Disconnecting the Camera
Before turning the camera off or disconnecting the
interface cable, be sure that image transfer is com-
plete and that the transfer progress dialog is no
longer displayed in the computer monitor. Do not
turn the camera off or disconnect the cable while
the progress indicator is displayed. If the interface cable is disconnected or the
memory card removed from the camera while data transfer is in progress, an
error message will be displayed in the computer monitor. Click OK to exit Nikon
View 4, then turn the camera off and reconnect the cable or replace the
memory card. When you turn the camera on, Nikon View 4 will automatically
detect the camera and restart.
Use a Reliable Power Source
When transferring data between the camera and the computer, we recommend
that you use an EH-21 AC adapter/battery charger (available separately) to
ensure a reliable power supply. If the camera is running on battery power, be
sure that the battery is charged. If possible, have spare batteries on hand. If
the battery runs low, turn the camera off and replace the battery after verify-
ing that the image transfer dialog is not displayed in the computer monitor.
8 Disconnect the camera
Once you have removed the camera from the system, you can disconnect
the interface cable or turn the camera off.
