The exclamation point with an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the

You can use your PH61153 Audio/Video Selector to connect up to four audio/video components (such as direct-
to-home satellite systems, VCRs, DVD players, laserdisc players, cable boxes, or video game system) and
multimedia speakers to a single TV. You can connect S-video cables directly to the selector for optimum picture
quality.
Note: Depending upon your audioA/ideo system setup, you might also need additional cables or adapters to
connect all of the desired components. Use phono cables to connect audio and video devices, and S-video
cables to connect video devices to the selector.
Note: To receive video output from the OUT S-video Jack on the back of the selector, you must use an S-video
cable to connect a video source to one of the IN S-video jacks
Placing the Selector:
You can set the selector on just about any flat surface. For the best results, do not place it on top of a TV or other
electrical appliance.
Important: If you place the selector on top of your TV, electromagnetic interference from the TV might distort the
sound from any devices connected to the selector. If this happens, move the selector away from the TV.
Connecting Devices to the Selector:
1. Connect the sound outputs for each device to a set of IN AUDIO jack (1-4) on the back of the selector.
2. If a device you want to connect does not have an S-video cable, connect its video output to IN VIDEO for that
device on the back of the selector. Or, if the device has an S-video cable, connect it to the S-video IN VIDEO jack
for that device on the back of the selector.
3. If the TV or monitor you want to connect does not have an S-video cable, connect its video input to OUT
VIDEO on the back of the selector.
4. Auto Detector
When the PH61153 doesn’t detect the signal from the 4 inputs, it will automatically process the signal from the
“P connector of “ANT IN" to RF output.
5. Synchronize Recording function:
If you choose any of the 4 inputs to process the program, you may also record the program at the same time from
the Audio/Video/S-video output.
Automatic Selection of Video/Audio Sources:
1. Press MODE key and the AUTO LED indicator will turn on. The unit is now in AUTO Mode
2. This unit has 4 audio/video inputs. It can automatically select one of the 4 audio/video sources. The
choice is made upon the availability of these video signals. If video program is available at the “IN 2" input, this
device automatically selects the “IN 2" video program and shows on your TV set via the “TO TV" output
connectors.
3. In the case of contention and collision among audio/video sources, an order of priority has been assigned to
these inputs as follows:
Video/Audio Input Priority
IN 1 Least Priority
IN 2 First Priority
IN 3 Second Priority
IN 4 Third Priority
Example: In the case that
both “IN 1" input and “IN 2"
input have audio/video
programs, the unit will select
“IN 2” input for TV viewing.
