•Do not loop the last device in the chain back to the TV. When the
device chain is looped, |

the TV may not be able | �� |

For some IEEE 1394 MPEG2 amplifiers, you can use the TV to control switching between the TV speakers and speakers connected to the amplifier.
1. Press INPUT to open the Input Selection menu. The |
screen will show an icon for a connected IEEE 1394 |
amplifier. See the Input Selection menu, figure 3. |
2. Press AUDIO to move the highlight to the audio section. |
•Place devices that have only a mechanical
•Place devices with the slowest communication speed at the end of the chain. Sometimes the communica- tion speed is marked near the IEEE 1394 connector with an “S” number. The higher the number, the faster the communication speed. This TV has a communica- tion speed of s400. Devices with slow communica- tion speeds can interfere with IEEE 1394 signals from faster devices. When setting up a digital recording between a faster device and a slower device, make the slower device the source and make the faster device the recorder.
•Use IEEE 1394 cables 15 feet or less in length between devices.
•This TV is an IEEE 1394a device. It can be used with an IEEE 1394b system when an
•The TV can recognize a maximum of seven IEEE 1394 devices at one time.
IEEE 1394 Devices and the Input Selection Menu
Select an IEEE 1394 device to watch from the Input Selec- tion menu just as you would any other device. See figure 3, Input Selection menu.
When you connect an IEEE 1394 device to the TV network and power it on, the new device is automatically detected. Some
Some devices may be a combination of two or more types of devices, such as a recording device that is also a tuning device. Each portion of the device is called a

IEEE 1394 Camcorders
•Control Functions. Connect the camcorder to the TV’s IEEE 1394 jack on the rear of the TV and test using the TV’s remote control to operate the cam- corder. If your model does not operate properly, use the camcorder’s control buttons instead.
•MPEG Camcorder. If you are unable to play back over the IEEE 1394 interface, use the analog audio/ video connections described in chapter 2, “TV Con- nections.”
•DV Camcorder. Connect the camcorder using the analog audio and video connections described in chapter 2, “TV Connections.”

You can connect an IEEE 1394 camcorder with an IEEE 1394 cable or with analog audio/video cables. In either case, test using the TV’s remote control to operate the camcorder over the IEEE 1394 cable.
