OPERATION - AV Control Functions
1. Source Selection
To select any of the four sources directly, press one of the remote control keys listed below:
• TV (Built-in TV Tuner)
• DVD (External DVD input)
• VCR (External VCR input)
• AUX (External AUX input)
2. Monitor Selection
Up to a maximum of 3 monitors can be connected to the TCS-V430A. Monitor 1ST is
dedicated to Alpine’s Overhead Monitors through a proprietary mini-DIN connector.
This connector carries both video and stereo audio channels. However, a separate DIN-
to-RCA adapter is included to interface with any type of NTSC monitor. Monitors 2ND
and 3RD are standard NTSC compatible outputs along with RCA-type, Left and Right
audio outputs.
Pressing any of the monitor keys once, will activate the functions for that monitor.
Repeated pressing will cycle through all of the sources for that monitor, without having
to use the SOURCE keys.
Changing Sources
There are several ways to change the source displayed on each of the monitors. Press any of the
MONITOR keys. The output to which the monitor is connected and the current source being
displayed will be shown in its OSD (On Screen Display) for about 8 seconds.
• Direct AV Source Selection
While the OSD is active, pressing any of the SOURCE keys will change the source for
the currently selected monitor. If no further keys are pressed for at least 8 seconds, the
OSD will automatically turn off and the last selection will remain active.
For example:
1) Press Monitor 2ND [A] (assume it is currently displaying the TV video)
2) The Monitor connected to the the 2ND output will display “MONITOR 2: TV”
3) Before its OSD turns off, Press any of the SOURCE keys [B] (DVD, VCR,
AUX) to change from TV to the desired source (DVD for this example).
