47.1 Channel Audio Out

If Down-mix is set to '7.1 CH' in the Speaker Setup page of the DVD99’s Setup menus, these sockets provide 7.1 output from the DVD99's built in Dolby Digital decoder. This can be used to connect to the 7.1 audio line-level inputs of an amplifier/AV receiver or amplified speaker package if required. Similarly, Down-mix can be set to '5.1 CH' to provide

5.1output. If Down-mix is set to 'LT/RT', 'Stereo' or 'V.Surround' the Left and Right outputs only are active and provide a stereo downmixed output. Refer to the 'Speaker setup page' section of this manual for more information.

5RGB/SCART

Use a SCART/Peritel cable to connect to the 21-pin scart input jack of a TV. SCART carries both audio (stereo) and video (as either Composite, S- Video or RGB) at the same time.

6AC power socket

Once you have made all audio and video connections, plug the IEC type AC power cable into the rear of the unit and an appropriate mains socket then switch on. Your DVD player is now ready for use.
