Refer to the connection examples on the next page.

■Types of video jacks

RX-V530There are three types of video jacks as follows:

COMPONENT VIDEO

S VIDEO

VIDEO

PR/CR PB/CB Y

2

1

3

1VIDEO jack

Conventional composite video signal.

2 S VIDEO jack RX-V530

Transmits color and luminance separately and achives high-quality color reproduction.

3 COMPONENT VIDEO jacks RX-V530

Transmit color difference (PB/CB, PR/CR) and luminance separately and provide the best quality picture.

•Each type of video jack works independently. Signals input through the composite video, S-video and component jacks are only output through the corresponding composite video, S-video, and component jacks.

•Use a commercially available cable specified for connecting each type of jacks.

•The description of the component video jacks may differ depending on the component (e.g. Y, CB, CR/Y, PB, PR/Y, B-Y, R-Y etc.). When using these jacks, refer also to the operation instructions for the component being connected.

■Connecting a video monitor

Connect the video input jack on your video monitor to the MONITOR OUT VIDEO jack.

Note RX-V530

•If you connect this unit with a source component using S-video (or Component video) jacks, you also need to connect your video monitor using S-video (or Component video) jacks.

■Connecting a DVD player

Connect the optical digital audio signal output jack on your component to the DIGITAL INPUT jack and connect the video signal output jack on the component to the VIDEO jack on this unit.

y RX-V530

•If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, connect the S-video signal output jack on the component to the S VIDEO jack or connect the component video signal output jacks on the component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

•The AUDIO jacks are available for a video component which does not have optical digital output jack. However, multi- channel reproduction cannot be obtained with audio signals input from AUDIO jacks.

■Connecting a digital TV/cable TV

Connect the video signal output jack on the component to the VIDEO jack on this unit.

Connect the optical digital audio signal output jack on your component to the DIGITAL INPUT jack on this unit.

Connect the audio signal output jacks on your video component to the AUDIO jacks on this unit.

y RX-V530

•If your video component has an S-video output or component video output, connect the S-video signal output jack on the component to the S VIDEO jack or connect the component video signal output jacks on the component to the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.

■Connecting another video component

Connect the audio signal output jacks on your video component to the AUDIO jacks and connect the video signal output jack on the component to the VIDEO jack on this unit.

y(U.S.A., Canada and Australia models)

•You can connect the supplied A/V cable to V-AUX jacks and use female connectors to connect a portable device such as a game console or camcorder.

■Connecting a VCR or DVR (digital video recorder)

Connect the audio signal input jacks on your video component to the AUDIO OUT jacks and connect the video signal input jack on the video component to the VIDEO OUT jack on this unit for picture recording. Connect the audio signal output jacks on your component to the AUDIO IN jacks and connect the video signal output jack on the component to the VIDEO IN jack on this unit to play a source from your recording component.

y RX-V530

•If your video component has an S-video input, connect the S- video signal input jack on the component to the S VIDEO OUT jack.

•If your video component has an S-video output, connect the S- video signal output jack on the component to the S VIDEO IN jack.

Notes

•Once you have connected a recording component to this unit, keep its power turned on while using this unit. If the power is off, this unit may distort the sound from other components.

•RX-V530S-video and component video signals pass independently through this unit’s video circuit. Make sure to connect this unit to both a source component and a recording component using the video jacks of the same system.
