Sony KP-5000 Color Video Projector

Introduction

The Channel Indicators 2 through 13 are pre-adjusted at the factory to VHF channels 2-13. This results in blank positions interspersed with regular TV channels. Those positions may be used to receive local TV stations in your area. Any channel position can be set up to receive any local station, VHF or UHF.

Parts & Controls

For 72-Inch screen

2-1 Install the extension arms into the fittings and secure with the two 8 mm dia. longer wing screws (supplied). Install the crosspiece and the four 4 mm dia. wing nuts (supplied).  Leave the nuts loose. After the following 2-2 procedure, secure the nuts.

Engage the hooks on the rear of the screen with the support rod.

To secure the stability of the apparatus nstall the support assembly at the rear bottom of the projector and secure it with the two 8mm dia. wing screws supplied as illustrated.

Power Connection

The KP-5000 and KP-7200 operate on 120V, 60Hz. Connect the Power Cord (rear) to a 3-wire 120V ac wall outlet.

• Antenna Connection: For the best TV reception, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connections

VHF Antenna Terminals

When using 300-ohm ribbon-type lead-in wire, set the Terminal Switch to the 300 S position. To connect the wire to the VHF antenna terminals, strip the plastic insulation from the end of the lead-in wire, loosen the nuts on the terminals, wrap the bare copper leads around the terminals, then tighten the nuts. When using 75-ohm coaxial cable, set the Terminal Switch to 75 N. The connection can be made with an optional type F antenna connector.

UHF Antenna Terminals

The Terminal Switch does not affect this connection. The connection to the UHF antenna terminals can be made in the same manner as explained for the VHF antenna connection. For UHF antennas using 75-ohm coaxial cable, the EAC-13W External Antenna Connector (optional) permits convenient connection. This plugs directly into the UHF terminals and accepts an op tional type F connector.

Registration Adjustment

After transporting the set from one place to another, the red, green, and blue lines may not be superimposed. If this symptom is noticed, perform the registration adjustment yourself. Should the difficulty persist, contact your Sony dealer.

Suppose that the following channels are active in your city: VHF: Channels 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 UHF: Channels 21, 25, 31, 41, and 47 • Then the positions would be arranged (in numerical order for convenience) as follows: Enter your channel numbers below.
