What is i.LINK

i.LINK is an appellation of IEEE1394, which is the digital interface standard defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

Connecting i.LINK (AUDIO)-supported devices allows high speed transfer of data such as digital sound between the linked devices, and their control.

What is i.LINK (AUDIO)

The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E supports “i.LINK (AUDIO)” of the i.LINK transfer format. Accordingly, “i.LINK (AUDIO)” must also be supported for other devices that you want to connect to the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E. The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E does not support other i.LINK transfer formats such as “MPEG-2 TS” used for BS digital broadcasts or “DV” used for DVD recorders, digital video, etc. The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E connected to other i.LINK(AUDIO)-supported devices via i.LINK cable enables you to transfer multichannel digital sound such as DVD- Audio and SACD (video signal is not supported).

Even when multiple devices are connected to each other, you can perform data transfer and control of target devices via another device.

The IEEE interfaces on the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E are designed conforming to the standards below.

1.IEEE Std 1394a-2000, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus

2.IEC60958 bitstream, DVD-Audio, and SACD in the AM824 Sequence adaptation layers of Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol 2.0

Copyright Protection System

The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E supports the DTCP (Digital Transmission Contents Protection) system. The DTCP system uses technologies for data encryption and authentication during the data transfer between the i.LINK-con- nected digital devices in order to protect the copyright of the content against illegal duplication. To enjoy replaying DVD-Audio, etc., the DTCP must also be supported by other devices connected to the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E.

How to Make a Connection through the i.LINK (AUDIO) Interface

Use the S400 4-pin i.LINK (AUDIO) cable to connect the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal on the TX-NR1000/ TX-NR5000E to the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal on the i.LINK (AUDIO)-enabled device.

•When using the i.LINK connection, you need to configure the audio input assignment settings in the “i.LINK” sec- tion of the Audio Assign sub-menu (Some i.LINK-connected devices may require audio output settings).

•The TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E supports only audio signal transmission through the i.LINK (AUDIO) interface. When connecting video devices, you need to make a connection using other terminals for video signal.

VIDEO OUT

Note:

If any other Onkyo product is connected to the TX-NR1000/ TX-NR5000E via i.LINK, system operation can be achieved via

i.LINK cable. In that case, disconnect the connection as it may introduce errors.

In addition to the i.LINK audio connection, make sure to connect the terminals for images such as VIDEO and/or S VIDEO terminals.
