Connecting a video component equipped with S-Video jacks

When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.

A note on the S input jacks

The input selectors for the S inputs and pin jack inputs work in conjunction with each other.

Precaution when using S-jacks

This unit’s S-jacks (input and output) and video pin jacks (input and output) have independent circuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-jacks are only output from the S-jack outputs and video signals input from the pin jacks are only output from the pin jack outputs. When connecting this unit with equipment that is equipped with S-jacks, keep the above point in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s instruction manuals.
