II Peripheral Equipment

(4) USB hub

You'll need a USB hub to use a mouse, keyboard, and printer at the same time. Use a USB hub recommended by Nikon. (Not every USB hub is compatible with the DS-L1.)

Only one hub can be connected to the DS-L1. If your keyboard is equipped with a USB hub, use this hub.

(5) USB printer

Use the specified Mitsubishi CP900D or a printer which supports PictBridge Standard. You must purchase a license to use the printer. Contact your nearest Nikon representative for more information.

Restrictions will be displayed on the print screen if you attempt to use the printer without obtaining a license. Refer to “1.4.5 Settings for Direct Print” in Chapter VI for details on how to obtain a license.

(6) CF card

A CF card is needed to record or reproduce photographed data to or from a CF card.

We recommend a Type I- or Type II-compliant CF card or CF+ Type II microdrive (1 to 4 GB).

(7) C mount lens

A C mount lens is required to photograph subjects other than photomicrographs. Any lens that satisfies the following conditions may be used:

•Protrudes no more than 10 mm from the mount surface into the camera.

•The image circle is 2/3" for the DS-5M and DS-5Mc and 1/1.8" for the DS-2Mv, DS-2MBW, and DS-2MBWc. Use a lens for 2/3" or larger (e.g., 1”).

•When using diaphragm settings brighter than F2.8, you may observe slight light falloff around the periphery.

(8)Network connection cable

You'll need a network connection cable to save image data on another server or to control the DS-L1 from another computer over a network. Use a cable for 100Base-TX (Category 5 or 6). To satisfy EMC standards, use a shielded cable.

When connecting the DS-L1 to a LAN, use a straight cable. When connecting the DS-L1 directly to a PC, use a crossed cable.

(9) USB cable

You'll need a USB cable to save image data to a PC or to print directly to a printer via USB. We recommend using a USB 2.0-compliant AB-type cable for connections to a PC and an AB-type cable for connection to a printer.
