This permits simultaneous viewing and listening to different sources. • When a Video source is selected, the video signal for that input will be routed to the Monitor Output jacks and will be viewable on a TV monitor connected to the SR7500. If a component video input is connected to the DVD or DSS component inputs, it will be routed to the Component Video Output. Make certain that your TV is set to the proper input to view the signal.
