Running the TV-Out Application

The TV Out application has two output formats: PAL and NTSC. You will need a special

cable.

To use the TV-Out application, follow these steps:

1. Plug the RCA Vide o/Audio cable jac k to the J19 Video/A udio jack on the Pe rsonality

board.

2. Connect the RCA end to the TV.

3. Before running the application, you must disable the power-saving features of the

Windows Embedded CE 6.0 image, because the TV Out signal will be dropped if the

power-saving state starts. To disable the backlight savings, tap and hold the stylus for

one or two seconds at the center of the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 desktop.
