connected in the correct order.

ote: This section refers to WinTV products with Video Input.
Connecting a Video Recorder or Set top box
We recommend using a SCART to Composite cable for connecting most VCR's and set top
boxes to our devices, this is because unless stated most of these devices will not be able to
output in Svideo, so if you use a SCART to Svideo cable all you will see is a black and white
image.
There may be a switch on the SCART connecting for <IN> or <OUT>, ensure it is set to
<OUT> so that the signal is sent from the SCART to the composite.
If your VCR or Set top box has a S-video output and your WinTV product has S-video input
then you can use a S-video to S-video lead.
You may also need to connect the Red & White RCA phono plugs into the Stereo Line in for
the sound to be transferred. Simply use a Red & White female RCA to Stereo Jack connec-
tion.
Configuring the Composite channel
Click on the Button MENU and “Suite-Manager” to open the channel manager. Select the
<sources> and highlight the <Composite> or <S-video> source .
The video format commonly used in Europe is Pal-BGHIDK, type a name for the channel and
a description and click on <Save> and <Close>.
