Multi PJ Digital Camera Update Software
In order to use the PJ Digital Camera (YC-400) with a CASIO projector (XJ-A146, XJ-A246, XJ-A256),
you need to first check the camera’s firmware and update it if necessary. Check to make sure that
your PJ Digital Camera is running firmware Version 1.10 or higher.
To check your firmware version
1. Check to make sure there is no memory card loaded in the PJ Digital Camera. If there is a memory
card loaded, remove it.
2. On the camera, hold down the [MENU] button as you press the [ON/OFF] (Power) button to turn
on power. Keep [MENU] depressed until the version of the camera’s firmware appears on the
monitor screen.
3. After a short while, the version number will disappear from the display.
Important!
z If update software installation is interrupted due to low battery power, the camera will no longer be
able to operate. Be sure to load a fresh set of new batteries into the camera before starting the
update software installation procedure. Note that you perform update software installation at your
own risk.
z If you are unable to restart the camera after installing the update software, contact the Authorized
Service Center of your local CASIO distributor or a CASIO service center. Tell them you need
assistance because your camera will not restart after installing YC-400 update software.
z Before installing the update software, be sure you back up the data in camera memory to a memory
card or your computer’s hard disk.
z Installing the update software can cause changes in the camera’s image memory size, camera
startup time, recording time, recording interval, user settings, etc.
z Note that installation of the update software cannot be undone. Once you install the update
software, there is no way to restore the camera to its original firmware version.
z The product warranty on your camera remains in effect in accordance with the warranty card you
received when you purchased the camera, regardless of whether or not you install the update
software.
Requirements for Installing the Update Software on Your Camera
z The installation procedure temporarily writes the update software to a memory card. The following
items are required for installation: SD/MMC memory card with at least 5MB of free space, and the
USB cable and USB cradle that come with the camera.
z If you do not have an SD/MMC memory card or if you do not have the update software on hand for
some reason, contact your nearest CASIO service center and request installation from them. Note
that if you do request installation, you will need to leave your camera at the CASIO service center for
a few days.
