Connect the HDMI video outputs of your source equipment to these corresponding HDMI inputs.

OUT 1

Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your main zone display device.

OUT 2

Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your second display device or to another HDMI display device in a second living space. As the unit has only one processed video path, this signal will be a copy of the signal on Out 1.

Component/RGB video connectors

These inputs are suitable for connection to source devices which output Component (YUV or YPbPr) or RGB high quality analogue video signals. These signals are usually available from DVD players, set-top boxes or games consoles.

If you are connecting up to an RGB source you will also need to connect the source’s Composite output to the unit’s Composite input to act as a video sync. The Composite signal should be on the same named input as the RGB signals.

RGB video outputs on source equipment are often on SCART connectors. You will need to use a SCART to ‘RGB+Sync on phono’ breakout cable, available from your Arcam dealer.

NOTE

All Zone 1 analogue video outputs will be disabled if an HDMI digital video source is selected.

the three-wire high quality video input is Component or RGB for each input. This is done on the ‘HQ Video In’ line in the Input Config menu. Failure to do this can result in a green looking picture or a picture that is unstable.

AV, DVD, SAT, VCR, PVR

Connect the Component video outputs of your source equipment to these inputs.

OUT

Connect this output to the Component video input of your display device.

NOTE

Analogue RGB video output is not available from the AVR500, AVR600 or AV888. The analogue three-wire high quality video output is always configured as Component video.

These are recording outputs. Connect these to the ‘S-Video in’ or ‘Composite in’ sockets (usually labelled ‘RECORD’) on your recording device.

MAIN OUT

Connect this output to the S-Video or Composite sockets on your primary Zone 1 display.
