What is the Amiga 520 video adapter?
The Commodore Amiga 520 Video Adapter is a device that allows
you to connect your Amiga 500 to a TV set or a composite video
monitor. It does this by converting the RGB video signal the Amiga
produces for RGB monitors to a composite video signal that a TV or
composite monitor can interpret.

How does the A 520 connect to a video display?
At the front and right side of the A 520
- Video OUT - connects with a color composite monitor.
- Audio IN - connects with Amiga's L and R Audio.
- RGB Connector - connects the A 520 to the Amiga.
At the back of the A 520
- Channel Selector Switch - Matches the TV channel on the TV set for
viewing computer display (L = 5,5 MHz, H = 6 MHz).
- RF OUT - (Radio Frequency Out) - connects with television.
How do I connect my TV set?
1. Make sure both the TV and the Amiga are off.
Warning: Before connecting any cables make sure the power to the
computer is OFF, to avoid damaging either unit.
2. Grasp the A 520 and line up its RGB connector with the RGB video
port on the back of the computer. The two should find together with
just a slight push. (If they do not, check that the pins in the A 500's
connector are straight, and that the A 520 is right side up. Now try
again.

minal.
4. Plug the other end of the TV connector cable into the A 520's RF
OUT port.
5. Connect the main stem of the y-audio cable into the AUDIO IN port
of the side of the A 520.
6. Connect the other two ends of the y-audio cable in the L AUDIO
and R AUDIO on the back of the Amiga Computer.
7. Set the channel selector switch on the A 520 to L or H. (L = 5,5 MHz;
R = 6 MHz).
8. Set the channel on your TV set to the same channel.
How do I connect my composite monitor?
1. Make sure both the monitor and the Amiga are OFF.
2. Grasp the A 520 and line up its RGB connector with the RGB Video
port on the back of the Computer.
3. If your monitor has its own cable, connect this cable to the Video
OUT port on the A 520. Otherwise, connect one end of the TV connec-
tor Cable to the Video IN port on the monitor and the other end to
Video OUT on the A 520.
4. Connect the main stem of the y-audio cable into Audio on the
monitor.

If you have a problem...
If the screen display is not clear, try adjusting the controls on your
television set or monitor. You may not get a picture at all if your control
settings or connections are not correct. In such a case you should
check all your settings and connections. Often the TV may simply be
tuned to the wrong channel, or you may have the brightness turned
off.
The Troubleshooting Chart shown on the following page lists some
of the more common problems and tells how to correct them.
