Video RF Modulator Owner's Manual

INTRODUCTION
Your Video RFModulator is designed to convert the separate audio and video signals (from a video camera, computer, portable VCR, satellite receiver, DVD player, etc.) into normal VHF1V signals that you can see on any regular 1V set. Warning: For indoor use only; to reduce risk of fire or shock hazard, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.

PARTS REQUIRED
You need the following items, not supplied with your Video RF Modulator, to connect it between a video input source (video game, video camera, satellite receiver, D player, etc.) and your 1V. VD Two 75-ohm coaxial cables with F-type connectors If your 1V does not have a VHF 75-ohm F-connector, you will also need a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm matching transformer One video shielded cable with RCA Plugs and one audio (stereo) cable with RCA P lugs OR Dubbing Cable for VCR/OVD with RCA Plugs O 3 shielded cables with RCA Plugs R One S-Video Cable

CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT OPEN.

CONNECTIONS
Follow these steps to connect your RF Modulator: 1. Connect an S -Video or video cable between the S-Video or video output jack on your video source and the RF Modulator's S-VIDEO or VIDEO IN jack.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER OR BACK. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. RE FER SERVICINGTO QUALI FIED PERSONNEL.

This symbol is intended to alert you to the presence of uninsulated dangerous vo~age within the RF Modulator's enclosure that might be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Do not open the RF Modulator's case. This symbol is intended to inform you that important operating and maintenance instructions are included in the literature accompanying this RF Modulator.

Note: If both the S-Video and standard video are hooked up, the s-video will be given priority

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

This device complies with Part 15 of the F Rules. Operation is subject CC to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesirable operation. Even under optimum conditions, your Video RF Modulator may cause undesirable interference. We suggest the following methods for trouble shooting: 1. Use an AC outlet that is not the same circuit as the receiver. 2. Place the RF Modulator in a location further away from your receiver. In the event that interference still occurs after the above steps have been taken, you are required by FCC regulations to discontinue use of this product. Important Safety Information: 1. Before beginning installation of your Video RF Modulator read all instructions and follow exactly throughout the installation. . After installation is complete, keep all instructions in a safe place so they may be referred to in the future if necessary. . Please note the ideal environment for this device is on a hard flat surface away from all heat sources and moisture.

2. Connect an audio cable between the audio output jacks on your video source and the RF Modulator's AUDIOIN jacks.
AUDIO IN Jacks

3. Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cables to the RF Modulator following these guidelines: If your 1V is already connected to another VHF input source (such as cable 1V, VCR, etc.):

THERE ARE NO OTH EXPRESS OR IMPLIED ER WARRANTIES. Incidental or consequential damages are disclaimed where permitted by law.

a. C onnect the input sources (antenna, cable TV, VCR, etc.) 75-ohm cable to the RF Modulator's ANT IN terminal. b. Connect a75-ohm coaxial cable between the TO TV terminal on the RF Modulator and the 75-ohm VHF input terminal on your TV. Note: If your TV has only 300-ohm VHF screw terminals. use a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm matching transformer to completethe connection.

CAUTION: Apparatus shal l not exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

4. Plug the RFModulator's power cord into a standard AC outlet.

OPERATION
1. Turn on the TV and set it to either Channel 3 or 4, whichever of the two is not used for regular broadcasts in your area. 2. Set the RFModulator's CHANNEl3 or 4 switch to the same channel you set on the TV (3 or 4)

MOD. ON

3. Turn on the connected video source, the modulator will deliver the video/audio signal to the TV set and the red light of MOD. ON will be ON. 4. Turn off the connected video source, the modulator will be switched automatically to deliver the ANT/Cable signal to the TV set and the red led of MOD. ON will be off.

NOTE: lED is on only while the video signal is being

modulated.
