Time Base = 20msec/div.
At track 00 a photodetector beam is crossed, marking this track. The
stepper motor stops and disc’s table of contents are read and loaded into
memory on the main board. In the Play Mode, the stepper motor immedi-
ately moves the heads into the data area to retrieve the last picture. In the
Still or Movie Modes, the heads remain at track 00 but the photodetector’s
LED is shut off to conserve power. The photodetector is connected to
CN701/pins 5-8.
