Glossary

To connect to a hi-fi system, use an audio connection cable and connect the “L” and “R” outputs on theTV set to the “AUDIO IN” “L” and “R” input on your hi-fi amplifier.

N.B.: sound output corresponds either to the sound from the television tuner or to the sound from the equipment connected to EXT1 or EXT3, but never to the sound from the equipment connected to EXT2. If you have a VCR, connect it to EXT1 in order to benefit from the sound output.

Depending on the model, the headphones socket is situated on the front panel or on the right-hand side of the TV set.

To adjust headphone volume, use the HEADPHONE setting in the SOUND menu (p. 7).

The headphone must have an impedance in the range 32 to 600 ohms.

Carry out the connections featured opposite.

Using the key, select EXT3 for a VHS or 8mm camcorder and S-VHS3 * for an S-VHS or Hi-8 camcorder.

For a mono sound camcorder, connect the sound signal to

the AUDIO L. input. Use the key to reproduce the sound on the left and right loudspeakers of the television.

*Only available on certain models

RGB Signals: These are 3 Red, Green and Blue video signals which directly drive the red, green and blue emitters in the cathode ray tube. Using these signals provides better picture quality.

S-VHS Signals: These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards. The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded separately on the tape.This provides better picture quality than with standard video (VHS and 8

mm)where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video signal. NICAM sound: Process by which digital sound can be transmitted.

System: Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.There are different standards: BG, DK, I, and L L’.The SYSTEM setting (p. 4) is used to select these different standards. This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. Pal is used in the majority of European countries, Secam in France, the CIS and the majority of African countries.

The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.The inputs EXT1 and EXT2 are used to read NTSC coded recordings.

16:9: Refers to the ration between the length and height of the screen.

Wide screen televisions have a ration of 16/9, conventional screen TV sets have a ration of 4/3.
