Transferring Memory Card Images to a Computer Elura 40MC

You can download still images/movies from a memory card to a PC connected via the USB interface. By using the provided software, you can organize and store still images/movies and print out still images with added titles or frames. Use the USB cable and the Canon Digital Video Solution Disk/ArcSoft Camera Suite CD provided with the camcorder.

1. Install the software.
   
   

2. Connect the camcorder and the PC with an USB cable.
   
   

3. Turn the camcorder's POWER switch to PLAY (VCR) and move the TAPE/CARD switch to CARD.
   - "PC CONNECT [USB]" appears in the display to indicate that USB connection is being performed.
   
   

4. Start the software and download still images/movies from the memory card to the computer.

Do not disconnect the USB cable, open the memory card cover, remove the memory card, change the position of the TAPE/CARD switch or turn off the camcorder and computer while data is being transferred to the computer (while the camcorder's card access indicator is flashing). Doing so may damage the memory card's data. Operation may not work correctly depending on the software and the specifications/settings of your computer. The image files on your memory card and the image files saved on the hard disk drive of your computer are valuable, original data files. If you wish to use image files on your computer, make copies of them first, and use the copied file, retaining the original. Make sure that camcorder and computer are not connected with a DV cable before connecting the camcorder to the computer using the USB cable. Otherwise, the computer may not operate properly.

The buttons on the camcorder (except for the POWER switch and TAPE/CARD switch) do not operate during USB connection.
