14. Lightning — For added protection for this TV/  
VCR receiver during a lightning storm, or when it  
is left unattended and unused for long periods of  
time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon-  
nect the antenna or cable system. This will pre-  
vent damage to the TV/VCR due to lightning and  
power-line surges.  
e. When the TV/VCR exhibits a distinct  
change in performance — this indicates a  
need for service.  
20. Replacement Parts — When replacement parts  
are required, be sure the service technician has  
used replacement parts, specified by the manu-  
facturer, that have the same characteristics as  
the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may  
result in fire, electric shock, injury to persons or  
other hazards.  
15. Power Lines — An outside antenna system  
should not be located in the vicinity of overhead  
power lines or other electric light or power cir-  
cuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or  
circuits. When installing an outside antenna sys-  
tem, extreme care should be taken to keep from  
touching such power lines or circuits as contact  
with them might be fatal.

FEATURES  
Your Model 29/Model 30 Color TV with Built-In  
VHS VCR combines a versatile color TV/monitor  
and a VCR in one space-saving cabinet. The TV/  
VCR receives TV programs and plays video  
tapes. It also records onto video tapes from TV  
programs or an audio/video source you connect  
to it.  
Please read this owner’s manual carefully. It has  
been prepared to assist you with initial setup  
procedures and to guide you in the TV/VCR’s  
everyday operation.  
GENERAL  
Automatic/Manual Clock Setting — lets you  
set the TV/VCR to automatically update its clock  
using EDS (Extended Data Service) signals  
broadcast by certain stations. You can also  
manually set the clock.  
Note: EDS is a service provided by some broad-  
casters to transmit various types of information  
including the current time. If no broadcasters in  
your area transmit EDS signals, automatic clock  
setting will not work.  
Station Display — automatically displays sta-  
tion identification call letters if a station transmits  
them.  
Automatic DST (Daylight Saving Time) Ad-  
justment — lets you set the TV/VCR to auto-  
matically adjust the time for Daylight Saving  
Time.  
Remote Control — provides remote access to  
most of the tape-motion and TV controls.  
Note: Your TV/VCR’s remote control requires  
two AA batteries (not included) for operation.  
Rear Audio/Video Input Jacks — let you  
quickly connect an audio/video device such as a

16-421.fm Page 5 Tuesday, July 20, 1999 12:01 PM  
Automatic Playback/Rewind/Eject — makes  
playback easy when you load a video cassette  
tape because it automatically plays, rewinds,  
and then, if the erase protection tab has been  
removed, ejects it.  
Note: Most material performed in public, such  
as concerts, plays, and movies, or distributed on  
prerecorded video tapes, is copyrighted. The  
unauthorized recording or duplication of copy-  
righted material is a violation of the copyright  
laws of most countries and such duplication may  
result in fines and/or imprisonment. Note, how-  
ever, that in the United States, it is not a violation  
of U.S. copyright laws for a consumer to record  
a broadcast television program for private (in-  
home) viewing.  
Freeze-Frame — lets you temporarily stop the  
action and view a single frame.  
Auto Repeat — lets you set the TV/VCR to au-  
tomatically repeat a tape when it reaches the  
end or a blank spot on the tape during playback.  
Fast-Forward/Reverse with Visual Search —  
helps you easily find a selection on the tape, and  
lets you quickly move the tape through recorded  
material you want to skip.  
Real-Time Counter with Memory — lets you  
select and easily return to a specific point on the  
tape.  
One-Minute Skip — lets you quickly skip over  
unwanted portions of a recording such as com-  
mercials.  
TUNING  
179-Channel Capability, Digital PLL (Phase-  
Locked Loop) Tuner — offers a broad range of  
viewing choices and a clear, sharp picture.  
Tuner Memory Programming — automatically  
stores all the active channels in your area into  
memory. You can also manually program the  
tuner’s memory, which makes it easy to add  
new channels when you move the TV/VCR to  
another area, or delete channels you do not  
want.  
For your records, we recommend you record the  
TV/VCR’s model number and serial number  
here. The numbers are on the back panel.

