Connecting to your PC

Precautions When Connecting to a PC

When connecting the camcorder to a PC, use the AC adapter/ charger as a power source.

zIf the camcorder power is cut during data transfer, your valuable recorded data may be lost. If this occurs while writing to disc, the disc will no longer be usable.

While accessing the camcorder from a PC, do not plug or unplug the cables.

zIf you plug or unplug the PC connection cable (supplied) or the power source (power cable and DC power cord) while the ACCESS/PC indicator is flashing, your valuable recorded data may be lost. If this occurs while writing to disc, the disc will no longer be usable.

Make sure the camcorder does not overheat. (Operations conducted with the camcorder and PC connected should be limited to a rough standard of approx. 30 minutes within environmental conditions at approx. 86°F (30°C).)

zIf the camcorder overheats, camcorder operations may not function properly. In particular, if an error occurs while writing to BD-R or DVD-R, the disc will no longer be usable. Make sure to prevent the camcorder from overheating. As extended time will be required to import lengthy scenes recorded to the HDD to your PC, make sure that the camcorder does not overheat.

When connecting the camcorder to your PC, detach all cables or camera accessories (external microphone, etc.) other than the PC connection cable and AC adapter/charger.

Camcorder connection to your PC is not possible when the camcorder power is “OFF”.

The supplied software does not import camcorder’s editing features such as the fade settings but only the original data.

Although reading data from the camcorder or writing data to the camcorder may be possible using software other than the supplied software, operation is not guaranteed.

Although we have confirmed that discs created using the supplied software can be played back on devices compliant with those respective disc types, playback on all devices is not guaranteed. There are instances when playback is not possible depending on the playback device or disc recording condition.
