Connecting the Camera to a PC

This section explains how to connect the camera to a PC.

Connecting the Camera Directly to a PC

This method is for connecting the camera directly to a PC.

Important

Note

•The flash lamp (red) on the camera blinks while data is being

transmitted. Do not disconnect the cable or turn the camera off while

data is being transmitted between the camera and the PC as the

camera or PC may be adversely affected.

•After connecting the camera to a PC, you are advised to use an AC

adapter when using the camera and avoid powering the camera by the

battery. Particularly if you are handling no-compression files, motion

pictures or other large files, transmission takes a long time. If the

power fails during transmission, the camera or PC may be adversely

affected.

•Connecting the camera via the USB hub may result in the camera not

functioning properly. If possible, you are advised not to use the USB

hub.

•The camera will not operate on power supplied from the USB port.

■Connecting the Camera by USB Cable (For Windows)

You can connect the camera to a PC running Windows using the USB cable

supplied with the camera.

AOpen the terminal cover on the right

side of the camera.

BInsert the flat connector on one end

of the USB cable into the USB/AUX

terminal of the camera with the seal

facing up.
