Hints for use of the Operating Instructions

Do not be put off by the size of the Operating Instructions. Initially, it is sufficient to read the instructions in Sections 1.1, 2 and 4. In order to familiarise yourself with the TV set and its many functions, we recommend that you read the Operating Instructions step by step, carrying out the described actions on your TV set as you do so. This method, often called "learning by doing", is the easiest way of learning how to execute the various functions.

Do not be afraid to change the settings in the various menus (the TV menu, the TV station table, programming of the function keys, etc.). If you make any changes to these settings, the TV set reacts immediately, but the changes are not yet stored. After each change in a menu, a red box is displayed at the bottom right of the screen, asking if you want to save the changes.

• If you want to save the changes, press the OK key to do so.

• If you are not sure, or if you do not want to save a changed setting, press the MENU key and then the TV key to exit from the menu without saving the new settings.

We have made every effort to provide a detailed table of contents and a comprehensive index to help you to find the information you need. The Section "Glossary" contains explanations of various technical terms used in the manual.

In the descriptions of the various functions, the left-hand column shows which keys you must press in order to see the screen display given in the centre column. Do not press the keys too quickly. It may occur that the TV set will not recognise the next key you press and may therefore not display the menu shown in the centre column but something completely different. The right-hand column of the function description provides additional information which may be useful but is not absolutely necessary for execution of the function.

If you comply with these hints, you should have no problems in the operation of your TV set.

The remote control sends commands to the TV set with the aid of infrared light. For this reason, you should always point the remote control at the TV set for reliable operation. Use of the remote control may interfere with the operation of other devices or systems controlled which use infrared light (such as infrared headphones).

The television must be switched on or in standby mode (ON/OFF key depressed) when it is to be operated by remote control. Always point the remote control in the direction of the TV for operation. A pilot lamp starts to flash as soon as a key on the remote control handset is pressed.

Disposal of batteries Do not dispose of spent batteries with domestic rubbish. Please return spent batteries to collecting points should they exist in your country !

Connecting the aerial

Standard SAT and terrestrial station aerial sockets are fitted at the rear of the TV.

Thunderstorms represent a danger for all electrical appliances! If lightning strikes the power line or the aerial, the TV may be damaged even if it is switched off. Therefore, always unplug the mains lead AND aerial during thunderstorms.

If the TV is not going to be used for an extended period of time, for instance when on holiday, then disconnect the set both from the mains and the aerial.

1. Setting up and connecting

Setting up

When selecting a suitable place for the TV, be sure that no bright light or sunlight falls on the screen. Light may cause reflections and impair the brilliance of the image.

The best viewing distance is five times the picture tube diagonal, e.g. about 3.5 m for TV sets with a 70 cm screen.

TV sets require adequate ventilation. The ventilation slots at the rear of the set should therefore never be covered by curtains, doilies, newspapers or similar objects. Likewise, all slots at the bottom of the set must be freely accessible so that the intake of air is not impaired in any way

Do not set up the TV near a radiator as this would impair adequate cooling.

Do not place

burning candles or

- flower vases filled with water on top of the TV set. Hot wax and liquids destroy the electrical components and jeopardize the electrical safety of the set

Mains voltage

Plug the mains lead into a wall outlet. The TV set is equipped for 230 V ac (Australia 240 V ac).

If you place the set in a wall unit, leave sufficient space on all sides so that the air can circulate freely.

Your TV set is intended for use in dry rooms. If you wish to use it occasionally outdoors, be sure to protect it against any kind of moisture (rain, splashes, dew, etc.).

1. Select programme position

4. Next programme

You can step sequentially through the programme positions with the keys. If either of these keys is held down for more than two seconds, a programme box for selection of the desired programme is displayed on the screen. Release the or key as soon as the desired logo is highlighted in white: this programme position will then be selected.

This TV set can manage up to 225 TV programme positions. If you are connected to a cable network or use a terrestrial aerial, you will not need all of these positions at the moment. If, however, you have a SAT upgrade kit installed, the number of programmes can increase drastically. We do not know how many programmes will be available in the future. For this reason, we have provided plenty of programme positions in reserve. For selection of the desired programme position, we have invented a simple input method which saves you having to enter three digits for each position.

The first digit you enter is normally the hundreds digit. If, however, you have less than 100 programmes stored, this digit automatically moves to the tens position. If you have less than ten programmes stored, it moves to the units position.

