IMPORTANT INFORMATION
_________________________
The VPS code
TV programmes are broadcast in the audio modes mono, stereo or two-channel
sound (dual).
Many TV stations identify these different audio modes by the
VPS
signal (VPS =
Video Programme System).
The SAT receiver modulator recognizes this signal and automatically switches to
the corresponding audio mode.
TV stations which are not broadcasting such identifiable signals do not change
the audio mode. This must be done manually in this case.
Particularities in the »AUDIO« menu . . .
. . . for the audio modes »MAIN« (main carrier, »SubMONO«, »STEREO«
and »DUAL« (= dual-channel sound):
1
When selecting »MAIN« (main carrier), no particularities must be observed.
After selecting the frequency, only the appropriate deemphasis must be
selected and the volume adjusted.
2
The »SubMONO« audio mode is selected if the TV sound is transmitted in
mono on a frequency of 7.02 or 7.20 MHz etc.
3
In the »STEREO« audio mode, only the lower sound carrier of the respective
stereo pair 7.02/7.20 MHz or 7.38/7.56 MHz etc. is selected.
– The upper sound carrier is then automatically received on a frequency
which is 180 kHz higher.
4
If the option »autom.« is selected in the following «VPS» menu, and if the
indications »Stereo«, »Dual« or »Mono« appear in addition, then the
receiver modulator recognizes the correct VPS code and switches automa-
tically to the corresponding audio mode.
5
In the following » AUDIO OUT « menu, the »Stereo« or »Dual« (two-channel
sound) audio modes now must be selected manually.
– »Stereo« is selected for stations transmitting the audio signals on the sound
subcarriers and which are transmitting no identifiable signals.
– »Dual« is selected for stations which are transmitting different languages
on the sound subcarriers
Please note that the appropriate lower sound carrier (7.02/7.20) can be
assigned the output sound carrier 5.5 MHz or 5.74 MHz via the »Change«
option in the AUDIO menu.
6
For example, to assign the German TV sound of 7.20 MHz to the 5.5 MHz
sound carrier of the
“EUROSPORT “
channel, it is necessary to exchange
the frequencies in the AUDIO menu option »Change «.
7
With the last menu option »AUDIO-OUT Vol.:«, it is possible to adjust
the volume level of the various receiver modulators to the volume level of the
tuned stations.
