CHAPTER 2
INSTALLATION
Step 1. Install the 1394 PCI card (Windows Users Only)
This step is for Windows PC users only. If you are installing the Retiga 4000R on a Mac OS computer,
please skip to Step 2.
Check your computer for an existing Firewire port:
The Retiga 4000R connects to your Windows PC via a Firewire port. If you already have a Firewire
port, you do not have to install the IEEE 1394 PCI card. Check the connectors at the back of your PC
for a port that matches the Firewire ports on your camera (Figure 1 and Figure 2).
