INFRARED DATA TRANSFER
Infrared Data Transfer Precautions
•Make sure that the infrared ports of the sending unit and the receiving unit are pointed straight at each other, and that there is nothing blocking the path between them.
•To avoid problems that occur due to sudden loss of battery power during infrared image transfer, we recommend that you use the separately AC adaptor specified for this cam- era when transferring images.
•Avoid performing infrared data transfers in areas expose to direct sunlight or other strong illumination.
•Such conditions as natural outdoor light, low battery power, too much distance between infrared ports, and misalign- ment of infrared ports can cause failure of image transfers or corrupted data.
•Proper image data transfer is impossible whenever there is anything blocking either of the infrared ports.
•Do not locate any other infrared emitting device (such as remote control units) or fluorescent lighting in the vicinity of the cameras while they are performing infrared image transfers.
•Failure to be able to establish an IrDA connection can mean that the device you are trying to communication with does not support the IrDA standard, or that the applications being used are not compatible. When this happens, you probably have to connect the camera to the computer with a separately available cable for data transfer.
