The VP415 has outputs suitable for both RGB monitors and CVBS
monitors. Vanous connection possibilities arc described below. Also
refer to Fig. 2 • ·Connection and adaptor cables·.
Nott:Some moniton. have a ·time•constant' ~witch for u,c with a VCR;
this should be set to the ·normal' (i.e. non-VCR) position for

This
is
a direct connection. ensuring the highest quality picture and. if
the monitor is equipped for it. stereo sound.
It is also possible 10 use a TV receiver if it is fitted with a Euroconneclor
socket.
Connect the cable supplied between the AIV EUROCONNECTOR
wcket on the rear of the player and the corrc~ponding sockel on the
monitor.
This connection carries both ROB and CVBS signals. Optimum
picture quality is ohtained if the ROB signals arc used. Therefore if the
monitor accepts both RGB and CVBS signals. ensure that it is switched
to ROB input.

remote control handset.
If a disc con1ains stereo sound, this will be reproduced stereophonically
when bo1h channels arc in operation.
Noll!:
If either audio channel is switchetl off. then the remaining audio
signal is rooted to both output channels. This avoids ·one-sided' sound
from a dual-language disc
REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET (Fi,:s. l and3)
Normally. the VP415 operates by remote control from the infra-red
remote control handset ~upplicd. The control hullon~ on lhis hand~cl
have been grouped into logically-related sections.
The remote control handset controls all play functions, audio and
memory controls and also accesses specified program pans.
The handset can he used in conjunction with the infra-red detector on
the VP415 itself. or. when a Euroconnccmr connection is used. with
the infra-red detector on the monitor (dependent on ac1oal monitor
model). In the latter case. the RC IR/EURO switch on the rear of the
VP415(!>CcFig. l)mustbe~etloEURO.
When using the handset. point it directly at the infra-red detcclor on
the front of the player (or monitor). If 1his is not pos.~ihlc. or not
convenient, the remote control cable supplied can be connected
between the handset and the player (sec ·Wired remote con1ror earlier
in this section). The handset require~ 4 X 1.5 volt haucncs. type ROJ or
UM4. located in its base (Sec Fig. 3).
