TANDBERG - TR 220 Service Manual CONTENTSCHANGING AND CLEANING SWITCHES To ensure a satisfactory switching action, clean and Iubricate the switch contacts with a good cleaning agent applied on a fine brush. We recommend “Tandberg Kliberfett” or “Wablerfett” which can be supplied from our service department. DISMANTLING Petrick switch - interlocked Switeh arm Pull the locking plate slightly forward and move it across in the direction of the arrow (see diagram) s0 that it clears the locking tag. When the locking is moved in the direction of the arrow, all the switch arms, interlocked and independent, will spring out at the same time, Therefore hold your hand int {front to catch these parts, When you are reassembling, hold all the switch ‘arms in at the same time (with a plate) as the locking tag is pushed into its locking position. NOTE! It pays to set one end of the locking plate up on the edge of the locking tag before you hold the switch arms in, Switch housing. ‘Unsolder the switch housing from the solder side of the board and any leads on the side of the switch, Clamp tabs A together. The switch housing will now be fre. Interlock return spring To gain access to the interlock return spring you must first free the switch housing ar described above. Interlock retuen spring are not always fitted to switch houses of the interlocking type. We also recommend pure alcohol or methylated spirit for cleaning followed by a light application (of vaseline for lubrication. ~ NOTE! Do not touch the contaets with your fingers because this can lead to corrosion, Avoid using cleaning agents that could attack the ‘metal surfaces. NOTE! We have developed our own cleaning/ lubricating agent, “Tandberg Contact Spray" in aerosols, and we can recommend it for all types of contacts. The aerosols can be supplied through our district offices and subsidiary ¢ ‘companies, ‘Tandbera Contact Spray Petrick switch - independent ‘Switch arm Dismantle in the same way as described above in the paragraph “Switch arm”. Switch housing To remove the locking plate, return spring, an locking pin, clamp tabs A together. Further di rmantling can be achieved by following the de- scription given above in the paragraph ‘Switch housing”. NOTE! Take care with the return spring when dismantling and re-assembling «0 that it docs not loose its tension. LOCKING FIM —— 97 Sen HOUSING Free-standing Petrick switch - push button switch with independent release Switeh arm Pall the front locking plate forward at one end (the Jeftend seen from the front) so that it Hes on the edge of the switch carrier. Push the back locking plate inthe direction of the arrow (see drawing) and at the same time ‘make sure that the switch arm does not spring out. Switch housing Dismantle as described in the “Switch housing” paragraph for the independent and interlocked switches. 2 ~ae DISMANTLING CABINET Remove the 2 screws holding each side panel using an Allen (Unbrako) key. Lift up the top panel at the back edge and pull it out backwards. —_—__¥ SCALE GLASS Pull the scale glass out sideways ‘There are 3 loose pieces of plastic tubing on the top ‘edge of the glass, one at each end and one in the ‘middle. When re-assembling, replace the 2 end pieces (of tubing after the scale glass has been put back. **0n later models the outer plastic mbing pieces have been replaced with special end pieces. On these models the scale glass is slightly shorter. ‘The plastic piece of tubing in the middle has been retained. ‘THE METERS “Remove the bracket ret meter out backwards. ** The lenses in front of the meters are fitted loose against the scale plate. screw. Pull the te TE scat ] ‘First pull out the STEREO lamp which is located in a hole in the scale (at the back). Pall the scale out sideways. ¥ (CHANGING AND CLEANING SWITCHES See previous page. "Release the drive cord pulley unit (2 screws). Remove the old cord. ‘Tum the pulley to its end position, anti-clockwise seen fro: the front. Fix the loop on the cord to the lug inside the pulley as shown in the figure. Take the cord end A, with t spring, and thread it through the hole at the top edge of th pulley’and lay the cord hal a turn anti-clockwise in the back channel and fix it with tape. Lay the cord end B as shown in the figure one and a half turns clockwise in the front channel and fix it with tape. Screw the pulley unit back into place. Lay the rest of the cord as shown in the figure, ** The end position of the scale cursor can be obtained when, the pulley isin its extreme anti-clockwise position.

Oscilloscope (sensitivity § mV/em) — Frequency counter Valvevolemeter, 20 kHz LP filter or a selective valvevoltmeter. Complete alignment: = Decoder oxcillator: 19 kHz (see section 1), ~ Ghannel separation (see section 2) = Signal level for mono/stereo switch-over (see section 3}. — Definition: Pilot signal 19 kite # 2112 1. Decoder Oscillator: 19 kHz Apply 1 mV to the aerial input from the FM sig. {enerator, unmodulated. No 19 kH2. Adjust R305 until you read 19 kHz on the frequency counter connected to M310 (board A2). Alternative without a frequency counter: Apply 1 mV to the aerial input from the FM stereo sig. generator, modulation: 10% pilot signal. Turn R305 slowly from its end position to a position slightly past the point where the stereo lamp comes on. Finely adjust R305 to a position where the pot. must be turned equal amounts Doth directions for the stereo lamp to go out. 2. Channel separation: Apply 1 mV from the FM sterco sig. generator to the aerial input, modulation: 10% pilot signal. Modulate the right channel 90% with 1 kil. Connect the oscilloscope to the TAPE OUT socket for the left channel. ‘Adjust R335 for minimum picture height on the oscilloscope. Modulate the left channel 90% with kllz and connect the oscilloscope to the TAPE OUT socket for the right channel. Again adjust R335 for minimum picture height. The ampli tude of the curve must be the same for both channels. Alternative without a stereo sig. generator: Adjust R335 for minimum signal from the right (or left) loudspeaker when the receiver is tuned {in toa test transmission from an FM transmitter which is modulated only with a pilot signal and a signal in the left (or right) channel 3. 19 kl filter: Apply 1 mV to the aerial input from the FM stereo tig. generator 10% modulated with a pilot signal ‘Adjust R327 (R828) alternately to obtain min. 19 kez signal from the TAPE OUT socket for the left (right) channel, measured selectively. (Or with a 20 kilz LP filter to remove the residual 38 Elz voltage). 4A. Signal level for mono/stereo switch-over: Apply 10 to the 75 ohm aerial input from the FM stereo sig. generator 10% modulated with a pilot signal ‘Turn R223 to its end position (anti-clockwise seen from the component side) and then turn slowly clockwise until the stereo lamp comes on. Alternative without a stereo sig. generator: A UUsean ordinary FM sg. generator and apply 10.V rodulated with 19 kil deviation 7.5 kil (10%) {o the 75 ohm serial input.
