6. Performance Inspections
6.1 TV function
Enter the search menu →auto search, connect RF-TV terminal to the central signal source, check if
there is station skipping.
6.2 AV/S input terminal
Input AV/S signal, check the picture and sound is normal
6.3 SCART terminal (note: check the SCART terminal, set display mode to AUTO)
6.3.1 Check SCART INPUT special function
6.3.1.1 SCART1 terminal function
a. After turn on the unit, connect the SCART1 to PM54200 signal generator, then the unit auto
select to SCART1 mode.
b. SCART signal generator sends CVBS signal to the unit, check if the image and sound is
normal. It sends image format (16:9 and 4:3) to the unit, check if the unit auto identify is normal.
Change SCART signal to RGB signal, check if the image and sound is normal, It sends image format
(16:9 and 4:3) to the unit, check the unit auto identify is normal. Select the PIP mode, connect
earphone cable, and check if the sound is normal.
6.3.1.2 SCART2 terminal function
a. After turn on the unit, connect the SCART2 to PM54200 signal generator, then the unit auto
select to SCART2 AV mode.
b. SCART signal generator sends CVBS signal to the unit, check if the image and sound is
normal. It sends image format (16:9 and 4:3) to the unit, check if the unit auto identify is normal, and
display the SCART2 AV. Change SCART signal to Y/C signal, select the SCART2 Y/C channel mode,
check if the image and sound is normal, It sends image format (16:9 and 4:3) to the unit, check if the
unit auto identify is normal. Select the PIP mode, connect earphone cable, and check if the sound is

channel, the CART1 output TV signal, it can not other signal.
6.3.2.2 SCART2 terminal function
Input signal in the TV/AV/S states, connect the SCART2 terminal to the TV. Change the unit channel,
check if output signal of SCART2 is current signal, and the image and sound is normal.
6.4 YPbPr/YPbPr terminal Input the YUV signal (VG-848 signal generator), separate input YUV format
signal of table 1, check if the image and sound is normal. If the image is deflection of the H-field,
select auto sync correction of the SCREEN menu. If the image is slight disturb, adjust the FINE TUNE
correction of the SCREEN menu. Open the PIP mode, connect the earphone, and check if the image
and sound is normal.
