Connections and initial set up

The connections proposed on page 3 permit the rapid connection of your DTH 8000 and ensure optimum sound, visual quality (RGB) and standards. Depending on the sockets available on your other devices or to benefit from the maximum performance of your DTH 8000 you may make other connections.The DTH 8000 has other sockets for this purpose.

Sockets and cables (inputs)

1 - Audio inputs (INPUT L, R)

The analogue sound of an operating device (television set or amplifier) can be input via the 2 Audio sockets L and R of your DTH 8000. If you do not use the recommended connection, i.e. the Peritel (Scart) socket, you must, as well as the video connections (CVBS or S-VIDEO) connect the outputs Audio L and R of the operating device to the Audio L and R inputs of your DTH 8000.

Note: the audio sockets and cables are generally identified by a colour code (red for the left channel and white for the right).

2 – Video in - Composite (CVBS) (COMPOSITE VIDEO INPUT)

The yellow video socket also known as composite video (or CVBS): the image quality provided by this socket is less than all the other video sockets. Only use this socket if all the other sockets are already in use.

3 - S-Video input (Y/C) (S-VIDEO IN)

The S-Video signal is of a lesser quality than that of the RGB signal supplied by the Peritel (Scart) socket.The S-Video signal however gives a better image quality than the composite video socket (C) since black and white (Y) are separated from colour in the video signal.

Note: do not forget to connect the audio cables since the S-Video cable transmits only images, not sound.
