Follow these steps to attach a Digital Video Camera to your
AFW-4300.
Using a standard 6-to-4-pin 1394 cable, plug the larger connector
(6-pin) of the cable into the external 1394 port on AFW-4300.
Plug the smaller connector (4-pin) of the 1394 cable into the
1394 port on your digital video camera.
You are now ready to install the 1394 software included with the
AFW-4300. See the installation instructions included on your
CD-ROM jacket cover for more information.
ATTACHING A DIGITAL VIDEO CAMERA

6-pin Connector
STEP 2
When inserting the 4-pin connector of the 1394
cable into the DV camera, make sure the connector and the
1394 port are properly aligned. Failure to do so can bend the
pins and damage the internal connector of the camera.
There are two types of 1394 connectors commonly
used; a 4-pin and a 6-pin. The AFW-4300 has three 6-pin
connectors on it. Digital Video cameras use a 4-pin
connection and may not include the cable. Other peripherals
typically use a 6-pin connection and include a corresponding
6-to-6-pin cable for you to connect the device to your
FireConnect 4300.
