Connecting the Camera to Your Computer
●
Use only the dedicated USB cable to connect the camera to your computer.
●
Push the plug firmly all the way into the socket. Loose connections can cause faults
or malfunctions.
●
Connect the camera to the computer directly using the dedicated USB cable. The
camera and computer may not operate correctly if you connect them via a hub or if
you connect to multiple USB devices.
●
The connection may not operate correctly if you are using other USB devices,
excluding USB mouse or keyboards, at the same time. If this occurs, disconnect the
other USB devices from the computer and try reconnecting the camera.
●
Do not connect more than one camera to the same computer. The connections may
not operate correctly.
●
While the camera and your computer are communicating, the camera’s LCD panel
may blink and, if you are using the LCD monitor, the image on the monitor may
flicker. This is not a malfunction.
●
When unplugging the dedicated USB cable, be sure to grip the sides of the plug as
you pull it out.
●
If you do not perform any operation while the camera and computer are connected,
a confirmation message appears on the computer screen asking whether you wish
to continue communicating with the camera for some computer systems. If you do
not perform any operation even after this message appears, the communication
with the camera is terminated. To re-establish the communication, press the shutter
button down halfway or set the camera’s power switch to <OFF> and then back to
<ON>.
●
Do not put your computer to sleep while it is connected to the camera.
If you do put your computer to sleep while it is connected to the camera, never
disconnect the dedicated USB cable while your computer is still in sleep mode.
Always wake your computer up before disconnecting the camera. On some types of
computer, disconnecting the dedicated USB cable while your computer is in sleep
mode could prevent the computer from waking up correctly. Refer to the computer
User’s Manual for more information on Sleep mode.
When the camera is connected to a computer, you should use the DC Coupler Kit
(optional) so that you can continue using the camera regardless of battery level.
