XCLAIM TV can be connected to a Power Macintosh G3 that

has an Audio/Video option card installed.

Connecting XCLAIMTV to your computer

Use the Shut Down command to turn off your computer.

Connect the cable TV or antenna line to the CATV

input ( ) on your XCLAIM TV tuner (refer to the

illustration on the next page).

Noting the pin orientation,

gently

the enhanced S-video cable into the S-Video Output

port ( ) on your XCLAIM TV tuner.

For XCLAIM VR installations

, insert the other end of

the cable into the enhanced S-Video Input port

(

S VID IN

)

on the back of your XCLAIM VR card,

for G3-only installations

, insert the other end of the

cable into the enhanced S-Video Input port on the

Audio/Video option card.

before performing any hardware procedure.

¥ The manufacturer assumes no liability for any

damage, caused directly or indirectly, by improper

installation of components by unauthorized service

personnel.

If you do not feel comfortable performing

the installation, consult a qualiÞed technician

Connect one end of the audio cable (with stereo

miniplug) to the Sound Output port ( ) on your

XCLAIM TV tuner, and the other end to the Sound

Input port ( ) of your computer.

If you like, you can connect a PlainTalk microphone

(or a compatible

line-level

microphone) to the Sound

Input port ( ) on your XCLAIM TV tuner. Whenever

Xclaim Video Player is

not

running, this port provides

a pass-through function that routes audio to the

Sound Input port on your computer, for use by other

applications.

Now you are ready to turn on your computer.

Your XCLAIM TV tuner receives power from the

computer through the enhanced S-video cable. A power

indicator on the front of the XCLAIM TV tuner lights

whenever the tuner is properly connected and power is

applied to your computer. If the power indicator does not

light when XCLAIM TV is connected and your Macintosh

computer is on, make sure you are using the 7-pin

enhanced S-Video cable that comes with XCLAIM TV.

ConnectingVideo Equipment to XCLAIMTV

If you are planning to capture video and sound from a

VCR, camcorder or other external video equipment, you

should make the connections using the input ports on your

XCLAIM TV tuner. These input ports provide a Ôpass-

throughÕ function to route video and sound from the

external equipment to your computer. Once you have made

the appropriate connections, you enable a pass-through

function by selecting the input source using

Xclaim Video

Player

Õs Remote Control palette (refer to the

Xclaim Video

Player UserÕs Guide

for help in selecting video sources).

XCLAIM TV has pass-through inputs for the two major

video formats Ð S-video and composite. (To determine the

format that your equipment uses, check your equipment

manual.) For audio, the two RCA-type audio inputs (for

left and right audio channels) are typically used for audio

pass-through; however, when capturing video to

XCLAIM VRÕs

composite input port, the Sound Input port

() on XCLAIM TV provides the audio pass-through.

To connect S-video equipment, you will need a standard 4-

pin S-video cable (available at most electronic supply

stores). To make composite video and audio connections,

you can use three separate cables, or an all-in-one cable

(three joined cables Ð one video and two audio) with RCA

connectors at each end (available at most electronic supply

stores). The yellow connector is for the composite video, the

red connector is for the right channel audio, and the white

connector is for the left channel audio. The illustration on

the next page shows some typical conÞgurations.

If you are connecting mono video equipment (i.e., only

one audio channel), you can use either the left or right

audio input on XCLAIM TV for the audio connection, but

typically the left (white) audio input is used.

If your video source provides composite video and S-video,

S-video will produce better results

. To use S-video,

simply make the appropriate connection to XCLAIM TV,

then select the ÒS-VideoÓ input source using

Xclaim Video

Player

Õs Remote Control palette (refer to the

Xclaim Video

Player UserÕs Guide

for help in selecting video sources).

Selecting the Sound Input

Before installing and running the software, select the correct

sound input in the ÒMonitors & SoundÓ control panel (or

equivalent). The Sound Input setting should match the

audio input connection that you are using. If you are using

the Sound Input port ( ) on your Power Mac, the Sound

Input setting is typically ÒMicrophoneÓ or ÒSound InÓ

(depending on the particular model and OS version); if you

are using RCA audio connections, the Sound Input setting

is typically ÒRCA InÓ or ÒAV connectorÓ.

Installing the Software

The installation disks included with your XCLAIM TV

install all of the components necessary to operate

XCLAIM VR and/or XCLAIM TV (connected to either

XCLAIM VR or an Audio/Video option card in a Power

Macintosh G3). The speciÞc installation disk you use is

determined by your conÞguration. Before beginning the

installation, quit any open applications and disable any

anti-virus software that may be running.

Insert the appropriate XCLAIM TV installation disk Ð

for XCLAIM VR or G3 Ð into your drive.

Double-click on the Installer icon .

The ATI splash screen appears.

Click the Continue button.

An ATI information and disclaimer screen appears.

Click the Continue button.

The Standard Install window appears. To install only

certain components, click Custom.

Click the Install button.

Before installing XclaimVideo Player, you will be prompted

to specify a folder location.
