Close-up connection panel
The following sockets are available on the
close-up connection panel:
PHONES For connection of headphones.
L/R For the audio/sound connection (Left and
Right, respectively).
S-VHS For connection of S-VHS or Hi-8
CamCorders only.
Use headphones
You can connect headphones to the PHONES
socket on the BeoVision 5 close-up connection
panel and listen, for example, to a CD from a
connected audio system, or to a video
programme. Connected loudspeakers can then be
muted by pressing the middle of the Beo4 volume
button.
Use a CamCorder
If you connect your CamCorder to the close-up
connection panel on BeoVision 5, you can watch
your CamCorder recordings on your screen.
To watch CamCorder recordings on
BeoVision 5…
> Connect your CamCorder to the VIDEO, L and R
sockets on BeoVision 5 when it is in standby.
Connect a Super-VHS CamCorder to the S-VHS
socket on the close-up connection panel,
instead of the VIDEO socket.
> Now switch BeoVision 5 on and start playback
on your CamCorder – the signal is selected
automatically and the picture from your
CamCorder appears on your screen.
You can select the CamCorder input via Beo4.
Press LIST repeatedly until CAMCORD* appears in
the display and then press GO.
PC connection socket
PC IN For connection of a video signal from a PC.
You can connect the sound signal to the L/R
sockets on the close-up connection panel
described on this page, or to the RIGHT and
LEFT sockets in the V AUX socket area on the
bottom connection panel described on the
previous page. If you connect the sound signal
to the V AUX socket area, you must register
your PC in the EXTERNAL SOURCES menu.
Please refer to Register equipment connected to
BeoVision 5 on page 28 for further information.
Use a connected PC…
> Press LIST on Beo4 until PC* appears in the
display.
> Press GO to select PC as your source.
If you select PC as your source, you can not call up
the BeoVision 5 main menu on the screen without
choosing another source first, such as TV. Note
also that adjustment of brightness, colour, contrast
or tint must be done via the PICTURE menu, and
not via the PC. Refer to ‘Store picture adjustments’
on page 33 for further information.
Do not allow still pictures, such as computer
images, to be displayed on the screen for an
extended period of time, as this can cause a
permanent after-image to remain on the
screen!
