(IEEE-1394) connector.
To connect a digital video camera recorder
❑
Plug one end of the i.LINK cable (not supplied) into the i.LINK
connector on the left side of the computer and the other end into the
DV In/Out connector on the digital video camera recorder.
✍
The Sony digital video camera recorder (DCR-PC7) is pictured; you may need to connect
your camera differently.
On Sony digital video cameras, connectors labeled “DV In/Out” or “i.LINK” are i.LINK-
compatible.
See the manual that came with your digital video camera recorder for more information on
installation and use.
Do not connect more than one digital video camera at a time. The software supplied with
your computer will not recognize multiple cameras.
The i.LINK connector on the computer does not supply power to external devices. If the
external device requires power from the i.LINK connector, you cannot use the device with
the computer.
The computer supports transfer rates up to 200 Mbps; however, the actual transfer rate is
the lowest transfer rate of the external device.
The i.LINK features available may vary depending on the software applications you use. See
the documentation that came with your software for more information.
