When making cable connections
Be careful not to arrange cables in a manner that bends
the cables over the top or around this unit. If the cables
are laid on top of the unit, the magnetic field produced by
the transformers in this unit may cause a humming noise
to come from the speakers.
About the RS-232C connector
VSX-2014i model only
The RS-232C connector on the rear panel is for future
improvements.
About the video converter
VSX-2014i model only
The video converter allows you to connect various video
sources using composite, S-video or component video
connections and the signal will be output through all of
the
MONITOR OUT
jacks. The only exception is
component video input, which is only output from the
component video output. Therefore, if you want to
connect any source using component video, you must
also connect your TV using component video. If several
video components are connected to the same input
function, the converter gives priority to component, S-
video, then composite (in that order).
The following chart shows when the video signal will be
converted fro
m the vari
ous video inputs (left column) for
output to the
MONITOR OUT
jacks (top row):
• The
mark above indicates that the component
video input must be assigned before it will be output
(see
Assigning the component video inputs
on
page 68 for more on this).
• When recording video sources however, you won’t be
able to record sources connected to the component
video inputs. With composite and S-video sources,
they must be connected using the same type of video
cable as you used to connect the recorder to the
receiver.
• Also note that this feature is available with PAL
signals only. For an NTSC signal, make sure you’ve
used the same type of cable for your video
component and monitor connections.
