d Remote connector selector switch
Push this switch to the side of the remote control connector
you are using, either the RS232C connector or the
REMOTE (9P) connector.
e S400 connector (6-pin, IEEE1394 compliant)
Connect a DV device or computer using an i.LINK cable.
The following connection types are supported. They are
selected by setting INTERFACE SELECT >i.LINK
MODE in the setup menu (see page 94).
AV/C (Audio/Video Control) connection: Output
DVCAM format digital video and audio signals
(i.LINK MODE set to “AV/C”).
Audio output signals are 2ch or 4ch, as selected by
AUDIO CONTROL >DV OUT MODE in the setup
menu (see page 93).
FAM (file access mode) connection: Input and output
files between this unit and a computer (i.LINK
MODE set to “FAM (PC REMOTE)”).
• If video or audio signals from an external device
connected to the S400 connector fail to be output,
disconnect the i.LINK cable and connect it again,
pushing it straight in.
• Before connecting or disconnecting an i.LINK cable
between this unit and a device with a 6-pin i.LINK
connector, power off the device and disconnect its power
cord from the electrical outlet. If the i.LINK cable is
connected or disconnected with the device’s power plug
still connected, high voltage (8 to 40 V) from the
device’s i.LINK connector can flow into this unit,
possibly damaging the unit.
• When connecting this unit to a device with a 6-pin
i.LINK connector, connect to the 6-pin i.LINK
connector of the other device first.
• Except in playback modes (jog and shuttle modes, etc.),
audio signals output from this connector and monitored
on another device may sound different from the audio
signals played back on this unit.
