GLOSSARY TO TELEVISION TERMS

Auto Picture Booster • A control that will automatically ampli- fy “weak video signals” to a point where they are acceptable for viewing.

Auto Programming • The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the Television “remembers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.

Coaxial Cable • A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.

Closed Caption • Broadcast standard which allows you to read the voice content of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses on- screen "text boxes" to show dialogue and conversations while the TV program is in progress.

Front Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the front of the TV these connectors (phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for easy use with VCRs or cameras.

Menu • An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the Television screen that are made available for user adjustments.

On-screen Displays (OSD) • Refers to the wording or messages generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with spe- cific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Quadra Surf • The feature that allows the programming of four separate Surf lists holding up to 10 channels each.

Remote Sensor Window • A window or opening found on the Television control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are received.

Surf • The action of scanning specific channel in a limited channel list.

Status/Exit • Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to “time out” or automatically dis- appear from the screen).

Twin Lead Wire • The more commonly used name for the two strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and out- door antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs.

Tuner Mode • Designed for first time set up and use where the TV is set for antenna or cable TV signal connections.
