New 1394 Device Screen
Figure 1
When your media center discovers a new IEEE 1394
device, the New 1394 Device screen will appear.
Selecting “Add” will include the device in the Device
Selection menu. Selecting “Do Not Add” will not add the
device to the Device Selection menu. If the IEEE 1394
device does not provide audio and video, you may not
want to add that device to the media center’s Device
Selection menu. Devices that were discovered but not
added to the Device Selection menu will still be listed in
the Review screen of the Edit NetCommand
® menu.
Name for 1394 Device Screen

If you choose to add the discovered IEEE 1394 device,
the Name for 1394 Device screen will appear. Name
the device or use the default name that appears
automatically.
Some IEEE 1394 digital devices, such as some DVCRs,
can also operate as analog devices. For example, some
DVCRs can record and play as VHS or S-VHS, in addition
to D-VHS. This allows you to play analog rental tapes
or analog tapes from your established library or make
analog recordings from antenna or cable systems. To
use the analog capability, check the Analog Connection
box.

Adding IEEE 1394 Devices
Automatically
When an IEEE 1394 device is connected into the
media center and is powered On, the new device will
automatically announce its presence. This process is
called device discovery and can take up to 1 minute.
Some non-audio/video or non-compatible IEEE 1394
devices, such as Personal Computers (PCs), may not
announce their presence to the media center. The media
center will not be able to show these devices in the
Device Selection menu, however, they can coexist and
will still be available to other devices on the IEEE 1394
network that are compatible with these non-audio/video
devices.
IEEE 1394 cable boxes and satellite receivers may require
that you use the remote control that came with those
devices. For some compatible devices, the other slide
switch positions of the HDTV remote control may be able
to control operation.
