Precautions about i.LINK connections

• Use S400 i.LINK cables that have 4-pin plugs and are shorter

than 3.5 m (11.48 feet).

• Some i.LINK devices cannot relay data when their power is

off.

• Do not make the following loop connections:

Displaying a D-VHS image

To watch a D-VHS image, press i.LINK on the remote control

unit or press INPUT on the Media Receiver to select i.LINK.

Useful and important notification

Useful information

• D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can play back

digital TV programs recorded using this system.

• D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can record only

digital TV programs. Using i.LINK, those recorders cannot

record conventional TV channels nor contents coming from

external input sources.

• This system can be simultaneously connected with up to two

D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK. You can control one of

these D-VHS recorders (basic functions only).

• Some D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK may not

allow this system to control them through the control panel

screen, or to display images and output sound.

• To record digital TV programs using connected D-VHS

recorders, use D-VHS tape. You cannot use VHS tape nor S-

VHS tape.

• Some D-VHS recorders connected though i.LINK may not

allow this system to play back images and sound recorded

on VHS tape, S-VHS tape, or (if with analog signals) D-VHS

tape. If this is the case, connect the analog output terminals

on the D-VHS recorder to INPUT 1, 2, 3, or 4 terminals on this

system. See page 67.

• This system supports the Digital Transmission Content

Protection (DTCP) technology. DTCP is a copy protection

technology that presents data coding and device

authentication.

• i.LINK may not allow copy-restricted video, audio, and other

data to be copied from one i.LINK device to another. It also

may not allow video, audio, and other data to be transferred

with equipment that does not support the DTCP.

• Connection with a personal computer or its peripheral

device can result in malfunction.

• Some TV programs may not allow D-VHS recorders to record

or play back properly.

Precautions

• While one D-VHS recorder connected through i.LINK is

recording or playing back, do not switch on or off the other

connected D-VHS recorder that is not in use. Do not connect

or disconnect the i.LINK cable from that D-VHS recorder.

Doing so can result in image and sound interruption.

• Some D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK cannot relay data

when their power is off. Check the instruction manual that

came with your D-VHS recorder.
