e S400 connector (6-pin, IEEE1394 compliant) Connect a DV device or computer using an i.LINK cable. The following connection types are supported. They are selected by setting INTERFACE SELECT >i.LINK MODE in the setup menu (see page 94).

AV/C (Audio/Video Control) connection: Output DVCAM format digital video and audio signals (i.LINK MODE set to “AV/C”).

Audio output signals are 2ch or 4ch, as selected by AUDIO CONTROL >DV OUT MODE in the setup menu (see page 93).

FAM (file access mode) connection: Input and output files between this unit and a computer (i.LINK MODE set to “FAM (PC REMOTE)”).

Notes

If video or audio signals from an external device

connected to the S400 connector fail to be output, disconnect the i.LINK cable and connect it again, pushing it straight in.

Before connecting or disconnecting an i.LINK cable between this unit and a device with a 6-pin i.LINK connector, power off the device and disconnect its power cord from the electrical outlet. If the i.LINK cable is connected or disconnected with the device’s power plug still connected, high voltage (8 to 40 V) from the device’s i.LINK connector can flow into this unit, possibly damaging the unit.

When connecting this unit to a device with a 6-pin i.LINK connector, connect to the 6-pin i.LINK connector of the other device first.

Except in playback modes (jog and shuttle modes, etc.), audio signals output from this connector and monitored on another device may sound different from the audio signals played back on this unit.

fU (signal ground) terminal Connect to the system ground.
