Abstract: The introduction of color television has imposed stringent requirements on the performance of networks and transmitters, while, at the same time, steady progress towards achieving a nationwide two-channel coverage on UHF has necessitated a considerable increase in the number of transmitting stations. The use of improved techniques permits unattended operation of many of the transmitters and provides improved reliability with a significant decrease in installation and operating costs. This paper deals only with the automatic monitoring of unattended operation and describes, in broad outline, equipment which has been developed for monitoring and executive control purposes, both at transmitters and other strategic points on the network. Associated with the monitoring function is the transmission of appropriate data and mention is also made of the various data transmission systems which have been developed for this purpose.
