Zoom Digital Camcorder - Manual

Installation Guide for
Zoom/Video Cam
Installing your new Zoom/Video Cam is
easy:
1
Getting Started
Prepare your computer. You have the option of
using the Zoom/Video Capture Card or enabling
an existing Zoom/Video Ready Faxmodem for video
capture.
2
Installing the Internal Card
If you do not have a Zoom/Video Ready Faxmo-
dem, install the video capture card. This involves
shutting off your computer and plugging the mo-
dem card into a slot on the main board of the com-
puter. It’s easy to do even if you’ve never had the
case off your computer.
2A
Updating Your Faxmodem
If you already have a Zoom/Video Ready Fax-
modem, or if you have just installed one, you can
run a program that will upgrade the modem card
and enable video capture.
3
Completing the Installation
Plug in the Video Camera and install some soft-
ware drivers so Windows knows what to do with
the camera. The Windows Hardware Wizard guides
you through most of the procedure. You can also
plug in the lapel microphone that comes with your
camera.
4
Installing Video Software
Install VideoLink and VideoLink Mail, video pro-
grams that enable you to record video mail, do vid-
eoconferencing, and make video telephone calls.
Also install other software that comes on your
Zoom Link CD.
