b. Y/C

If your S-Video equipment and cabling has the usual 4-pin mini-DIN

connectors, you will need an ‘S-Video to dual BNC’ adapter. Attach the Y
(luma) connector of your device to the second analog BNC connector row
(labeled Pb). Attach the C (chroma) connector to the third analog connector
(labeled Pr).

c. Composite - Attach the device’s connector to the first (top) analog connector.

2. Connect 3Play’s audio outputs:

a. Analog audio – Connect external audio devices to the connectors in the AUDIO

OUT section.

Note that there are two rows of connectors; Connectors numbered 1a and so-
on provide Output A sound, while 2a etc. are assigned to Output B. These two
output sections are configured and controlled separately in the Replay Desktop.

Aux (Row 3) – carries the same audio as either Output A or Output

B, depending on 3Play’s current Output Mode.

Digital audio – Use the two BNC connectors identified as 1ab and

1cd in the AES section (below the analog audio outputs) section to connect
downstream AES/EBU (AES3) audio devices.

(A separate digital audio connection is not necessary for SDI output with
embedded audio.)

Hint: 3Play’s SDI and analog output sections can be used simultaneously. For example, you could
use the Component output to view your program on a local analog video monitor at the same
time as you use the HD-SDI connection to supply broadcast equipment.

3.5.4 SUPPLEMENTAL VIDEO OUTPUTS

Additional dedicated video outputs make it possible to connect other devices to 3Play™ for a
variety of purposes, including program output for IMAG (Image Magnification) installations or
flexible monitoring for the convenience of the operator.
