Before connecting
Before connecting cables, carefully read the operating 
instructions for the external device to be connected.
Turn off the power of all devices before connecting 
cables.
Take note of the following points before connecting 
the cables. Failure to do so may result in 
malfunctions.
 •
When connecting a cable to the unit or a device 
connected to the unit itself, touch any nearby 
metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from 
your body before performing work. 
 •
Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect 
a device to the unit or to the unit body. The 
longer the cable, the more susceptible to noise it 
becomes. Since using a cable while it is wound 
makes it act like an antenna, it is more susceptible 
to noise.
 •
When connecting cables, connect GND first, then 
insert the connecting terminal of the connecting 
device in a straight manner.
Acquire any connection cable necessary to connect 
the external device to the system that is neither 
supplied with the device nor available as an option.
If the outer shape of the plug of a connection cable 
is large, it may come in contact with the plug of an 
adjacent connection cable. Use a connection cable 
with the suitable plug size for the terminal alignment.
If video signals from video equipment contain too 
much jitter, the images on the screen may wobble. 
In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be 
connected.
When the sync signals output form PC or video 
equipment are disturbed, for example, when changing 
settings of video output, the colour of the video may 
be disturbed temporarily.
The unit accepts Composite video signals, YC

Use cable compensator when you connect devices to

of video signals that can be used with the unit.
