Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically
Adding IEEE 1394 Devices
When an JEEE 1394 device is connected into the HDTV
receiver/controller network and is powered On, the new
device will automatically announce its presence. This
process is called device discovery and can take up to
1 minute. Some non-audio/video or non-compaflbHe
IEEE 1394 devices, such as PersonaH Computers
(PCs), may not announce their presence to the HDTV
receiver/controller. The HDTV receiver/controller
will not be aMe to show these devices in the Device
SeHecflon menu, however, they can coexist and will still
be available to other devices on the IEEE 1394 network
that are compatible with these non-audio/video
devices.
IEEE 1394 cable boxes and satellite receivers may
require that you use the remote control that came with
those devices. For some compatible devices, the other
slide switch positions of the HDTV receiver/controller
remote control may be able to control operation.

If you choose to add the discovered IEEE 1394 device,
the Name for 1394 Device screen will appear. Name
the device or use the default name that appears
Some IEEE 1394 digital devices, such as some DVCRs,
can also operate as analog devices. For example,
some DVCRs can record and play as VHS or S-VHS,
in addition to D-VHS. This allows you to play analog
rental tapes or analog tapes from your established
library or make analog recordings from antenna or
cable systems. To use the analog capability, check the
Analog Connection box.
New 1394 Device Screen
Figure 1
When your HDTV receiver/controller discovers a new IEEE
1394 device, the New 1394 Device screen will appear.
Selecting "Add" will include the device in the Device
Selection menu. Selecting "Do Not Add" will not add the
device to the Device Selection menu. If the IEEE 1394
device does not provide audio and video, you may not
want to add that device to the HDTV receiver/controller's
Device Selection menu. Devices that were discovered but
not added to the Device Selection menu will still be listed
in the Review screen of the Edit NetCommand® menu.
