KODAK DC240/DC280 Zoom Digital Camera
User's Guide
Using a USB Cable Connection

If you have a personal computer and are running Windows 98, or a Macintosh computer, you may be able to connect the camera using a Universal Serial Bus connection. The USB interface provides an easy and faster alternative to serial cable connection. However, since USB connections are relatively new, Kodak only recommends and supports using the camera with the systems listed above. When connecting the camera, it is a good idea to use an AC adapter specified by Kodak, see Using an AC Adapter.

1. Set the Mode dial to Connect.
2. Plug the appropriate end of USB cable into the port on the computer with the USB symbol.

   If the port is not labeled, see your computer User's Guide for a diagram that illustrates all of the external ports.

3. Open the serial/USB port door on the side of the camera.

   

4. Plug the other end of the USB cable into the camera serial/USB port.

   

5. Slide the POWER switch to the right to turn on the camera.

   If you get a message on your computer stating that you are not connected, refer to the USB.PDF [481 K] document installed with the software, or the online help for troubleshooting information.
