Ieee-1394 Cables: 4-Pin And 6-Pin - RCA Scenium DVR2080 User Manual

IEEE-1394 Cables: 4-Pin and 6-Pin

There are two different types of connectors used on IEEE 1394
devices: a 4-pin connector, and a 6-pin connector.
The 4-pin connector is capable of sending digital audio signals,
digital video signals and digital control signals back and forth
between devices. The 6-pin connector is capable of sending the
same data and signal information as the 4-pin but has two
additional pins for sending low voltage electrical power. The purpose of this electrical power is to
provide the needed operating power to a device that is not connected directly to the household
AC power such as some camcorders. The DVR uses 6-pin IEEE 1394 connectors but does not supply
power to other devices. To connect other devices, such as a digital camcorder, that uses a 4-pin
connector, you need to obtain a 4-pin to 6-pin adapter cable. These cables are available from
electronic and computer stores.
Note: When the DVR is connected to an RCA HDTV, the HDTV does not supply power to the DVR. The DVR must be
plugged into a source of power (wall outlet).
Protect Against Power Surges
• Connect all components before you plug any power cords into the wall outlet.
• Turn off the TV and/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables.
• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded.
Connecting the DVR
To connect the DVR to a DTVLink enabled TV, follow these steps:
1. Connect the female end of the AC power cord to the DVR and male end into an AC outlet
or surge protector.
2. Connect the 1394 cable to any DTVLink port on the HDTV and to either DTVLink port on
the DVR.
