About wireless LAN security

Since communication via the wireless LAN

function is established by radio waves, the

wireless signal may be susceptible to

interception. To protect wireless

communication, this system supports various

security functions. Be sure to correctly

configure the security settings in accordance

with your network environment.

No Security

Although you can easily make settings, anyone

can intercept wireless communication or intrude

into your wireless network, even without any

sophisticated tools. Keep in mind that there is a

risk of unauthorized access or interception of

data.

WEP

WEP applies security to communications to

prevent outsiders fiom intercepting

communications or intruding into your wireless

network. WEP is a legacy security technology

that enables older devices, which do not support

TKIP/AES, to be connected.

WPA-PSK (TK|P), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)

TKIP is a security technology developed to

correct for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP

assures a higher security level than WEP.

WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)

AES is a security technology that uses an

advanced security method that is distinct fiom

WEP and TKIP.

AES assures a higher security level than WEP or

TKIP.

Precautions

On safety

•To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects

filled with liquids, such as vases, on the system, or

place the system near water, such as near a bathtub or

shower room. Should any solid object or liquid fall

into the cabinet, unplug the system and have it

checked by qualified personnel belk)m operating it

any further.

• Do not touch the AC power cord (mains lead) with

wet hands. Doing so may cause an electric shock.

On power sources

•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do

not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To

disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by

the cord.

On placement

• Phtce the system in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.

• At high volmne, over long periods of time, the can net

becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfuuction.

However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do

not place the system in a confined space where

ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.

• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything

on the system. The system is equipped with a high

power amplil'ier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,

the system can overheat and malfunction.

• Do not place the system on surfaces (rugs, blankets,

etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may

block the ventilation slots.

• Do not install the system in a confined space, such as

a bookshelf or similar unit.

• Do not install the system near heat sources such as

radiators, air ducts, or in a place subject to direct

sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or

shock.

• Do not install the system in an inclined posifion. It is

designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

• Keep the system and discs away from components

with strong nlaguets, such as nlicrowave ()veils, or

Glossary

AVCHD

The AVCHD t_rmat is a high-definition digital

video camera foni-lat used to record SD

(standard definition) or HD (high definition)

signals of either the 1080i specification* or the

720p specification** on DVDs, using efficient

data compression coding technology. The

MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 t_rmat is adopted to

compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or

Linear PCM system is used to compress audio

data. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is

capable of compressing images at higher

efficiency than that of the conventional image

compression format. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264

format enables a high definition (HD) video

signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to

be recorded on DVD discs in the same way as it

would be for a standard definition (SD)

television signal.

* A high definition specification that utilizes 1080

effective scanning lines and the interlace format.

** A high definition specification that utilizes 720

effective scanning lines and the progressive format.

BD.J application

The BD-ROM format supports Java for

interactive functions.

"BD-J" offers content providers ahnost

BD-ROM

BD-ROMs (Blu-my Disc Read-Only Memory)

are commercially produced discs and are

available in the same capacities as the BD

below. Other than conventional movie and video

contents, these discs have enhanced features

such as interactive content, menu operations

using pop-up menus, selection of subtitle

display, and slideshow. Although a BD-ROM

may contain any form of data, most BD-ROM

discs will contain movies in High Definition

format, for playback on Blu-ray Disc/DVD

players.

Blu.ray Disc (BD)

A disc format developed for recording/playing

high-definition (HD) video (for HDTV, etc.),

and for storing large amounts of data. A single

layer Blu-my Disc holds up to 25 GB, and a

dual-layer Blu-my Disc holds up to 50 GB of

data.

Digital Cinema Auto Calibration

(D.C.A.C)

Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed

by Sony to automatically measure and adjust the

speaker settings to your listening environment in

a short period of time.

Dolby Digital

This movie theater sound format is more

advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In

this format, the surround speakers output stereo

sound with an expanded fiequency range, and a

subwoofer channel for deep bass is

independently provided. This t_rmat is also

called "5.1" with the subwoofer channel

designed its the 0.1 channel (since it functions

only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six

channels in this t_rmat are recorded separately

for superior channel separation. Furthermore,

since all the signals are processed digitally, less

signal degradation occurs.

