About i.LINK
This section explains the specifications and
features of i.LINK.
What is i.LINK?
i.LINK is a digital serial interface designed to
integrate devices equipped with i.LINK
connectors. i.LINK allows your device to:
• Perform two-way transmission and reception of
data such as digital audio and digital video
signals.
• Control other i.LINK devices.
• Easily connect multiple devices with a single
i.LINK cable.
Your i.LINK device is capable of connecting to a
wide range of digital AV devices for data transfer
and other operations.
Other advantages include the following feature.
When connected to multiple i.LINK devices,
your i.LINK device can perform data transfer and
other operations not only
with the directly connected devices but also with
any of the devices that are connected to those
devices. Therefore, you do not need to be
concerned with device connection order.
However, depending on the features and
specifications of the connected devices, you may
need to use certain functions differently, and you
may not be able to transfer data or perform certain
operations.
i.LINK, a nickname for IEEE 1394 proposed by
Sony, is a trademark supported by many
companies worldwide.
IEEE 1394 is an international standard defined by
IEEE, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers, Inc.
Note
The camcorder can be connected to one device with the
i.LINK cable (DV cable). When you connect with an
HDV or DV device that has two or more i.LINK
connectors, refer to the operating instructions supplied
with the connected device.
