• DIN plug (S-VIDEO connection).
This is a round connector that looks
like the PS2 connector of your
mouse (a round plug with several
holes).
If you have this type of connection, you cannot directly connect the GigaVideo70™
transmitter to the PC, but need an adapter. This adapter 'converts' the S-VIDEO signal
into a composite video signal. This adapter is usually supplied with the graphics card (or
PC) with TV-out. You can also get this adapter from your Marmitek dealer (Marmitek S-
VIDEO to composite video adapter, art. no. 09388). This standard adapter does not fit on
all PCs. In that case, please contact the supplier of the graphics card.
To use the TV-out some settings in the graphics card menu need to be changed. This is
different for each PC and operating system, but usually the correct mode needs to be
selected. Select 'composite', 'CVBS' or 'PAL-G'. More information can usually be found in the
PC manual or graphics card manual. Because there are so many different types of graphics
cards, we cannot offer any support.
To transmit sound, you can use the audio out on the sound card of your PC. Please use an
adapter to convert the 3.5mm plug to a double RCA connection.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

The images and sound are perfect, but the infra-red return signal does not work.
Check the following:
• Depending on the local situation, the 2,4GHz signal can reach further through walls and
signals than the 433MHz signal of the infra-red return signal. Try again with shorter
distances.
• Has the IR emitter been properly connected to the receiver?
• Has the IR emitter been properly connected to the IR sensor of your equipment?
• Moving the transmitter or receiver often solves the problem. Even a short distance (30
cm) to the left or right can make a difference.
The sound is okay, but I only get a black and white image.
The video transmitter is receiving the wrong signal. Check whether you have connected a
CVBS video signal to the video transmitter instead of S-VIDEO. Check whether your PC is set
to PAL instead of NTSC or SECAM
I do get images, but no sound.
Your video transmitter can send analogue stereo signals, such as e.g. Dolby Surround. Digital
systems, such as Dolby 5.1 or Dolby Digital, cannot be transmitted
Can I transmit Dolby signals using the GigaVideo70™?
Dolby Surround and Dolby Pro Logic use the Stereo channel of the GigaVideo70™. Digital
systems (e.g. Dolby Digital/AC3 or Dolby 5.1) cannot be transmitted wirelessly. Many PCs give
you the option to convert digital systems to Dolby Pro Logic.
