These clips are for making the guns go to cut off to have different colour
screens active. These are no longer used on the new generation of sets. If
you connect these clips to a modern set's CRT, you will do some damage to
the driver devices that drive the CRT guns.

The RF output is where the pattern is transmitted from. Most of these
generators were working on channel 3 or channel 4. You will probably find
that the resolution of the test patterns are not up to the standards of
today's generators for the modern sets, but it may allow you to do a basic
convergence alignment.

Hello,
It has been a while since I aligned a TV
receiver and I was looking for a little
refresher on using a pattern generator.
I am using a Conar test pattern generator.
Coming out the back there is an antenna
terminal clip labelled "RF" and also 4
allegator clips with red, green, blue
and black rubber insulation on them.
I think they are labeled "Guns".
With the "RF" clip on the antenna
terminals I get a blank black raster.
My quandry is I can't recall how to
connect the 4 allegator clips to drive
the individual guns.
BTW: The receiver is a Sony KV-1913.
Thanks for any help.
Carl