Example: you have stored programmes in positions 1 to 35 and you want to select position 3. Press the keys and  or

simply and confirm with . Programme position 4 can be selected by simply entering , since there are no programme positions higher than 39. Further examples are shown in the following text.

2. Select programme position

25 (only the first 99 programme positions in the station table are occupied)

Only the programme positions 0-99 in the station table may be occupied if a programme is to be selected by pressing two numeric keys.

After a programme has been selected successfully, a box containing the programme position number, the time and the current sound mode (e.g. stereo) is displayed on the screen.

To select a programme position with only a single-digit number, you must enter before the related digit, e.g. and ; alternatively, you can press and then press .

2.1 TV menu and operator help

Operator Help: Call/exit

TV menu: Call/exit

Operator Help shows the functions of the individual keys when in TV mode.

The A, B, and C function keys can be programmed by the user. Consequently their functions can differ to those shown in the adjoining picture.

Operator Help can be called for each menu displayed on the screen. (Example: Operator Help with displayed TV menu).

The individual menu lines are selected with the coloured keys of the remote control, to open the corresponding submenu. Keys not enhanced in white or colour on the displayed menu have no function in the current operating state.

Menu control of the TV, and the versatility of the system, ensure that supposed complicated settings and entries are made easily and clearly comprehensible for everyone. Operator Help can be called with the key when in TV mode. Operator Help indicates the functions of the individual keys.

All settings are entered by way of different submenus. Simply call Operator Help with the key should you encounter difficulties in entering the different equipment configurations or if problems arise in operating the TV. Operator Help is specifically matched to the corresponding

and functions as a reminder when settings are entered or programmed.

Settings in the submenus can be changed with the keys.

Press the key to confirm and store the new setting.

Press the key to move back by one step within the TV menu.

With this key, you can switch back and forth between the last two programme positions you selected.

3. Presetting TV stations

In the sub-menu Standard, you can select the colour and/or the transmission standard. The TV set normally recognises the colour standards (PAL, SECAM, NTSC) automatically, but the transmission standard must always be set manually. The multi-standard upgrade kit is required for the additional transmission standards L, I, D/K and NTSC 4.43. In exceptional cases, the colour standard may not be recognised; if this happens, you must set it as described below.

Example:

The colour standard „NTSC“ is to be set.

Press this key on the remote

control....

The screen displays Explanation

The automatic function of the submenu „Standard“ is preset in the factory.

The settings PAL, SECAM and NTSC need to be selecte

d manually only if the automatic detection function does not recognize the colour standard correctly.

☞ The transmission standard must always be set

manually.

The various standards can be selected with the keys.

In this example, the transmission standard NTSC is selected.

The multi-standard upgrade kit 031 NC 1030 (optional extra) is required for the reception of the transmission standards L, I, D/K and NTSC 3,58.

3. Presetting TV stations

Direct channel entry/

station search

When the TV set leaves the factory, there are no stations programmed. Depending on where you live, the stations have different channel numbers. There are three possible ways of programming the stations:

a) Direct channel input b) Station search c) the Autostore function

1. Call the station table and channel type survey

2. Select the type of channel (e.g. standard channel)

3. Enter the channel number (Example: Standard channel

06) or start station search

With direct channel entry it is necessary to know the type of channel and the channel number.

If type and number of channel are not known, you can scan through the entire reception range with the search function to locate stations.

The station table lists all the preset stations. These stations can be changed at any time. The cursor always highlights the type of channel

currently preset in the given programme position. For the search function it is advisable to switch to a

vacant programme position.

Two types of channels are offered in the box with the yellow frame. Select the desired channel type with the related coloured keys.

Once the channel type has been selected, a channel number is displayed for the highlighted item if a station is stored in this programme position. If no station is stored, two dashes are displayed.

„SAT freq.“ and „Aerial control“ can be selected only if a SAT upgrade kit is installed in the TV set.

With direct channel entry, the station table is briefly faded out when the channel number is entered, and the selected station is displayed.

The station search proceeds from the displayed channel number in a forward sequence with the key, and in a reverse sequence with the key. Search proceeds from the lower channel area upwards or downwards when two lines are displayed. The search stops when a station has been found.

Proceed as described in step 4 if the located station is to be stored.

