Making the connections

Basic connections

Use the [OUTPUT RGB] connector if you are connecting the CG-8 to a computer display or projector. Use
the [OUTPUT S-VIDEO] connector or [OUTPUT VIDEO] connector if you are connecting the CG-8 to a
television or projector. If desired, connect the included card adaptor to the [OPTION] connector (p. 18).
If you're using the CG-8's Sound Control function with an external audio source connected to the [LINE
IN] jacks, connect your audio device (e.g., CD player) to these jacks. For details, refer to "Using an
external audio input source to control the image (Sound Control function)" (p. 41).
921 * To prevent malfunction or damage, you must minimize the volume of all devices and turn off the power before
connecting other devices.
* The volume from the device connected to the [LINE IN] jacks may be diminished if you use a cable with a built-in
926a
resistor to make connections. If so, use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor (e.g., the Roland PCS
series of cables).
