What should I do if I cannot use my DV camcorder?

If the message appears to indicate DV equipment seems to be disconnected or turned off, the i.LINK cable may not be
securely plugged into the ports on your computer or camcorder. Unplug the connectors, and plug them in again. See
Connecting an i.LINK Device

for more information.

✍

i.LINK is a trademark of Sony used only to designate that a product contains an IEEE 1394 connection. The procedure to establish an i.LINK connection
may vary, depending on a software application, an operating system, and a compatible i.LINK device. Not all products with an i.LINK connection can
communicate with each other. See the manual that came with your compatible i.LINK device for more information on operating conditions and proper
connection. Before connecting compatible i.LINK PC peripherals to your system, such as a CD-RW or hard disk drive, confirm their operating system
compatibility and required operating conditions.
