Jack and cables
Description
HDMI jacks
To transmit digital video and
digital audio signals. Use HDMI
cables.
A video signal input to this unit is output from the
output terminals in MONITOR OUT for the same kind
of signal as the input signal.
For example, if a VCR with a composite output signal
and a DVD player with a COMPONENT VIDEO
output signal are connected, connect both VIDEO jack
and COMPONENT VIDEO jack in MONITOR OUT
to the video monitor.
If an HDMI input compatible monitor is connected, this
unit automatically converts an analog signal that is
input from a video input terminal to a digital video
signal, and then output it from the HDMI OUT jack.
