CONNECTIONS

■Connections for other video components

Notes

•Be sure to connect your video source components in the same way you connect your video monitor to this unit if V. CONV. (see page 53) is set to OFF. For example, if you connect your video monitor to this unit using a VIDEO connection, connect your video source components to this unit using the VIDEO connections. (Even when V. CONV. is set to OFF, S-video signals input from your video source component are automatically converted to composite signals in this unit.)

•Converted video signals are only output to the MONITOR OUT jacks. When recording, you must make the same type of video connections (i.e., S-video) between each component.
