1394 Device Type Screen

(Figure ,)

If the new  device is also connected using analog

inputs, you will need to define the device type. Select the

type of device, such as a VCR.

Once the device type is selected, then the Device screen is

displayed so the manufacturer can be selected (see Figure

). If the manufacturer is listed, then you may be able to

control this device while it is operating as an analog VCR.

For example, if the IEEE  device you have added is a

Mitsubishi D-VHS VCR, and you have selected an analog

connection as a second connection, then you will select

Mitsubishi for the manufacturer.

Be sure to place an IR Emitter in front of the remote

control sensor, just as you have done for other

NetCommand® compatible traditional devices. It is

necessary to use the IR Emitter only when the D-VHS

VCR is being used as an S-VHS or VHS VCR. When

the D-VHS VCR is playing or recording digital signals in

D-VHS, the TV will control the VCR through the IEEE

1394 cable.

Connection Screen

(Figure )

The Connection Screen allows you to select which input

on the HDTV Receiver you used to connect the video

or S-Video cables and which TV or A/V Receiver input

you used to connect the stereo audio cables. Match the

input names for the TV Input and AVR Input selections.

If your A/V Receiver has other inputs than those listed

in the menu, those other inputs are not available for

NetCommand.

The playback and record control of some DV camcorders

may still operate by the IEEE  cable automatically,

even though you must use the video or S-video cable for

the picture. In this case, when you select the Camcorder,

be sure to select analog (not digital) from the pop up when

a camcorder is selected from the Device Selection menu.

Then the picture is shown via the analog connection but

control is from IEEE .
