Step 1: Insert USB 3.0 PCI express card
The camera is connected to the computer via a USB 3.0 PCI express card. Even if
your computer already has a USB 3.0 PCI express card, we strongly recommend
inserting the supplied PCI express card. When you do so, it ensures the camera's
full functionality and avoids any traffic bottlenecks.
When inserting the PCI express card, please follow the instructions given by the
manufacturer. Also pay attention to the safety instructions given below:
After you have inserted the card, make sure to note the following point.
Install the software first!
Install the software you use to operate the camera with before connecting the
camera to your computer.
Danger of electric shock from a plugged-in computer!
When installing hardware on a computer, there is a risk of electric shock.
Be sure to disconnect the power supply before you open the computer!
Injuries caused by sharp metal edges!
The metal edges of the computer and the FireWire board are sharp. You can injure
yourself on them.
Therefore, take care when you open the computer and install the FireWire board.
It's a good idea to wear thin gloves when you do so.
