Connections
Before using the unit, connect the unit to a TV and/or amplifier.
Before making connections
• Do not connect the AC power cord until all other
connections have been made.
• Connect VIDEO OUT of the unit directly to the video input
of your TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT of the unit to a TV via a
VCR may cause a monitor problem when playing back a
copy-protected disc. You may also have a monitor problem
when connecting the unit to an integrated TV/Video
system.
NOTE
If your TV has an AV COMPU LINK terminal, you can use the AV
COMPU LINK function. See “AV COMPU LINK remote control
system” on page 33 for details.
Connecting to a TV
The following sections A to C describe TV connections where
only a TV is connected to the unit so that you will hear audio from
the TV.
A Connecting to a conventional TV
NOTE
If your TV has a monaural audio input instead of stereo, you need
to use an optional audio cable which converts stereo audio output
to monaural.
B Connecting to a TV with an S-video jack
If your TV has an S-VIDEO input, you can get better picture
quality by connecting it with the S-VIDEO output of the unit using
an S-video cable instead of connecting the video input of the TV
to the VIDEO jack of the unit.
NOTE
When using the S-VIDEO output jack, do not connect the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on the unit.
• In the following description, “TV” may be substituted with
“monitor” or “projector.”
• Terminal names used for other components may be different
from those used in the following description.
