Using the i.LINK Control Panel
The i.LINK Control Panel lets you see a list of i.LINK devices that are
connected to and communicating with the DTV.
1 To display the i.LINK Control Panel, press the button.
The i.LINK Control Panel appears, which displays a list of i.LINK
devices that are set to Show in the i.LINK Setup menu (page 59).
DTV is always the first device listed. If other i.LINK devices are
connected, they are listed according to their manufacturer’s
model name. If there are duplicate models connected, they are
also designated a number (1,2,3, etc.). If a device is unknown, it is
listed as “Device.”
If no i.LINK devices are connected to the DTV, the message
“There are no i.LINK devices available” is displayed.
2 To check the status of an i.LINK device, move the joystick V or v
to highlight the device name. The background continues to
display the video of the device that is selected.
3 To select a new i.LINK device and change the background video
to that device, press
.
4 To exit the i.LINK Control Panel and return to normal viewing,
press the button (or
EXIT ).
✍
At the time this DTV went to market, the Sony digital cable set-top box (DHG-
M55CV) is the only i.LINK device that is verified to be compatible with this DTV.
Some early versions of the Sony digital cable set-top box (DHG-M55CV) may
not support an i.LINK digital connection to your DTV. If you have difficulty with
the connection between your Sony digital cable set-top box (DHG-M55CV) and
your DTV, contact Customer Information Service Center at
1-800-222-SONY(7669). In most cases you can continue to use your set-top
box with your DTV, using an analog audio/video connection (as shown on
page 26), instead of the i.LINK digital connection (also shown on page 26).
✍
If the i.LINK device is not listed in the i.LINK Control Panel, you need to
change the i.LINK Setup option from Hide to Show (see page 59).
You can also access the
i.LINK Control Panel using the
the button on the DTV’s front
panel. For details, see page 10.
