page 44.
To connect a digital video camera recorder
❑
Plug the DV connecting cable into the i.LINK connector on the rear of
the network docking station and the i.LINK connector on the digital
video camera recorder (the DV connector on some models may not be
labeled as i.LINK, however, the DV connector on Sony digital video
cameras is compatible with i.LINK).
✍
Sony’s digital video camera recorder (DCR-PC7) is pictured; your digital video camera
recorder may need to be connected differently.
Connect only one of the i.LINK connectors when connecting the digital video camera.
See the manual that came with your digital video camera recorder for more information on
installation and use.
The i.LINK connector on the docking station does not supply power to external devices
generally powered by i.LINK connectors.
The docking station supports a transfer rate of up to 200 Mbps; however, the lowest
transfer rate of the connected device is used as the actual transfer rate.
The features of i.LINK that you can use may be different, according to the application
software you use. See the manual or help which came with your application software for
more information.
