Connecting to a USB Port
Requirements for the USB Interface
• The USB interface can only be used to connect the camera to computers with
Windows 98 or Windows 2000 preinstalled (clean installation). The USB ports on
computers running versions of Windows 98 or Windows 2000 upgraded from
Windows 3.1 or Windows 95, or versions of Windows 2000 upgraded from
Windows 98 may not operate correctly.
• Connect the USB cable directly to one of the computer’s main USB ports. The
interface may not function correctly if the camera is connected via a USB hub.
• The interface may not function correctly while other USB devices, excluding USB
mice and keyboards, are connected. If this problem arises, detach the camera
and the other devices, and reconnect the camera only.
• Do not attach more than one camera to the USB ports of the same computer at
the same time. The cameras may not operate correctly.
Important
• Please do not place your computer into standby mode while the camera is
connected to its USB port. If you place the computer into standby mode while
the camera is connected to a USB port, do NOT disconnect the USB cable from
the camera or computer. Try to revive the computer. If the USB cable is detached
in standby mode, some computers may not return to active mode correctly. For
instructions regarding the standby mode, please consult the manual
accompanying your computer and operating software.
