Glossary
RGB Signals :These are 3 Red,Green and Blue video signals which directly drive the red,green and
blue emitters in the cathode ray tube. Using these signals provides better picture quality.
NICAM sound :Process by which digital sound can be transmitted.
System :Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.There are different
standards:BG,DK,I,and L LO.The SYSTEM setting (p.6) is used to select these different standards.
This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding.Pal is used in most countries in
Europe,Secam in France,Russia and most African countries.The United States and Japan use a
different system called NTSC.
100Hz :Conventional televisions (50 Hz) produce a visible image flicker.Thanks to 100 Hz technology,
the scanning frequency is doubled. It is visually more comfortable and the flickering effect is
reduced.
16:9 :Refers to the ration between the length and height of the screen.
Wide screen televisions have a ration of 16/9, conventional screen TV sets have a ration of 4/3.
