i.LINK connection If you have the i.LINK component SCDXA9000ES, connect to this receiver with an i.LINK cable (supplied with SCD-XA9000ES). This receiver is compatible with the i.LINK connection with SCD-XA9000ES only. The i.LINK connection to SCD-XA9000ES through other component, and i.LINK connection to other component are not guaranteed. Notes • If a metal object should fall into the i.LINK jack, short-circuiting may occur and damage the components. • Be sure to insert the plug firmly to prevent malfunction. • About the compatible signals, see page 61. This receiver cannot deal with incompatible signals such as DV, MICROMV, or MPEG-TS. Some i.LINK components conforms to copy protection technology and deals with encrypted signals. This receiver conforms to the copy protection technology of DTLA (Revision 1.2). • Sound fields and LIP SYNC function (page 41) are not activated when DSD signals is input to this receiver. Establishing a LINC Before an audio signal can be transmitted between i.LINK components, a LINC (Logical INterface Connection) must first be established between the receiving component (of the audio signal) and the sending component. Establishing a LINC means establishing a logical path for the transmission of digital audio signals between the two components. Each logical path has an ID number. Since the component that sends an audio signal must output the signal to a path, and the component that receives the signal must input it from the same path, the path must be mutually known by both components. During the establishment of a LINC, the following communication occurs between the two i.LINK components. Example This receiver establishes a LINC with SCDXA9000ES. 1This receiver sends a request and path information to SCD-XA9000ES to establish a transmission path for the audio signal. 1 STRDA9000ES , 2 SCD-XA9000ES < 2SCD-XA9000ES responds to the component, agreeing to the establishment of a LINC. The digital audio signal transmission becomes possible only after the communication described above has occurred and a LINC has been established. Notes The LINC is cancelled in the following cases. - When i.LINK cable is connected or disconnected. - When the input selection is switched. 56GB
