Preparing the

Connecting the combination unit to a television

combination unit for operation

Remote control

1 Open the battery compartment on the back of the re-

mote control and remove the cover of the battery comparment.

2 Now put in two batteries type AAA/LR 03 (round cells,

not included in the scope of supply) into the battery compartment. Take care that the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity.

3 Put the cover of the battery compartment back on to

the back of the remote control.

Replacing the batteries:

If the combination unit cannot be operated properly with the remote control or does not work at all, the batteries must be replaced.

Always replace both batteries, in order to be able to use

the remote control at full capacity again.

Note:

Used batteries may not be disposed of in household waste. Throw away used batteries at a waste collection or disposal point or there, where you bought the batteries.

If you should want to dispose of the remote control of the combination unit itself, then you have to remove the batteries beforehand!

After having set up the combination unit, you can now connect it to a television. The combination unit can be connected to a television with PAL, NTSC and SECAM television standards.

If you would like to use the combination unit with a television with

• NTSC standard, then you have to change the video settings of the combination unit. This can be done in the so-called OSD menu of the combination unit. There you will nd that PAL has been set by the factory as the television standard.

• SECAM standard, then you do not have to make any changes to the settings in the OSD menu. The settings for the PAL standard also enable the combination unit to be operated with SECAM television sets. However to do this, SECAM televisions sets must be able to process PAL signals.

Depending on the type of television, there are dierent possibilities of connecting the combination unit to it:

Connecting to a television by means of a scart cable/RGB

Note:

The best quality connection is achieved by connecting the combination unit to the television by means of a scart cable via the RGB input. Choose this connection variant if the television has an RGB input. If you are not sure, check this by looking at the operating instructions of the television.

To connect the combination unit to a television by means

of a scart cable:

Note

To guarantee that the remote control works perfectly:

• Always point the remote control at the combination unit

• Ensure that there are no obstacles between the remote control and the combination unit, which prevent reception

• Do not move more than 5 meters away from the combination unit when using the remote control

Otherwise disturbances can arise when operating the combination unit with the remote control.

1 Plug the supplied scart cable into the scart jack of the

combination unit.

2 Plug the other end of the scart cable into the scart jack

of the television.

3 Set the television to RGB mode in the AV channel. If

you are not sure how to carry out this setting, then consult the operating instructions of the television.

Also look at the chapter “Setting video output” for more information on this subject.

KH 2370

Connecting to a television by means of S-Video

1 Plug in the supplied cinch cable into the video jack of

the combination unit.

Note:

For this connection variant, the television must have an S-Video input and two unassigned cinch jacks.

If you are not sure whether

• the television can use S-Video, then consult the operating instructions of the television

• it has unassigned cinch jacks, then check this on the back of the television

To connect the combination unit by means of S-Video to

the television:

1 Plug in the S-Video cable into the jacks labelled S-Vid-

eo of the combination unit.

2 Plug in the other end of the S-Video cable in the S-Vid-

eo jacks of the television.

3 Plug in one cinch cable into the AUX IN L cinch jack of

the combination unit.

4 Plug in the other end of the cinch cable into the audio

jack for the left channel on the television.

5 Plug in another cinch cable into the AUX IN R cinch

jack of the combination unit.

6 Plug in the other end of this cinch cable into the audio

jack for the right channel on the television.

7 Set the television to the AV channel, which reproduc-

es the S-Video signal. If you are not sure how to carry out these settings, then consult the operating instructions of the television. In addition, check the operating instructions to see whether you have to carry out any further settings on the television.

Also look at the chapter “Setting video output” for more information on this subject.

Connecting to a television by means of video input (composite video)

If you would like to connect the combination unit to a television, which

• is not capable of using S-Video and

• does not have a scart jack, but has cinch jacks

then connect it by means of the video input (the so-called

“composite video”–connection variant). To do this:

2 Plug in the other end of the cinch cable into the corre-

sponding cinch jack of the television.

3 Plug in one cinch cable into the AUX IN L cinch jack of

the combination unit.