Press the or key if the located station is not to be stored so that the search can be continued.

Complete fine tuning if station reception is not clear (see Section 3.2).

6. Volume adjustment and forced mono

It is possible for TV stations to be received at different volume levels although the volume level settings on the individual programme positions are identical. To overcome this problem, you can set a volume correction factor for each programme position.

Example:

Programme 1 is soft: volume value 40. Programme 3 is loud: volume value 40. Programme 1 is to be adjusted to the same volume as Programme 3.

Switch over to programme position 1.

1. Call the sound submenu

and adjust the volume

2. Set forced mono

3. Store the setting and return

to TV picture

In this submenu, you can assign a volume correction factor to a programme position and, if necessary, activate forced mono sound mode.

A volume correction factor can be set with the keys when the text is displayed on a blue background.

Press the key to enter a positive correction factor which is added to the standard volume value (increasing the volume). Press the key to enter a negative correction factor which is subtracted from the standard volume value (decreasing the volume).

In our example:

Press the key and increase the volume until it is the same as the volume on Programme 3. The resulting correction factor could , for example, be displayed as 05.

It may happen that the TV set inadvertently switches from mono to stereo during a transmission, although no stereo programme is being received. This usually depends upon the prevailing reception conditions.

Use the keys to select forced mono.

If this setting is stored, all transmissions received in this programme position will always be reproduced in mono.

All changed settings are stored.

The screen displays Explanation

6.1 Correcting picture deviations

It is possible for stations to be received with differing levels of chrominance, picture sharpness and contrast, even though the settings on the individual programme positions are identical. For this reason, your TV set enables you to correct the value for each programme position and/or to select a picture correction function (CTI, noise reduction).

1. Call the first picture menu in the station table and correct the picture sharpness

2. Switch on the noise reduction

3. Switch on the CTI function

4. Call the second picture menu and adjust the chrominance

The picture menu contains all settings which can change the picture.

The picture sharpness can be adjusted separately for each station in the station table. This setting overrides the standard setting.

The new value can be saved by pressing the key. The value set in this manner remains stored even if the

TV is switched off with the main power switch.

This TV set is equipped with a special noise-reduction function for use where the picture contains „snow“ or is unclear. The noise reduction function can be set to

A1: automatic motion compensation, slight noise

reduction

A2: automatic motion compensation, high noise

reduction,

A3: no motion compensation, slight noise reduction),

or OFF.

CTI stands for Colour Transient Improvement and improves the transitions between different coloured areas of the picture, making the picture appear much sharper. The CTI function is effective for both transmissions received by way of the aerial input and for signals received via the AV sockets. CTI also provides a visible improvement when playing back from a video recorder.

However, in certain applications (such as playing back from an S-VHS video recorder), the CTI function may just have the opposite effect.

When playing back from such recorders, CTI can result in a lower-quality picture. For this reason, this menu permits you to switch off the CTI function for specific programme positions.

In this second picture menu, the chrominance, colour offset and contrast can be corrected individually for each programme position.

In our example, the chrominance of Programme 1 is to be diminished. Hold down the key until the colour intensity is the same as in programme position 3.

The chrominance adjustment range is -15 to +15.

If no other values are to be changed, then press the

key to store the new setting.

6.1 Correcting picture deviations

5. Adjust the colour offset or contrast

6. Change the picture format

7. Store all settings and return to TV picture

Normally, it is not necessary to adjust the colour offset.

However, if external units are connected it is possible that colour and black-and-white pictures are not accurately superimposed. A similar effect is sometimes encountered in journals when the black-and-white and colour impressions do not register, with the result that the contours are blurred. The colour offset adjustment has no effect on an RGB input.

The contrast adjustment range is -15 to +15.

If no other values are to be changed, then press the

key to store the new settings.

The picture format of a normal TV set is 4:3. If an input signal in 16:9 format is applied to the EURO socket, the picture format is changed automatically. If a 16:9 input signal is applied to the phono (cinch) sockets or the mini-DIN (YC) socket, the picture format must be changed manually.

An external switching voltage of 4-7 V at the EURO socket automatically switches the TV to 16:9 format, provided that the signal type was stored under the heading „...controls AV operation“ in the menu „Equipm. configuration, device connection“.

7. AV recording

In the „AV recording“ menu, you can define which of the connected peripheral AV devices are to be used for copying a recording.

