Verify that you have an internal or external IrDA transceiver connected to
your computer. Check your computer hardware manual for information on
the IrDA transceiver location.

If you are using the infrared transceiver to connect to the computer and
the camera automatically turns off because of inactivity, you need to
press Power to turn the camera back on.
For more information, go to www/irda.org and select “Using IrDA.”
Making the connection
Using a serial cable to connect
The camera can connect to a computer using the serial cable included in your
camera package.
To connect to your computer with a serial cable:
1
Plug one end of the serial cable into a
Communication port on the back of your
computer.
☞
If your computer has a 25-pin port, you
need to use a 9-pin adapter and attach it to
the port before attaching the serial cable to
the computer. Do not use a Null-Modem
adapter.
2
Open the serial/USB port on the side of your
camera.
3
Plug the other end of the serial cable into the
serial port.
4
Set the Mode dial to Connect.
5
Turn on the camera.
If you get a message on your computer stating
that you are not connected, refer to the
Serial.PDF, or for MACINTOSH Computers,
Connect.PDF, document or the online help for
troubleshooting information.
