Hardware and software required for videoconferencing

A FUJIFILM camera equipped with the “PC Camera” function
A PC with an Internet connection

✩ 56kbps modem connection or better or an ISDN connection

✩ An established service contract with an Internet service provider (ISP)

Depending on your type of Internet connection and/or your modem connection
speed, video quality may deteriorate and some frames may be lost.

✩ A sound card installed and speakers and a microphone connected to your PC

PCs that do not have a sound card installed and speakers and a microphone
connected can only be used to transmit images.

For the best results, use headphones with an attached microphone.

✩ If your Internet connection is via a router or via a LAN (connecting machines on

the LAN to the Internet), you cannot use videoconferencing.

✩ If you are using Windows XP and you tick the “Protect my computer and network

by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the Internet” checkbox in
the Internet connection firewall settings, videoconferencing cannot be used. See
“Troubleshooting” (/ P.100) for information on setting up firewalls.

✩ If your PC and the other party’s PC are connected to the same LAN and you are

connected to the Internet via a router, PictureHello can be used between the 2
PCs. However, if there is a firewall between the LAN and external lines, the
status of parties in the Address Book may be “Unknown” depending on the
firewall settings, making calls to those parties impossible.

FinePixViewer and NetMeeting 3.01 installed
A completed FinePix Internet Service user registration

When the [

] (Register Now) button is displayed on the right side of the

FinePixViewer window, you must complete the user registration procedure
(/ P.66).

Take care when using your own e-mail address. Disclosing your e-mail address to
people other than those you wish to call could result in unintentional and
unnecessary videoconferencing calls from third parties.
