theTVmaynotbeable
toworkwiththeother

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communica-

You can connect an IEEE 1394 camcorder with an IEEE
1394 cable or with analog audio/video cables. In either
case, test using the TV’s remote control to operate the
camcorder over the IEEE 1394 cable.
