Connecting the USB cable
Connect the USB cable to copy still image and video clip files in a memory card to the PC or to use
ImageMixer in capturing video.
1
To assure safety, make sure all units are turned off before making any connections.
2
Use the USB cable to connect the camcorder to the PC.
NOTES:
●
It is recommended to use the AC Adapter as the power supply instead of the battery pack.
●
When the USB cable is connected, turning on or off the camcorder or switching the VIDEO/MEMORY
(DSC) mode on the camcorder causes malfunctions of the PC.
●
If you connect the camcorder to the PC through a USB hub, compatibility issues between the hub and the
PC may result in instability in the operation of the PC. If this happens, connect the camcorder directly to the
PC, not through the hub.
●
Do not use an extension USB cable.
