Useful and important notification

Useful information

•D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can play back digital TV programs recorded using this system.

•D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can record only digital TV programs. Using i.LINK, those recorders cannot record conventional TV channels nor contents coming from external input sources.

•This system can be simultaneously connected with up to two D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK. You can control one of these D-VHS recorders (basic functions only).

•Some D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK may not allow this system to control through the control panel screen or to display images and output sound.

•To record digital TV programs using connected D-VHS recorders, use D-VHS tape. You cannot use VHS tape nor S-VHS tape.

•Some D-VHS recorders connected though i.LINK may not allow this system to play back images and sound recorded on VHS tape, S-VHS tape, or (if with analog signals) D-VHS tape. If this is the case, connect the analog output terminals on the D-VHS recorder to INPUT 1, 2, 3, or 4 terminals on this system. See page 50.

•This system supports the Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) technology. The DTCP is a copy protection technology that presents data coding and device authentication.

•i.LINK may not allow copy-restricted video, audio, and other data to be copied from one i.LINK device to another. It also may not allow video, audio, and other data to be transferred with equipment that does not support the DTCP.

Precautions

•While one D-VHS recorder connected through i.LINK is recording or playing back, do not switch on or off the other connected D-VHS recorder (not in use) or do not connect or disconnect the i.LINK cable from that D-VHS recorder. Doing so can result in image and sound interruption.

•Some D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK cannot relay data when their power is off. Check the instruction manual that came with your D-VHS recorder. This system allows you to change the setting for data relay in the standby mode. See “Setting up for i.LINK standby” on page 57.
