Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Player Connection

Use this diagram to connect the Panasonic DTV-STB (Digital TV-Set-Top Box) to the back of your TV.

ENGLISH

VCRs, video disc players, video game equipment, and DSS equipment can also be connected to the video inputs. See the optional equipment manual for more information.

Note: VIDEO 1 input is a dual-purpose input. It is primarily intended for connection with 480i devices such as a DVD player using the Y PB PR component video jacks and Audio L & R jacks. However, it can also be connected to conventional composite video sources such as a VCR, using only the Y/Video jack and Audio L & R jacks. The on-screen label will display Component or Video 1 depending on which source is connected.
