You can operate your camcorder remotely from a BIP compatible computer or PDA
with Bluetooth function.

You can use your camcorder as a remote camera and do the following:
• Recording the image with your camcorder while monitoring remotely with the screen

of a connected device

• Zoom (telephoto/wide)
• Recording a still image on “Memory Stick”
• Tape recording
• Pan/Tilt

(Using digital zoom function lets you perform Pan/Tilt even without a tripod, etc.)

The functions you can operate are different depending on the connected Bluetooth
device. For details, refer to the operating instructions of the connected Bluetooth device.

You can use your camcorder as a remote camera up to three hours.
Your camcorder automatically turns off after three hours.
Do not use your camcorder for hours as a surveillance camera and such.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.

Preparation

(1) Set the POWER switch of your camcorder to CAMERA.

(2) Tap FN and select PAGE3.

(3) Tap RMT CAM.

The message “REMOTE CAMERA STANDBY” appears on the screen.
When the connection is established, “REMOTE CAMERA” appears on the
screen.

Tips
• Certain Bluetooth devices require authentication to connect to your camcorder. When

the passkey input screen appears on the screen of your camcorder, enter the passkey
into the connected device.

• When the message “REMOTE CAMERA STANDBY” on the screen is displayed for

five minutes and connection is still not established, the screen returns to PAGE3.

• The time limit for entering the passkey is 30 seconds. If it takes more than 30 seconds

to finish entering the passkey, a passkey error occurs, authentication fails and your
camcorder returns to connection standby.
