Connecting to Composite Video Output Devices
Many video devices, such as VCRs, DVD players,
video game systems, and camcorders, have
composite video outputs. Composite video uses
one RCA cable to transmit video information and
generally provides lower quality than S-Video
and component video (see below).
To connect a composite video source to the
display:
1. Using an RCA cable, connect the composite
video output (yellow) on the source device to
the corresponding jack in one of the three
composite video blocks on the display
(AV1IN, AV2IN, or AV3IN).
2. Using two RCA cables, connect the right (red)
and left (white) audio outputs on the source
to the corresponding jacks in the same
composite video block used above.
Connecting to S-Video Output Devices
Many video devices that have composite video outputs also have S-Video outputs. S-Video uses a
single four-wire cable to transmit video information. Two of the wires are used to transmit video.
Because it splits the video signal into two components, S-Video generally provides higher quality
than composite video, but lower quality than component video (see below).
Note: The pins used in S-Video connectors are
somewhat fragile. Take care to avoid
bending the pins, as a bent or broken pin
can cause loss of color information or
total signal loss.
To connect an S-Video source to the display:
1. Using an S-Video cable, connect the S-Video
output on the source device to the S-Video
jack on the display.
2. Using two RCA cables, connect the right (red)
and left (white) audio outputs on the source
to the corresponding jacks in the S-Video
block on the display.
