ScanCard II provides a method of displaying VGA/SVGA,
composite video, S-Video, and various audio connections to
any of the Philips 19”, 25”, 27”, 32” or 36” SmartCard televisions. This allows the user more dynamic picture and
sound quality when using computers, video cameras,
VCRs, DVD Players, Laser Disc Players, CD-i Players,
Web Browsers, and Satellite Systems.
With use of a T374AH Setup Remote (see T374AH Remote
Control Instructions - part # IB7166E002 for complete
details), the installer can adjust the normal commercial tele-
vision functions (with the exception of the BRIGHTNESS
and PICTURE settings for VGA and NON-VGA display
modes). ScanCard II will store a separate set of BRIGHTNESS and PICTURE settings for these display modes. This
allows the display to be optimized for computer generated
graphics while retaining display settings that are pleasing
for off-air or accessory equipment viewing (VCR, DVD,
etc.).
With the ability to adjust the picture through horizontal and
vertical scaling, ScanCard II allows full use of your display
when using the most current computer software applications.
When tuned to the VGA channel, ScanCard II gives the
option of viewing the display twice as large with a 2x
ZOOM feature. This larger display can be “PANNED” left,
right, up, or down by pressing the remote’s CURSOR
keys.
This unique television module can easily be linked or
“daisy chained” to multiple monitors using the “loopthrough” jacks located on the rear jack panel of ScanCard
II. You can create a central control area with many monitoring stations, ideal for educational purposes.
Access to additional external inputs provided by ScanCard
II can be obtained simply by changing channels. Using the
channel UP/DOWN buttons to select the three channels
directly below the lowest broadcast channel, will allow the
use of AUX, S-VIDEO, and VGA inputs. These “channels”
can also be selected directly using the supplied remote.
This remote has dedicated buttons labeled SVID, VGA, and
AUX. Pressing any of these buttons will directly tune the
SmartCard TV to it’s respective channel (or input jack).
ScanCard II transforms any SmartCard television into the
ultimate display for computer graphics, TV broadcast programming, inter-active CD-Rom, DVD, Laser Disc Players
or any of today’s hi-tech entertainment devices.

nstallation of the ScanCard II is easy.
Remember to follow these instructions, be
patient, and use the T374AH Set Up Remote
Control (see T374AH Remote Control
Instructions - part # IB7166E002 for complete
details). Note: This is not the remote supplied
with the ScanCard II package.
Start by unplugging the AC power cord
from the wall socket. Remove the hex head
screws holding the card cover in place. Slide the
card cover off. Be careful when pulling the
Antenna jack (RF IN) out of its plug.
Insert the ScanCard II (with its components
facing down) into the back of the TV. Line up
and guide the 32 pin connector into place. Note:
There are guide pins to help line up the Card
properly. Gently, but firmly, press the card into
place by pushing on the card cover directly in line
with the circuit board itself.
DO NOT press the card into place by pushing on
the corners of the card cover.
Press the RF IN (Antenna) jack firmly into
its plug and replace the hex head screws to secure
the card and card cover to the rear of the TV.
Remember, unplug the TV to avoid electrical
shock damage to the TV.
Be sure to align the 32 pin connector before pressing into
place. Never force the ScanCard II into the connector. If it
will not go in smoothly, realign the guide pins and try
again.
Do not use the ScanCard II jacks to push the card
assembly into place. Push on the cover directly behind
the card itself.

combination antenna receives normal
broadcast channels (VHF 2-13 and UHF
14-69). Your connection is easy since there is
only one 75Ω (ohm) antenna plug on the
back of your TV - and that’s where the
antenna goes. (If you have more than one
antenna, please refer to the diagram at the
bottom of page 11 for additional hookups.)
If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm)
on the end, then you're ready to connect it to the
TV.
If your antenna has flat twin-lead wire (300
ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to
the screws on a 300 to 75 ohm adapter.
Push the round end of the adapter (or anten-
na) onto the RF IN plug on the rear of the TV. If
the round end of the antenna wire is threaded,
screw it down tight.
BEGIN
Remember, be sure to set the TV for the
type signal you've connected.
To set the TV to select only the channel numbers
in your area see how to “Program" or "Add" channels in memory.
To order any optional accessory contact your dealer or call the toll-free accessory ordering number
(1-800-292-6066):
• UHF/VHF Combiner: (SBV1133AO1)
• 75-300 Ohm Adapter: (SBV1113AO1)

our Cable TV input into your home may
be a single (75 ohm) cable, or a
Converter Box installation. In either case the
connection to the TV is very easy. Just put
the threaded end of the cable signal to the
TV's antenna plug and screw it down tight.
If your Cable TV signal is a single round
cable (75 ohm) then you're ready to connect to
the TV.
If you have a Cable TV Converter Box:
Connect the Cable TV signal to the Cable Signal
IN(put) plug on the Converter.
Connect the Cable TV cable to the RF IN
plug on the TV.
If you have a Cable TV Converter Box:
Connect the OUT(put) plug from the Converter to
the RF IN plug on the TV (connecting cable supplied with the Converter.)
BEGIN

VGA INPUTS
T
he main purpose of the ScanCardII is its
ability to convert VGA/SVGA inputted
data from a computer to S-Video data, thus
showing computer generated graphics on the
screen of a Philips SmartCard TV.
The following are suggested computer connections to the ScanCard II.
It is always a good idea to remove the TV’s,
and the computer’s, AC power cords from the
wall socket before beginning the connections.
The VGA Input accepts signals from VGA and
MAC compatible computers without the need for
any additional hardware.
For PC Applications: Plug the VGA cable into
the VGA Input terminal on the back of a commercial TV equipped with the Philips ScanCard II.
Then attach the other end of the VGA cable to the
VGA (RGB) Output on the back of the computer.
(Secure the plugs by tightening the thumb screws.)
Reattach the AC Power cords to the wall sockets
before powering on the units.
For Macintosh Applications: Connect the
MAC/VGA adapter to the RGB Output of a
Macintosh Series computer. Then firmly plug the
VGA cable into both the VGA Input on the TV and
the MAC/VGA adapter on the computer. (Secure
the plugs by tightening the thumb screws.)
Reattach the AC Power cords to the wall sockets
before powering on the units.
Please note: If using an educational 5200 series
Macintosh, the addition of a POWER R adapter
must be installed when making this connection.
Using the Channel ▼ button select one channel
below your lowest available broadcast channel to
access the VGA Inputs.

he ScanCard II assembly is equipped
with a RS 232 (Serial) Input. When a
computer’s Serial Port is hooked to the Scan
Card II through the RS 232 input, the computer can control the various functions of the
television. (Refer to SmarkLink specifications
available under DNA.)
It is always a good idea to remove the TV’s,
and the computer’s, AC power cords from the
wall socket before beginning the connections.
The RS 232 (Serial) Input accepts signals from
VGA and MAC compatible computers that have
external Serial Ports.
For PC/MACs with Serial Ports: Plug a
Serial cable into the RS 232 (Serial) Input terminal on the back of a commercial TV equipped
with the ScanCard II. Then attach the other end of
the Serial cable to the Serial Output Port on the
back of the computer. (Secure the plugs by tightening the thumb screws.)