AV device is a generic term for all external video units, such as video recorders, camcorders,video disk players, photo CD players, etc which can be connected to a TV.

Example: You wish to copy a film recorded with an S-VHS/Hi8 camcorder to an LogicVTR video recorder which is also connected to the

TV set.

1. Call the AV menu

2. Select the desired AV devi-

ces (in this example: Camcorder and LogicVTR)

3. Store the settings and clear

the menu

In the „AV recording“ menu , you can select how the AV devices connected to your TV set (see Section 14, „Equipment configuration/Connecting external devices“) are to be used for copying a recording.

The left side of the menu (Input) shows the devices which supply picture and sound for the copy operation.

Selection of an input for a programme is meaningful only for SAT or decorder operation.

The right side of the menu (Output) shows the devices capable of recording the picture and sound.

After calling this menu, you must first select the input device, i.e. the device which is to supply the picture.

After selection of an input, the menu automatically returns to the output page, where the AV device for recording is selected.

8. Time settings

Switch-on/off and

reminder time

In the „Time settings“ menu, you can enter settings which will instruct the TV to switch itself on or off, and to display a reminder at a given time.

Switching from summer time to winter time and vice versa is carried out automatically by the teletext clock or when the set is switched from standby mode to programme position 1.

The switch-on time function will automatically turn on the TV at the preset time if the television is in standby mode. The switch-off time function will automatically switch it off as desired. The reminder service is intended to help you remember things which you have to do later on, for instance a telephone call. All three settings can be jointly programmed.

Example: The TV is to switch itself on at 20:00 hr, remind you of something at 21:45 hr, and switch itself off at 23.30 hr.

1. Call the „Time settings“

2. Enter the switch-on time

(Example: 20.00 hr)

3. Enter the switch-off time

(Example: 23.30 hr)

The adjoining picture shows the appearance of the „Time settings“ menu when no times have been programmed.

First press the blue key and then press the

or the

key to switch on the function. Enter the desired switch-on time with the numeric keys.

The function is activated after input of the last digit. Henceforth the TV set will switch itself on every day at the preprogrammed time.

When switched on, the TV displays the programme position which was selected when it was last switched off.

The screen displays On - -.

If you press the yellow key, the text in the second line is displayed on a yellow background.

Now press the or the key to switch on the function.

Enter the desired switch-off time with the numeric keys. The function is activated after input of the last digit.

The switch-on/switch-off times can be deleted with the keys (function OFF).

2 0 0 0

When the set has switched itself on automatically, you must press any key you choose on the remote control, otherwise the set will return to standby mode after about 10 min. This is a safety precaution to ensure that the television does not stay on if you are not at home.

8.1 Childlock

Switching on

Your TV set can be protected against unauthorized use. It is possible to prevent any use of the television at all or to permit viewing of up to five specific programmes. Consequently, the childlock can be set to prevent a child from seeing violent films, yet still provide access to children’s programmess on selected channels. Access to such permitted programmes can be provided in general or within a specified period of time.

Example:

The children shall only be allowed to watch programmes on the programme positions 01, 02 and 05 from 14.00 to 18.00 hr. Access to all other programme positions shall be excluded.

1. Call the „Timer/childlock“

2. Call the „Childlock“

submenu and switch on the childlock

3. Select and store permitted

programmes

The childlock can be switched on and off with the keys.

If you set the childlock to „ON“, you must also enter a 4-digit personal code number.

The TV set can now still be switched on, but programmes will not be shown on the screen. Instead the „Childlock“ menu will be displayed with the cursor on the „Enter code“ line.

The childlock can be turned off again by entering the 4-digit personal code number.

The TV is automatically switched to standby mode after approx. 10 minutes if it has not been switched off manually in the meantime.

A maximum of 5 programme positions can be entered to which access is permitted.

These programme positions are entered with the numeric keys; all entries can be erased with the C key.

Back to the example:

Enter the programme positions which are to be accessible. In this example, the programme positions 01, 02 and 05 have been entered.

Before continuing with the next programming steps, the permitted programme positions entered above must be stored; otherwise the entries will be lost.

