Connecting Using Hdmi - Pioneer DV-79AVi Operating Instructions Manual

02 Connecting up
The system will not work if the connected
components form a loop. If a loop is detected,
the message LOOP CONNECT shows in the
display. Figs. 3 and 4 show connections that
form a loop.

Another consideration when connecting
i.LINK devices is the speed of the interface. At
present there are three speeds; S100
(slowest), S200 and S400 (fastest). This player
uses the S400 type. Although you can use
components with different speeds together,
we recommend connecting slower speed
components at the edge of the network if
possible (shown by the shaded boxes in figs.
1 and 2). This will keep the network free of
bottlenecks.
When used within an i.LINK network, this
player must be on for the i.LINK connection to
be maintained. Other components in the
network may or may not maintain the connec-
tion in standby (none will when the power is
completely off)—check the operating instruc-
tions supplied with individual components.
Note that the audio may be momentarily inter-
rupted if a component in the i.LINK network is
switched on/off, or its i.LINK connection is
switched on/off.
