Tips for Connecting IEEE 1394 Devices
• Do not loop the last
device in the chain back
to the TV. When the
device chain is looped,
the TV may not be able
to work with the other
devices.
• Place devices that have only a mechanical (two-
position) power switch at the end of the chain or
leave the power switch in the on position. When
turned off, IEEE 1394 signals may not be able to
pass through the device to other devices.
• Place devices with the slowest communication
speed at the end of the chain. Sometimes the
communication speed is marked near the IEEE
1394 connector with an “S” number. The higher the
number, the faster the communication speed. This
TV has a communication speed of s400. Devices
with slow communication speeds can interfere
with IEEE 1394 signals from faster devices. When
setting up a digital recording between a faster
device and a slower device, make the slower device
the source and make the faster device the recorder.
• Use IEEE 1394 cables 15 feet or less in length
between devices.
• This TV is an IEEE 1394a device. It can be used
with an IEEE 1394b system when an IEEE-1394a-
to-1394b convertor is used. IEEE 1394b systems
are capable of greater distances and multi-room
applications.
• The TV can recognize a maximum of seven IEEE
1394 devices at any one time.

IEEE 1394 Camcorders
• Control Functions. Connect the camcorder to an
IEEE 1394 jack on the rear of the TV and test using
the TV’s remote control to operate the camcorder.
If your model does not operate properly, use the
camcorder’s control buttons instead.
• MPEG Camcorders. If you are unable to play
back over the IEEE 1394 interface, use the analog
audio/video connections described in chapter 3,
“TV Connections.”
