Transmission errors may occur if there is any dust
or other matter adhering to the face of the optical
cable connector.
Always put on the connector cap when not using
the CAMERA connector.
If the CAMERA connector is dirty, there is
increased risk of transmission error between the
unit and the F65. If the F65 DOCK indicator turns
on yellow or red, clean the connector using the
following procedure.
For details about the DOCK indicator, refer to the
Operation Manual for the F65.
The following items are required to clean the
CAMERA connector.
• Shutter opening jig
JT-FODSP-4 for the D-Sub connector plug
(scheduled for release)
• Cotton swabs
Recommended: HUBY-340, BB-012
(scheduled for release) or
commercially available cotton
swabs for cleaning optical
fibers.
• 99.5% (or higher) pure alcohol

Attach the shutter opening jig to the
CAMERA connector.
Align the shutter opening jig with the shape
and orientation of the D-Sub connector of the
CAMERA connector, and set in position.

Notes
• The jig cannot be attached if the shape and
orientation is backwards.
• The socket-side shutter opening jig (JT-FODSS-
4) cannot be used.
• If the jig is forced into position, there is a risk of
damaging the CAMERA connector and the
shutter opening jig.
• The spring within the shutter may push the jig out
a little; this is normal.