4 Plug in the other end of the cinch cable into the audio

jacks for the left channel on the television.

5 Plug in another cinch cable into the AUX IN R cinch

jack of the combination unit.

6 Plug in the other end of this cinch cable into the audio

jacks for the right channel on the television.

7 Check the operating instructions whether any other

possible settings are necessary on the television.

Connecting the antenna to the combination unit:

To pick up radio stations the combination unit has

• a dipole antenna for very high frequency (VHF/FM) broadcasting stations, which is rmly mounted on the back of the combination unit and

• a loop antenna for medium wave (AM) broadcasting stations, which is part of the scope of supply. First of all you have to connect this antenna to the combination unit.

1 Lift the stand of the loop antenna, which has been

folded inside, to the outside.

2 Lock the plastic clips on the loop antenna into the slits

on the stand. If you can hear that the plastic clips have locked into the slit, this means that the loop antenna has to be upright.

3 Turn the combination unit around. On the back you

will nd a black double terminal labelled AM. Insert one lead of the antenna cables into each of the terminals. The medium wave antenna is now operational.

Connect the headphones to the combination unit

Plug in the jack plug of the headphones into the headphones jack PHONES of the combination unit.

Connecting to digital audio components

If you have a Dolby Digital or DTS amplier, then you can connect the combination unit to it. To do this, you need

KH 2370

a coaxial cable which can be bought in specialised audio equipment shops.

• the cable of the center loudspeaker into the terminal marked Center

1 Plug in the coaxial cable into the COAXIAL jack of the

combination unit.

2 Plug in the other end of the coaxial cables into the cor-

responding jack on the Dolby Digital/DTS amplier.

Connect the surround loudspeakers and subwoofer to the combination unit

The supplied surround loudspeakers are connected to the combination unit by means of the supplied loudspeaker cables. Use the three shorter loudspeaker cables to connect

• the center loudspeaker and

• the front right and left surround loudspeakers

to the combination unit. Use both the long loudspeaker cables to connect

• the rear right and left surround loudspeakers

to the combination unit. The subwoofer is connected to the combination unit by means of one of the supplied cinch cables.

The supplied surround loudspeakers are identical. You can,

e. g., use each of the loudspeakers as center loudspeaker, front or rear surround loudspeaker.

1 To connect the surround loudspeakers, insert each

• end of the red leads of the loudspeaker cable into the red terminal and

• end of the black leads of the loudspeaker cable into the black terminals

on the back of the loudspeaker.

• the cable of the rear right loudspeaker into the terminal marked Rear R

• the cable of the rear left loudspeaker into the terminal marked Rear L

4 To connect the subwoofer: Plug in the supplied cinch

cable into the SUBWOOFER cinch jack of the combination unit.

Positioning the surround loudspeakers

To provide an optimal sound, the loudspeakers should be positioned as follows:

• Front right and left surround loudspeakers on the right and left of the television

There are two versions of VCDs:

• Version 1.1 VCDs/S-VCDs can only play audio and video data.

• Version 2.0 VCDs/S-VCDs have so-called PBC (Playback Control) functions. In addition, xed images with higher resolution can be played back

What are titles and chapters?

The largest units of picture and sound units on DVDs are called titles; on many DVDs, the (main) lm has title number 01. For bonus material (e. g. lm trailers, background information etc.), which is available on many DVDs, other title numbers can possibly be used.

The next smallest picture and sound units below titles are

called chapters. If the title(s) of a DVD is(are) subdivided into chapters, then numbers are allocated to them and if these numbers are entered, then the chapters can be selected directly.

Please note that not on all DVDs

• is(are) the title(s) subdivided in (numbered) chapters

• are the chapters also described as scenes (e. g. in the main menu of DVDs)

Glossary/Index

What are DVDs, VCDs and S-VCDs?

DVDs

DVD is the abbreviation for Digital Versatile Disc. DVDs serve to store audio and video data; they are available in 8 cm and 12 cm (diameter) formats. DVDs oer – thanks to their storage capacity which is many timer higher than CDRs/CD-RWs – a playback duration of the audio and video data stored on them of up to eight hours.

