1 Introduction
This manual is intended for users of the ‘Trust Televiewer 1600‘.
The device allows you to switch the monitor screen of your computer to a TV screen in
a simple manner. The Televiewer operates independently and thus does not depend
on any operating system. The Televiewer is suited for IBM compatible PCs, Mac
systems and NEC PCs.
The Televiewer 1600 supports resolutions up to 1600x1200 in real colours. With its
Composite video and S-VHS connections, and with the included SCART converter
plug and sound cable, you can connect your computer image and sound to virtually
every TV set. This makes the Televiewer ideally suited for playing games and viewing
DVD films on large screen television. The Televiewer is also exceptionally well suited
for presentation purposes.
