Using the remote control unit
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote control sensor on the
TV. Objects between the remote control unit and the remote control sensor may
prevent proper operation.
Cautions regarding the remote control unit
• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, do not expose the remote
control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area with high humidity.
• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may cause
deformation of the remote control unit.
• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote control sensor on the TV is
under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such cases, change the angle of the lighting or
the TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the remote control sensor.
Antennas
To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections
that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector,
plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal
without tools (Commercially available).

About i.LINK
i.LINK is an interface connection using a serial transfer
system and is able to transfer multimedia data, such
as digital images and digital sound, between devices
that have i.LINK terminals. i.LINK is a term defi ned in
the IEEE1394 (Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers) standard. Currently, the transfer speeds are
at 100 Mbps, 200 Mbps and 400 Mbps, each of them
expressed as S100, S200 and S400 respectively. On
this TV, the maximum speed is 400 Mbps.
i. LINK devices that can be connected to this TV
D-VHS decks, AV-HDD recorders, Blu-ray Disc
recorders, HDV camcorders, STBs and TVs can be
connected to this TV via i.LINK. Other devices such
as DVD recorders, non-HDV camcorders, computers
or computer peripheral devices do not meet the
specifi cations for this TV and therefore cannot be
connected via i.LINK. Even for the types of i.LINK
device mentioned above, device recognition, control,
recording and playback operations may not be possible
on some devices.
Materials that can be recorded with the i.LINK
Only digital programs can be recorded by i.LINK
devices connected to this TV using the i.LINK. i.LINK
recording is not compatible with analog broadcasts or
external input signals (INPUT terminals 1 through 5).
i.LINK connection
Using external equipment
NOTE
• Please make sure the
shapes of the terminal
and the plug match,
and insert the plug into
the terminal straight,
not on an angle.
• Use either one of the
terminals. These two
terminals do not differ
in quality or function.
Only an i.LINK cable is needed
to connect the TV to i.LINK
devices. (VIDEO, S-VIDEO, and
AUDIO cables do not need to be
connected.)
i.LINK device
Connecting two or more i.LINK devices
Up to 16 i.LINK devices can be connected using a
daisy-chain connection with i.LINK cables.
When 3 or more i.LINK devices are connected, branch
connection can be used. With branch connections, up
to 62 i.LINK devices can be connected.
Cautions regarding i.LINK connection
• Please use S400 type i.LINK cables.
• Some i.LINK devices may not relay data if their power is off.
In this case the device should be connected at the end of
any series of connections.
• This TV can relay data during power off, by selecting “Active”
in the “Standby Mode” option in “i.LINK Setup”. (See page
35.)
• Please do NOT use a loop connection as shown in the
diagram.
• When any devices are playing or recording via i.LINK, do
not turn off the power of, or disconnect the cable from
any of the i.LINK devices, even if one or more of the i.LINK
devices are not in use. Doing so may affect the picture and
the sound from an i.LINK device in use.
• If devices such as DVD recorders, non-HDV camcorders,
computers and computer peripheral devices that are not
compatible with this TV are connected to the TV using
i.LINK, other i.LINK connections may be disrupted.
• If device recognition, control, recording or play back, on
an i.LINK connected device does not function correctly,
correct operation may be restored by disconnecting and
reconnecting the i.LINK cable.
• When connecting multiple i.LINK devices, depending on
the specifi cations and the interoperability of the connected
devices, their operation may not be stable. In that case,
disconnecting all devices not in use and changing the
method of connection may result in stable operation.
