Video Source Inputs

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.

NOTE

: There is no need to use more than one

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-

ply 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.

NOTE

: These video source inputs can also be

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 RSX-1065 labeled S-VIDEO

IN using a standard S-Video interconnect cable.

NOTE

: Signals from S-Video inputs will only

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 RSX-1065 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.

NOTE

: Signals from Component Video inputs

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 Channel Audio Inputs

A set of RCA inputs accepts seven channels

of analog signals from a 5.1 or 6.1 channel

processor 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

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.

NOTE

: Recording signals are available at all

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 record outputs for VIDEO 1, 2, and 3

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 re-

cording, you will need to connect it to both

analog audio outputs 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 sig-

nals will not be available at the composite video

record outputs.

NOTE

: All connections (both input and output)

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.
