Getting StartedHooking Up the System

TV-VCR Hookups

You must connect a TV to control the receiver using the

on-screen display. Also, to enjoy the Dolby Pro Logic

Surround encoded videos and TV programs, you need

to connect TV and VCRs together with the center and

rear speakers.

If your components are Sony products, connect them to

the jacks as shown in the table on page 19, this makes

IR registration is unnecessary.

p STR-DE1015G

For digital connections see “Digital Component

Hookups” (page 13)

p STR-DE815G and STR-DE760Z

* TV/DBS : USA, Canada and Australia

TV : Other countries

What cables will I need?

• Audio/video cable (not supplied)

• Video cable (not supplied)

Make sure to match the color of the plugs and the

jacks: Yellow (video) to Yellow; White (left, audio) to

White; and Red (right, audio) to Red. If your

components have S-video jacks, we recommend that

you use the S-video jacks instead of the video jacks.

Ç : signal flow

a MONITOR (to TV or monitor)

Be sure to use your TV as a monitor, and use the TV

tuner built-in to the VCR to watch TV programs. If

you use your TV’s tuner, the on-screen display will

change to a TV program when you switch channels.

Also, do not connect anything to the TV/DBS* IN

jacks.

If you connect a Sony TV with TV OUT jacks, you can

use the TV tuner in your TV (see page 28 for details)

and the TV/DBS IN jacks without disrupting the on-

screen display.

b VIDEO 1, 2 (to VCR)

Connect VCRs to the VIDEO 1 or/and VIDEO 2 jacks.

If you connect a Sony StarSight tuner, connect it to the

VIDEO 1 jacks.
