Installation; General Instructions - VINCENT SV-122 Manuel D'utilisation

Home theater systems can reach different levels of complexity. Using this receiver, the
system can consist in a minimal configuration of a DVD-Player, this receiver, one TV
and a speaker set. If it is desired to use most of the potential of the AV receiver, it beco-
mes harder to handle the system configuration with lots of components.
Imagine your AV system a general system that is provided with input signals (via its input connectors) and
makes output signals available to components connected to its output connectors.
The receiver's function is to process the audio video signals from different sources (CD, DVD, TUNER) con-
nected to the inputs and to supply them via its outputs to the components connected there.
It becomes clear that it is possible to guide the video signal directly to the displaying device and thus not
feeding it through the receiver. This may be of use if you have connected only one video source device.
In doing so you eliminate the (extremely small) loss in video quality that every unnecessary processing of
signals creates. This solution is also useful if you want to use the coaxial digital audio connection from
the AV-source, because this receiver input is audio-only. The advantage you have when feeding video
signals through the receiver is its capability of switching audio and video signals of different inputs simul-
taneously.
Establish the necessary cable connections for all inputs first. Then add the outputs' cable connections.
The last thing to do is to provide power by adding the power cable.

General instructions:

Note that there is no signal conversion between the two video signal formats S-Video and Composite.
The displaying device will be able to display only the signals of video sources that use the same type
of connection! It is always possible to connect video signals of AV sources that use a different type of
video output directly to the displaying device (TV, video beamer).
Note that „COAXIAL" is an audio-only input. If you want to use it for an AV source as a DVD-Player, the
video signal must be connected directly to the displaying device (TV, video beamer) as mentioned above.
You can use all audio-only inputs (such as „CD, „AUX2") of the receiver for AV-sources that way.
