About peripherals

I cannot use DV devices. The message 'DV equipment seems to be disconnected or turned off' appears

￿	Check that the DV device is turned on and that the cables are properly connected.
￿	If you are using multiple i.LINK™ devices, the combination of the connected devices may cause unstable
	operation. If this is the case, turn off all connected devices and disconnect unused devices. Check the
	connection and then turn on the power again.
￿	You are strongly advised to use only Sony i.LINK™ cables, as using other brands may cause problems with
	the i.LINK™ devices.
