Electrical equipment for controlling an electric motor for the horizontal movement of the pickup member of a disc-record gramophone towards and away from the center of the gramophone turntable comprises position-selector means which, when set to any one of a number of predetermined positions of the pickup member, start the motor and emit a normally constant speed-reference signal controlling the motor speed and, upon receipt of a position-identifying signal from the selected position, cause the motor to be de-energised, thus terminating the motor-driven movement of the pick-up member, individual position-detector means, each so constructed as to perform the dual function of emitting such position-identifying signal and of varying the normally constant reference signal in accordance with the residual distance of the pick-up member from the accurate location of the selected position, thereby varying the motor speed so that the position-detector means work, in conjunction with the motor, as an approach servo.
