DATA-TRANSFER MODE

Read this section carefully before connecting the camera to a computer. Details on using and installing the DiMAGE Viewer software are found in the supplied software manual. The DiMAGE manuals do not cover the basic operation of computers or their operating systems; please refer to the manual supplied with your computer.

DiMAGE Xi system requirements

For the camera to be connected directly to the computer and used as a mass-storage device, the computer must be equipped with a USB port as a standard interface. The computer and the operating system must be guaranteed by their manufacturers to support USB interface. The following operating systems are compatible with the camera:

IBM PC / AT Compatible	Macintosh
Windows 98, 98SE, Me, 2000	Mac OS 8.6 ~ 9.2.2,
Professional, and XP.	Mac OS X 10.1 ~ 10.1.5

Check the Minolta web site for the latest compatibility information: North America: http://www.minoltausa.com

Europe: http://www.minoltaeurope.com/pe/digital/languages__stage.html

Users with Windows 98 or 98 second edition will need to install the driver software on the included DiMAGE software CD-ROM (p. 75). Users with Mac OS 8.6 will need to download and install a USB mass-storage device from the Apple web site (p. 78). No special driver software is required for other Windows or Macintosh operating systems.

Customers who have bought a DiMAGE 7, 5, S304, S404, 2330, or X digital camera and have installed the Windows 98 driver software must repeat the installation procedure. The updated version of the driver software included on the supplied DiMAGE software CD-ROM is required for the operation of the DiMAGE Xi with a computer. The new software will have no affect on the performance of the DiMAGE 7, 5, S304, S404, 2330, or X.

Connecting the camera to a computer

A fully charged battery should be used when the camera is connected to a computer. The use of the AC adapter (sold separately) is recommended over the use of the bat- tery.
