Glossary

Cold Mirror

Mirror that absorbs infrared light so that its reflection contains

 

only "cold' light that does not transmit appreciable heat. As a

 

result of this absorption of infrared heat radiation, "cold"

 

mirrors get quite hot.

Composite Video

Means of transmission sending the complete video signal

 

consisting of chrominance, luminance and the sync signals. It

 

is the NTSC standard.

Contrast

The ratio between the dark and light areas of a television

 

picture, setting white at 100%. Used with Brightness

 

adjustment for best picture display.

Convergence

The process of controlling CRT beam deflection to keep the

 

R, G and B beams properly aligned when scanning the raster.

 

Misconvergence shows up as color fringing on picture edges.

 

Convergence adjustment compensates for the physical

 

separation of the R, G and B tubes by aligning their output at

 

a fixed distance from the projector. Convergence adjustments

 

include X,Y-Axis Convergence and Black and White

 

Uniformity.

CRT

The vacuum tube used as a display screen in video terminals

(Cathode Ray Tube)

or television sets. Commonly called the picture tube.

Export Channel

servicing. See Import Channel Data and refer to Appendix 1

 

for more details.

Field

and even lines in another make up one frame.

Frame

One complete TV picture or screen of information. It is

 

composed of two fields and has a total of 525 scanning lines

 

in NTSC transmission.

Ganged

When R and B are ganged to Green, green is set first, then R

 

and B are set to match G. Thereafter, if R or B are visible on

 

screen, any adjustments to G will affect all three colors.

Graphics Adapter

A circuit card in a computer that has the function of

 

converting signals used in a computer into signals that a

 

monitor can use to display a video picture.
