Note: When connecting the COOLPIX 900 to a computer, use only the cables provided with the camera.

Once you have connected your camera to the computer’s serial port, turn the camera’s selector dial to M-REC, A-REC, or PLAY. A data-transfer icon will appear in the control panel together with a battery indicator and the card icon. If no memory card is inserted in the camera, the card icon will flash.

All other indicators and the color LCD monitor will be off, and the camera will not respond when the zoom switch and control panel or monitor buttons are pushed. The only control operative when the serial cable is connected is the selector dial, which can only be used to turn the camera on (by turning the dial to M-REC, A-REC, or PLAY) or off. To restore normal operation, remove the serial cable.

Caution: Do not disconnect the serial cable while the data transfer icon is flashing.
