4-Pin and 6-Pin Connectors
Two different types of connectors are used for IEEE1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin.
The 4-pin connector sends digital audio, digital video and digital control signals
to and from devices.
The TV has two available 4-pin connection jacks, of which two are at the back.
The 6-pin connector also sends digital audio, video and control signals, but in
addition, sends low voltage electrical power.
There are no 6 pin connectors on this TV.
It is not possible to directly connect a 6-pin connector to a 4-pin jack, and vice
versa. In order to connect a 6-pin device to a 4-pin device, an adaptor or adaptor
cable is required (easily purchased from an electronics or computer store).
Connecting a 6-pin device (such as a camcorder) via an adapter to the TV, (if it is designed to receive electrical power from
another 6-pin device) will require that the camcorder be directly connected to the AC supply, or that the camcorder’s battery
power be used.
