Making connections
Pay attention to the following when
making connections:
• Before connecting any devices, please
turn all equipment off.
• To obtain the most benefit from the
digital LCD screen, you should select the
connection method which will provide you
with the best possible signal.
• Do not pull cables out of sockets by
grasping the cable itself, as you may
damage the cable. Only ever remove
cables from sockets by grasping the plug
on the end of the cable.
• Once connected, please ensure that all
plugs are fully inserted and firmly seated.
Be aware that if incorrect connections are
made, picture quality may be adversely
affected.
Connecting the Composite Video input
Connect the Composite Video output of
your output equipment to the VIDEO and
AUDIO L/R terminals on the display using
the Composite Video cable as illustrated.
A Composite Video cable consists of three
connectors: Yellow (video), White (left
channel audio), and Red (right channel
audio). Ensure that the colors of the plugs
and terminals match when making
connection. To view video image from this
input, switch the input source to AV.
Composite Video provides the least
optimal image quality. Both S-Video and
Component Video provide better quality
video signals. AV supports both
Composite Video and SVideo signal
inputs. If you use S-Video, you cannot use
Composite Video for that input.
Connecting the S-Video input
1. Connect the S-Video output of your
output equipment to the display's
S-VIDEO terminal using an S-Video cable
(not provided). Pay attention to the
alignment of the plugs on the S-Video
cable when inserting so as not to damage
any pins.
