With zero signal into the bridge bring the ground level

recorder to zero by adjusting R=-3 (See Fig. 16)

Calibration
The calibration of the telepulse coding unit should be done in

the following order: 1) bridge, 2) converter, 3) comparator.

Figure

16 shows the positions of the controls.

Bridge:
1.

With zero input, the bridge is balanced (R-3) to produce
a zero reading on the recorder.

2.

A negative one volt signal is applied to the input and

the sensitivity control (R=-5) adjusted for full scele on
the recorders
3.

The marker push button is closed and the recorder
brought to full scale by adjusting R-9.

lh.

The duration of the marker is set by adjusting timer
T-1,

3.6.2

The minimum period should be five seconds.

Converter:
1.

With zero signal input, the bias of V=3 is adjusted to
-1.45 volts.

The amplitude of the converter output

pulses, appearing across R-10, should be approximately

16 volta.
2.

With 1.4 volts applied to the input of V-3, the amplitude
of the pulses across R-10 should be approximately 30 volts.

Comparator:

1.

Resistor 2-5 in the comparator unit is adjusted so

that the univibrator (V~-13) is triggered reliably by
ten volt input pulses.
