Controlling the Camera: PTP / IP Mode

In PTP / IP mode, a camera equipped with a WT-2 can be controlled over a wire-
less network from a computer running Nikon Capture 4 version 4.2 or later
(available separately) and photographs saved directly to the computer hard
disk. Before the camera can be controlled from the computer, wireless set-
tings must be adjusted appropriately and the camera and computer must be
“paired” using special software. The principal steps involved in using PTP / IP
mode for the fi rst time are as follows:

2—Setup Using the Connection Wizard ............

15–16

3—Pairing.........................................................

17–19

4—Connecting to the Computer ...........................

Steps 1–3 can be omitted once the WT-2 has been set up for connection to a
particular computer.

Installing Pairing Software
The Wireless Connecting Utility supplied with the WT-2 must be installed on
the host computer before it can be paired with the camera. See page 39 for
more information.

Wireless Network Settings

For information on adjusting wireless network settings without using the Connection
Wizard, see “Menu Guide” (

26–31). See page 25 for information on loading set-

tings fi les created with a computer.

Firewalls

PTP / IP mode uses UDP port 5353. It may be necessary to adjust fi rewall settings before
connecting to a computer behind a fi rewall.
