Precautions
Selecting one out of four inputs
¢ Up to four video units can be connected. You can select a
desired unit out of four for monitoring.
Editing functions
© Signals from three video units can be edited onto a single video
unit.
© Bi-directional editing can be made easily using two video units.
Monitor selection
© While editing, you can monitor the picture of another video unit.
High-quality picture and sound
© S VIDEO jacks for sharp and clear images
© 24K gold-plated jacks for clear sound and images reproduction
© An OFC (oxygen-free copper) printed-circuit board for high-
quality sound and images
S VIDEO (Separated Luminance/
Chrominance Signal) Input/Output
Connectors
Conventional video equipment transmits or receives the
composite video signal. The composite vidoe signal is liable
to produce interference resulting in picture quality loss. On
the other hand, the S VIDEO connector transmits or
receives the video signal separated into the luminance
signal and the chrominance signal.
Flickers and color blur in the picture are minimized with the
separated video signals and picutre sharpness is enhanced
to such an extent that even hair and fine stripes are clearly
visible. The S VIDEO connector also assures minimum loss
in picture quality during editing.
On installation
© Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources
such as heaters or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical shock or
vibration.
On connection
© Firmly connect the cables into jacks. Loose cable
connection may cause noise and distorted images.
* To disconnect the cable, pull it out by grasping the plug,
not the cable.
e Jacks and plugs of the connecting cable are color-coded
as follows:
Red jacks and plugs: for the right channel of audio
signals.
White jacks and plugs: for the left channel of audio
signals.
Yellow jacks and plugs: for video signals.
¢ If this unit is placed on the top of a TV (monitor), it might
cause noise and distorted images due to electromagnetic
radiation from the TV (monitor). In such a case, rearrange
the cables. If there is no improvement, move the unit to a
different location.

This unit can be connected to the TV (monitor) or monitor
which has no S VIDEO jacks. However, for sharp and
clear images, we recommend to connect video units
equipped with the S VIDEO jacks. In addition, for
optimizing the editing functions of this unit, we
recommend to connect the TV (monitor) or monitor with
two or more sets of input jacks.
