6. Connecting a LD player
Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the LD player to the VIDEO 4 IN jack on the TX-DS989. If there is an S-video output terminal on the LD player, connect it to the S VIDEO 4 IN jack using an S- video cable.
If the LD player has an AC-3RF output, connect it to the AC-3RF jack on the TX-DS989. If this connection is made, “AC-3RF” must be set in the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup → Digital Format (see page 34).
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the LD player to the audio VIDEO 4 IN jacks on the TX-DS989. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
If the LD player has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS989 depending on the type of connector on the LD player.
With the initial settings of the TX-DS989, the VIDEO 4 input source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 4 jack. If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup → Digital Input (see page 34).
7. Connecting a video cassette recorder
Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the video cassette recorder to the VIDEO 1 IN jacks on the TX-DS989 and video input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks. If there is an S-video input/output terminal on the video cassette recorder, connect it to the S VIDEO 1 IN/OUT jack using an S-video cable. If the video cassette recorder has component video outputs, connect them to one of the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the video cassette recorder to the same VIDEO 1 IN audio jacks on the TX-DS989 and audio input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT audio jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
8. Connecting a satellite tuner or television
Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the satellite tuner or television to the VIDEO 3 IN jacks on the TX-DS989. If there is an S-video output terminal on the satellite tuner or television, connect it to the S VIDEO 3 IN jack using an S-video cable. If the satellite tuner or television has component video outputs, connect them to one of the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the satellite tuner or television to the same VIDEO 3 IN audio jacks on the TX-DS989. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
If the satellite tuner or television has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX- DS989 depending on the type of connector on the set top box or television.
With the initial settings of the TX-DS989, the VIDEO 3 input source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 3 jack. If the digital connection is made at a jack different from the initial settings, this must be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup
→Digital Input (see page 34).
9.Connecting a DVD recorder or other digital video recording device
Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video output terminal (composite) on the device to the VIDEO 2 IN jacks on the TX-DS989 and video input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks. If there is an S-video input/output terminal on the device, connect it to the S VIDEO 2 IN/OUT jack using an S-video cable. If the device has component video outputs, connect them to one of the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.
Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the device to the same VIDEO 2 IN audio jacks on the TX-DS989 and audio input terminal to the VIDEO 1 OUT audio jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.
If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS989 depending on the type of connector on the device.
With the initial settings of the TX-DS989, the VIDEO 2 input source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 2 jack. If the digital connection is made at a jack different from the initial settings, this must be changed at the OSD Menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup
→Digital Input (see page 34).
If the device also has a digital input jack, it can be connected to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TX-DS989 for recording of the signal from the input source selected at the TX-DS989.
10. Connecting a television monitor or projector
Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video input terminal (composite) on the monitor to one of the MONITOR OUT jacks on the TX-DS989. If there is an S-video input terminal on the monitor, connect it to the S VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack using an S-video cable. If the device has component video inputs, connect them to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.
Note that the OSD Menu will not be displayed on the monitor connected to MONITOR OUT 2. This allows you to connect large screens or projectors to MONITOR OUT 2 and use a smaller television connected to MONITOR OUT 1 just to make settings in the OSD Menu.
