NetCommand® Controlled Peer-to-Peer Connections

What is a Peer-to-Peer Connection?

Figure 11

Apeer-to-peer connection allows the IEEE 1394 devices in your TV network to talk to each other without the further need of TV intervention once the peer-to-peer connection is established.

For example, the TV can setup a connection for an A/V Disc or DVCR that sends a recorded program to an IEEE 1394 monitor in another room. NetCommand will establish the connection between the two devices. Once the connection has been established, the TV can be turned off or used to watch another device. Recording from digital channels to a DVCR is also a peer-to-peer connection. In this case, the TV is one of the devices in the peer-to peer connection.

Analog or traditional (non-digital) devices can not be used for peer-to-peer connections.

Setting up a Peer-to-Peer Connection

Apeer-to-peer connection is a current connection and cannot be setup as a delayed connection.

To establish a peer-to-peer connection:

1.Press REC on the TV remote.

2.Press DEVICE on the remote control to move to the Source Device section.

3.Press ADJUST or to select the source device you will record from.

4.Press ENTER to confirm selection and return to the “Record to” section.

5.In the “Record to” section, review the destination device (example: DVCR) and duration. Change if necessary.

6.Press REC a second time to initiate recording.

NOTE: Multiple peer-to-peer connections can occur simultaneously, sometimes with the same source device. Also, please note that peer-to-peer connections are NOT listed on the Record List screen.

Canceling a Current Peer-to-Peer Connection

When a peer-to-peer connection has been established, you can cancel the connection by highlighting the source device in the Device Selection menu. Confirm that the on-screen icon for the peer-to-peer connection is highlighted in the Connection Section next to the TV icon, then press CANCEL. The peer-to-peer connection will end and the destination icon will be removed. If there is more than one peer-to-peer connection for the same device, all of the connections will all be canceled.
