Cause
• An output signal is not produced from the
i.LINK connector on the source player.
• The selected component is not compatible
with i.LINK audio.
• The input signal is set to 2RF, DIGITAL or
ANALOG.
• The 2RF, DIGITAL or ANALOG input
signal is selected.
• The program format indicators remain lit
until another format source is input.
• i.LINK-equipped component(s) are not
ready.
• i.LINK input setting is incorrect.
• Depending on the upgrade process, certain
components may cease to be recognized by
the receiver.
Explanation
The i.LINK bus has reached its capacity and cannot transmit any more data.
The connection between the receiver and the selected i.LINK-equipped component is unstable. If the
i.LINK cables appear to be connected properly and both the receiver and i.LINK-equipped component are
on, switch both units off, then on again to re-establish the connection between them.
The receiver can't identify the selected i.LINK-equipped component. For example, the receiver may not be
able to identify an i.LINK-equipped personal computer.
The receiver is checking the i.LINK network. It does this when components are added to, or removed from
the network. The sound may be interrupted if this happens during playback.
The i.LINK network cannot function because the connected components form a loop. See Creating an
i.LINK network on page 86 for more on this.
When an i.LINK-equipped component has no name, this message is displayed instead of the proper
component name.
A component is outputting an i.LINK signal that the receiver cannot reproduce. This receiver can only
reproduce signals from i.LINK-Audio-equipped components. See About i.LINK on page 86 for more on
this.
This is displayed when PQLS turns off during playback. The sound may be interrupted momentarily when
this happens.
This is displayed when PQLS turns on during playback. The sound may be interrupted momentarily when
this happens.
When an i.LINK-equipped component name cannot be recognized, this message is displayed instead of
the proper component name.
