This standard defines minimum specifications for a one-way data path utilizing an 8 VSB trellis or a 16 VSB remodulator in compliance with ATSC Standard A/53, Annex D. This standard also defines on-screen display (OSD) capabilities. This standard applies to any type of device used to connect to an ATSC compliant digital television receiver (DTV) receiver. Devices meeting this standard should interoperate with any ATSC compliant receiver that also supports “monitor mode.” This standard addresses required RF output specifications, on-screen display (OSD) capabilities, and capability profiles for a DTV remodulator and recommendations concerning input to the remodulator. This standard does not address 8 VSB without OSD. For information concerning 8 VSB without OSD, see also CEA-762 and CEA-799.
