Changing the digital input
settings
For example, you can connect
the unit to a DVD player that
makes optical output only by
performing the steps instructed
in “Changing the digital input
settings” (á page 32).
• Make additional connections instructed on page

Points regarding video terminals
• The input video signal can be sent out through an output terminal of the same type only.
• The component video terminals (colour-difference video terminal) outputs red (P
R), blue (PB), and luminance (Y)
signals separately. The terminals reproduces colours with greater accuracy for this reason.
