Connecting D-VHS Decks (i.LINK
connection)
Using external equipment
About i.LINK
i.LINK is an interface connection using a serial
transfer system and is able to transfer multimedia
data, such as digital images and digital sound,
between devices that have i.LINK terminals.
i.LINK is a term defined in the IEEE 1394 (Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers) standard.
Currently, the transfer speeds are at 100 Mbps, 200
Mbps and 400 Mbps, each of them expressed as
S100, S200 and S400 respectively. On this TV, the
maximum speed is 400 Mbps.
i. LINK devices that can be connected to this
TV.
Only D-VHS decks can be connected to this TV.
Other devices such as DVD recorders, digital video
cameras, computers or computer peripheral devices
do not meet the specifications for this TV and
therefore, cannot be connected.
Materials that can be recorded with the i.LINK
Only digital programs can be recorded by D-VHS
decks connected to this TV using the i.LINK. i.LINK
recording is not compatible with ground-wave
broadcasts or external input signals (INPUT
terminals 1 through 5).
i.LINK connection
Only an i.LINK cable is needed to connect the TV and the
D-VHS deck. (VIDEO, S-VIDEO, and AUDIO terminals
need not be connected.)
D-VHS deck
Connecting two or more D-VHS decks
Up to 16 D-VHS decks can be connected using a
daisy-chain connection with i.LINK cables.
E.g. When only one D-VHS deck is connected:
NOTE
•
Please make sure the shapes of the terminal and the plug
match, and insert the plug into the terminal straight, not
on an angle.
• Use either one of the terminals. These two terminals do
not differ in quality or function.
When 3 or more D-VHS decks are connected,
branch connection can be used. With branch
connections, up to 62 D-VHS decks can be
connected.
Cautions regarding i.LINK connection
• Please use S400 type i.LINK cables.
•
Some i.LINK devices may not relay data if their power
is off. This TV can relay data during power off, by
selecting “Active” in the “Standby Mode” option in
“i.LINK Setup”. (See Page 58.)
• Please do NOT use a loop connection as shown in
the diagram.
• When using the i.LINK, do not turn off the power of,
or pull the cable from i.LINK devices, even if those
i.LINK devices are not in use. This may affect the
picture and the sound from a D-VHS deck in use.
• If devices such as DVD recorders, digital video
cameras, computers and computer peripheral
devices which are not compatible with this TV, are
connected to the TV using i.LINK, other i.LINK
connections may be disrupted.
