CONNECTING THE REMOTE CAMERA

Before the camera can be connected to a computer, the remote camera driver must be installed, see
page 98. A fully charged battery should be used when the camera is connected to a computer. The
use of the AC adapter (sold separately) is recommended over the use of the battery. For users with
Windows 98SE, the USB driver must be installed before connecting the camera to a computer (p.
86).

4. Attach the other end of the USB cable to the computer’s USB port. Make sure

the plug is firmly attached. The camera should be connected directly to the com-
puter’s USB port. Attaching the camera to a USB hub may prevent the camera
from operating properly.

3. Slide the AV-out terminal / USB-port cover open. Insert the

small plug of the USB cable into the camera. Make sure
the plug is firmly attached.

2. Start up the computer. The computer must be turned on before con-

necting the camera.

1. Select RemoteCamera from the transfer mode option in the custom 2

section of the setup menu.
