GLOSSARY TO TELEVISION TERMS

Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV these connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection options.

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.

Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user operate and adjust TV feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).

Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds an operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable Converter). Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and send commands to the other product.

LED * Light Emitting Diode or indicator.

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

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard that allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.

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

Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are shown on the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP picture is supplied by a VCR (or other tuner/video playback source). The PIP picture can also be moved and swapped with the TV's main screen picture.

Pre-Amplifier * The control center of a hi-fi system. Not only amplifies source inputs, but also allows for source selection, volume, tone, balance and all other controls that affect the sound.

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

PTV * Projection Television (Rear and/or Front projection design systems are available.)

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

RF * Radio Frequency or modulated signal design used as the carrier for television broadcasts.

Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast standard. A monaural soundtrack included within the recorded or video signal (usually containing a second language translation for the displayed programming.)

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

Subwoofer * A speaker designed for audio playback of only the lowest-frequency notes (under 100 Hz.)

S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder, Laser Disc player, etc. Provides improved picture resolution, sharpness, and clarity.

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 additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs.

Variable Audio Output * An adjustable audio output which allows for volume variations at the source.
