Connecting Your Equipment
Connecting your TV
Connect your TV to the jacks as shown below. Hook up with either component video, S video, or compos- ite video cords (the quality descends in this order). If you use component video cables to hook up your DVD player (or other components) then you must hook up your TV with component video cables as well. In general it is easiest to use one kind of video cord for all your video components (DVD player, TV, satellite TV receiver, etc.) but you can use different kinds of cables (see "Video Converter" below).
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

The color signal of the TV is divided into the luminance (Y) signal and the color (PB and PR) signals and then output. In this way, interference between the signals is avoided.
Composite Video
Composite video cords are the most common or standard video cord but also the lowest quality. The color on the connector is yellow to distinguish it from regular RCA audio cords which have white and red connectors (see p.22). It is important to use a true composite video cord and not an audio cord (though they look exactly the same) because the impedance is different and this will affect the picture quality.

This unique feature of the
memo If you use component video cords to hook up any of you equipment you must assign those inputs with the "Assigning the Component Video Inputs" procedure. See page 81 to do this.
