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.

Call NEXTVIEW NEXTVIEW is an easy-to-use electronic programme magazine with which video recorders can also be programmed (by means of data transferred between the TV set and the recorder).

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.

Aerial connection

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.).

External loudspeakers

The sockets for connection of external loudspeakers are located on the rear of the TV set and are identified by the symbols

. The impedance of the external speakers must not be less than 4 Ohms. When external speakersare plugged in, the internal speakers on the front of the TV set are switched off. The subwoofer on the back of the TV set remains on.

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.

Example: You are watching a programme on ITN; during the commercials, you switch to BBC with the aid of the numeric keys

 . .

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 in Step 1, below.

Example:

Transmission standard I is to be set. This must be done manually.

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 related coloured keys.

In this example, the transmission standard I PAL 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).

Sound settings

You must change the settings in the menu „Sound settings“ if your TV set is connected to a HiFi system or if you wish to compensate for the varying sound volumes of different stations.

Audio sockets via which the TV set can be connected to a HiFI system are provided on the rear of the set. The factory settings for this menu are shown below.

Example: The TV set is to be connected to a HiFi system and this system is to control the sound.

Press this key on the remote

control....

The screen displays Explanation

1. Call the menu „Sound set-

tings“ and switch off the speakers

2. Change the HiFi output and

adjust the level

3. Activate and deactivate the

volume adaptation

4. Store the settings and

return to TV picture

TV picture

The internal speakers of the TV set can be switched on and off.

If you connect your TV set to a HiFi system, it is best to switch these speakers off.

If the speakers are switched on, the HiFi output is automatically set to variable.

If the HiFi output is set to linear, the internal speakers are automatically switched off.

For the example above:

If the sound from the TV set is to be controlled with the HiFi system, the HiFi output must be set to linear. When this is done, the sound can longer be controlled with the aid of the remote control. The only exception to this is the mute function .

If you wish to control the sound settings with the remote control again, you must set the HiFi output back to variable.

In the position „HiFi output linear“, the menu „HiFi output level“ can be used to adjust the volume of the TV set to match that of other devices connected to the HiFi system. Switching of this function can also be programmed on a function key (see page 17).

The various TV stations transmit the sound at different volumes. Some stations, for example, are always louder than others, and some stations increase the volume during the commercials.

If volume adaptation is active, these volume variations are smoothed out.

The setting selected here applies to all programme positions.

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. Switch on the comb filter

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 (auto- matic motion compensation, slight noise reduction), A2 (automatic motion compensation, high noise reduction), M1 (no motion compensation, slight noise reduction), M2, M3, M4, M5 (no motion compensation, maximum noise reduction), or OFF.

• AL1, AL2 or OFF (not available on the models Carat, Stratos and Kreta) - recommended for programmes with moving text panels.

This setting can be saved separately for each programme position.

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.

The comb filter removes so-called „cross-interference“

, which appears as coloured moiré fringes on striped or checked patterns in the picture.

The comb filter can be switched on or off for each programme position in the station table.

You can also programme the comb filter on one of the functions keys in the „Function keys“ menu. You can then switch the comb filter on and off as desired with this key.

Use of this function for AV programme positions is not advisable.

The screen displays Explanation

6.1 Correcting picture deviations

5. Call the second picture menu and adjust the chrominance

6. Adjust the colour offset or contrast

7. Change the picture format

8. Store all settings and return to TV picture

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.

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 range is between -3 and +3.

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“.

If you wish to execute the copy operation in standby mode, you can switch the TV set to this mode by pressing the key.

If this setting is not stored, the programme position must be selected again in order to display the TV programme.

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 S-VHS/Hi8 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 Video Rec. 2)

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 5, „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. Once you have done this, the cursor moves to the output side of the menu and the keys are displayed in colour. If there is more than one AV device shown on the output side, you must select the desired device manually. If you make a mistake, you can switch between the input and output sides of the menu with the keys.

Back to the example:

You want to copy the film from the camcorder to video recorder 2.

Press the key to display the signal from the camcorder on the screen. Then press the yellow key to select the output device.

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).

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.

If the childlock has been set previously, this setting will be used and the television switches to standby mode.

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.

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 of the VC, VE or VD (VF since April 2000) series you can also record SAT programmes* with this menu. For this purpose, the video recorder must be connected to the EURO 1 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 1 socket of the TV, while a Pay-TV decoder (e.g. Premiere) is

connected to the EURO 3 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.

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 (Carat/Stratos 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.

The displayed choice of chapters is adapted to the currently selected subject.

Each time the yellow key is pressed, the next chapter is selected and the corresponding file card is raised.

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

Prolonged depression of the yellow key raises all the chapters sequentially.

2. Select a subject

3. Select a chapter

Basic functions

The first page of the selected subject and chapter is displayed.

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 R 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.

The cursor (coloured bar) can be moved up and down with the and keys. The page number on which the cursor is located can be called directly by pressing the key.

