• Picture and sound quality is influenced by the use of microwave ovens. Other wireless systems (Bluetooth, wireless LANs, etc.) can also adversely influence the quality of picture and sound, and vice versa.
• The Wireless TV Link is a Radio Frequency (RF) based product. As such its performance can suffer the same kinds of interference as GSMs, portable radios and other RF-based products.
• If the same video source is selected for both TVs, then you get the same programme on each TV.
• The Wireless TV link is not limited to just one room or house. You can use it anywhere in or around the house. Consequently, anybody in the vicinity of your house (up to the maximum operating range) who also owns a Wireless TV link set to the same channel, can watch the same programmes that are playing on your video source.
• In order to prevent the mixing of remote control commands it is not advisable to use a TV as a video source.
• Some built-in VCRs (TV-VCR combination) cannot be used with the transmitter unit (depends on brand and type).
• Video sources cannot be controlled remotely if the carrier frequency of the IR signal is outside the operation window of 32kHz to 57kHz.
• Radio wave safety: When switched on, the Philips Wireless TV Link transmits and receives radio waves.The Philips Wireless TV Link complies with the standards that are defined for it.
• The transmitter unit can support the channel downloading feature (also known as ‘Follow-TV’, ‘Easylink’, ‘SmartLink’, ‘AV-Link’, ‘MEGALogic’, ‘TV-Link’ or ‘Q-Link’) of high-end TVs and VCRs. Fully wired SCART cables that support this feature must be used.
• The Philips Wireless TV Link has an operating range of up to 100 metres in open air. Walls, ceilings and other large objects may limit the useable operating range to about 30 metres in the house. Technical specifications General Video standards supported: Power supply: Operating consumption:
