IEEE 1394 Devices
Symptom Remarks
5. The IEEE 1394 device cannot be selected (is
grayed out).
The device may be busy with a recording. Cancel the recording.
6. When the Input Selection Menu is displayed,
a menu does not display when I press the
MENU
button.
• The IEEE 1394 device does not provide a menu.
• The TV cannot support IEEE 1394 menus.
7. All IEEE 1394 devices disappear. • The connected devices must not be in a loop that returns to
the TV. Make sure a device is connected at the end.
• Disconnect all the cables and devices from the TV. Replace
them one by one to locate the problem device or cable.
• Use System Reset (front control panel).
8. Cannot rediscover a deleted IEEE 1394
device.
The device has been disconnected. Plug it in.
9. An IEEE 1394 device has been plugged in
but does not appear in the Input Selection
menu (not discovered).
• The IEEE 1394 connection to the TV or another device is not
secure or is loose.
• The IEEE 1394 device is not powered on.
• A device in the IEEE 1394 chain is not powered on. Turn on
all the devices.
• The device discovery can take as long as a minute to initiate.
• IEEE 1394 cable is too long (maximum of 15 feet between
devices).
• The IEEE 1394 device uses an incompatible protocol and will
not be discovered.
• The TV can not decode DV video.
10. Cannot view video from an IEEE 1394 DV
camcorder.
Use analog connections for video and audio. You can still use the
IEEE 1394 connection for control functions, however.
11. An IEEE 1394 device is not responding
properly.
• Unplug the device’s power cord. Wait at least ten seconds
and plug it in again.
• Some IEEE 1394 devices are not supported by the TV
because of incompatible standards.
