About peripherals
I cannot use DV devices. The message 'DV equipment seems to be disconnected or turned off' appears
Check that the DV device is turned on and that the cables are properly connected.
If you are using multiple i.LINK™ devices, the combination of the connected devices may cause unstable
operation. If this is the case, turn off all connected devices and disconnect unused devices. Check the
connection and then turn on the power again.
You are strongly advised to use only Sony i.LINK
™
cables, as using other brands may cause problems with
the i.LINK
™
devices.
