MAKING CONNECTIONS

Video Connections
This player features S-video, composite, and
component video output possibilities.
Check the manual supplied with your TV or monitor to
determine the best possible connection for your
system.
In addition to making physical connections to your TV
or monitor, it is also necessary to assign the TV
screen size. You can use the [Setup Navigator] in
the Setup screen General to set whether you are
using a wide screen or standard size TV or monitor
(page 18). Additionally, you can use the [TV Screen]
setting in the Setup screen Video menu (page 28).

S-VIDEO OUT

• Make S-video connections to a TV or monitor with
S-video input to produce a high quality video image.
• Use an S-video cable (not supplied) to connect the
S-VIDEO OUT jack on the player to S-video input
on the TV or monitor.
•When making S-video connections, make sure to
set the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on the rear
panel of the player to the left to assign S-video
output.

VIDEO OUT

• Make composite video connections to a standard TV
or monitor with a video input jack.
• Use the supplied video cable to connect one of the
VIDEO OUT jack on the player to the video input on
the TV or monitor.
• Be sure to match the color of the plug with the color
of the jack (yellow).
• When making video connections, make sure to set the
VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on the rear panel of the
player to the left to assign composite video output.
System Control Connections
Using a commercially available cord with a mini plug
(3.5 mm dia. with no resistance) to connect this player’s
CONTROL IN jack to the CONTROL OUT jack of
another PIONEER component bearing the Î mark, you
can control the player as though it were a component in
a system (system control).
• If you connect for system control, you cannot operate
the player directly. Point the remote control unit at the
component (AV amplifier, etc.) connected to the
CONTROL OUT jack to operate.
• When controlling as a system, be sure to make a
connection to the amplifier using an audio or video
cord, even when using only digital components.
• For details, refer to the operation manuals of the
connected components.
