Data Transfer Cable

• Never disconnect the USB cable while a data communica-

tion operation is in progress. Doing so can corrupt memory
data.

• USB data communication is supported in both the REC

mode and PLAY mode.

• Be sure to disconnect the USB cable from the camera and

computer after you are finished exchanging data.

• You cannot turn off the camera while the USB cable is con-

nected. Disconnect the USB cable first when you want to
turn off the camera.

Using a Serial Port Connection

You can connect a computer to the camera’s DIGITAL termi-
nal for image data uploading and downloading. For such a
connection, you must install the Photo Loader software from
the bundled CD-ROM on your computer, and use a sepa-
rately available CASIO data transfer cable to make the con-
nection. The type of cable you should use depends on what
kind of computer you are connecting to.

• This manual covers actual physical connection proce-

dures. See the documentation on the Bundled Software
User’s Manual for full details about connections, installing
Photo Loader, and other information.
