Function: TAPE
Procedure:
1. Playback WS-48A (tape center) in the FWD state.
2. Adjsut the volume in CAPSTAN/REEL motor (M201) so that
the frequency counter reading becomes 3,000 Hz.
Specified Value: 2,985 to 3,015 Hz
3. Confirm that the frequency at the beginning and that at the
end of tape winding are between 2,955 to 3,045 Hz.