Some stations transmit Teletext pages with news flashes, general information, football results, etc.

Once you have selected such a page and hidden it by pressing the key, the page will be displayed again whenever it is updated by the TV station.

In some cases, it may not be possible to switch to another programme position while a news flash page is displayed.

If this happens, simply select a „normal“ Teletext page with the white key: you will then be able to switch to the desired programme position without problems.

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 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.

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 3 may be connected).

Video rec. 1 is the video recorder which is always connected; Video rec. 2 and 3 are used for copying from one recorder to another. Logic VTR = video recorder with data transfer to/from

the TV set 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 SetTop =external satellite receiver for digital TV 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.

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 3 socket (see also „Connecting external devices“ on page 53).

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

The screen displays Explanation

NEXTVIEW is an electronic programme magazine for all important

TV stations. It is transmitted by various stations and also contains the programme information for other stations.

Your TV set will need about 20 minutes to collect the large quantities of data for the first time.

• A TV set with only one receiver:

- must be left set to the

NEXTVIEW programme position for at

least 20 minutes or

- will collect the data in standby mode during the night, starting at 2 AM.

• A TV set with two receivers collects the data with the second receiver while you are watching another programme with the first receiver (see also the next page).

Once the data have been collected, the TV set stores the programme magazine in a special memory, where it is subsequently updated at regular intervals if the TV set is not switched off with the main power switch. A TV set with two receivers does this during normal use, while a TV set with only one receiver does it at night, in standby mode.

1. Call the menu „Function keys“

This menu shows the current settings for the function keys

The „NEXTVIEW“ function can be assigned only to the function key C.

For this reason, „NEXTVIEW“ is displayed in the possible selections only if the C key was pressed beforehand.

The message shown in the picture in the centre column appears for all programme positions on which NEXTVIEW information is received.

Your TV set displays this message in order to ask whether this programme position is to be used for collecting the NEXTVIEW data.

If not, press the red key for „No“. The message continues to be displayed on all programme positions where NEXTVIEW information is received.

If you want to use this station, press the green key for „Yes“. This programme position is used as the NEXTVIEW programme position and the message is no longer displayed.

If you already know which programme position you want to use for NEXTVIEW, you can enter its number with the numeric keys.

Existing programme position numbers can be overwritten or can be deleted with the C key.

• On a TV set with only one receiver:

Select the NEXTVIEW programme position. After this, do not switch to another station for 20 minutes!

• On a TV set with two receivers:

The TV set attempts to collect the NEXTVIEW data with the second receiver.

The collection operation is interrupted or aborted if:

- you switch from a terrestrial programme position to a SAT positi-

on or vice versa;

- you call the PIP function;

- you call Megatext;

- a recording is programmed in the menu „AV recording“;

- a „timer“ recording is running or is due to start within the next

hour;

- the Megatext function „Subtitles“ and/or „News flash pages“ is

active.

Special notes:

Stations which are shown in the TV station table with an automatic logo (set automatically by the television) are also included in the programme magazine. Stations which transmit two different programmes at different times of the day must be stored in two programme positions.

Stations whose logo has been set manually do not appear in the TV station table. Stations whose logo has been modified (e.g. blanks before the logo) manually are not updated after modification of the logo.

This permits you to exclude stations from which you do not wish to receive the data.

To include such a station in the programme magazine again, carry out the procedure „Direct channel entry“ (see Section 3) for this station. This causes an automatic logo to appear in the station table and the data for this station will be included in the programme magazine the next time it is updated.

18. Collecting NEXTVIEW data

3a. Define the NEXTVIEW pro-

gramme position (station not yet known)

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 of the Metz VC/VD/VE/VF Series 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.

• NexTView programming*: the timer of your video recorder and/or satellite receiver can be programmed with the aid of an electronic programme magazine.

• 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-1 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-1 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 "EURO1: LogicVTR" or "EURO1: LogicVTR+D"

If the picture signal is set otherwise, you must set it to EURO 1 "LogicVTR" or "LogicVTR+D" in the menu "Device connection" (see Page 53 of the Operating Instructions.

Backlight on the TV set

In rare, exceptional cases, the backlight remains off when switched on with the key. The reason for this is that the protective circuit has cut off the current to the lamp.

If this happens, and if you have pressed the key several times, you do not know whether the backlight is switched on or off. To determine this, switch the TV set to standby mode with the key.

In standby mode, the display shows:

- a red dot for standby mode with the backlight off;

- the text „LAMP ON“ for standby mode with the backlight on.

If „LAMP ON“ is displayed and the backlight does not light, switch it off by pressing the key - the red dot is now displayed.

Wait for at least 10 seconds and then press the key to switch the backlight on.

If the backlight still does not light, there is a technical fault in the TV set.

Safety note

If there is a technical fault in your TV set, the complete lamp assembly must be replaced by a trained technician!

The TV set may be opened and repaired only by a trained technician.

CAUTION! DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCKS

Please have your TV set repaired by your local dealer.
