7.1.6 

Using as a PC Camera

To use the camera as a PC Camera, you switch the Mode dial of your camera to PC

Camera mode

 

 and then connect it to the computer via the USB port.

When connected, the camera may be used in conjunction with any commercially
available video capture software to create your own home videos. Then you can edit
and distribute your video files across the Internet or save them on CD-ROM for later
viewing on your PC or with a VCD/DVD player.

7.2 

Connecting to a Mac

Note

:

There is limited support for MAC OS built-in at this date. You will be
able to get pictures and video clips from the camera, but the webcam
function is not supported in MAC-OS. Visit www.trust.com/13674 to
see if there is any updated driver available.

7.2.1 General 

info

1. 

Check if your MAC complies with the following system requirements: MAC
OS 9.0 or later, one free USB port.

2. 

You might need additional software to edit your pictures as the software
included with the camera is designed for a PC with Windows.

3. 

The recorded video clips are in a format designed for a PC and might not
play correctly on Mac’s without additional software for playing media files.

7.2.2 

Getting your pictures

1. 

Make sure your computer is turned on.

2. 

Turn the MODE switch to the PLAYBACK position.

3. 

Connect the camera to your MAC. An extra folder will be added to your
desktop. Your pictures are stored in this folder.

4. 

Open this folder to access your pictures and video clips.

5. 

In MAC OS X, the image capture will be activated automatically to easily
import your pictures into the ‘Pictures’ folder on your system.

Tip

:

Mac OS will automatically display the camera’s internal memory when
there is no SD / MMC card present. When there is a memory card
present in your camera, its contents will be displayed instead until you
remove it.

7.2.3 Formatting

You could both format the camera’s internal memory and the external memory card
with your MAC. Use only the DOS-format. However, it’s recommended using the
camera’s format function to format the memory.

Do not format the camera’s memory when you using Mac OS 10.2 (Jaguar) or
higher, because this OS can only format HFS and UNIX formats, which are not
compatible with your camera.
