IEC 61883-6:20 14(E)描述了用于采用IEEE 1394传输音频和音乐数据的协议，并规定了应用该协议的基本要求。该协议可以应用于具有任何类型的音频和/或音乐数据处理、生成和转换功能块的所有模块或设备。该标准仅涉及音频和音乐数据的传输。这些模块或设备的控制、状态和机器可读描述应根据每个应用领域在本标准之外定义。第三版取消并取代了2005年出版的第二版，构成了技术修订。此版本包括以下更改: -增加了用于蓝光光盘应用的AM824序列适配层。 ——阻断传播方式趋于规范。 -为了向后兼容性，已经包括了先前定义的协议。

IEC 61883-6:2014(E) describes a protocol for the transmission of audio and music data employing IEEE 1394 and specifies essential requirements for the application of the protocol. This protocol can be applied to all modules or devices that have any kind of audio and/or music data processing, generation and conversion function blocks. This standard deals only with the transmission of audio and music data. The control, status and machine-readable description of these modules or devices should be defined outside of this standard according to each application area. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2005, and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following changes:
- AM824 sequence adaptation layer for Blu-ray Disc application is added.
- Blocking transmission method becomes normative.
- Previously defined protocols have been included for the sake of backwards compatibility.
