The On-screen Display and Setup Menu are only displayed in MAIN (Zone / Path) and available when
Composite Video or S-Video connections are used. Composite Video is the factory default setting (see
section 7.4.9 menu 9.b). The AVM 2 does not provide an On-Screen Display or On-Screen Setup Menu
Display for the Component Video output.
If you are using Component Video, do the following to access the On-Screen Setup Menu Display:
• Complete all Component Video connections (see section 4.3.3).
• Connect the AVM 2 Composite or S-Video output to your TV Monitor’s Composite or S-Video input.
• Temporarily change your TV Monitor to the Composite or S-Video input whenever you wish to
access the Setup Menu (section 7).
4.3.1 COMPOSITE VIDEO
This is the oldest and most commonly used video format. It combines the black/white and colour information
for transmission on a single coaxial cable with RCA connectors. These signals must then be separated again
within the TV Monitor, resulting in some degradation of video quality.
4.3.2 S-VIDEO
The S-Video signal is split into two parts (chrominance and luminance) and transmitted over a multi-
conductor cable with S-Video connectors (5-pin Mini DIN), resulting in better video quality.
