There is no audio and video from the IEEE

The device is not turned on. Turn the device power on.

 

1394 device.

• No tape is inserted in the DVCR.

 

 

• The media is blank (has no recording).

 

 

• The play command failed. Try pressing PLAY again on the

 

 

 

device’s remote control or front panel.

 

 

• The device is already in use (for example, the device is cur-

 

 

 

rently recording).

 

 

• The source is copy-protected or violates copy protection.

 

 

• The device’s digital video signal is not supported by the TV,

 

 

 

as may be the case with an IEEE 1394 signal from a com-

 

 

 

puter. Use analog connections instead, if available.

 

 

• The device is not an audio/video device.

 

 

• Too many other devices are already communicating over IEEE

 

 

 

1394. Remove or stop some devices and try again.

The IEEE 1394 device cannot be selected (is

The device may be busy with a recording. Cancel the recording.

 

grayed out).

• You have connected more than seven IEEE 1394 devices.

 

 

 

Unplug the eighth device and one other device. Plug the new

 

 

 

device back in.

 

 

 

7.

All IEEE 1394 devices disappear.

• The connected devices must not be in a loop that returns to

 

 

 

the TV. Make sure a device is connected at the end.

 

 

• Disconnect all the cables and devices from the TV. Replace

 

 

 

them one by one to locate the problem device or cable.

 

 

• Use System Reset (front control panel).

 

 

 

8.

An IEEE 1394 device has been plugged in

• The IEEE 1394 connection to the TV or another device is not

menu (not discovered).

• The IEEE 1394 device is not powered on.

 

 

• A device in the IEEE 1394 chain is not powered on. Turn on

 

 

 

all the devices.

 

 

• The device discovery can take as long as a minute to initiate.

 

 

IEEE 1394 cable is too long (maximum of 15 feet between

 

 

 

devices).

 

 

• The IEEE 1394 device uses an incompatible protocol and will

 

 

 

not be discovered

 

 

 

 

9.

An IEEE 1394 device is not responding

Unplug the device’s power cord. Wait at least ten seconds

 

properly.

 

and plug it in again.

 

 

• Some IEEE 1394 devices are not supported by the TV

 

 

 

because of incompatible standards.
