17CONNECTIONSS-video, or “separate” video, transmits the chrominance and luminancecomponents using separate wires contained within a single cable. Theplug on an S-video cable contains four metal pins, plus a plastic guidepin. Be careful to line up the plug correctly when you insert it into thejack on the receiver, source or video display.Figure 10 – S-VideoComponent video separates the video signal into three components –one luminance (“Y”) and two subsampled color signals (“Pb” and “Pr”) –that are transmitted using three separate cables. The “Y” cable is color-coded green, the “Pb” cable is colored blue and the “Pr” cable is col-ored red.Figure 11 – Component VideoIf it’s available on your video display, component video is recom-mended as the best quality connection, followed by S-video and thencomposite video.AntennasThe AVR 145 uses separate terminals for the included FM and AMantennas that provide proper reception for the tuner.The FM antenna uses a 75-ohm F-connector.Figure 12 – FM AntennaThe AM loop antenna needs to be assembled. Then connect the twoleads to the screw terminals on the receiver.Figure 13 – AM AntennaRS-232 Serial PortThe RS-232 serial port on the AVR 145 is used only for data. IfHarman Kardon releases a software upgrade for the receiver’s operatingsystem at some time in the future, the upgrade may be downloadedto the AVR using this port. Complete instructions will be provided atthat time.Componentvideo cableCompositevideo cable
