PREPARATION

mConnecting to S VIDEO terminals

If your video cassette recorder and your monitor are equipped with “S” video terminals, connect this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL VCR IN and OUT terminals to the “S” video input and output of your video cassette recorder, and connect this unit’s S VIDEO SIGNAL MONITOR OUT terminal to the “S” video input of your monitor. In addition, a video unit equipped with 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 from your video cassette recorder, etc. to the VIDEO SIGNAL terminals of this unit, and connect this unit’s VIDEO SIGNAL MONITOR OUT terminal to the “composite” video input of your monitor.

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.
