Video 1-5 Audio Inputs, Composite Video Inputs

There are also video record outputs (described in a following section) which correspond to three of the video source inputs – Video 1, 2, and 3). For this reason, you should plan ahead and designate each source component as Video 1, Video 2, etc. All connections (both input and output) from a source component must be made consistently to the same set of connections. For example, all input and out- put connections to a particular VCR could be made to Video 1 connectors.

Also, be sure that the channels are connected consistently, i.e. left channel signals connected to left channel inputs/outputs and right chan- nel signals connected to right channel inputs/ outputs.

NOTE: These video source inputs can also be used for additional audio-only sources, omit- ting the video signal connections.

VIDEO 1–5 Audio Inputs

Using standard audio interconnect cables, connect the left and right channel analog au- dio outputs of VCRs or other source compo- nents to the VIDEO 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 inputs using standard RCA audio cables.

VIDEO 1–5

Composite Video Inputs

If you use the RCA composite video connec- tions for a source component, connect the RCA video output of the source component to one of the video inputs labeled COMPOSITE IN. Use a standard 75 ohm video cable.

VIDEO 1–5 S-Video Inputs

S-Video signals use a special cable which di- vides the video signal into several elements carried by separate conductors, providing higher quality than the standard RCA composite cables. If you choose to use an S-Video input connection from a source component, connect the S-Video output of that component to one of the inputs on the RSP-1066 labeled S-VIDEO IN using a standard S-Video interconnect cable.

NOTE: Signals from S-Video inputs will only be available at the S-Video outputs to the TV.

VIDEO 1–2

Component Video Inputs

Component Video connections split the video into three signals – luminance (Y) and sepa- rate chrominance (CB and CR) elements, al- lowing delivery of a reference-quality picture. Each of these signals is carried by a separate 75 ohm video cable with RCA connectors.

The VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 source inputs pro- vide an option for using Component Video con- nections. If you choose to use Component Video input connection from a source component, connect the three Component Video outputs of that component to the corresponding inputs on the RSP-1066 labeled COMPONENT VIDEO IN. Make sure that you connect each of the three cables to the proper connector (Y to Y, CB to CB, and CR to CR) and that you use standard 75 ohm video interconnect cables.

NOTE: Signals from Component Video inputs will only be available at the Component Video outputs to the TV monitor. The ON-SCREEN DISPLAY system is not available when using Component Video connections.

MULTI Inputs

These RCA inputs accept seven channels of analog signals from a 5.1 or 6.1 channel pro- cessor or source component. When selected with the front-panel MULTI INPUT button or re- mote EXT IN button, this input overrides any other audio input signal.

Use audio interconnect cables to connect the outputs of the source component to the RCA jacks labeled MULTI INPUT, making sure that you observe proper channel consistency, i.e. connect the right front channel to the R FRONT input, etc. Depending on your system configu- ration, you will make six connections (FRONT RIGHT/FRONT LEFT/REAR RIGHT/REAR LEFT/ CENTER/SUBWOOFER), seven connections

(FRONT RIGHT/FRONT LEFT/ REAR RIGHT/ REAR LEFT/CENTER/CENTER BACK/SUB- WOOFER).

Video Source Outputs

See Figure 4.

Three of the available video sources (VIDEO 1, 2 and 3) feature outputs that allow you to send a signal to a VCR or other source com- ponent for recording. The recording signal avail- able at all of these outputs is selected globally

using the REC button on the front-panel or the ZONE button on the remote and is indepen- dent of the source selected for listening.

NOTE: Recording signals are available at all source outputs, including the source selected for recording. As a general rule, you should not attempt to record to the component whose signal has been selected for recording.

The record outputs for VIDEO 1, 2, and 3 include a pair of RCA analog audio outputs plus a choice of composite video or S-Video output. To hook up a video component for re- cording, you will need to connect it to both analog audio outputs and to your choice of video outputs. Keep in mind that composite video input signals will not be available at the S-Video record outputs and S-Video input sig- nals will not be available at the composite video record outputs.

NOTE: All connections (both input and output) from a source component must be made con- sistently to the same set of connections. For example, if you designate a VCR as VIDEO 1, you must connect all of its input and output signals to the VIDEO 1 connectors.

VIDEO 1–3 Audio Outputs

Using standard audio interconnect cables, connect the left and right channel RCA audio outputs from the RSP-1066 to the audio inputs on the source component. Make sure that you are consistent. If you hook up a VCR to the VIDEO 1 inputs, hook up the VIDEO 1 out- puts to the same VCR. Also make sure that the left channel is connected to the LEFT connec- tors and the right channel to the RIGHT con- nectors.

VIDEO 1–3

Composite Video Outputs

If you choose to use the RCA composite video connections for a source component, use a 75 ohm video interconnect cable to connect the RSP-1066’s RCA video output (labeled COMPOSITE OUT) to the RCA video input on your VCR.

VIDEO 1–3 S-Video Outputs

If you choose to use S-Video connections for a source component, use an S-Video cable to connect the RSP-1066’s S-Video output (la- beled S-VIDEO OUT) to the S-Video input on your source component.
