The ChannelPlus model 5601 stereo converter encodes the left and right baseband audio channels from a stereo source, into the BTSC stereo multiplex format required for NTSC modulators. Putting this product in front of a normally monaural modulator allows it to transmit the audio signal, maintaining the original MTS stereo and surround sound information. DIP switches are used to set the correct pre-emphasis and modulation level for each listed modulator.

Connecting the 5601

Controls & Connections

The unit consists of three baseband video and audio inputs that connect to the stereo source (IN). The three video and audio outputs (OUT) connect to the modulator.

Power is supplied from the 15VDC power cube. The 5601 consumes approximately 1 watt of power. Assuming this will not load down the existing modulators power supply, the 5601 may be powered by using the included power Y adapter. The 5601 will also run off the 12VAC power cube used with the ChannelPlus 5200 series, 3024 and 3026 ALL-In-One modulators.

DIP Switch Settings

The 5601 must be set for the type of modulator it will be connected with to ensure proper stereo sound. Using the list, set the DIP switches on the 5601 to the setting for your modulator.
