Useful Tips

S-VIDEO input/output connectors

•The S-VIDEO input/output connectors are terminals for the Y/C (luminance/chrominance) separate video signals.

•If these connectors are connected to a VCR equipped with S-VIDEO connectors, recording and playback of clearer video becomes possible by reducing loss in the video sig- nal.

•A VCR not equipped with S-VIDEO connectors should be connected to the VIDEO terminals, which transmit the sig- nal obtained by synthesizing the Y/C signals (composite signal).

Y/C separator

• The output circuits of the JX-S555 incorporate circuitry for

separating the video signals input through the VIDEO ter-

minals (composite signal) into Y/C (luminance/chrominance)

signals.

This feature is convenient in dubbing from a VCR without S-

VIDEO connectors to a VCR equipped with them or watch-

Y/C mixer

•The output circuits of the JX-S555 incorporate circuitry for mixing the video signals input through the S-VIDEO termi- nals (separate signals) into a composite video signal.

This feature is convenient in dubbing from a VCR equipped with S-VIDEO terminals to a VCR without them.
