6. Connect the Video Monitor Output j jacks
on the receiver to the composite or S-Video input of
your television monitor or video projector.
VIDEO CONNECTION NOTE:
Y Composite and S-Video signals may only be viewed
in their native formats. The AVR 225 will not convert
signals from composite to S-Video, or vice versa.
S-Video inputs may only be viewed when the
AVR 225 is connected to a TV set or video display
with S-Video capability. If you use both standard
composite video and S-Video sources in your
system, it is important that you connect both an
S-Video cable and a standard composite video
cable (a coax cable with an RCA plug on both ends)
between the AVR 225 and your TV or projector.
When it is necessary to make both types of
connections to your TV set, use different inputs if
possible. Consult the instructions for your TV set or
projector for more information on connecting both
types of signals.
