Abstract

A reproducing head is moved by a moving stand along the diameter at a constant speed. At this time, an in-focus detecting circuit waits until the cancellation of the focus control. The time to the cancellation of the focus control is counted by a microprocessor. Based on the time, the microprocessor discriminates the radius of an information recorded disk.
