Optimizing the modulator
If the TV set and the video recorder are only connected with an aerial cable - rather than with an additional scart cable - it may happen that in certain reception locations the modulator frequency of the video recorder is occupied by a TV channel. Result: As soon as the video recorder is switched on, the reception quality of the TV picture deteriorates. The following steps will show you how to overcome this problem.
What is a modulator? |
|
The purpose of this electronic assembly inside your |
|
video recorder is to pass on the picture and sound |
|
information read in from the video tape via an aerial |
|
cable like a TV signal to the TV set. The modulator |
|
frequency determines the frequency range in which | TIP |
these signals are transmitted. |
1Switch the video recorder on and make sure there is no cassette in the video recorder
2Press at the same time the STOP button h on the remote control and the STOP/EJECT button ? on the front of the video recorder until the modulator frequency of the set appears in the display (e.g.: “M583” for 583 MHz)
3The video recorder will now transmit a test image on this frequency
4Use =P- or ;P+ to select the option “OPTIMIZE FREQUENCY” and enter a new frequency with the number buttons
Which modulator frequency should I enter?
You can also make the video recorder search automatically for an appropriate frequency. To do so, simply hold down the buttons P. As soon as a free frequency has been found, it will be shown in the
display.PROBLEM
5Tune the programme number of your TV set allocated for video use to the new modulator frequency until you see the test image sharply and in colour