Dolby Digital Plus

Developed as an extension to Dolby Digital, the

audio coding technology supports 7.1 multi-

channel surround sound.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth

output channels fiom 2 channel sources. This is

done using an advanced, high-purity matrix

surround decoder that extracts the spatial

properties of the original recording without

adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

•Movie mode

The Movie mode is for use with stereo television

shows and all programs encoded in Dolby

Surround. The result is enhanced sound field

directionality that approaches the quality of

discrete 5.1 -channel sound.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic

As one method of decoding Dolby Surround,

Dolby Surround Pro Logic produces four

channels fiom 2 channel sound. Compared with

the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby

Surround Pro Logic reproduces left-to-right

panning more naturally and localizes sounds

more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby

Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of

surround speakers and a center speaker. The

surround speakers output monaural sound.

Dolby TrueHD

Dolby TrueHD is a lossless coding technology

that supports up to 8 channels of multi-channel

surround sound for the next generation of optical

discs. The reproduced sound is true to the

original source bit-for-bit.

DTS

Digital audio compression technology

developed by DTS, Inc. This technology

conforms to 5.l-channel surround. This format

includes a stereo rear channel and a discrete

subwoofer channel. DTS provides the same 5.1

discrete channels of high quality digital audio.

The good channel separation is realized due to

the all channel data being recorded discretely

and processed in digitally.

DTS.HD High Resolution Audio

Developed as an extension to DTS Digital

Surround format. It supports a maximum

sampling fiequency of 96 kHz, and 7.1 multi-

channel surround.

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio has a

maximum transmission rote of 6 Mbps, with

lossy compression.

DTS.HD Master Audio

DTS-HD Master Audio has a maximum

transmission rote of 24.5 Mbps, and uses

lossless compression, and DTS-HD Master

Audio corresponds to a maximum sampling

fiequency of 192 kHz, and maximum of 7. l ch.

HDMI (High.Definition Multimedia

Interface)

HDMI is an interface that supports both vide()

and audio on a single digital connection,

allowing you to enjoy high quality digital

picture and sound. The HDMI specification

supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital

Content Protection), a copy protection

technology that incorporates coding technology

for digital video signals.

Interlace format

(Interlaced scanning)

The Interlace format is the NTSC standard

method for displaying TV images at 30 frames

per second. Each fiame is scanned twice -

alternately between the even numbered scanning

lines and then odd numbered scanning lines, at

60 times per second.

LTH (Low to High)

LTH is a recording system that supports organic

pigment type BD-R.

Parental Control

A function of the BD/DVD to limit playback of

the disc by the age of the users according to the

limitation level in each country. The limitation

varies fiom disc to disc; when it is activated,

playback is completely prohibited, violent

scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes

and so on.

PhotoTV HD

"PhotoTV HD" allows fBr highly-detailed

pictures, and photo-like expression of subtle

textures and colors. By connecting Sony

"PhotoTV HD" compatible devices using an

HDMI cable, a whole new world of photos can

be enjoyed in breathtaking Full HD quality. For

instance, the delicate texture of the human skin,

flowers, sand and waves can now be displayed

on a large screen in beautiful photo-like quality.

Pop.up menu

An enhanced menu operation available on BD-

ROMs. The pop-up menu appears when POP

UP/MENU is pressed during playback, and can

be operated while playback is in progress.

Progressive format

(sequential scanning)

In contrast to the Interlace fonnat, the

progressive format can reproduce 50 - 60 fi'ames

per second by reproducing all scanning lines

(525 lines tbr the NTSC system). The overall

picture quality increases and still images, text

and horizontal lines appear sharper. This tbrmat

is compatible with the 525 or 625 progressive

format.

S-AIR

(Sony Audio Interactive Radio

frequency)

Recent times have seen the rapid spread of BD/

DVD media, digital broadcasting, and other

high-quality media.

To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-

quality media are transmitted with no

deterioration, Sony has developed a technology

called "S-AIR" for the radio transmission of

digital audio signals with no compression, and

has incorporated this technology into the EZW-

RT 10/EZW-RT 10A/EZW-T 100.

This technology transfers digital audio signals

with no compression using the 2.4 GHz band

range of ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and

Medical band), such as wireless LANs and

Bluetooth applications.

24p True Cinema

Movies shot with a fihn camera consist of 24

fiames per second.

Since conventional televisions (both CRT and

flat panels) display fiames either at 1/60 or 1/50

second intervals, the 24 fiames do not appear at

an even pace.

When connected to a TV with 24p capabilities,

the player displays each fiame at 1/24 second

intervals -- the same interval originally shot

with the fihn camera, thus faithfully reproducing

the original cinema image.