tion functions.  
MOISTURE CONDENSATION  
Condensation inside the TV/VCR can cause  
tape jams or video head damage. When you first  
install your TV/VCR, or when you move it from a  
cold area to a warm one, let it sit for about 2  
hours before you plug it in and begin operation.  
This allows complete evaporation of any mois-  
ture inside the TV/VCR that could damage it.  
• “Recording” on Page 26 describes the  
different types of recordings and gives  
instructions for making each.  
• “Additional Information” on Page 32 —  
includes a troubleshooting section, care  
and maintenance procedures, FCC infor-  
mation, information on servicing your TV/  
VCR, and specifications.

CONNECTIONS  
Before using your TV/VCR for the first time, read  
through this entire section to determine which  
connections best meet your needs. Then follow  
the directions for completing the connections.  
• If the antenna uses 300-ohm twin-lead  
cable, use 300-to-75-ohm matching  
transformer (not supplied) to make the con-  
nection.  
a
Note: You can connect many different types of  
audio/video systems such as a stereo receiver/  
amplifier, a satellite receiver, or a combination  
of a cable system and outside antenna to your  
TV/VCR. These connections might require ad-  
ditional supplies that are available from your lo-  
cal RadioShack store.  
VHF/UHF  
Matching Transformer  
VHF/UHF Terminal  
Antenna Cable  
CHOOSING A LOCATION  
• If you have separate VHF and UHF anten-  
nas, connect the antenna cables to a split-  
ter/combiner (such as RadioShack Cat. No.  
15-1296). Then connect the splitter/com-  
biner’s output to the VHF/UHF terminal.  
Choose a location for your TV/VCR where:  
• Air flows freely on all sides of the TV/VCR.  
• The power cord is not in the way of normal  
traffic.  
Refer to your antenna’s installation instructions  
for additional information.  
CONNECTING THE SIGNAL  
SOURCE  
Connecting to a Cable System  
You can connect either an outdoor antenna or  
the cable from your cable service provider.  
Note to the CATV system installer:  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV sys-  
tem installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the  
National Electrical Code that provides guide-  
lines for proper grounding and, in particular,  
specifies that the cable ground shall be connect-  
ed to the grounding system of the building, as  
close to the point of cable entry as practical.  
Connecting an Outdoor Antenna  
Connect the antenna to the VHF/UHF terminal on  
the back of the TV/VCR. If you do not have a TV  
antenna yet, use a high-quality outdoor anten-  
na, available at your local RadioShack store.  
Caution: Some areas have laws restricting di-  
rect connections to cable wires (connections  
that do not go through the cable box). Check the  
laws in your area before making any connec-  
tions.  
• If the antenna uses 75-ohm coaxial cable,  
connect the antenna’s cable directly to the  
TV/VCR’s VHF/UHF terminal.  
VHF/UHF Terminal  
Antenna Cable  
To receive cable channels, connect your local  
cable system to the TV/VCR as follows.

nels, displayed as 1 125. Channels 2-13 are the  
same for VHF and cable TV, and cable compa-  
nies usually number them as they appear on the  
TV screen. For other channels, the cable ser-  
vice’s channel designations might not match the  
channel numbers that appear on the TV screen.  
CONNECTING POWER  
When you have completed all other connec-  
tions, plug the TV/VCR’s power cord into a stan-  
dard AC outlet.  
For more information, contact your cable com-  
pany. You might need to experiment to deter-  
mine the proper cable channel designations for  
your cable system.  
Warning: For your protection, the power cord  
has a polarized plug. To prevent blade expo-  
sure, be sure the blades fit fully and easily into  
the outlet. If you do not have a polarized outlet,  
have a qualified electrician install one before  
you use the TV/VCR.  
Note: When you plug in the TV/VCR within 24  
hours after a power failure, the TV/VCR starts to  
search for a channel that uses an Extended  
Data Service (EDS) signal (see “Setting the On-  
Screen Language/Channels/Clock” on Page  
12).

