Example of how to connect your equipment

Connecting your video components

Connecting a DVD player or LD player

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the device to the DVD IN VIDEO jack on the HT-R490.

If there is an S video output terminal on the DVD player or LD player, connect it to the DVD IN S VIDEO jack using an S video cable.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the DVD player or LD player to the audio DVD IN L/R jacks on the HT-R490. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

If the DVD player or LD player has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL jack on the HT-R490 depending on the type of connector on the DVD player or LD player.

With the initial settings of the HT-R490, the DVD input source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL jack. If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed (see page 12).

Connecting a video cassette recorder

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the video cassette recorder to the VIDEO 2 IN VIDEO jack on the HT-R490 and video input terminal to the VIDEO 2 OUT VIDEO jack.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the video cassette recorder to the same VIDEO 2 IN L/R jacks on the HT-R490 and audio input terminal to the VIDEO 2 OUT L/R jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

If the video cassette recorder has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL jack on the HT-R490 depending on the type of connector on the video cassette recorder.

With the initial settings of the HT-R490, the DIGITAL INPUT jack for the VIDEO 2 source is not assigned. If you connect the video cassette recorder to the DIGITAL INPUT jack, then this input source must be set for digital input at the DIGITAL INPUT button (see page 12).

Connecting a satellite tuner or television

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the satellite tuner or television to the VIDEO 1 IN VIDEO jacks on the HT-R490.

If there is an S video output terminal on the satellite tuner or television, connect it to the VIDEO 1 IN S VIDEO jack using an S video cable.

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the satellite tuner or television to the same VIDEO 1 IN L/R jacks on the HT-R490. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

If the satellite tuner or television has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL or COAXIAL jack on the HT-R490 depending on the type of connector on the satellite tuner or television.

With the initial settings of the HT-R490, the DIGITAL INPUT jack for the VIDEO 1 source is not assigned. If you connect the video cassette recorder to the DIGITAL INPUT jack, then this input source must be set for digital input at the DIGITAL INPUT button (see page 12).

Connecting a television monitor or projector

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video input terminal (composite) on the monitor to the MONITOR OUT VIDEO jack on the HT-R490.

If there is an S video input terminal on the monitor, connect it to the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO jack using an S video cable.
