MXProDV is configured at the factory to expect specific types of devices to be
attached to certain rear panel connectors. This is known as the
default configuration
and it provides a starting point for setting up your own equipment. The following
illustration of the rear panel shows the MXProDV default configuration.
The DV 1 jack corresponds to MXProDV Channel A, DV 2 corresponds to Channel B,
Y/C 3 corresponds to Channel C, and Y/C 4 corresponds to Channel D.
What this means, in practice, is that if you connect ten different input devices to
MXProDV then turn the unit on, the unit routes the signal coming through the DV 1
jack to channel A, the signal coming through DV 2 routes to channel B, and so forth.
If you want, instead, to have a device connected to the composite video 1 jack routed
through channel A, you have to change the default routing. For more information,
see “Route” beginning on page 92.
Using Headphones
To use headphones, connect them to the Headphone jack (

), which is located
on the rear panel. The jack accepts standard stereo headphones with a miniature
plug. If your headphones have a large plug, you need an adapter to switch it to a
miniature plug.
VCR Selector Switches
Many VCRs have an input selector switch that routes between Line (or AUX, EXT,
A/V, or S) and Tuner. Here are some examples.
See the manual for your RECORD VCR for details.
Some VCRs have more than one VIDEO IN jack (for example, one might be compos-
ite and the other S-Video). Set the switch to match the jack you are using as the con-
nector to MXProDV.
