Choose one of the two methods for connecting to a TV.  
Reset the system if a communication failure occurs, or if the Link indicator (blue LED) on the wireless receiver does  
not light up and the "REAR CHK" message blinks on the main unit's display.  
Reset the system while the main unit and the wireless receiver module (SWA-3000) are in Power Standby mode.

METHOD 2 Component (Progressive Scan) Video  
Best Quality  
Caution  
If your television is equipped with Component Video inputs, connect a component video  
cable (not supplied) from the Pr, Pb and Y jacks on the back panel of the system to the  
corresponding jacks on your television.  
When the wireless receiving module setting is complete, no audio signal is output from the Rear Speaker OUT ports on the back  
of the main unit.  
•
The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless receiver module. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.  
For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless receiver module location is clear of any  
obstructions.  
•
•
When the Progressive scan mode is selected, the VIDEO output (Yellow) and  
SCART output does not output any signal.  
•
Note  
Sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers in DVD 5.1-CH or Dolby Pro Logic II mode only.  
In 2-CH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers.  
•
•
Note  
Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening position. If the wireless receiver module is too close to the main  
unit, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.  
•
•
•
If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, Bluetooth equipment, or any other device that uses the same  
frequency (2.4GHz) near the system, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.  
The transmission distance of radio wave is about 33 feet, but may vary depending on your operating environment.  
If a steel-concrete wall or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless receiver module, the system may not operate at  
all, because the radio wave cannot penetrate metal.

P.SCAN(Progressive Scan) Function  
Connecting External Components  
Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire  
picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines  
displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.  
Connecting an External Analog Component  
Example: Analog signal components such as a VCR.  
Press STOP button.  
1
2
If playing a disc, press the STOP button twice so that “STOP”, appears on the display.  
•
Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote control for over 5 seconds.  
Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan"  
•
alternately.  
When you select P.SCAN, "P.SCAN" will appear on the display.  
•
•
To set P.Scan mode for DivX discs, press the P.SCAN button on the remote control for more than  
5 seconds with no disc in the unit (“'NO DISC" on the display), then load the DivX disc and play.  
Audio Cable  
(not supplied)  
If the external analog  
component has only one  
Audio Out, connect either left  
or right.  
What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?  
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)  
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)  
Connect AUX (Audio) In on the Home Theater to Audio Out on the external analog  
component.  
1
In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two inter-  
laced fields (odd and even), where each field contains  
every other horizontal line in the frame.  
The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and  
then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating  
gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.  
One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains  
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are dis-  
played every 1/60th of a second.  
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of  
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.  
An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the  
interlaced scanning process by which a video image is  
drawn in a series of passes.  
Be sure to match connector colors.  
•
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing  
with moving objects.  
Press AUX button on the remote control to select ‘AUX’ input.  
2
You can also use the FUNCTION button on the main unit.  
•
The mode switches as follows: DVD/CD ➝ AUX ➝ USB ➝ FM  
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing  
a still object.  
You can connect the Video Output jack on your VCR to the TV, and connect the Audio  
Output jacks on the VCR to this product.  
•
Note  
Note  
This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support  
Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive  
scan TVs.)  
•
•
Depending on the capabilities of your TV, this function may not work.
