II Peripheral Equipment
- 4 -
(4) USB hub
You'll need a USB hub to use a mouse, keyboard, and printer at the same time. Use a USB hub
recommended by Nikon. (Not every USB hub is compatible with the DS-L1.)
Only one hub can be connected to the DS-L1. If your keyboard is equipped with a USB hub, use
this hub.
(5) USB printer
Use the specified Mitsubishi CP900D or a printer which supports PictBridge Standard. You must
purchase a license to use the printer. Contact your nearest Nikon representative for more
information.
Restrictions will be displayed on the print screen if you attempt to use the printer without
obtaining a license. Refer to “1.4.5 Settings for Direct Print” in Chapter VI for details on how to
obtain a license.
(6) CF card
A CF card is needed to record or reproduce photographed data to or from a CF card.
We recommend a Type I- or Type II-compliant CF card or CF+ Type II microdrive (1 to 4 GB).
(7) C mount lens
A C mount lens is required to photograph subjects other than photomicrographs. Any lens that
satisfies the following conditions may be used:
• Protrudes no more than 10 mm from the mount surface into the camera.
• The image circle is 2/3" for the DS-5M and DS-5Mc and 1/1.8" for the DS-2Mv, DS-2MBW,
and DS-2MBWc. Use a lens for 2/3" or larger (e.g., 1”).
• When using diaphragm settings brighter than F2.8, you may observe slight light falloff
around the periphery.
(8) Network connection cable
You'll need a network connection cable to save image data on another server or to control the
DS-L1 from another computer over a network. Use a cable for 100Base-TX (Category 5 or 6).
To satisfy EMC standards, use a shielded cable.
When connecting the DS-L1 to a LAN, use a straight cable. When connecting the DS-L1 directly
to a PC, use a crossed cable.
(9) USB cable
You'll need a USB cable to save image data to a PC or to print directly to a printer via USB. We
recommend using a USB 2.0-compliant AB-type cable for connections to a PC and an AB-type
cable for connection to a printer.
