Devices which can output the S-VIDEO signal

(Y/C signal) such as a S-VHS VCR

Connect the device to an EXT terminal other than the EXT-
1 terminal.
You can choose a video input signal from the S-VIDEO
signal (Y/C signal) and regular video signal (composite
signal). For details of how to operate the device, see “S-IN
(S-VIDEO input)” on page 19.

T-V LINK compatible VCR

Be sure to connect the T-V LINK compatible VCR to the
EXT-2 terminal. If not, the T-V LINK function will not
work properly.
• When connecting a T-V LINK compatible VCR to the
EXT-2 terminal, be sure to connect the Decoder to the
VCR. If not, the T-V LINK function may not work
properly. After you have registered TV channels to the
programme numbers (PR), set the DECODER (EXT-2)
function for the programme number (PR) to ON in order
to unscramble a scrambled TV channel. For details of
operation, see “Using the DECODER (EXT-2) function”
on page 29.

Connecting headphones

Connect the headphones with a stereo mini-jack (3.5 mm
diameter) to the headphone jack at the TV front panel.

Video/sound signal output from the EXT-2

terminal

You can change over the output of the video/sound signal
from the EXT-2 terminal. It is useful when you want to dub
the video/sound from another device on the VCR connected
to the EXT-2 terminal. For details on how to do this, see
“DUBBING” on page 19.

TV output from the EXT-1 terminal

The output of video/sound signal of a TV channel you are
viewing is always output from the EXT-1 terminal.
• Changing over a programme number (PR) also changes
over the TV output from the EXT-1 terminal.
• The video/sound signal from an EXT terminal cannot be
output.
• Teletext programmes cannot be output.

Connecting a PC

For details, see “Looking at images from a computer” on
page 26.

Connecting Speakers/Amplifier

See the Audio equipment connection diagram, then connect
the audio equipment you desire to the TV.
You can use external front speakers to listen to the TV
sound instead of the TV speakers.
Before connecting anything:
• Read the manuals provided with the amplifier and
speakers.
• Turn the TV and amplifier off.
• To prevent magnetism from the speakers adversely
effecting the TV screen, use magnetic-shielded speakers
for the front speakers.
• Note that connecting cables are not supplied.
• The output from the AUDIO OUT terminal is not
interrupted by headphone connection to the TV. You
cannot cut the sound from the front speaker even if you
connect a headphone to the TV.
• Adjust the volume of the external speakers with the
amplifier.
