CONNECTING TO EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT
E-129
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to turn off the camera, computer, and all pe-
ripherals connected to the computer (monitor, hard
disk, etc.) before connecting the camera to the com-
puter.
• After connecting the camera to the computer, align the
POWER/Function Switch with PLAY. Data communi-
cation with a computer is disabled while the camera is
in the REC mode.
• Never connect or disconnect the cable while a data
communication operation is in progress. Doing so can
cause problems with program execution, can corrupt
data, and can damage the camera and your computer.
• Data transfer while camera batteries are low can re-
sult in unexpected shutdown of the camera. Because
of this, use of the optional AC adaptor is recom-
mended whenever performing data communication
with the camera.
• This camera does not support data communication
with any of the optionally available CASIO PC link
software applications: LK-1, LK-1A, LK-10V, LK-11W,
LK-2, LK-2A, LK-2V, LK-21.
Using a Memory Card to Transfer Image Data
In addition to the cable connections described in the previ-
ous sections, you can also exchange data between your
camera and computer by reading it directly from the memory
card. The Photo Loader software that comes on the bundled
CD-ROM automatically reads the images from the memory
card and stores them in folders on your computer’s hard
disk.
The following provides general information about how to di-
rectly read images from a memory card. Certain details may
be different depending on the type of computer you are us-
ing.
■ Computer Equipped with a CompactFlash Card Slot
Simply insert the memory card into your computer’s
CompactFlash card slot.