The screen displays Explanation

8.2 Recording with the timer

The menu "Timer recording" is intended primarily for recording Pay-TV programmes (e.g. Premiere). When using a Metz video recorder with „Data Logic“ you can also record SAT programmes* with this menu. For this purpose, the video recorder must be connected to the EURO 2 socket. *only if a SAT upgrade kit is fitted

8 timers can be programmed up to 2 months in advance.

Example: A VHS video recorder with Data Logic is connected to the EURO 2 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder (e.g. Premiere) is

connected to the EURO 1 socket. You now wish to record a film running on a Pay TV channel.

1. Call the „Timer recording“

2. Enter the date and time of

the film to be recorded (see example)

3. Store the programmed data

and return to the TV picture or standby mode

If no timers have been programmed before, the table in the menu is empty. If you have previously programmed timer recordings, these will be displayed in the table.

The current time of day and the current date are needed for programming in the timer menu. The time is normally obtained from the Hi Text function and the date from the VPS signal. Note that some stations do not transmit VPS signals and/or Hi Text.

If the time and/or date are not detected automatically, you must enter them manually.

The month, the day, the hours and the minutes must each be entered in the form of two digits, e.g. 01.09 for September 1 and 09:00 for 9 AM.

If you make a mistake when entering the date and time, you can delete the entry in the current column or the entire line by pressing the C key. The entire line can be deleted only if the key symbols at the top of the menu are displayed in colour.

In the column "VTR", which can be selected only if a video recorder with "Data Logic" is connected, one of the following settings can be selected with key A: —

No timer data are transferred to the video recorder. The video recorder must be programmed manually.

LV 1)If a "Data Logic" video recorder is connected.

A "Data Logic" video recorder will not function automatically without "LV" and must be programmed manually.

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

Timer recordings are not possible if the childlock is switched on.

This does not apply to video recorders with data transfer!

The same data must also be entered on the AV programme position of the video recorder or on a programme position where the video recorder does not receive a station.

The recording can be aborted at any time by pres-

sing the keys , and sequentially, in this order, or by pressing the C key with the timer menu displayed.

9. Connecting headphones

Headphones can be connected to the TV by way of the connecting socket underneath the fascia cover at the front. The socket will only accept headphones with a 3.5 mm (Nordkap 6.3 mm) jack plug.

We recommend the use of headphones with an impedance of at least 32 Ohms. Headphones of a lower impedance (down to approx.8 Ohms) will impair the sound quality.

The headphones volume can be stored as a standard value. The headphones and the TV speakers can be used together. In the event of 2-channel sound transmissions it is possible to listen to either channel 1 or 2 on the headphones, irrespective of the chan-

nel set for the TV speakers.

Press this key on the remote

control....

The screen displays Explanation

1. Switch off the TV speakers and adjust the headphones volume

2. Store the headphones volume as a standard value

Sound mode selection for headphones

It is advisable to switch off the TV speakers with the key when adjusting the volume for the headphones.

Press the yellow key to display the bar for the headphones volume.

Adjust the volume with the keys.

The standard value for the headphones volume can only be stored by way of the TV menu.

All standard values can be stored in the „Audio standard values“ submenu.

The volume has already been adjusted (see step 1).

It is now only necessary to press the key to store the headphones volume.

With two-channel sound transmissions it is possible to select either channel 1 or channel 2.

If headphones are connected, it is possible to listen, for example, to the English sound track on the speakers (channel 1) and to the other language on the headphones (channel 2).

This setting can also be called with the sound mute active by pressing the yellow key. The desired channel can then be selected with the keys.

The Hi Text file displays all the subjects available on

a specific programme position and the chapters belonging to the currently selected subject.

The range of subjects and chapters depend on the transmitting station and can therefore be completely different in each programme position.

For some stations, for example, only numbers, rather than the header lines, appear in the Hi Text file.

Each time the blue key is pressed, the next subject is selected and the corresponding file card is raised. Prolonged depression of the blue key raises all of the subjects sequentially.

Press the right side of the key to step backwards through the subjects, or the left side of the key to step forwards.

Basic functions

File symbols with arrows in the bottom line indicate that the corresponding coloured keys will activate subject-by-subject, chapter-by-chapter or page-by-page leafing.

The blue text window shows the name of the currently selected subject, while the yellow shows the name of the currently selected chapter.

4. Open the first page of the chapter

Hi Text permits broadcasting stations to improve the display of information and graphics. In the past, there were only eight colours available; with Hi Text, there are 4096 possibilities.

