CONTROLS  AND  FUNCTIONS 

(Operation  Summary)

©  

Power  LED

Use  to  tell  when  the  power  is  on.

(D 

INTENSITY  Control

Turn  this  knob  clockwise  to  “ click"  the  power  on.

Continue  turning  it  clockwise  to  increase  the  intensity  of  the  TV  picture 
brightness.  This  control  is  similar  to  your  TV  contrast  control  but  it 
operates  over  a  greater  range  and  has  less  effect  on  other com ponents  of 

the  TV  picture  (color,  hue,  etc.).

Turn  it  counterclockw ise  to  decrease  the  intensity  of  the  brightness  or to 
"click”  the  power  off.

The  INTENSITY  setting  is  not  affected  by  the  posilion  of  the  MODE 
switch;  this  control  is  always  active  when  the  power  is  on.

(D 

CHROMA  Control

Turn  this  control  clockwise  to  increase  the  intensity  of  the  colors  in  the  TV 

picture.  This  is  necessary  for  tapes  recorded  wifh  insufficient color  or 
excessive  burst  signal.  (Colors  will  look  faded.)

Turn  this  control  counterclockwise  to  decrease  the  intensity  of  the  colors 
in the  TV  picture.  This  is  necessary  for  tapes  that  were  recorded  with 
excessive  color  or  insufficient  burst  signal.  (Colors  will  look  too  intense.)

®  

BURST  Control

Turn  this  control  clockwise  to  reduce  the  burst  signal;  this  increases  color 
intensity.  Turn  it counterclockwise  to  increase  the  burst  signal;  this 

decreases  color  intensity.

The  combination  of the  BURST  and  CHROMA  controls  gives  you  the 
greatest  possible  range  of  color  control.

W hat  is  a  Burst  Signal?

A  burst  signal  tells  your  TV  that  the  TV  signal  contains  color  information.  It  acts 
also  as  a  reference  point  from  which  your  TV  evaluates  the  intensity of  that 
color  information.  The  proper  setting  of  the  BURST  control  assures  maximum 
control  range  for  the  CHROM A  control.

If there  is  too  little  burst  signal,  as  in  some  worn  or  third  generation  tapes,  the 

color  will  be  too  intense.

If 

there  is  too  much  burst  signal,  as  in  som e  tapes  made  from  TV  broadcasts, 

the  color  will  appear faded.

If  there  is  no  burst  signal  the  picture  will  be  black  and  white,  even  if  the  color 

information  is  on  the  video  tape.

©  

HUE  Control

Turn  this  control  to  change  the  hue  of  the  colors  in  the  TV   picture.  You 
will  have  complete  control  for  correction  of pictures  with  too  much  red, 
green,  or  blue.

This  control  is  sim ilar  to  the  tint  control  on  your  TV  but  operates  over  a 
greater  range.  Use  it  in  combination  with  the  TV  tint  control  for  even 
greater  control  range.

©  

MODE  Switch

BYPASS —   Select  this  position  to  bypass  all  Color  Processor controls 
except  INTENSITY.

COLOR  —   Select  this  position  for  complete  color  processing.

B/W  —   Select this  position  for pure  black  and  white  viewing  (without  false 

color  tint).

®  

SOURCE  A/B  Switch

Set  this  switch  to  A  to  process  the  source  connected  to  the 

VIDEO  IN 

jack;  set  it to  B  to  process  the  source  connected  to  the 

VIDEO  IN  jack. 

The  selected  source  will  be  sent  to  both  A  and  B  VIDEO  OUT  jacks.

®  

Power  Cord

Plug  into  a  standard  AC  outlet  (120V,  60  Hz).

®  

VIDEO  IN  Jacks  (A/B)

Connect  one  of  these jacks  to  the  video  out jack  on  your  VCR  or  video 

disc  player;  use  shielded  cable  with  RCA-type  plugs.  You  may  connect  up 
to  two  units.

Use  the  A/B  Switch  to  select  the  source  to  be  processed  by  the  Color 
Processor.

®  

VIDEO  OUT  Jacks  (A/B)

Connect  one  of  these jacks  to  the  video  in  jack  on  your  VCR,  video 
stabilizer/RF  modulator,  video  enhancer/stabilizer,  or  a  true  TV  monitor; 
use  shielded  cable  with  RCA-type  plugs.  You  may  connect  up  to  two 
units.

The  source  selected  by  the  A /8   switch  will  be  sent  to  both  VIDEO  OUT 

jacks.

Note: 

The  VIDEO  OUT jacks  are  active  only when  the  power  is  on.
