Valid Channels: 14-64: UHF channels 65-125: CATV channels 95-99: not valid

Channel Spacing: Skip at least one number between channels. Channels 14 and 16: OK.

Channels 14 and 15: Illegal.

The ChannelPlus 5500 Series are digitally-tuned video modulators that convert any baseband video and audio signal to a user-selected UHF, or Ultraband CATV. An internal quartz crystal reference oscillator and PLL circuitry ensure drift-free performance. The user selects the output frequency (channel) using the "select" button to choose which modulator and the "program" button to enter the number of the desired channel. Any TV connected to the output via coax can receive the signals, when the TV is tuned to the proper channel.

Error indication: If an error has occurred or an incorrect channel is entered, the LED will flash quickly for a second and return to the previous settings.

If two adjacent channels are selected, the unit will accept the entry but will blink the LEDs of channels that are too close. If this happens, re-program one of the channels to move it away from the other.
