GLOSSARY

Auto Programming • The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this format 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 con- tent of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to help the hearing impaired this feature uses on-screen "text boxes" to show dialogue and conversa- tions while the TV program is in progress.

Side Audio/Video Inputs • Located on the side 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.

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

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

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

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).

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

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

Tuner Mode • Feature control settings made by the TV. Designed for first time set up and use. Settings for signal connec- tions (antenna or cable TV), plus channel program memory are held in the TV's memory (even if the set is unplugged and moved to a new location.)
