Type
Options available in the Type option vary depending on the
camera connected. If you’ve selected Nikon CoolPix, you
can choose from Serial or USB (though USB is a select-
able option, it is only functional when the COOLPIX 990 is
connected to your computer’s USB port). If you've selected
Nikon D1, the Remote Connection Type indicator will read
1394 (IEEE 1394 interface).
Port
If Serial (SC-EW3 cable sold separately) is selected as the
port type, clicking the arrow button to the right of this text
box displays a list of supported ports. Select the port to
which the camera is connected from among AUTO, COM1,
COM2, COM3, and COM4. If you choose AUTO, the
computer automatically detects the port to which the cam-
era is connected. This text box is disabled while USB is
selected as the port type.
If you consistently connect your camera to just one serial port, select the
appropriate port number, rather than AUTO, to speed processing.
Speed
If Serial is selected as the port type, clicking the arrow
button to the right of this field displays a list of supported
speeds (data-transfer rates). This text box is disabled while
USB is selected as the port type.
OK
Accepts any changes to port settings and closes the Digital
Camera Settings dialog box.
Cancel
Closes the Digital Camera Settings dialog box without chang-
ing port settings.
