Transferring Pictures with the Serial Cable
and HotShots
Follow the steps in these sections to transfer your
pictures directly from the camera using the serial cable
and HotShots.
Connecting the Camera to a Windows PC
Make sure you have the serial cable that came with
your camera. Before you start, turn off the camera,
LCD monitor, and your computer.
1. Locate a serial port on the back of your computer.
You may have two serial ports labeled COM1 and
COM2, or they may be labeled with icons. For best
results, use COM1 (port 1) to connect your
camera.
Note:
If you have a 25-pin serial port, you can use a 9- to 25-
pin adapter, available at most computer stores.
2. Line up the serial connector on the cable with one
of the serial ports on your computer, and insert
the connector. Then tighten the screws.
3. Open the card and port cover on the side of the
camera. Then insert the other end of the cable into
the camera’s serial port.
4. Turn on your computer system.
