Message Explanation
BUS FULL The i.LINK bus has reached its capacity and cannot transmit any more data.
CANNOT LINK 1 The connection between the amplifier and the selected i.LINK-equipped component is unstable. If the
i.LINK cables appear to be connected properly and both the amplifier and i.LINK-equipped component
are on, switch both units off, then on again to re-establish the connection between them.
CANNOT LINK 2 The amplifier can’t identify the selected i.LINK-equipped component. For example, the amplifier may not
be able to identify an i.LINK-equipped personal computer.
LINK CHECK The amplifier is checking the i.LINK network. It does this when components are added to, or removed
from the network. The sound may be interrupted if this happens during playback.
LOOP CONNECT The i.LINK network cannot function because the connected components form a loop. See Creating an
i.LINK network on page 79 for more on this.
NO NAME When an i.LINK-equipped component has no name, this message is displayed instead of the proper
component name.
