Photomagnetic recording/reproduction apparatus

摘要

A position detecting switch SW1 detects insertion of a disk 1 into a movable holder 3. A reproducing position detecting switch SW2 detects a reproducing position RP of the disk 1. A recording position detecting switch SW3 detects a recording position RC of the disk 1. A mechanism controller 28 controls a series of operations of a driving mechanism on the basis of detection signals delivered from the detecting switches SW1 to SW3. The mechanism controller 28 moves the movable holder 3 from the recording position RC to the reproducing position RP by further moving the movable holder 3 by a predetermined distance in a direction of ejection beyond the reproducing position RP and then moving the movable holder 3 back to the reproducing position RP. The movement is detected by the reproducing position detecting switch SW2 to thereby detect the reproducing position RP of the disk 1.
