7. Image transmission functions

This unit comes with a function for transmitting still images from the host computer to the unit via LAN and a function for importing still images from the unit into the host computer. The image transmission software must be installed in the host computer from the CD-ROM supplied in order to use these functions. For details on installation, refer to “How to install the software”.

Specifications

Run the image transmission software (HS400 Tool) in a host computer which satisfies the following conditions.

• Operating system:	Windows 2000 or Windows XP
• Processor:	Pentium III, 1 GHz or better recommended
• RAM:	6 MB or more recommended
• Hard disk drive:	At least 50 MB of free memory
• LAN:	10BASE-T
• Display:	TrueColor (24 bit, 32 bit colour), 800  600 dots or more

The image formats supported include bitmap (bmp), JPEG (jpg), TIFF (tif), GIF (gif) and PNG (png).

The image transmission software is equipped with a function for automatically converting images into the specified video format size.

Connections

Connect this unit to LAN using a twisted pair cable. Use a LAN crossover cable to connect the unit with the host computer directly. Use a LAN straight cable to connect to LAN using a hub or other equipment.

For details on network setup such as IP addresses, refer to “5-5. Network settings”.

Transmitting images uses network capacity which may result in other connected devices possibly being affected when connecting to LAN through a hub and other equipment.
