Connecting an i.LINK™ device
Your VAIO Z505 SuperSlim Pro notebook includes an i.LINK (IEEE-1394)
connector, which you can use to connect to an i.LINK device such as a
digital video camera recorder.
To connect a digital video camera recorder
Plug one end of an i.LINK cable into the S200 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; your digital video camera
recorder may need to be connected 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.
The i.LINK connector does not supply power to external devices. If the external device
requires power from the i.LINK connector, you cannot use the device with your computer.
The VAIO Z505 SuperSlim Pro notebook 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.
See page 33 for a list of i.LINK cables compatible with your VAIO Z505 SuperSlim Pro
notebook.
