What is i.LINK?
i.LINK is a digital serial interface for handling digital video,
digital audio, and other data in two directions. i.LINK is Sony’s
term for the IEEE 1394 data transport bus. Digital AV equipment
compatible with i.LINK can be connected using a single i.LINK
cable. The i.LINK interface allows this PDP system to control
one of up to two i.LINK compatible devices (in connection) that
can be identified.
Which i.LINK devices are connectable?
For i.LINK devices, this system supports only D-VHS recorders.
The i.LINK terminals on this system cannot be connected with
other equipment such as DVD recorders, digital video cameras,
personal computers, and PC peripheral devices because of
differences in the specifications.
What can be recorded through i.LINK?
With D-VHS recorders connected to this system through i.LINK,
you can record only digital TV programs. You cannot record
conventional TV channels nor contents coming from external
input sources and personal computers.
Connecting D-VHS recorders
Use the i.LINK terminals when connecting D-VHS recorders.
