Appendix D: Playing the VP403C Video Clips and Picture
Images on an ATSC Display
The VP403C “VideoPro” outputs two moving video test signals on an ATSC-RF test signal. The
motion video
test clips feature colorful hot-air balloons or beautiful nature scenes from Hawaii.
The moving test signals highlight the performance of HD-ready displays after installation,
calibration or servicing. The clips are also excellent for testing and identifying artifacts related to
digital signal processing. The video clips are accompanied with a stereo audio signal.

The VP403C is a multimedia generator with multiple output signal types. It provides NTSC-RF,
NTSC and PAL composite video, NTSC and PAL S-video, SDTV/HDTV YPbPr component
video, SDTV/HDTV and VESA/MAC RGB, SDTV/HDTV and VESA/MAC DVI, and
SDTV/HDTV ATSC-RF test signal types.
The moving video test clips are available through the ATSC-RF output signal type. Connect the
RF test cable (Sencore Part #39G189) between the ATSC-RF output of the generator and the
ATSC input of the receiver. The receiver may call this an RF input or an antenna input.
Note: Check with the owner’s manual to be sure the receiver has a built-in ATSC digital tuner. If
it claims to include a digital cable or QAM tuner it also receives ATSC. Some ATSC receivers or
set-top-boxes (STB) may have more than one RF connector input. Check with the operations
manual to be sure the input you select is capable of tuning to off-air TV channel signals.
