•For the digital transfer of signals from Super Audio CDs and DVD-Audio discs, connect using an IEEE1394 cable. For instructions
on playing Super Audio CDs ( page 94).
•Assign the IEEE1394 input the input source. For details, see “Setting the IEEE1394 Assign” ( page 102).
¢IEEE1394 network
qUp to 17 devices can be connected using daisy chain type connections.
wUp to 63 devices can be connected using tree type connections.
Do not loop the connections.
e“LINK CHECK” is displayed when an input source to which an IEEE1394 is assigned is selected and connection to the
IEEE1394 device is being checked.
rIf the connection is looped, “LOOP CONNECT” is displayed. Check the connections and undo the loop.
NOTE:
•Do not use an IEEE1394 cable to connect the AVR-4806CI with a computer.
•The AVR-4806CI will not operate when connected to equipment other than that conforming to “IEEE1394 AUDIO (A&M
protocol)” standards or when connected to computer peripherals.
Also please note that operation is not guaranteed even when connected to IEEE1394-compatible equipment. Whether or
not data and control signals can be sent and received between interconnected IEEE1394-compatible equipment depends
on the functions of the different equipment. Please read the operating instructions of the equipment to be connected.
•Use an S400-compatible 4-pin IEEE1394 cable to connect.
•Video signals are not transferred with the AVR-4806CI’s IEEE1394 interface, so when connecting a video device connect
the video signals as well.
