3.2.2
Operating the camera with a laptop
Generally speaking, it is possible to operate the camera with a laptop. Owing to the
variety of such products on the market, it isn't possible to make any generally valid
statements about the technical prerequisites for this setup. It is possible that that the
power supply provided by the integrated USB interface won't be sufficient to operate
the camera. Recommendation: Connect the camera to the laptop via an external
USB bus with its own power supply.
Should you encounter any problems, contact Olympus Soft Imaging Solutions
Customer Service (see chapter 6.4.2 on page 34).
