Connecting to a Computer Using a DV (IEEE1394) Cable
You can transfer recordings to a computer equipped with a DV (IEEE1394) terminal or
IEEE1394 capture board. Optional software is required for transferring recordings
from the tape to a computer. Refer to the instruction manual of the software.
❍ Operation may not work correctly depending on the software and the
specifications/settings of your computer.
❍ If the computer freezes while you have connected the camcorder, disconnect
and reconnect the DV cable. If the problem persists, disconnect the interface
cable, turn off camcorder and computer, turn camcorder and computer back
on and reconnect them.
❍ Do not disconnect the DV cable, open the memory card cover,
remove the memory card, change the position of the POWER switch or turn off
the camcorder and computer while data is being transferred to the computer
(while the camcorder’s card access indicator is flashing). Doing so may damage
the memory card’s data.
❍ The image files on your memory card and the image files saved
on the hard disk drive of your computer are valuable, original data files. If you
wish to use image files on your computer, make copies of them first, and use
the copied file, retaining the original.
❍ We recommend powering the camcorder from a household power source
while it is connected to the computer.
❍ Refer also to the instruction manual of the computer.
❍ Users of Windows XP can use the DV Network Software
contained on the DIGITAL VIDEO SOLUTION DISK For Windows. For details,
refer to the DV Network Software Instruction Manual.
