) Using the 9V battery singly without a 9V transformer, the
power LED status will flash when the voltage of battery go
down to about Low Vo ltage. (That is indicating the power
of batter will use up.)
2. Power On/Off: Push the Power SW up to power on your
device (The Power LED is light). Push the Power SW
down to power off your device (The Power LED is dark)
3. Resolution Switch: Support you at least 7 kinds of
resolution for choice. Please refer to “Appendix A:
Resolution.”
4. Pattern Switch Button: Switch the Pattern Mode that
you want to test. Please refer to “Appendix B: Pattern

1.6.3 PG-Y1Z (YPbPr_RCAx3)
Use for RCA cable connections. These connectors are
labeled Y, Pb and Pr. These are HDTV-Component video
connections to be connected to the Y, Pb and Pr connectors
of a HDTV monitor or TV with component video input.
Y connector: Y is for luminance signal drive a 1V
peak-to peak signal into a 75-ohm load. The Y signal can
be used alone in some cases, just like using luminance to
test only of an NTSC, PAL or SECAM TV with its
Composite input. The signal will be seen as a
monochrome image, which is fine for most patterns that
are monochrome.
Pb connector: Pb is for the chrominance (color) signal
drive 0.7V peak-to-peak signals into 75-ohm loads.
Pr connector: Pr is for the chrominance (color) signal
drive 0.7V peak-to-peak signals into 75-ohm loads.
1.6.4 Power Jack
Use for the DC 9V power adapter. The Pow er Jack is on
the side of the device. The device supports 3 kinds of plugs
for choice (for USA, UK and Europe DC plugs.)

Chapter 3 Troubleshooting
1. If there is no reaction when using the device, please
ensure the following matters:
a. If it is unable to power onÆthere is a possibility of
fault battery or inferior battery. Please connect it with
the transformer.
b. If it is able to power on but there is no reactionÆ
Lower the resolution or change the resolution and
vertical frequency.
Please ensure the compatibility the mode of the
monitor.
2. What is the Pattern Generator’s function?
a. Use to test and maintain studio equipment, such as
monitor, cabli ng, and recording equipment.
b. For a TV engineer or technician wants to test and
calibrate a DTV monitor during repair.
c. A home-theater user wants to get the best result s out
of the DTV equipment.
d. A studio installer wants to test cables and equipment
so that can get the best effect.
e. For the DTV sets seller to show side-by-side
comparisons of quality.
f. For teacher to train their students about the latest
DTV quality test technologies.
g. To test a new DTV set whether compatibility with the
ATSC standards.
3. When should I have to charge the battery?
We suggest you to charge the battery when the battery
