CAUTION:

• Be sure to turn off the unit and equipment to be connected before connecting.
• Read through the Operation Manual for the equipment to be connected.
• Be sure that the colors of the jacks and plugs match up when connecting the cable.
• Be sure to keep the unit connection cables separate from the TV antenna cable when you install the unit, because it may cause electrical

interference when you are watching television programs.

Hint
• The unit is sending each video signals simultaneously. If you connected an S-VIDEO OUT and/or a COMPONENT VIDEO OUT with the VIDEO

OUT, make sure your TV’s input mode is set correctly according to the connection you made.

• If you want to listen to the audio through audio equipment, connect only the S-video, component video cable or video cable to the TV.
• You will not be able to hear all of the sound being output by the unit if you use the video/audio cable (supplied) to a monaural TV that has

only one audio input jack.

If your TV is compatible with 525 progressive scanning and you want to enjoy that high quality picture;
You must select the connection Method 3 above and progressive scanning mode. To set the mode, set “PROGRESSIVE” to “ON” in the DISPLAY
menu, so that the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel lights on. See pages 16, 17 for more details.
• When “PROGRESSIVE” is “ON”, video signals from the unit’s VIDEO OUT and S-VIDEO OUT jacks will be distorted or not be output at all.
If your TV is not compatible with progressive scanning;
Use this unit in interlace mode and set “PROGRESSIVE” to “OFF” either in the DISPLAY menu or by pressing and holding PLAY B on the front of the
unit for more than 5 seconds, so that the PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel lights off.

RF Modulator Connection

If your TV has Antenna input jack only, it is still possible to connect this unit to your TV by using a STEREO AUDIO/VIDEO RF Modulator
(commercially available).
In this case, follow the instructions below.

1.

Connect the AUDIO/VIDEO output jacks of this unit to the AUDIO/

VIDEO input jacks of your RF Modulator by audio and video cables.

2.

The antenna input jack of your TV may have been already occupied.

If so, disconnect the RF cable from your TV, and then connect the
RF cable to your RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”).

3.

Connect your RF modulator to your TV by another RF cable.

4.

Set your RF modulator’s channel 3/4 switch to either 3 or 4, whichever the

TV channel is least used in your area. If your RF modulator has a Modulator/
Antenna switch, set it according to your RF modulator’s manual.

5.

Turn on your TV and choose the same channel as you set the RF mod-

ulator’s channel 3/4 switch to. For more details, follow the instructions
supplied with the RF Modulator.

Hint
• The quality of picture may become poor if the unit is connected to an RF Modulator.
