Find a suitable place for your MP50A, within 1.4m/4.6ft of your TV screen, panel or
LCD display. Connect the power supply to your device and the power outlet.
Included with your MP50A are a standard video cable with
RCA connectors and an S-Video cable. Plug in the RCA
connector to the video output connector on the MP50A and
connect it to your screen.
For better video quality, we recommend using the S-Video cable
and S-Video connector instead of the yellow RCA connector. For
LCD displays, an optional VGA cable is also available.
For audio output, use the red and white RCA connectors.
Connect this cable to the audio output on your MP50A and
plug it into your TV, external speakers or sound system.
