i.LINK-equipped component

•The arrow on the cable connector body should be lined up with the arrow (to the left of the connector) on the receiver for correct alignment. The i.LINK cable should be inserted straight into the connector so that it snaps easily into place. If not connected properly the receiver will not be able to recognize any connected components. Note that the i.LINK cable is fragile and can be broken easily if too much force is used when connecting.

•i.LINK is displayed after unassigned device names (e.g. DV-79AVi [i.LINK]).

•If a connected devices cannot output (playback) a source using the i.LINK connection, [- - - -]is displayed after the input device name (e.g. DV-79AVi [- - - -]). Non-compatible devices cannot be assigned to inputs.

•When the cables for an assigned input device become loose or the power is cut to the device, an asterisk (*) appears before the device name (e.g. *DV-79AVi [CD]).

3When you're finished, press RETURN. You will return to the Other Setup menu.

About i.LINK

2Assign the i.LINK component to the input you want, then make any necessary output settings on the component.

See The Input Setup menu on page 63 to assign the component to an input function on this receiver. Follow the operating instructions that came with the component to make any necessary output settings.

•You can connect several components together using i.LINK. See Creating an i.LINK network below.

i.LINK is a trademark name for IEEE1394, a high-speed interface for digital audio, video and other data found on personal computers, digital camcorders, and other kinds of audio and audio/visual equipment. A single i.LINK connector can both send and receive data at the same time, so only one cable is required to connect compo- nents for two-way communication.
