G lossary to T ki . evision T erms
A/W Inputs * Connector plugs which allow the introduction of distinct
audio and video signals into the TV from accessory VCRs, camcorders,
etc. These plugs bypass the normal tuner or RF/Antenna signal circuitry.
Coaxial Cable * A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a
metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly onto a
75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.
Display * An on screen message or graphics that help the user operate and
adjust his Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays (OSD).
Direct Audio/Video Inputs * Located on the rear of the TV these
connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and
video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in order
to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound coimection options.
Identify* Method by which a remote control searches and finds an
operating code for another product (such as a VCR or Cable Converter).
Once the code has been "identified" then the TV remote can operate and
send commands to the other product.
Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) * The broadcast standard that
allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.
On Screen Displays (OSD) * Refers to the wording or messages
generated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature
controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).
Menu * An on-screen listing of feature controls shown on the Television
screen that are made available for user adjustments.
Picture -In-Picture (PIP) * Term used when two pictures are shown on
the TV screen at the same time. The smaller PIP picture is supplied by a
VCR (or other tuner/video playback source). The PIP picture can also be
moved and swapped with the TV's main screen picture.
Programming * The procedure of adding or deleting channel
numbers into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the
Television “remembers” only the locally available or desired
channel numbers and skips over any unwanted channel numbers.
Remote Sensor Window * A window or opening found on the
Television control panel through which Infrared remote control
command signals are received.
Second Audio Program (SAP) * Another or additional audio
channel provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS)
broadcast standard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the
simultaneous bilingual broadcast of TV program material.
Status * Allows the user to quickly confirm what channel number is
currently being viewed. Status can also be used to clear the
Television of on screen displays or information (rather than waiting
for the displays to “time out” or automatically disappear from the
screen).
S-Video Input * Allows direct connection of high-resolution video
sources, such as a Super VHS videocassette recorder. Laser Disc
player, etc. Provides optimum picture resolution, sharpness, and
clarity.
Twin Lead Wire * The more commonly used name for the two
strand 300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor
antenna systems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an
additional adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input
terminals designed into the more recent Televisions and VCRs.
Variable Audio Output * TAn adjustable audio output which
allows for volume variations at the source.