SETUP  
Installing Batteries  
FRONT PANEL  
The remote control requires two AA batteries  
(not supplied). For the longest operation and  
best performance, we recommend alkaline bat-  
teries (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557).  
The buttons on the TV/VCR’s front panel control  
the TV and the VCR.  
Cautions:  
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size  
and type.  
• Never leave dead batteries in the remote  
control. Batteries can leak chemicals that  
can damage electronic circuits.  
• Dispose of dead batteries promptly and  
properly; do not bury or burn them.  
1. Press down on the battery compartment  
cover’s tab and lift off the cover.

RECORDING  
Tape Selection  
GENERAL INFORMATION  
The quality of tape you use greatly affects  
record/playback quality and the life of the TV/  
VCR. High-grade tape has a better oxide coat-  
ing that helps prevent dirty video heads and  
gives the best results. Use only video cassettes  
You can use the following methods to record  
with your TV/VCR.  
• Immediate recording  
• Quick timer recording  
• Automatic timer recording  
• Dubbing  
that display the official  
logo.  
Although T-160 video cassettes offer the long-  
est recording time, they contain thinner tape that  
is more likely to jam. We suggest you use T-120  
or shorter length tape.  
Notes:  
• Your TV/VCR automatically records the  
audio signal and adjusts the sound level  
while it records.  
The following chart shows the maximum record-  
ing times for different-length tapes at the three  
recording speeds.  
• The video tape you use for recording must  
have the erase-protection tab in place. If  
the tab is removed, the TV/VCR automati-  
cally ejects the tape if you try to record on it  
(see “Erase Protection”).

Recording Speeds  
Erase Protection  
There are three VHS recording speeds: SP  
(standard play), LP (long play), and SLP (super  
long play).  
Video cassettes have an erase-protection tab to  
prevent accidental erasure. To prevent record-  
ing on a tape, break off the tab using a screw-  
driver. The cassette automatically ejects if you  
try to record on the tape.  
SP (standard play) is the fastest recording  
speed and results in the highest quality picture,  
but uses the most tape.  
If you want to record on a video cassette that  
has had its tab removed, put a piece of heavy  
plastic tape over the erase-protection tab hole.  
LP (long play) records more slowly than SP but  
more quickly than SLP. LP provides a better  
quality picture than SLP and uses less tape than  
SP.  
SLP (super long play) records more slowly and  
uses less tape, but the picture quality is not as  
high as with a recording made at the SP speed.  
Note: The TV/VCR plays back tapes at the  
speed in which they were recorded.

Timer Recording Hints  
• If there is a power failure or the TV/VCR is  
unplugged for more than 60 seconds, the  
clock setting and all timer settings are  
cleared.  
DUBBING (COPYING) A TAPE  
The process of recording from one audio/video  
device to another is called dubbing.  
• The TV/VCR can record only one broad-  
cast at a time. If you program the TV/VCR’s  
timer to record broadcasts on different  
channels that start at the same time, the  
TV/VCR records the broadcast with the  
lowest program number.  
You can connect a VCR, camcorder, satellite re-  
ceiver, or other device with audio and video out-  
puts to the TV/VCR (see “Connecting an  
External Device” on Page 10), then use your TV/  
VCR to record the signal from the dubbing  
source.  
• If automatic timers overlap, the one that  
starts first has priority. When the first pro-  
gram ends, the TV/VCR switches to record  
the remainder of the second program.  
Note: For the best results while dubbing, hold  
the remote control close to the TV/VCR’s infra-  
red window when you press a button. Other-  
wise, the remote control might affect the  
dubbing source’s operation.  
Checking/Changing Program Timers  
If a timer recording has not yet started, follow  
these steps to check/change a program timer.  
1. Insert a blank cassette, or one that you  
want to record over, into the cassette com-  
partment. The TV/VCR turns on.

