What is "i.LINK"?
i.LINK is a digital serial interface for handling

digital AV equipment.
When two or more i.LINK-compatible equipment
are connected to this unit in a daisy chain,

sometimes varies according to the characteristics
and specifications of the equipment to be
connected, and that operations and data
transactions are sometimes not possible on some
connected equipment.

Normally, only one piece of equipment can be
connected to this unit by the i.LINK cable (DV
cable). When connecting this unit to i.LINK-
compatible equipment having two or more
i.LINK jacks (DV jacks), refer to the operating
instructions of the equipment to be connected.
