ERMS

Audio/Video Inputs • 

These connectors (phono type plug)

receive audio and video signals from VCRs or other devices.

Auto Program • 

The procedure of adding or deleting channel

numbers into the Television’s memory. The Television “remem-
bers’’ only the locally available or desired channel numbers and
skips over any unwanted channel numbers.

Closed Caption •

Broadcast standard which allows you to read

the voice content of television programs on the TV screen.
Designed to help the hearing impaired, this feature uses on-
screen "text boxes" to show dialog and conversations while the
TV program is in progress.

Coaxial Cable • 

A single solid antenna wire normally matched

with a metal (F-type) connector that screws (or pushes) directly
onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.

Menu • 

An on-screen listing of feature controls that are avail-

able for adjustment.

On-screen Displays (OSD) •

The wording or messages generat-

ed by the television to help the user with specific feature con-
trols (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Remote Sensor • 

A window or opening on the Television con-

trol panel through which infrared remote control signals are
received.

Status/Exit • 

Allows the user to quickly confirm the current

channel number. Status can also be used to clear the Television
of on-screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the
displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the
screen).

Surf •

Scanning specific channels in a limited channel list.

Tuner Mode • 

Designed for first time set up and use where the

TV is set for antenna or cable TV signal connections. 

Twin Lead Wire •

The more commonly used name for the two

strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and out-
door antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire
requires an additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to
the 75 Ohm Input terminals on recent Televisions and VCRs.
