Installation and Connections
7.If another component video device is avail- able, connect it to the Video 2 Component
Video Input jacks | . The audio connections | |
for this device should be made to either the | ||
Video 2 Input jacks | or any of the Coaxial | |
or Optical Digital Input jacks | . |
8. If the component video inputs are used, connect the Component Video Output to the component video inputs of your TV, projector or display device.
9.If you have a camcorder, video game or other audio/video device that is connected to the AVR on a temporary, rather than permanent basis, connect the audio, video and digital audio out- puts of that device to the Front Panel Inputs *ÓÔ. A device connected to the Video 4 jacks Ô is selected as the Video 4 input, and connected to the digital jacks *Ó it is selected as "Optical 3" or "Coaxial 3" input. (See page 19 for more information on input configuration.)
Video Connection Notes:
•Y/Pr/Pb Component, RGB (see page 15), or Composite video signals may only be viewed in their native formats and will not be converted to the other formats.
•When the component video jacks are used, the
•All component inputs/outputs can be used for RGB signals too, in the same way as described for the Y/Pr/Pb signals, then connected to the jacks with the corresponding color.
But this is only correct as long as only the three RGB video signals are output by the video source, with a sync signal in the "G" signal only, without any sync signal output separately by the source.
SCART A/V Connections
For the connections described above your video device needs RCA (cinch) connectors or/and S- Video connectors for all Audio and Video signals: Any normal video device (Not SVHS or High 8) for only playback needs 3 RCA jacks, VCRs for record and playback even 6 RCA jacks. Any

Many european video devices are equipped with RCA (Cinch) or
In that case the following Scart to Cinch adapters or cables are needed:
•Units for playback, such as satellite receivers, camcorders, DVD or LD players, need an adapter from Scart to 3 RCA plugs, see fig. 1 (normal video devices) or from Scart to 2 RCA+1
•HiFi VCRs need an adapter from Scart to 6 RCA plugs, see fig. 2 (normal video), or from Scart to 4
•If you use only normal video devices the TV monitor needs an adapter from 3 RCA plugs to Scart (fig. 3) only. If also
Note that only the video plugs (the "yellow" cinch plug in fig. 3 and the
Important Note for Adapter Cables:
If the cinch connectors of the adapter you’ll use are labeled, connect the Audio and Video ”In” plugs with the corresponding Audio and Video ”In” jacks on the AVR (and with a VCR connect the ”Out” plugs to the ”Out” jacks on the AVR). Note that with some adapter types it may be just turned around: If no signal is audible/ visible when the VCR is playing connect the “Out” plugs to the ”In” jacks on the AVR and turned around. If the adapter plugs are not labeled in that way, pay attention to the signal flow direc- tions as shown in the diagrams above and in the instruction attached to the adapter. If uncertain, don’t hesitate to consult your dealer.
