Cable/Satellite Analog S-Video Input

in order to view the CVR700’s audio on-screen menu system.

Digital Recorder Source Input

If you have a personal video recorder (PVR), such as a TiVo, we recommend that you connect it to the Digital Recorder (DR) source input and output jacks. Alternatively, use the Digital Recorder source for a DVD Recorder, a CD recorder, a MiniDisc recorder, a tape deck or any other audio or A/V recording device. Select either the Digital Recorder Coaxial Digital Audio Input f or the

Digital Recorder Optical Digital Audio Input j for your digital audio connection (but not both), and connect the appropriate digital audio output on the recorder to the corresponding digital audio input. If desired, connect the ana- log audio outputs of the recorder to the Digital Recorder Analog Inputs ª.

For PVRs and DVD recorders, connect the component video outputs to the Digital

Recorder Component Video Inputs

. Note that there are no corresponding component video outputs, as copy-pro- tection measures incorporated in most devices prohibit recording component video signals due to their high quality. Alternatively, you may connect the com- posite or S-video outputs of your recorder to the Digital Recorder Analog S-Video Input ª, but note that a separate source is available for analog VCRs.

Connect either the Coaxial Digital Audio Output b or the Optical Digital Audio Output g to the corresponding

record input on your recording device. If you also connect the Digital Recorder Analog Audio Outputs to the analog record inputs on your device, remember to select the correct input on your recorder.

Connect either the composite video or S-

video Digital Recorder Analog Video

Output to the corresponding record input on your recording device.

VCR Source Input

If you have an analog VCR or other ana- log recording device, we recommend that you connect it to the VCR source input and output jacks.

Connect the analog audio outputs of the recorder to the VCR Analog Audio Inputs . If available, connect the S- video output of your recorder to the VCR

Analog Video Input . Otherwise, use

the composite video jacks.

Next, connect the VCR Analog Audio Outputs ¤ to the analog audio record inputs on your recorder. Connect the same type of VCR Analog Video Output

¤(composite or S-video) that you used for the input to the CVR700 to the record input of your device.

DVI/Computer Source Input

Due to its advanced video processing and reproduction capabilities, the JBL Cinema Vision system may be used with your per- sonal computer (PC) for no-compromise video displays. A dedicated DVI (digital video interface) may be used with com- patible computers to enjoy activities from video games to surfing the Internet. The large screen is perfect for displaying pre- sentations to a group, or simply for pro- viding a better view of an intricate spreadsheet. This source input may also be used with the latest compatible DVD players or other devices with high-quality DVI video outputs.

Select either the DVI/Computer Coaxial Digital Audio Input f or the DVI/

Computer Optical Digital Audio Input k for connecting the corresponding digi- tal audio output on your PC. Alternatively, or as a backup, connect the analog audio outputs on your PC to the DVI/Computer Analog Audio Inputs . If your PC’s analog audio output is a stereo 1/8-inchmini-jack, you will need to supply a Y- cable with a stereo 1/8-inchmini-plug at one end and conventional left and right analog audio interconnect plugs

at the other.

Connect the video output port on your PC to the DVI (HDCP)/Computer Video Input 5.

If your computer has an analog VGA video output instead of a DVI output, you may use the included VGA-to-DVI adaptor cable to connect the computer’s video output to the DVI (HDCP)/Computer

Video Input 5.

NOTE: When using a source connected

via the DVI (HDCP)/Computer Video

Input 35 , it is not possible to view the CVR700’s video on-screen menu system. In addition, although you may access the audio menus, if you attempt to do so, you will temporarily lose the video signal at the DVI input. If the last previous source used provided an S-video signal, such as an external VCR, then that signal will appear when you attempt to access the on-screen menus while using the DVI/Computer source.

IMPORTANT: The Screen Saver function does not operate when using the DVI video input. Therefore, to prevent an image from burning into your CVPD50 screen, it is extremely important that you activate the Screen Saver function on your PC or other DVI device. If none is available, we recommend you place the CVPD50 screen in Sleep mode by press-

ing the Screen Standby/Sleep Button

Y 19 on either remote when you anticipate that a still image will remain on screen for more than a few minutes.

A/V Auxiliary Source Input

An auxiliary audio/video source input is provided in case you have an additional component you’d like to connect to your JBL Cinema Vision system, such as an additional cable television box, satellite receiver, HDTV tuner, laserdisc player, or any other audio/video device. Do not con- nect a turntable to this input unless you are using it with a phono preamp with conventional analog audio outputs.

Connect the coaxial or optical digital audio output of the device to the

Auxiliary Coaxial Digital Audio Input c or the Auxiliary Optical Digital Audio Input h. As a backup, you may wish to connect the device’s analog audio outputs to the Auxiliary Analog Audio Inputs . If the device has composite or S-video outputs, connect one or the other to the corresponding Auxiliary Analog Video Input .

Main Room Remote Control

Extension

An infrared receiver located on the front of the CVPD50 is capable of receiving control commands for both the CVPD50 and the CVR700, enabling you to place the CVR700 inside a cabinet. If you wish to control an external source component that is also hidden from view, simply con- nect the CVR700’s Remote IR Output Jack to the Remote IR input jack on compatible equipment. Now you may simply point the remote control at the plasma screen to send commands to any device in your JBL Cinema Vision system.

If the CVR700 is used without the CVPD50 and is placed inside a cabinet or other location that prevents the remote sensor from receiving commands, an optional remote IR sensor may be connected to the Remote IR Input Jack .
