Connecting digital video camera recorder to i.LINK port
The above figure displays a connection to a Sony digital video camera recorder; your 
digital video camera recorder may need to be connected differently.
Only Sony digital video camera ports labeled “DV In/Out” or “i.LINK” are compatible 
i.LINK devices. 
See the manual that accompanied your digital video camera recorder for more 
information on its installation and use.
Do not connect more than one digital video camera at a time. The software supplied 
with your notebook will not recognize multiple cameras.
The i.LINK port on the notebook does not supply power to external devices. If the 
external device requires power from the i.LINK port, you cannot use the device with 
the notebook.
The notebook supports transfer rates up to 400 Mbps; however, the actual transfer 
rate is the lowest transfer rate of the external device.
The i.LINK features available may vary depending on the software applications you 
use. See the documentation that accompanied your software for more information.
