IEEE 1394 Device Type Screen

Figures 30 and 31

If the new IEEE 1394 device is also connected using analog inputs, you will need to define the device type. Select the type of device, such as a VCR.

Figure 30. IEEE 1394 Device Type screen

Once the device type is selected, then the Device screen is displayed so the manufacturer can be selected. If the manufacturer is listed, then you may be able to control this device while it is operating as an analog VCR. For example, if the IEEE 1394 device you have added is

a Mitsubishi DVCR, and you have selected an analog connection as a second connection, then you will select Mitsubishi for the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is not listed, select “Other” and use the Learn screens

Be sure to place an IR Emitter in front of the remote control sensor, just as you have done for other NetCommand® devices. It is necessary to use the IR Emitter only when the DVCR is being used as an S-VHS or VHS VCR. When the DVCR is playing or recording digital signals in D-VHS, the TV will control the VCR through the IEEE 1394 cable.

Select the TV input that you used when you connected the video or S-Video cables. You may also select the TV or A/V receiver input you used when you connected the stereo audio cables.

The playback and record control of some devices may still operate via the IEEE 1394 cable automatically, even though you must use the video or S-video cable for the picture. In this case, when you select the device, be sure to select analog (not digital) from the pop-up that opens when the device is selected from the Device Selection menu. With this setup, the picture is shown via the analog connection but control is through the IEEE 1394 connection.
