Connecting Other Sources

Connecting a VCR

•If you wish to perform analog dubbing from a digital source, such as a DVD recorder to an analog recorder such as a cassette deck, you will need to connect the analog inputs and outputs as shown below, in addition to the digital audio connections.

•Precaution when using S-Video terminals

AVR-487’s S-Video terminals (input and output) and video terminals (input and output) have independent circuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-Video terminals are only output from the S-Video terminal outputs and video signals input from the pin terminals are only output from the pin terminal outputs.

When connecting this unit with equipment that is equipped with S-Video terminals, keep the above point in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s instruction manuals.

•The signals input to the component (color difference) video terminals are not output from the VIDEO output terminal (yellow) or the S-Video output terminal.

•When recording to a VCR, it is necessary that the type of cable used with the playback source equipment be the same type that is connected to the AVR-487 VCR OUT terminal.

Example: TV IN → S-Video cable : VCR OUT → S-Video cable TV IN → Video cable : VCR OUT → Video cable
