Connecting Video Components
• To connect the video signal, connect using a 75
Ω
/ohms video signal cord. Using an improper cable can result in a drop in picture quality.
• When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.
• The AVC-A1XVA is equipped with a function for up and down converting video signals. (See page 17)
The signal connected to the video signal terminal is output to the S-Video and component video monitor out terminals.
But the REC OUT terminals have no conversion function, so when recording connect the appropriate video terminals.

The AVC-A1XVA does not have a DD RF demodulator
function. Therefore, you need to use a commercially
available outboard DD RF demodulator and connect its
digital output to one of the AVC-A1XVA available digital
inputs. Refer to the demodulator’s owner’s manual for
further information.
