Scan is only available from the Component video output. With the

exception of the SCART output, these outputs are picture only.

It is only necessary to use one of the picture connections at any one

time.

Audio CConnections

Digital ooutputs

- The 540D is equipped with an optical and a coaxial

digital output. These allow for a digital soundtrack on a DVD disc to be

sent to a suitably equipped AV receiver for decoding and amplification.

Both outputs perform the same function- simply choose the type that

best suits your needs.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

Analogue ooutputs

-The 540D is equipped with a conventional stereo

RCA (phono) out that outputs stereo audio for connection to a

conventional stereo amplifier. It also has a six channel decoded output

in Dolby Digital 5.1 format that enables connection to a suitable 6

channel amplifier. A DVD Audio disc will only output through the 5.1

analogue outs. See An Introduction to DVD Audio on page 3.

Note:

A DTS encoded disc will only output the DTS soundtrack through

the digital outputs for external decoding.

AC ppower ssocket

Once you have completed all connections to the amplifier, plug the AC

Power Cable into an appropriate mains socket. Your DVD player is now

ready for use.
