SCART connector information
Some video devices in Europe only have SCART connectors. This type of connector includes video
and audio, whereas composite or S-video connectors include only video.
If your TV or VCR only has a SCART connector, you need a SCART cable adapter to connect to
Rainbow Runner. If you don't already have a SCART adapter, you should be able to purchase one
from your local electronics store.
To connect your TV or VCR to Rainbow
Runner output, you need a SCART adapter
with 3 female connectors – 2 audio and
1 video.
To connect your VCR to both Rainbow
Runner input and output, instead you need
a SCART adapter with 6 male connectors –
2 audio inputs, 1 video input, 2 audio
outputs, 1 video output. To connect a
Rainbow Runner audio cable to a SCART
adaptor with male RCA audio connectors,
you also need 4 male-to-male adapters.
There are different SCART adapters for
composite and S-video. If you're not sure
which your TV or VCR supports, see its
manual. If your TV or VCR uses S-video,
the video connectors on your SCART
adapter should be for S-video cables instead
of composite (RCA) video cables.
To use a SCART adapter, connect your
Rainbow Runner audio and video cables to the
SCART adapter, then connect the adapter to
your TV or VCR. For more information on
connecting to a TV or VCR, see
