Connect the HDMI video outputs of your source equipment to these
corresponding HDMI inputs.
OUT 1
Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your main zone display
device.
OUT 2
Connect this output to the HDMI video input of your second display
device or to another HDMI display device in a second living space. As
the unit has only one processed video path, this signal will be a copy of
the signal on .

COMPONENT / RGB
Component/RGb video
connectors
These inputs are suitable for connection to source
devices which output Component (YUV or YPbPr) or
RGB high quality analogue video signals. These signals
are usually available from DVD players, set-top boxes or
games consoles.
If you are connecting up to an RGB source you will
also need to connect the source's Composite output to
the unit's Composite input to act as a video sync. The
Composite signal should be on the same named input as
the RGB signals.
RGB video outputs on source equipment are often on
SCART connectors. You will need to use a SCART to
'RGB+Sync on phono' breakout cable, available from
your Arcam dealer.
NOTE
When setting up the menus (later in this
manual), you will need to select whether
the three-wire high quality video input is
Component or RGB for each input. This is
done on the 'HQ Video In' line in the Input
Config menu. Failure to do this can result in
a green looking picture or a picture that is
unstable.
AV, DVD, SAT, VCR, PVR
Connect the Component video outputs of your source
equipment to these inputs.
OUT
Connect this output to the Component video input of
your display device.
NOTE
Analogue RGB video output is not available from
the AVR500, AVR600 or AV888. The analogue
three-wire high quality video output is always
configured as Component video.
