PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TYPICAL INSTALLATION
COMPONENT LOCATIONS
The Model CPDM-1 Digital Modulator converts any baseband
NTSC video and audio signal to a selected UHF or Ultraband
CATV channel. A quartz crystal reference oscillator and PLL
circuitry ensure drift-free performance.

Verify that the video source is on and is producing a video signal. Check that the TV and
the modulator are tuned to the same channel. For example, if the modulator is
broadcasting on UHF channel 16, make sure the TV is on UHF 16 rather than CATV 16.
UHF 16 and CATV 16 are at different frequencies.

CHANGING MODULATION STANDARDS
WEAK MODULATOR UHF CHANNEL
Most cable services use IRC frequency assignments. This is the default
setting for the modulator. However, if the cable service uses HRC or the
TV appears to search for the "house channels", the modulator can be
reprogrammed to use HRC assignments.

IM DISTORTION
You may have chosen a channel number that is not completely vacant. Distant UHF
stations may be un-watchable, but will cause interference if you try to create a new
channel at the same frequency. Also, cable companies often have extra signals where
there should be none. Try moving the modulator channel to another number. You may
have to add a low pass filter to remove cable company noise.

FCC NOTICE !!!
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
FCC classifies this product under Part 15 of its rules as a “television interface device”. Systems
designed using television interface devices have the following legal requirements:
1) The modulated channel signal strength may not exceed 15.56 dBmV at any television.
Federal Regulation 47CFR15.115(b)(1)(i).
