turning the mechanism control (1) to r Offrt. This stops the movement of the tape and removes the power to the motor. Two Track Recording - 1. The Knight is designed for two channel recordings, therefore, after a reel of tape has been recorded a sec
16、ond track may be recorded on the same reel, which doubles the playing time with no Ioss of frequency response or quality. NOTE: Recordings are made on l/2 the tape width at a time; thereby, resulting in two channel re- cording. 2, This two channel operation is accomplished by re- moving the reels f
17、rom the recorer, turning them over, then placing the f ulI reel of tape on the Feed Reel spindle (18) and the empty reel on the Take Up spindle (24). 3. Thread the tape and proceed with the recording in the same manner as previously described. 4. After this track has been recorded the first track of
18、 recording is ready to be played without rewinding. 5. To Play the first track of recording piace the full reel on the Feed li,eel spindle and the empty reel on the Take Up spindle. Thread the tape making sure the (duII) side of the tape faces the heads, then set the control as described under To Pl
19、ay a R,ecording . Io Rewind The Ta t. To rewind a portion of the tape, or an entire channel of recording for playback, the tape must be rewound to the starting point of the recording. 2. First make sure the recording light just above the Tone control is out. If not, depress the record button above t
20、he Volume control. 3. Turn the mechanism control (1) to Rewindr . Page 3 RadioFans.CN 收音机爱 好者资料库 t t, f To Plav a Recordi 1. Make sure the tape is threaded properly. 2. Be sure the record light over the Tone control is out. 3. Iurn the mechanism control (1) to trIay-iiecord position. 4. Set the volu
21、me and tone controls at desired levels. Fast forward - The control marked Skip Forward-Neutral-Normal on the left side of the upper control panel enables you to skip forward at high speed to any desired section of the tape. This control is to be used only when the tape is moving forward in the plav
22、position. Iurn the con- trol to the lef t through the Neutral position and into the Skip Forward position holding it there until the desired place on the ta-pe is reached. Then release the control by allowing it to spring back into rNeutral. Then, move the control backinto tt Normaltt. To Plav a Rec

24、v a Recording Through an External Speaker - 1. Any external FM speaker having a3.2 ohm voice coil may be plugged into the External Speaker jack output. vVhen an external speaker is plugged in, the internal speaker is automatically disconnected. Using the Knight Recorder as a tr.A. Svstem - 1. Plug t
25、he microphone into the Radio jack. 2. Be sure the recording light above the tone control is out. 3. Keep the microphone as far as possible from the unit to avoid feed back or rhowlr and adjust the tone and volume controls to your requirements. ADJUSTMENTS Motor Power Switch - (See Iigure 4) - 1. The
26、 Off -On-Tone control when turned on supplies power to t h e entire mechanism, however, the motor will not run until the mechanism control knob (1) is turned to either Record-PIay or Rewind trosition, causing the switch (51) to make contact. Therefore the switch contacts should be open when the mech
27、an- ism is in Stop position. ;i:-T,i: if however, the rewind drive pulley (3?) is located in a hanger whose position is adjusted by bending the Stop lug (3?A), see Figure 3, against the swing plate pushing in a manner that will allow a clearance between the drive roller (5?) and the re- wind pulley
28、(3?) in the Stop position. This will also allow the drive roller to engage the drive pulley in therRewind position. In this position, the re- wind drive pulley hanger lug (3?A) is moved away from the stop. The rewind drive pulley (3?) is firmly held against the motor drive pulley (5?) by the torsion
29、 spring (39) that needs no adjustment. Pressure Lever and Arm Adjusting Plate - Set the pressure lever (15), see Figure 2, so that it is perpendicular to the pressure arm (29A) when the control knobis in the Record-Playback position. Also adjust the arm adjusting plate (298) so it will clear the pre
30、ssure arm (29A) bV l/64, ,yhen in this position. Detent Lever (38) - (See Exploded View) - The roller of the detent lever (38) should be adjusted so that it will engage the detent lever (16) at point X, as shown in the exploded view, when the controt is in the Off position. Motor Transfer Lever (41)
31、 - f he motor transfer lever (41) shoul.d be adjusted when the control is in the tOff, position. To adjust the transfer lever (41) loosen its set screws and move the motor plate (51) until the motor drive pulley (5?) is midway between the rewind drive pulley (37) and the flywheel (40), then tighten
32、the scrervs. Head Fressure - The head pressure is adjusted by means of the two screws (14A) in the slotted holes in the head bracket (14). See Figure 2. To make the adjustment, turn the control knob (1) torRecord-Playtr position. Loosen the screws (14A) then adjust the head into the tape guide block
33、 11) until the pressure pads (11A) show a movement of slightly less than l/32, on the reverse side of the tape guide (11). - Head Alignment - The lateral movement of each head is done by moving the heads in the required direction by means of the screws in the slotted holes that hold the heads to the
34、 head bracket (14). The position should be such that there is no hanging up of the tape pressure guide when the control lever is turned to the Off position. Make sure after the heads are adjusted that they are parallel with the tape as it is pulled past the heads. TROUBLES Irregular SpeedrWowrt - 1.
