F1 - POWER/ERROR Indicator

Lights when the unit is connected to the

required source of DC power via the rear panel

DC INPUT connector. A flashing condition

indicates an invalid channel setting or other

conditions that would cause the unit to operate

on an invalid channel. The RF output is

switched off for flashing (ERROR) conditions.

F2 - AUDIO Level Control

The setting of this screwdriver adjustment

determines the aural carrier deviation. Clock-

wise rotation increases the carrier deviation.

F3 - VIDEO Level Control

The setting of this screwdriver adjustment

determines the video modulation level. CW

rotation increases the modulation depth.

F4 - Channel Number Switch

Sets the desired operating channel for standard

CATV channels 02 through 135 or Broadcast

TV channels 02 through 69. See also Item F5

which sets the type of channel (CATV or

Broadcast TV) and sets the leading "1" for

CATV channels 100 through 135.

F5 - Mode Switch

Sets the type of channel, CATV or Broadcast

TV ("BC TV"). The first position of the switch

("+100") sets a leading "1" for CATV channels

100 through 135. See also Item F4 for setting

the channel. Here are two examples:

F6 - A/V Ratio Control

This screwdriver adjustment varies the level of

the aural carrier over a range from 12 to 22 dB

below the visual carrier. Typically, the aural

carrier should be adjusted to approximately 15

dB below the visual carrier. Clockwise rotation

increases the aural carrier level.

F7 - RF Output Level

This screwdriver adjustment permits adjustment

of the RF output level over a minimum of 10 dB

range. Maximum output is at full CW.

F8 - P. LK (Pilot Lock)

This LED indicates that the BTSC circuitry in

the VMM860AS has locked to the video sync

reference.

F9 - Audio Overmodulation

This LED illuminates when the audio input level

reaches full modulation. Set F2 for just an

occasional flicker. (VMM860AS)

F10 - Video Overmodulation

This LED illuminates at 87.5% video modula-

tion. Advance F3 CW until F10 just lights then

back off until F10 just goes out. (VMM860AS)