VCDs/S-VCDs

Video-CD (VCD) and Super Video-CD (S-VCD) describe two methods for compressed– i.e. to save space – storage of lms on CDs. VCDs and S-VCDs are available in 8 cm and

12 cm (diameter) formats. Their storage capacity is many

times lower than that of DVDs. Therefore they only oer a playback duration of the audio and video data stored on

Scart

Scart describes a 21-pin standard plug-type connection through which the RGB signals, video signals and S-Video signals as well as quite a few control and additional signals are transmitted.

S-Video

When connecting a DVD player to a television via S-Video, brightness and colour signals are separated; this achieves a higher focus and a lower so-called “coloured noise”. Coloured noise is what one calls the overlaying of the coloured, mostly strongly saturated parts of a video image made by an irregular, turbulent structural disturbance.

Composite video

Video signal or FBAS signal; this is a picture signal in which both colour and brightness information is contained simultaneously.

KH 2370

Decoder

SECAM

The sound on DVDs with home cinema surround sound is stored in a coded form on the DVD. There are dierent coding formats for dierent purposes, e. g. AC-3 to play Dolby Digital surround sound. To be able to play coded sound, the playback unit (e. g. the combination unit) must have a so-called decoder, which transforms the coded signals back into music or sound.

The eBench KH 2370 combination unit has an AC-3 decod-

er (for Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound signals).

Dolby Surround

Dolby Surround is an analog sound format whereby the two channels of a stereo sound signal are used to accommodate surround sound information for other channels. With a Dolby Surround Decoder, the signals are transformed back into sound or music and are conducted to two additional loudspeakers, which are to be placed behind the listening position.

Dolby Prologic

By comparison with the Dolby surround sound format, in the case of Dolby Prologic a further channel is used in the stereo signal; this is the so-called “Center” channel.

The corresponding center loudspeaker is to be placed in

the centre between the stereo loudspeakers. The lowest tones are to be conducted to a low tone loudspeaker, the so-called “subwoofer”. The subwoofer can be placed at any position in the room; the reason for this is that the low tones which are emitted by the subwoofer, can scarcely be exactly located by the human ear.

Dolby Digital (5.1)

Dolby Digital, also called AC3, is a digital sound format, by which up to six separate audio channels can be transported. In the case of most of the current DVDs, the sound is stored in the so-called “Dolby Digital 5.1” format; the “5” in the description “5.1” stands for three front and two back surround sound channels, the “1” for the low tone channel.

SECAM is the abbreviation for the French “système en couleur avec mémoire”. SECAM is the normal and most commonly used colour television standard in France and many Eastern European countries.

Audio CDs

Audio CDs only contain audio data; these are also available with 8 cm and 12 cm (diameter) formats. The playback duration of the audio data stored on them is 20 minutes (8 cm format) and 74 minutes (12 cm format) respectively.

Audio data with CDA format are stored on audio CDs.

MP

MP3 describes a procedure or format to compress audio data developed by the Fraunhofer Institut. Pieces of music compressed in MP3 format only have a fraction of their original size, which allows far more music to be stored e. g. on CD-Rs/CD-RWs than on normal audio CDs, on which audio data is stored in CDA format.

JPEG

JPEG (abbreviation of Joint Photographics Expert Group) describes a commonly used graphic format developed by the same named organisation, with which picture data in coloured and grey tones is compressed.

What are folders?

In contrast to audio CDs, the titles of a CD-R/CD-RW with MP3 or JPEG les can be stored in folders, for example, to organize titles from dierent genres. If the MP3 les were stored in folders, then the structure of an MP3 CD can look like the following, for example:

MP3 CD Folder MP3 les

What are PAL, NTSC and SECAM?

PAL

PAL is the abbreviation for Phase Alternation Line. PAL is in Central and Western Europe (exception: France, see abbreviation SECAM), the normal and commonly used colour television standard.

NTSC

NTSC is the abbreviation for National Television System Committee. NTSC is a colour television standard which is used, above all, in the USA and in Japan.
