Connecting the AC Adapter (Necessary only
when a laptop PC is connected)
· Always use the AC adapter provided by Olympus. Using other
AC adapter will result in malfunction or damage.
· The cords and cables are vulnerable to bend or twist. Do not
apply excessive force to them.
1. Insert the output connector @ of the AC adapter into the DC input con-
nector ² of the camera head.
Always use the power cord provided by Olympus. If no power
cord is provided with the camera head, please select the proper
power cord by referring to chapter “PROPER SELECTION OF
THE POWER SUPPLY CORD” at the end of this instruction
manual.
2. Insert the connector ³ of the power
cord into the input connec-
tor | of the AC adapter.
3. Insert the power cord plug into the power outlet. Connect the power cord
correctly and ensure that the grounding terminals of the power supply
and wall outlet are properly connected. If the equipment is not grounded/
earthed, Olympus can no longer warrant the electrical safety performance
of the equipment.
}The AC adapter generates heat after long hours of use, but this is not
malfunction.
}The AC adapter of the camera is required only when it is connected to a
laptop PC. It is not necessary when it is connected to a desktop PC.

Power supply to the camera
The camera head of the DP21 has the main switch on it. Set this switch to ON when using the camera. The pilot LED on the
camera head lights when power is supplied to the camera head.
When a desktop PC is connected
The camera is powered from the desktop PC so the AC adapter is not necessary. The camera is turned OFF automatically when
the PC is shut down.
When a laptop PC is connected
Since the laptop PC cannot supply power, the AC adapter is necessary. Since the power is supplied from the AC adapter, the
camera remains ON even when the PC is shut down. To turn the camera OFF, set its main switch to OFF.
}There is no problem in shutting down the laptop PC while leaving the camera power ON. The camera power is left ON until the
main switch is set to OFF or the AC adapter is unplugged.
