Notes on i.LINK devices
❑
The above figure displays connection to a Sony digital video camera; your
digital video camera recorder may need to be connected differently.
❑ Only Sony digital video cameras and ports labeled “DV In/Out” or “i.LINK”
are compatible i.LINK devices.
❑ See the manual that came with your digital video camera recorder for more
information on installation and use.
❑
The i.LINK port does not supply power to external devices. If the external
device requires power from the i.LINK port, you cannot use the device with
your computer.
❑
The VAIO computer supports transfer rates up to 400 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.