Furthermore, the introduction of so-called pixel graphics makes it possible to present the information pictorially. The broadcasting stations are currently in the process of adopting these innovations.

We have implemented Hi Text in your TV set in such a manner that you can switch it on and off as desired. Pressing the -/-- key switches from Hi Text to Megatext or vice versa.

The currently selected mode („Megatext“ or „Hi Text“) is displayed at the top of each page.

Multiple pages are indicated by a dark bar with the subpage numbers on the left-hand side of the displayed page.

The bright numbers indicate the number of subpages contained in this multiple page. The number of subpages is transmitted by the stations at intervals of 20 seconds. Consequently, it may take some time until all subpage numbers are displayed.

If there are more than 5 subpages, the cursor (white bar) can be moved to the right with the key to

dis-

play the next group of subpage numbers (for example

to 11). Some stations do not provide multiple page identifica-

tion; in this case, the subpages are displayed sequentially. To stop a page for reading, one of the A or B function keys must be programmed with the „Stop page“ function in Hi Text mode. Renewed depression of the „Stop page“ function key advances to another subpage (the one the station is currently transmitting).

Use the

keys to move

the cursor (coloured bar) upwards and downwards through the page numbers. The page number highlighted by the cursor can be called directly with the key.

There will be certain Hi Text pages, e.g. stock market, news, weather forecast, etc., that you willl want to read repeatedly. We have programmed a way of making it easier to read such pages: Hi Text pages can be flagged with the aid of marks (similar to tabs in a file).

We provide a total of 100 marks. Up to 10 marks may be assigned to each programme position, as long as the total number of marks assigned does not exceed 100.

You can set the marks on any desired pages and you can delete them again when they are no longer needed. If marks are set on a page, you can page from one to another by pressing the green key when HiText is active.

In the ARD channel, for example, page 589 is a multiple page.

On multiple pages, marks are always set on the main page.

The teletext transmitted by the station is superimposed on the picture at the bottom of the screen.

The subtitle function can be activated or deactivated with the A*, B* or C* function key.

This TV enables you to display programme subtitles automatically.

For this purpose one of the three A, B or C function keys must be programmed on the remote control handset. Please refer to Section „Equipment configuration - Assigning the function keys“ for programming. The subtitles will only be displayed automatically after a function key has been programmed accordingly.

Example: You wish to watch the news with its subtitles. Program a function key with the „Subtitle“ function.

The subtitle function can be switched off and on again with the correspondingly programmed function key.

Note: If the subtitle function is programmed for

one of the function keys, it will automatically be activated when the TV set is switched on.

2. Call the zoom function for

the current programme position

Variable Zoom

All programmes that are not transmitted in the traditional 4:3 screen format, such as cinema films in Cinemascope or Super-Cinemascope

16:9 format, have black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. With the zoom function, you can increase the size of the picture and make the black bars disappear. Although this also causes part of the

picture to move off the screen at each side, the resulting loss of information is slight and less disturbing than the black bars.

3. Switch off the zoom function

Zoom

Press the button until the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen have disappeared. The entire picture is enlarged uniformly.

The selected enlargement factor is automatically stored for this programme position as long as the TV set is not switched off. Switching to another station will restore the picture to its normal size. If you return to the station for which you activated the zoom function, the picture will be automatically enlarged if the same programme is still running.

If you wish to use the selected enlargement also for other programmes, press the key again after setting the zoom factor with the key. This returns the picture to its normal size, but stores the current enlargement factor for subsequent use.

If the TV set has been switched off with the remote control or the main switch, the stored enlargement factor can be recalled by pressing the key twice.

14. Connecting peripheral equipment

Video recorders can be connected to the TV set via the antenna socket or one of the EURO sockets. We recommend that you use one of

the EURO (Scart) sockets for this purpose, since only the EURO sockets have separate inputs and outputs for picture and sound signals.

Camcorders

can be connected to the TV set with special cables (available from your dealer). The following connection diagram applies in principle to all of our products, although the various sockets may be located in different positions on different units.

Connecting external

devices

In the menu „Device connection“, you can define which AV devices are connected to the various sockets on the TV set. The box „Devices“ contains a list of common AV devices. Only certain devices can be connected to the FRONT sockets.

