1.3.3 Connecting AudioReQuest to a TV
NOTE: The AudioReQuest cannot use VGA and any other video output
simultaneously.
To connect your AudioReQuest directly to a TV, you can use any of these combinations:
1.
Component output and/or composite (Component recommended if available on your
TV)
2.
S-Video output and/or composite
3.
VGA
While the unit and device to input video is turned off, plug the Component, S-Video, or
Composite video line into the corresponding video output on the rear of your AudioReQuest.
Plug the other end of the video line into the video input of the destination device. If your
TV, VCR, or A/V Receiver does not have Component, S-Video, or Composite Video-In
connections, then you may have to get an RF modulator commonly found in local electronics
stores. If you need a SCART connection (Europe), then you can purchase a SCART adapter
in your local electronics store.
NOTE: You must have the television connected before powering up AudioReQuest
or you will not see a picture. You can reset the TV on by pressing ALT-T (=). Another
option is to have the TV permanently enabled by turning on the TV Lock under Menu

TV Lock. This is useful for setup with A/V Switchers. However, do
not enable TV Lock if you plan to use VGA.
1.3.4 Adjusting Display For PAL
AudioReQuest is capable of displaying NTSC, PAL, and 480i component video modes. The
factory default video setting is NTSC which outputs to composite and S-Video. If you have a
PAL TV, you need to change the settings by viewing the built-in LCD on the AudioReQuest
unit.
When your unit is fully powered on, press the MENU (F3) button. Use the buttons NEXT
(Down Arrow
↓
) and PREV
(Up Arrow
↑
)
to scroll through and highlight the Settings option.
Press ENTER (ENTER) to enter the Settings Menu. Continue using these buttons to scroll and
select TV Settings
→
TV Mode then finally choose the appropriate video setting for your TV.
Press ENTER (ENTER) to initiate the change.
1.3.5 Adjusting Display For Component Video
Additionally, you can set the AudioReQuest to NTSC Composite/Component mode, which
outputs standard NTSC composite and 480i Component at the same time. S-Video and
Component video cannot be displayed at the same time and plugging in both connections in
at the same time may degrade your video signal. If the video you are seeing on the screen
is black and white, you most likely need to change this mode.
1.3.6 Connecting AudioReQuest to a VGA Monitor, Plasma, or Projector
To connect to a VGA monitor, connect the VGA cable provided with your monitor to the VGA
port on the back of the AudioReQuest unit. The other end should be connected to the back
of your Monitor if it isn’t already. PLEASE NOTE: You CANNOT use VGA and other video
outputs at the same time, as it may disrupt some VGA screens.
