Harman Kardon HK 3390 Owners Manual - Page 18

INSTALLATION Connect the left and right analog audio outputs of the DVD player to the Video 2 Audio Inputs on the HK 3390. Then connect the composite video output of the DVD player, usually colored yellow, to the Video 2 Video Input. See Figure 16. HK 3390 Figure 16 - Video 2 Audio and Video Inputs NOTE: If you receive your television programming using your TV with an antenna or direct cable connection, connect the TV's analog audio outputs (if available) to the Video 2 Analog Audio Inputs. Do not connect any video output on the television set to any Video Input on the receiver. See Step Five for information on connecting the receiver's Video Monitor Output to the television. Video 3 Source The Video 3 source is used only for playback.The Video 3 source has two sets of input jacks, one located on the HK 3390's rear panel and one set on the front panel. If you wish to connect a video device more or less permanently, you may prefer to connect it to the rear-panel inputs for a neater appearance. You may prefer to reserve the frontpanel inputs for devices connected on a temporary basis, such as an iPod (not included), a camcorder, a game console, or another type of media player with analog audio and/or video outputs. You may connect devices to both the front- and rear-panel inputs simultaneously. To select either device, press the Video 3 Source Selector on the HK 3390's front panel or remote repeatedly. When VIDEO 3 appears on the front panel of the HK 3390, the rear-panel inputs are active. When VIDEO F appears, the front-panel inputs are active. Connect the left and right analog audio outputs of your device to the corresponding Video 3 Inputs on either the front or rear panel, and if available, connect the composite video output of the device to the Video 3 Video Input on the same panel. See Figure 17. HK 3390 Figure 17 - Front- and Rear-Panel Video 3 A/V Inputs To connect an iPod to the Video 3 Inputs, insert the 1/8" mini plug on the A/V cable included with the HK 3390 into the iPod's headphone jack. Insert the left and right analog audio plugs on the other end of the A/V cable into the Video 3 Audio Inputs on the front of the receiver. If the iPod is capable of playing videos or displaying images, insert the composite video plug of the A/V cable into the Video 3 Video Input. NOTE: The iPod classic, iPod touch and iPhone require a special cable (not included) for video playback through the HK 3390. The cable features a dock receptacle at one end, and conventional A/V plugs at the other end that may be connected to the HK 3390 as described above. Visit www.apple.com for more information about the cable. When the front-panel inputs and tone controls are not in use, place the supplied covers over them for a cleaner appearance by snapping the covers in place. To remove the covers, gently press on the left side of each cover so that it pivots out. Since the remote is preprogrammed to operate a Harman Kardon DVD player when the Video 3 source has been selected, use the original remote to control other components, or operate an iPod using its own controls. Step Five - Connect the Video Display Only video connections should be made between the receiver and your video display (TV), unless your TV is the source for your television programming (see note below Figure 16). To view video or images played by your source devices, connect the Video Monitor Output of the HK 3390 to a Composite Video Input on your television or video display. See Figure 18. Consult the manual for your TV so that you understand how to select the correct Video Input. Figure 18 - Video Monitor Output HK 3390 Step Six - Connect the Remote IR Input and Output (Optional) The HK 3390 is equipped with a Remote IR Input and a Remote IR Output to facilitate use of your system with a remote control in a variety of situations. When the HK 3390 is placed in such a way that aiming the remote at the front-panel IR sensor is difficult, such as inside a cabinet or facing away from the listener, you may connect an external IR receiver, such as the optional Harman Kardon HE 1000, to the Remote IR Input jack. If any of your source devices are equipped with a compatible Remote IR Input, use a 1/8" mini-plug interconnect cable (not included) to connect the HK 3390's Remote IR Output to the source device's Remote IR Input, which will pass any applicable remote signals 18 18
