Video Source Inputs

See Figure 4.
There are input connections for five video source
components. Each of the five provides a pair
of RCA inputs for analog audio signals. Each
of the five also provides a choice of an RCA
composite video input or S-Video input for the
video signal from the source component. In
addition, two of the video source inputs (Video
1 and Video 2) also feature Component Video
input connections as an alternative to the com-
posite video or S-Video connections.
: There is no need to use more than one
NOTE
type of video connection from a source com-
ponent. We recommend selecting one type
of video connection and using it for all video
inputs and outputs. As a general rule, using
RCA composite video connections will sim-
plify system setup and operation.
There are also video record outputs (described
in a following section) which correspond to
three of the video source inputs – Video 1, 2,
and 3). For this reason, you should plan ahead
and designate each source component as
Video 1, Video 2, etc. All connections (both
input and output) from a source component
must be made consistently to the same set of
connections. For example, all input and out-
put connections to a particular VCR could be
made to Video 1 connectors.
Also, be sure that the channels are connected
consistently, i.e. left channel signals connected
to left channel inputs/outputs and right chan-
nel signals connected to right channel inputs/
outputs.
: These video source inputs can also be
NOTE
used for additional audio-only sources, omit-
ting the video signal connections.
VIDEO 1–5 Audio Inputs
Using standard audio interconnect cables,
connect the left and right channel analog au-
dio outputs of VCRs or other source compo-
nents to the VIDEO 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 inputs using
standard RCA audio cables.
VIDEO 1–5
Composite Video Inputs
If you use the RCA composite video connec-
tions for a source component, connect the RCA
video output of the source component to one
of the video inputs labeled COMPOSITE IN.
Use a standard 75 ohm video cable.
VIDEO 1–5 S-Video Inputs
S-Video signals use a special cable which di-
vides the video signal into several elements
carried by separate conductors, providing
higher quality than the standard RCA composite
cables. If you choose to use an S-Video input
connection from a source component, connect
the S-Video output of that component to one
of the inputs on the RSP-1066 labeled S-VIDEO
IN using a standard S-Video interconnect cable.
: Signals from S-Video inputs will only
NOTE
be available at the S-Video outputs to the TV.
VIDEO 1–2
Component Video Inputs
Component Video connections split the video
into three signals – luminance (Y) and sepa-
rate chrominance (CB and CR) elements, al-
lowing delivery of a reference-quality picture.
Each of these signals is carried by a separate
75 ohm video cable with RCA connectors.
The VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 source inputs pro-
vide an option for using Component Video con-
nections. If you choose to use Component Video
input connection from a source component,
connect the three Component Video outputs
of that component to the corresponding inputs
on the RSP-1066 labeled COMPONENT
VIDEO IN. Make sure that you connect each
of the three cables to the proper connector (Y
to Y, CB to CB, and CR to CR) and that you
use standard 75 ohm video interconnect cables.
: Signals from Component Video inputs
NOTE
will only be available at the Component Video
outputs to the TV monitor. The ON-SCREEN
DISPLAY system is not available when using
Component Video connections.

MULTI Inputs

These RCA inputs accept seven channels of
analog signals from a 5.1 or 6.1 channel pro-
cessor or source component. When selected
with the front-panel MULTI INPUT button or re-
mote EXT IN button, this input overrides any
other audio input signal.
Use audio interconnect cables to connect the
outputs of the source component to the RCA
jacks labeled MULTI INPUT, making sure that
you observe proper channel consistency, i.e.
connect the right front channel to the R FRONT
input, etc. Depending on your system configu-
ration, you will make six connections (FRONT
RIGHT/FRONT LEFT/REAR RIGHT/REAR LEFT/
CENTER/SUBWOOFER), seven connections
(FRONT RIGHT/FRONT LEFT/ REAR RIGHT/
REAR LEFT/CENTER/CENTER BACK/SUB-
WOOFER).

Video Source Outputs

See Figure 4.
Three of the available video sources (VIDEO
1, 2 and 3) feature outputs that allow you to
send a signal to a VCR or other source com-
ponent for recording. The recording signal avail-
able at all of these outputs is selected globally
using the REC button on the front-panel or the
ZONE button on the remote and is indepen-
dent of the source selected for listening.
: Recording signals are available at all
NOTE
source outputs, including the source selected
for recording. As a general rule, you should
not attempt to record to the component whose
signal has been selected for recording.
The VIDEO 1, 2, and 3 record outputs include
a pair of RCA analog audio outputs plus a choice
of composite video or S-Video output. To hook
up a video component for recording, you will
need to connect it to both analog audio out-
puts and to your choice of video outputs. Keep
in mind that composite video input signals will
not be available at the S-Video record outputs
and S-Video input signals will not be available
at the composite video record outputs.
: All connections (both input and output)
NOTE
from a source component must be made con-
sistently to the same set of connections. For
example, if you designate a VCR as VIDEO
1, you must connect all of its input and output
signals to the VIDEO 1 connectors.
