1. Connect the input video source (for example, a composite video player) to
the VIDEO INPUT BNC connector.
2. Connect the input audio source (for example, the audio from a composite
video player) to the AUDIO IN RCA connectors noting the right and left
channels.
3. Connect the VIDEO OUT 1 to 5 BNC connectors to up to 5 acceptors (for
example, composite video recorders).
You are not required to connect two acceptors.
4. Connect the AUDIO OUT 1 to 5 RCA connectors to up to 5 acceptors (for
example, the audio input on the composite video recorders).
You are not required to connect two acceptors.
5. If needed, connect the VIDEO LOOP BNC connector to an acceptor (for
example, a composite video display or another VM-5ARII) and set the
termination pushbutton to 75Ω.
6. Connect the power cord to the unit (not shown in the illustration) and then to
the mains electricity. Switch on the power.
