Video connections

Three types of video connections can be made to the 640R:

1.Composite - connect with single 75 ohm video phono cable (RCA- RCA).

2.S-Video - connect with S-Video cable.

3.Component - connect with 75 ohm Component video cables (3RCA- 3RCA).

For best picture quality we recommend making Component video connections, then in declining order of quality, S-Video connections and then Composite video connections.

HDMI connections

HDMI (High-Definition Multi-Media Interface) is a new all digital connection that can carry both audio and video in one cable. Direct digital transfer of video and support for various types of High Definition video content make this the best connection type for picture quality. The 3 HDMI inputs can be assigned to DVD, Video 1, Video 2 and Recorder 1 (see the “Assigning HDMI sources” section for more information).

The 640R routes the HDMI outputs of DVD players, set-top boxes etc to the TV/Monitor without any internal processing. Consult both the source and TV's manuals to find out how to set the best modes for best picture quality. As the 640R only routes/switches HDMI it is not involved in these settings itself.

The sources will also normally supply audio to the TV/Monitor over the HDMI connection, this will be separate from the audio that the 640R decodes.

In order for the 640R itself to receive audio (Including surround-sound) from HDMI (or DVI) sources a Co-axial (SPDIF) or Optical (Toslink) digital audio connection must be made from each source to the 640R.

DVI switching can be supported simply by using DVI to HDMI adaptors as these two connection types are compatible. When using DVI only video will be passed to the TV/Monitor. Again a Co-axial (SPDIF) or Optical (Toslink) digital audio connection must be made from each source to the 640R for it to be able to receive audio and decode surround sound etc.
