2.2OUTPUTS: Video output exists for both Composite and S-Video formats, and both the Composite and S-Video outputs have On Screen Display and NO OSD. The On-Screen can be turned off and on. There is only a Composite video output for the remote Zone and both S-Video and Composite video outputs for recording. S- Video input also delivers a composite Video output. (S-Video In to S-Video Out will deliver higher quality video). There are both analog audio outputs and a digital audio output.

2.2.17.1 OUTPUTS: The 7.1 Outputs are to be used for the main room. They deliver both stereo and multi-channel signals, depending on the source signal and the mode of playback you choose. The left back, right back, or both back channels can be selected, but only the left back channel will be available when only one back speakers is setup.

2.2.2DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT: The Optical digital output (TOSlink) delivers the same digital audio information as it is present at the digital input of the selected source. Analog information will not be converted to digital for output here. This digital signal can be routed to another surround processor or to a high-quality DAC.

2.2.3REC AUDIO OUTPUTS: There are three record audio outputs. All output the analog audio input on the currently accessed Main Source. Digital Input is not decoded to these outputs.

2.2.3.1When deciding what input and output cable combinations you will need, you have to first decide how you will be using the processor. If you use the Remote Zone you can have two sources, each playing in a separate area. However, you cannot record one source while watching another, unless you utilize the Remote Zone output as a tape out. Be aware that to record a Satellite feed when you are listening to a decoded digital signal in the main area, you must have the analog two channel analog output from the Satellite receiver plugged into the same Source as the digital audio from the satellite receiver.

FOR EXAMPLE:

Digital (audio) information from Satellite Receiver is plugged into COAX1

COAX1 is assigned to AV1

Analog two channel output from satellite receiver is plugged into AV1 analog inputs

S-Video from the Satellite receiver is fed to VID1 S-Video input

Composite Video from Satellite Receiver is plugged into VID1 Composite Video input

Select AV1 as source for Main area

7.1 Main outputs will contain decoded digital audio from COAX1

Record outputs will contain signal only from analog inputs of AV1. Zone, (If Zone has selected AV1 as source) will also only have AV1 analog signal).

S-Video output from AV1 appears at S-Video OSD and NO OSD and at S-Video REC

Composite Video from AV1 appears at Composite OSD and NO OSD, plus REC and Zone Composite, (If Zone has selected AV1 as its source).

With only a little thought and planning you can turn the SSP-30 MKII into a strong control center. To record a source, or to play music throughout you house you will need to connect both the digital and the analog inputs from several audio or audio video pieces, such as a CD player, a Satellite receiver or a DVD player. See the Section on Taping.

2.3TRIGGER OUTPUTS: The three Triggers give you a great deal of control over your total system. Trigger 1 may be set up separately from Triggers 2 and 3. They may be individually set up to turn on and off various discreet, or chains of, other components. The Triggers only deliver voltage, but the delivery can be configured in several ways, to allow you to properly signal equipment to turn off and on. See Section 5.5 TRIGGER SETUP, for a full explanation.
