Connections: Connecting the Camera to a Computer

Connecting the Camera to a Computer

Serial cables are provided with your COOLPIX 900 for connec-
tion to Macintosh and IBM-compatible computers. If Nikon
View 900
is installed on your computer, a serial connection can
be used to browse the photographs stored in the camera. To
connect the camera to a computer, remove the rubber cap that
covers the camera’s serial connector. Then, after making sure
that both camera and computer are off, connect the serial cable
as shown below. The cable can be connected when both the
camera and computer are on or when they are off.

Attach the other end of the cable to the computer’s serial port
(IBM compatibles) or printer or modem port (Macintosh).

Note:

When connecting the COOLPIX 900 to a computer, use

only the cables provided with the camera. The COOLPIX 900
comes with a 9-pin RS-232C serial cable for connection to a male
9-pin serial connector, standard on many IBM-compatible comput-
ers, and a mini DIN 8-pin RS-232/RS-422 serial cable for connec-
tion to Macintosh computers. Use the cable appropriate to your
computer.
