USING YOUR CAMERA AS A PC CAMERA

With your camera in PC mode, you can use it with the supplied Visioneer Digital Camera Utility software to create videos and snapshots directly on your computer. You can also use other commercially available video capture software and real-time video conferencing software such as Microsoft NetMeetingTM.

Note: Before copying photos to your computer, you must install the software from the CD and set your camera up as new hardware on your computer. See page 37 and page 39 for details.

To connect your camera:

1.Connect the small connector of the USB cable to the USB port on the camera. See “Back View” on page 6 for the position of the USB port on the camera.

2.Connect the large end of the USB cable to an empty USB slot on your computer. To locate a USB slot, look for the USB icon next to the connection slot.

3.Turn on the camera with the Mode dial set to PC.
