If it is not possible to ground the unit and devices, turn off the power of the unit and of all the connected devices before connecting or disconnecting the IEEE1394 cable.

ŠWhen the unit is to be connected to a device equipped with a 4-pin type of connector, connect the unit’s connector (6-pin type) first.

ŠWhen connecting the unit with a PC equipped with

a6-pin type ofconnector, connect the 1394 cable

as dictated by the shapes of the 1394 connectors. Bear in mind that
