PREPARATION

mConnecting to S VIDEO terminals

If your monitor has an “S” video input terminal and your video cassette recorder, LD player, DVD player, etc. also have “S” video terminals, connect them to this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL terminals as illustrated below. In addition, a video unit which has an “S” video output can be connected to the VIDEO AUX S VIDEO terminal on the front of this unit.

With these connections, you can play back or record high quality pictures. Otherwise, connect the “composite” video terminals of your monitor, video cassette recorder, LD player, DVD player, etc. to the “composite” VIDEO SIGNAL terminals of this unit.

Note

If video signals are sent to both S VIDEO input and VIDEO input terminals, the signals will be sent to their respective output terminals.

S VIDEO terminals

This unit provides you with S VIDEO terminals in addition to standard type VIDEO terminals.

S VIDEO terminals transmit video signals separated into luminance (Y) signals and color (C) signals. In comparison with S VIDEO terminals, standard type VIDEO terminals transmit “composite” video signals.
