System Control Connections; Tv System Switch (Except For Dv-S88A) - Pioneer DV-S88A Operating Instructions Manual

System Control Connections

Using a commercially available cord with a mini plug
(3.5 mm dia. with no resistance) to connect this player's
CONTROL IN jack to the CONTROL OUT jack of
another PIONEER component bearing the Î mark, you
can control the player as though it were a component in
a system (system control).
• If you connect for system control, you cannot operate
the player directly. Point the remote control unit at the
component (AV amplifier, etc.) connected to the
CONTROL OUT jack to operate.
• When controlling as a system, be sure to make a
connection to the amplifier using an audio or video
cord, even when using only digital components.
• For details, refer to the operation manuals of the
connected components.

About MOD. (Modulation) PAL
• SHRINK
Most models of the newly developed countdown PAL
TV system detect 50 Hz (PAL)/60 Hz (NTSC) and
automatically switch vertical amplitude, resulting in a
display without vertical shrinkage.
• If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you
may not be able to view NTSC disc because the
picture may roll. If the TV has a V-Hold control, adjust
it until the picture stops rolling. On some TVs, the
picture may shrink vertically, leaving black bands at
the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a
malfunction; it is caused by the NTSC = PAL
conversion.
Note
When playing Video CDs, the TV SYSTEM switch has no
effect with playback stops.
