Hitachi 57T600 Connecting External Video Sources, Before Operating External Video Source

Page 15

CONNECTING EXTERNAL VIDEO SOURCES

The exact arrangement you use to connect the VCR, camcorder, laserdisc player, DVD player, or HDTV Set Top Box to your TV set is dependent on the model and features of each component. Check the owner’s manual of each component for the location of video and audio inputs and outputs.

The following connection diagrams are offered as suggestions. However, you may need to modify them to accommodate your particu- lar assortment of components and features. For best performance, video and audio cables should be made from coaxial shielded wire.

Before Operating External Video Source

The input mode is changed every time the VID1~VID5 button is pressed as shown below. Connect an external source to the INPUT terminal, then press the VID1~VID5 button as necessary to view the input source (see page 30).

NOTE: 1. When the TV is set to VIDEO and a video signal is not received from the VIDEO INPUT JACK on the back panel of the TV (i.e., VCR/laserdisc player, etc. is not connected or the video device is OFF), the set will appear to be OFF.

2. You may select other Input sources by AV Net (see page 21) or by IEEE1394 (see page 20).

CONNECTING A MONAURAL AUDIO SOURCE TO INPUT2~INPUT5

1.Connect the cable from the VIDEO OUT of the VCR or the laserdisc player to the INPUT (VIDEO) jack, as shown on the TV set below.

2.Connect the cable from the AUDIO OUT of the VCR or the laserdisc player to the INPUT (MONO)/L(AUDIO) jack.

3.Press the VID2~VID5 button to view the program from the VCR or the laserdisc player. The VIDEO OSD label disappears automatically after approximately four seconds.

4.Press the ANT button to return to the previous channel.
