Scientists, engineers and everyone connected with the development of
electronic products are constantly searching for the "magic"
' component or the exciting idea that will set their work apart from all
others. Philips people have done it.
their
Philips Modular 4 Chassis
This is the result of many years'of research, testing, experimenting and
development. It was developed. by Canadian engineers and is built by
' Canadian craftsmen. The Philips Modular 4 has created much
excitement in the laboratories where it was developed and we are sure
you will share in thisexcitement when you finally realize the value of this
technological' breakthrough and what it mearis.to you: a color television '
that's reliable, durable and will delivera true -to -fife picture of.a"quality
you never dreamed possible. See it. Compare it.
What IsModuiar 4?
Modular 4 is what we came up withafter completely building the. hilips..
Color TV from the inside out. We re -designed the circuitry, to glive you a /
more efficient more reliable operation. We eliminated the old
spaghetti-tYpe.wiring systems by condensing them into units/that can
And since each circuit panel stands on,its.ow.n, if.so'mething goes wrong
it can be replaced within minutes right in your home. •,'
01 course, such an efficient operation just naturally results in
great color pic ure.. . ,
better stand up to continual, full-time viewing.
Features::
• Automatic Fine Tuning
Majces tuning child's play. Press the A.F.T. button and colors snap into
sharp focus.
Automatic Horizontnt•Hold
Some television pictures -have a tendency to flop on their sides. That
means you get up to set-it-rig,h't.'Philips doesn't let it happen. The circuit
controlling this problem prevents it....,.,,-
Automati6 Voltage Regulator -Prevents Power Damage
Special resistors (monitrons) eliminate power surges and drain that
makes pictures "bloom" out of focus or shrink to a smallersize. Not
letting it,happen is protection from damage of expensive components,
including the picture tube.
Automatic Color Control
Keeps the whites in line. Doesn't let bright white areas overpower colors. •
Keeps colors true to life, well contrasted, automatically: •
Automatic Degaussing n •
Magnetism that normally plays havoc with color receivers doesn't have
• a chance with Philips built-in degaussing circuit.
Personal Preference Controls
Everyone sees things differently. So Philips makes it possible for you,. ,
to adjust color performance to suit your rsonal taste."
Crisper Switch
This is a three -position switch that'allo 'you to change the actual
crispness of the overall picture instantly from soft to full crispness. ro
Scrotint
T e important color in a tet vision picture is flesh tones. Sometimes the
flesh tone Will Shift due to tr nsmitter error. Flesh tones become tainted
by purple or green. You can change that situation immediately with the
Syncro`tlnt switch,
Convenient Thumb Wheel Controls
Just to make it much easier for you, Philips built smoothly adjusting
thumb wheels for major control functions. •
Service Is A Snap
The Philips Modular 4 chassis is a marvel of electronic
craftsmanship and engineering skill. It has been tested and'
perfected. It has also been designed so thatif problems do
occur, the servicing of the chassis is a snap. The modular
concept makes it possible. The technician simply has to locate
the fault in one of the four circuit panels and replace it with a
new one. To do so, he "unplugs" the defective unit
and snaps in the new one.
