Connecting the camera to a computer
Confirm the battery has sufficient power before connecting the camera to a computer; the full-bat-
tery indicator should be displayed on the monitor. The use of the AC adapter (sold separately) is
recommended over the use of the battery. For users with Windows 98 or 98 Second Edition, read
the section on page 99 on how to install the necessary USB driver before connecting the camera to
a computer.
1. Start up the computer. The computer must be on before connect-
ing the camera.
2. Insert the memory card into the camera. To change the memory
card while the camera is connected to a computer, see page 106.
3. Attach the smaller plug of the USB cable to the camera. The
arrow on the plug should face the back of the camera. Make sure
the plug is firmly attached.
4. Attach the other end of the USB cable to the computer’s USB
port. Make sure the plug is firmly attached. The camera should be
connected directly to the computer’s USB port. Attaching the
camera to a USB hub may prevent proper operation.
5. Press the main switch to turn on the camera. The USB connection
is made automatically; a screen appears to indicate the operation.
The monitor turns off when the connection has been made. If the
USB connection is not made, disconnect the camera and restart
the computer. Repeat the connection procedure above.
