• If you wish to perform analog dubbing from a digital source, such as a DVD recorder to an analog
recorder such as a cassette deck, you will need to connect the analog inputs and outputs as
shown below, in addition to the digital audio connections.
• Precaution when using S-terminals
This unit’s S-terminals (input and output) and video pin terminals (input and output) have
independent circuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-terminals are only output
from the S-terminal outputs and video signals input from the pin terminals are only output from
the pin terminal outputs.
When connecting this unit with equipment that is equipped with S-terminals, keep the above
point in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s instruction manuals.
• The signals input to the color difference (component) video terminals are not output from the
VIDEO output terminal (yellow) or the S-Video output terminal.
NOTE:
• When recording to a VCR recorder, it is necessary that the type of cable used with the
playback source equipment be the same type that is connected to the AVR-486 VCR OUTPUT
terminal.
Example: VCR IN → S-Video cable : VCR OUT → S-Video cable
VCR IN → Video cable : VCR OUT → Video cable
NOTE:
• Do not connect two FM antennas
simultaneously.
• Even if an external AM antenna is
used, do not disconnect the AM
loop antenna.
• Make sure the AM loop antenna
lead terminals do not touch metal
parts of the panel.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer’s attention to
Article 820-40 of the NEC which
provides guidelines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of
the building, as close to the point of
cable entry as practical.
