CONNECTIONS

S-Video

This is a higher quality connection than standard composite video, and requires a special S-Video cable not included. The S-Video connector is distinguishable by its 4 pins, as shown below. If your TV has an S-Video input, it’s recommended that you use this type of connection for better picture quality.

1 First, obtain a special S-Video cable. Connect the S- Video output from the unit to the corresponding input on your TV.
