INTRODUCTION

Your Video Converter (RF Modulator) is designed to convert
the separate audio and video signals (from a DVD, video
camera, or video game, for example) into VHF TV signals
that you can view on a TV set equipped with only a 75 Ohm
(F-type) input.

The FCC Wants You to Know

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.

Your modulator might cause TV or radio interference even
when is operating properly. To determine whether your mod­ulator is causing the interference, turn it off. If the interfer­ence goes away, your modulator is causing it.

Try to eliminate the interference by:

• moving your RF Modulator away from the receiver

• connecting your RF Modulator to an outlet that is on a
different electrical circuit from the receiver

• contacting your lcoal store for help

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires
that you stop using your RF Modulator. Changes or modifi­cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s FCC authorization to oper­ate this equipment.

CONNECTIONS

Follow these steps to connect your RF Modulator.

1. If your video source is stereo, plug the connectors on

one end of a stereo A/V cable into the video and audio
input jacks on the RF Modulator. Plug the connectors
on the cable’s other end into to video and audio output
jacks on the video source, using the color coding on
the connectors as a guide.

If your video source is monaural, plug the connectors on
one end of an A/V cable into the video and audio input
jacks on the RF Modulator (using the AUDIO L jack). Plug
the cable’s other ends into the video and audio jacks on
the video source. Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cables to
the RF Modulator following these guidelines:

REQUIRED PARTS

The following items (not supplied) are required to connect
your RF Modulator to a video input source and your TV.

• one audio/video shielded cable with three phono
connectors at each end, if the video source’s audio
output is stereo; or one audio/video shielded cable
with two phono connectors at each end if the video
source’s audio output is monaural

• two 75-ohm coaxial cables with F-type connectors

• a 75-ohm-to-300-ohm matching transformer, if your TV
does not have a VHF 75-ohm F-connector

Note: The audio signal will be modulated to mono,
whether the video source is stereo or monaural.
