RGB (Computer) Input Connection
There are two input jacks available for connecting either desktop or laptop computers. Find the cable that fits
your computer type. The MP8020 comes with two computer input cables. The first cable (Figure 3-4) fits
IBM PC and compatible VGA video systems, and the other cable (Figure 3-5) fits on the end of the first
cable and adapts it to fit AppleMAC II computers.

S-Video Connection
Some video devices can generate S-VHS video, or
S-Video (Y/C). The MP8020 will accept this signal
through the S-VIDEO1 or S-VIDEO2 connectors.
The S-VHS cable has identical round four-pin
connectors on either end (Figure 3-6). Connect one
end to the S-Video jack on the input source device,
and the other end to the S-VIDEO1 or S-VIDEO2
terminal on the MP8020. Remember to connect the
audio cables for sound output.

Use the 3-conductor video/audio cable and insert the video (white) connector into the video output jack of
your video source device, and the other end into the MP8020’s VIDEO1 or VIDEO2 connector.
