CONNECTIONS

The following show examples of connections commonly used to connect the DVD player to TV and other components. If using this DVD player to playback a DVD in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround or DTS surround format, the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its OPTICAL or COAXIAL DIGITAL OUT jacks. By hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard which can be heard in movie theaters. Use an audio optical or coaxial digital cable (not included) for the audio connections.

NOTES:

• Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.

• Refer to the Instruction Manuals for your TV, stereo system and any other components to be connected to

the DVD player.

NOTES (for Method 2 only):

• When using an AV amplifier with a built in decoder (AV control center), Dolby Digital, or DTS decoder as shown in the Method 2, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” or “DTS” to “ON” accordingly for audio output in the setup mode (Refer to page 24). Set it to “OFF” for the decoder that is not used currently. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers.

• The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD deck or DAT deck.

•

Set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to page 24)

•

Harsh noise that could harm your ears or the speakers is generated when a DVD recorded in DTS is played while using a decoder, etc., that is not DTS-compatible.

•

When playing a copyright-protected 96 KHz linear PCM DVD, the digital sound will be down sampled at 48 KHz, even if you set “LPCM SELECT” to “OFF”.

“DTS” to “OFF” for audio output in the setup mode for connecting to an MD deck or DAT deck. (

Optical cable (not supplied)

• Optical cable (not supplied) may be damaged when bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled in loops with a diameter of 15 cm or more when storing them.

• Use a cable which is 3m or shorter.

• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.

NOTES:

• Connect the DVD player directly to a TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted due to the

copy protection system.

• S-Video output connector

The video signals are divided into colour (C) and brightness (Y) signals, achieving a clearer picture. If the TV is equipped with a S-Video input connector, we recommend connecting it to the this product’s S-Video output connector using a commercially available S-Video connection cord.

HOW TO CONNECT TO A TV WITHOUT AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT JACKS

If your TV does not have RCA type audio and video input jacks it is still possible to connect this DVD player to your TV’s 75-ohm coaxial antenna terminal using an optional Stereo Audio/Video RF Modulator, not included. Connect the audio and video outputs of the DVD player to the audio and video inputs on the RF Modulator, and then connect the coaxial output of the RF Modulator (usually marked “TO TV”) to the 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal on your TV. Follow the instruction supplied with the RF Modulator for more details. If your TV’s 75 ohm coaxial antenna terminal is already occupied by an antenna or cable box connection, remove that cable from your TV’s antenna terminal and reconnect it to the coaxial antenna input terminal of the RF Modulator (usually marked “ANT IN”), then connect the RF modulator to your TV’s antenna terminal as described above.

NOTE

• The picture quality from DVD discs will not be as good if the DVD player is connected to the TV’s antenna terminal

through an RF Modulator.
