Attach the speaker-cable stickers to make connection easier.

Do not connect through the video cassette recorder.

Due to copy guard protection, the picture may not be displayed 
properly.

Turn the television off before connecting, and refer to the 
television’s operating instructions.

Television with a VIDEO IN terminal

Television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal

Television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive 
output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT 
terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color 
difference signals (P

B

/P

R

) and luminance signal (Y) separately in 

order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

The description of the component video input terminals depends 
on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P

B

/P

R

, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/C

B

/C

R

). 

Connect to terminals of the same color.

After making this connection, select “Darker” from the “Black 
Level Control” in the “Video” tab (

page 21).

S-VIDEO OUT terminal

The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than 
the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and 
luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)

To enjoy progressive video

Connect to the component video input terminals on a 480p 
compatible television. (Video will not be displayed correctly if 
connected to an incompatible television.)

All Panasonic televisions that have 480p input connectors are 
compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another 
brand of television.
