DIN-plug (S-VIDEO)
If your graphics card is fitted with the S-VIDEO-connector you cannot directly connect
the transmitter to your PC but need an adapter. This adapter ‘converts’ your S-VIDEO-
signal into a composite video signal. This adapter is usually supplied with the graphics
card (or PC) with TV-out. You can also get this adapter from your Marmitek dealer.
(See figure 6; Art.nr. 09388).

This standard adapter does not fit on all PCs. In that case, please contact the supplier of the
graphics card. To use the TV-out some settings in the graphics card menu need to be
changed. This is different for each PC and operating system, but usually the correct mode
needs to be selected. Select ‘composite’, ‘CVBS’ or ‘PAL-G’. More information can usually be
found in the PC manual or graphics card manual. Because there are so many different types
of graphics cards, we cannot offer any support.

To transmit sound, you can use the audio out on the sound card of your PC. Please use an
adapter to convert the 3.5mm plug to a double RCA connection.

8. USING THE GigaVideo580™ SET.

1. Make sure your A/V device is switched on.
2. Switch the receiving TV over to the TV transmitter going with the A/V input you plugged

the receiver into. Normally done by using the 0 or A/V button. The picture should now
automatically be there. No tuning is required.
When you make use of the modulator [M], it should be done in channel 36.

3. Then you can control your A/V device with your own remote control by pointing it at the

IR window of the receiver or the IR window of your A/V device. The source can also be
switched by keeping the source button [S] at the backside of the receiver pressed for
about 5 seconds. You can switch sources at ‘TV 1’ (where the transmitter is connected) ,
by setting the SOURCE button [S] (at the backside of the transmitter) in the right posi-
tion, so the device switches over.

4. 2 external A/V devices can be connected to the transmitter.

Selecting the source:
Using ‘TV2’ (connected to the receiver), you can change sources by pressing any button
of a remote control for at least 8 seconds (e.g. of your TV or A/V device).
Independent of the signal on ‘TV1’ you can select a signal for ‘TV2’.
