Using the i.LINK interface
If you have a component with an i.LINK connector, you
can connect it to this amplifier using an i.LINK cable.
Since the i.LINK interface does not transmit video
signals, the video signal of i.LINK-connected
components must be connected with other cables (see
Connecting your equipment on page 16 for more on
making video connections). If you’ve already hooked up
the video signal from the component, assign the i.LINK
input to the input function to which you’ve connected the
video signals (see
The Input Setup menu on page 94). See
Checking the i.LINK inputs on page 59 to confirm your
i.LINK settings.
The two i.LINK connectors on the rear of your amplifier
are 4-pin connectors. Use a 4-pin, S400 i.LINK cable to
connect i.LINK-equipped components.
Caution
• If your i.LINK connector comes into contact with
metallic parts of the amplifier other than the i.LINK
terminal, an electrical short may occur. Some cables
have metal parts that may touch the unit when
connected. Please take care to use a suitable i.LINK
cable only.
Important
• Please use 4-pin, S400 cables less than 3.5 meters
long. Although longer ones are available, they may
not work reliably.
• There may be cases where the PQLS/rate control
function and/or the i.LINK audio does not work
properly even when connected to i.LINK Audio-
compatible equipment.
• Do not connect/disconnect i.LINK cables or switch
on/off any components connected using i.LINK when
the amplifier is on.
1
Use an i.LINK cable to connect one of the i.LINK
connectors on this amplifier to an i.LINK connector on
your i.LINK component.
Note
1 Your iPod nano currently restricts viewing of photo images stored.
2 The Video Browse function cannot be used when
Type 2 is set.
