NOTETO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
INTRODUCTION
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for
proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the build-
ing, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Your Video Converter (RF Modulator) is designed to convert
the separate audio and video signals (from a DVD, video
camera, or video game, for example) into VHF TV signals
that you can view on aTV set equipped with only a 75 Ohm
(F-type) input.
WARNING:To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
product to rain or moisture.This unit for indoor use only
The FCC WantsYou to Know
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is
subject 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 undesired operation.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
!
DO NOT OPEN
CAUTION:TO REDUCETHE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER OR BACK. NO USER-
SERVICE-ABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING
TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
Your modulator might causeTV or radio interference even
when is operating properly.To determine whether your mod-
ulator is causing the interference, turn it off. If the interfer-
ence goes away, your modulator is causing it.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within
the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient mag-
nitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
Try to eliminate the interference by:
•
•
moving your RF Modulator away from the receiver
connecting your RF Modulator to an outlet that is on a
different electrical circuit from the receiver
contacting your lcoal store for help
•
The exclamation point with an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires
that you stop using your RF Modulator. Changes or modifi-
cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s FCC authorization to oper-
ate this equipment.

REQUIRED PARTS
The following items (not supplied) are required to connect
your RF Modulator to a video input source and yourTV.
CONNECTIONS
Follow these steps to connect your RF Modulator.
1. If your video source is stereo, plug the connectors on
one end of a stereo A/V cable into the video and audio
input jacks on the RF Modulator. Plug the connectors
on the cable’s other end into to video and audio output
jacks on the video source, using the color coding on
•
one audio/video shielded cable with three phono
connectors at each end, if the video source’s audio
output is stereo; or one audio/video shielded cable
with two phono connectors at each end if the video
source’s audio output is monaural
two 75-ohm coaxial cables with F-type connectors
a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm matching transformer, if yourTV
does not have a VHF 75-ohm F-connector
the connectors as a guide.
Video Source
•
•
(DVD Player)
Note:The audio signal will be modulated to mono,
whether the video source is stereo or monaural.
If your video source is monaural, plug the connectors on
one end of an A/V cable into the video and audio input
jacks on the RF Modulator (using the AUDIO L jack). Plug
the cable’s other ends into the video and audio jacks on
the video source. Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cables to
the RF Modulator following these guidelines:

Note to the CATV System Installer:This reminder is
provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to
article 820-22 of the NEC that provides guidelines for

If yourTV is already connected to another VHF input
source (such as cable, an antenna, or a VCR, for
example), disconnect the VHF input source’s 75-ohm
cable from theTV’s 75-ohme VHF/UHF terminal, and
reconnect it to the RF Modulator’s ANT IN terminal.
Then connect a 75-ohm coaxial cable between theTO
TV terminal on the RF Modulator and the 75-ohm
VHF/UHF terminal on yourTV.
Note: If yourTV has only 300-ohm VHF screw terminals,
use a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm matching transformer to
complete the connection.
2. Plug the RF Modulator’s power cord into a standard AC
outlet.
If yourTV is not already connected to another VHF
source, connect a 75-ohm coaxial cable between to the
TOTV terminal on the RF modulator and the75-ohm
VHF/UHF terminal on yourTV.
OPERATION
1. Turn on theTV and set it to either Channel 3 or 4.
whichever is not used for regular broadcasts in your
area.