Wherever possible, the AV devices should be connected to specific EURO sockets, namely: EURO 1: VHS PC, games console ( e.g.Nintendo, photo CD, SAT receiver, Pay-TV decoder, DVD, S-VHS playback unit. EURO 2:

S-VHS/Hi8 video recorder, S-VHS/Hi8 video recorder + Pay-TV decoder, VHS video recorder, SAT receiver, SVHS/Hi8-videorecorder+Pay-TVDecoder, SAT-receiver.

The connections are pre-programmed in the factory as shown in the picture for step 1.

Press this key on the remote

control....

The screen displays Explanation

1. Call the „Device connection“ menu

2. Change the device connections

3. Change the signal type

4. Store the settings and return to TV picture

In the „Device connection“ menu, you can assign one of the defined AV devices to each of the EURO sockets.

The abbreviations in the box on the right have the following meanings:

Video rec. = video recorder (up to 2 may be connected).

Video rec. 1 is the video recorder which is always connected; Video rec. 2 is used for copying from one recorder to another. Logic VTR = video recorder with data transfer to/from

the TV set(e.g. DataLogic, QLink, EasyLink, Megalogic) VTR+Dec. = video recorder and Pay-TV decoder (e.g.

Premiere), where the decoder is connected only to the video recorder.

Camcorder = video camera Decoder = Pay-TV decoder (e-g- Premiere) SAT = external satellite receiver Game = games console

The default settings can be modified to meet your own requirements. You should, however, note the following input and output signal allocations when doing this.

To change the settings, select the appropriate EURO socket with the coloured keys and then select the device to be connected with the and keys.

When the devices are selected, the signal type is always set to „video“. Pressing the red key displays a box for selection of the signal type.

Differences between the signal types:

• continuous AV operation:

the screen displays the picture provided by the AV device. The channel setting of the TV set has no effect.

• . . . controls AV operation:

if the AV device is set to „play“, the screen displays the picture provided by the AV device; if the AV device is set to „stop“, the screen displays the picture of the selected TV programme position.

14. Connecting peripheral equipment

Pay-TV decoder

This Pay-TV decoder decodes the scrambled signals of a Pay-TV station (e.g. Premiere) so that they can be displayed on the screen of the TV set. For connection of a Pay-TV decoder, you need a EURO (=Scart) cable in which all 21 pins are assigned.

If you want to record Pay-TV programmes with a video recorder, we recommend that you connect the Pay-TV decoder directly to the video recorder. If this is not possible, the Pay-TV decoder can be connected to the EURO 1 or EURO 2 socket (see also „Connecting external devices“ on page 44).

The following diagram shows two different connections of a Premiere decoder Typ G2

What is Data Logic?

Until now, your TV set and your video recorder were two separate and independent devices.

With the new "Data Logic", we have created a dialogue system with which the TV set and the video recorder can exchange data.

Video recorders with Data Logic offer the following functions:

•

Automatic transfer of station information for terrestrial or cable reception.

• Direct TV recording: the video recorder records the programme currently displayed on the TV screen, regardless of whether this comes from a terrestrial antenna, a cable system or a satellite.

• Direct control of recording: with the menu "AV recording" or "Timer recording".

• Status messages (such as "Timer recording started") are sent from the video recorder to the TV set and displayed there. (Not available on VC Series)

• Automatic switching to the AV programme position (Not available on VC Series).

• Automatic power-off of the video recorder if the TV set is switched to standby mode. (Not available on VC Series)

Video recorders of the Metz VC series, in combination with a Metz TV set with SAT facility, offer you the tremendous advantage of problemfree recording of SAT programmes.

1. Connecting a Data Logic video recorder to your TV set

Connect the AV-1 socket of the video recorder to the Euro-2 socket of your TV set, using a fully connected Scart cable.

Data Logic will work only if there is a connection from the AV-1 socket to the Euro-2 socket.

• Switch on the video recorder.

2. Setting the TV set for Data Logic

• Select programme position 0 on the TV set. The TV set has been programmed in the factory for video recorder

operation on programme position 0.

In order to check this, press the white key to display the station table with programme position 0 selected. The picture signal for this programme position must be set to "EURO2: LogicVTR" or "EURO2: LogicVTR+D"

If the picture signal is set otherwise, you must set it to EURO 2 "LogicVTR" or "LogicVTR+D" in the menu "Device connection" (see Page 44 of the Operating Instructions.
