5. Trouble-shooting
This chapter tries to answer questions and concerns that can arise
when you install and use the VGA to Video
Ultimate Pro
. It also
describes what to do when you have problems with the unit that you
can’t solve yourself.
5.1 Common Questions and Concerns
Q. My TV doesn’t have an RCA jack (composite-video
connector). How can I connect the
Ultimate Pro
to the TV?
A1
: Check the TV – if it has a 4-pin mini-DIN connector for S-video
input, use this type of video instead (the quality of the picture will be
better anyway).
A2
: If your TV is hooked to a VCR, connect through the VCR as follows:
1.
Install and interconnect the Ultimate Pro normally, but
connect the composite-video cable to the VCR’s VIDEO IN
jack instead of to the TV.
2.
Turn on the VCR and the TV. Switch the TV to the channel
that takes VCR inputs. Play a tape for a moment on the
VCR to make sure that you can see the program on the TV
screen, then remove the tape from the VCR.
3.
Consult your VCR’s manual to find out how to set the “input
source” mode for the VCR. (VCRs generally have two or
three input sources: one called TV, CABLE, or TUNER; one
called VIDEO IN or AUX; and occasionally one called TAPE.)
Set the input source to VIDEO IN or AUX. Your TV should
now display the images from the
Ultimate Pro.
A3
: Another option is to use an RF-modulator: You can use an RF
modulator (not included) to convert the
Ultimate Pro’s
composite-video
signal to an RF signal and send that signal into the TV’s antenna
(VHF/UHF) input. (The quality of the picture will not be as clear as
using only the composite-video or S-video connections directly into the
TV.)
