If you choose to use the coaxial connection, it needs to be assigned. For moreinformation about Digital Input Assignment ( page 21).• Precaution when using S-Video terminalsAVR-587’s S-Video terminals (input and output) and video terminals (input and output) have independentcircuit structures, so that video signals input from the S-Video terminals are only output from the S-Videoterminal outputs and video signals input from the terminals are only output from the terminal outputs.When connecting AVR-587 with equipment that is equipped with S-Video terminals, keep the abovepoint in mind and make connections according to the equipment’s instruction manuals.• The signals input to the component (color difference) video terminals are not output from the VIDEOoutput terminal (yellow) or the S-Video output terminal.FGATV/DBS tunerS VIDEOOUTRLAUDIO OUTVIDEOOUTCOMPONENT VIDEO OUTYPBPROPTICALOUTRLRLHDConnecting the external inputs (EXT.

IN) terminals ( page 25).• With discs on which special copyright protection measures have been taken, however, the digital signalsmay not be output from the DVD player. In this case, connect the DVD player’s analog multi-channeloutput to the AVR-587’s EXT. IN terminals for playback.
