GLOSSARY OF TELEVISION TERMS

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.

BNC Connector - A twist-lock connector for various types of RG- type coaxial cables. Also referred to as Bayonet Nut Coupler.

Display - An on screen message or graphics that helps the user operate and adjust his Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).

Direct 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.

Event - Defines operation of the TV control system. Each event can be programmed for the day(s) of the week; turn ON time; turn OFF time; and channel.

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 gen- erated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

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

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

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

Second Audio Program (SAP) - Another or additional audio channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast stan- dard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program material.

Setup Code - Special sequence of button presses used to access the Setup Menu when the Setup Remote is not available.

Setup Remote - Remote control transmitter used by installer to set up commercial functions and modes of operation.

Status - Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is cur- rently 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 disappear from the screen).

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