The Video Output Interface 13254A available on the HP 264X terminals cannot be connected to a standard TV monitor There are a number of reasons why this is so First will list the interface problems associated with connecting a standard TV monitor to our terminals Next will discuss these differences and last will list all the monitors that meet our requirements The interface problems are readily noted Std 264X Monitor Specifications Horizontal Scan Rate 15 750 Hz 22 500 Hz Vertical Retrace 1300 secs lt 600 psecs Time Interlaced Composite RS170 Video Level Non Interlaced Not RS170 Composite Video Level Number of Horizontal 262 5 375 Refresh Lines These are the major differences which make the interfacing of the HP 264X terminal to a standard monitor impossible without substantial modification The terminals are designed for high resolution character crispness and display stability To achieve this the above specifications were built into the HP 264X terminals Note that the resolution of the terminal is 2 3 times better and the vertical retrace time is twice as fast as the standard TV monitor Also since there are more horizontal lines 375 vs 262 5 on the terminal some data would be lost in going to a standard monitor Thus the factors that provide us with a superior product are also the factors that inhibit our interfacing with a standard display monitor To maintain the quality of the display you must use
