Using the D-Net
English - 114
Connection Options
There are two different connection options for connecting D -Net (IEEE1394) compatible devices.
Select the most suitable option according to your network of audio/video products.
The Direct Device-To-Device Option
D-Net (IEEE1394) permits the chaining of devices, unlike
analog audio and video connections where each device
needs to be individually connected to the TV. This allows
you to connect your D-VHS to your 1394 Set-Top Box
only, then connect the Set-Top Box to the TV.
More IEEE1394 devices can be added to the chain as
needed. Each video device can be viewed on the TV’s
D-Net and information can be sent from any IEEE1394
device to other compatible devices.
The Hub Connection Option
D-Net (IEEE1394) also permits connecting devices using the TV as a hub. Each device is capable of
sending information, which may include audio and video, to any other device on the network.