Modifying or tampering with the TV/VCR’s inter-  
nal components can cause a malfunction and  
might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC  
authorization to operate it. If your TV/VCR is not  
performing as it should, take it to your local Ra-  
dioShack store for assistance.  
CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Your Optimus Model 29 13” Color TV with Built-  
In VHS VCR/Model 30 20” Color TV with Built-In  
VHS VCR is an example of superior design and  
craftsmanship. The following suggestions will  
help you care for your TV/VCR so you can enjoy  
it for years.  
THE FCC WANTS YOU TO  
KNOW  
Keep the TV/VCR dry. If it gets  
wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-  
uids can contain minerals that  
corrode electronic circuits.  
Your TV/VCR might cause TV or radio interfer-  
ence even when it is operating properly. To de-  
termine whether your TV/VCR is causing the  
interference, turn off your TV/VCR. If the inter-  
ference goes away, your TV/VCR is causing it.  
Try to eliminate the interference by:  
Use and store the TV/VCR only  
in normal temperature environ-  
ments. Temperature extremes  
can shorten the life of electronic  
devices, damage batteries, and  
distort or melt plastic parts.  
• Moving your TV/VCR away from the  
receiver  
• Connecting your TV/VCR to an outlet that  
is on a different electrical circuit from the  
receiver  
• Contacting your local RadioShack store for  
help  
Use only fresh batteries of the  
recommended size and type in  
the remote control. Always re-  
move old or weak batteries. They  
can leak chemicals that can dam-  
age electronic circuits.  
If you cannot eliminate the interference, the  
FCC requires that you stop using your TV/VCR.  
RESETTING THE TV/VCR’S  
MEMORY  
Handle the TV/VCR gently and  
carefully. Dropping it can dam-  
age circuit boards and cases,  
and cause it to work improperly.  
You can clear all settings from the TV/VCR’s  
memory at once. This is handy if you want to  
load new channels into the TV/VCR’s memory.  
To reset the TV/VCR’s memory, eject the cas-  
sette tape (if loaded), then press and hold down  
Keep the TV/VCR away from  
dust and dirt, which can cause  
premature wear of parts.  
PLAY/REPEAT  
REW  
on the front of the  
both  
and  
TV/VCR for at least 5 seconds. The TV/VCR  
shuts itself off, and the settings are erased.  
Wipe the TV/VCR with a damp  
CLEANER  
cloth occasionally to keep it look-  
ing new. Do not use harsh chem-  
icals, cleaning solvents, or strong  
detergents to clean it.

CLEANING THE VIDEO HEADS  
Dirty video heads cause the playback picture to blur, even if the recorded signal is clear. However,  
video head cleaning is a delicate operation that requires a trained technician. For more head cleaning  
information, contact your local RadioShack store.  
Have the video heads cleaned only when picture quality is affected.  
DEGAUSSING  
Your TV/VCR has an automatic degaussing circuit. The circuit functions each time you turn the pow-  
er off. However, strong magnetism from nearby appliances might affect the TV/VCR’s picture. If  
this happens, turn the power off for 1 minute, then turn it back on. If the TV/VCR’s picture is still  
affected, move the TV/VCR away from the appliance.

STORING VIDEO CASSETTES  
Unless you are making a timer recording, eject and store the cassette when you finish using it.  
This helps protect the cassette and the TV/VCR’s internal mechanisms from dust.  
Place your video cassettes in their protective boxes and store them in a cool, dry, dust-free environ-  
ment. Store the cassettes on end, not on their sides. This prevents improper settling of the cassette’s  
spools.  
Tape can become wound too tightly around the cassette’s spools after you play a tape several times.  
This can cause the cassette to improperly load and automatically eject when you insert it. On most  
cassettes there is a brake-release plunger on the bottom center of the cassette. Use the tip of a pen  
or pencil to press the plunger. This loosens the tape.
