KODAK DC5000 Zoom Digital Camera
User's Guide
Using a USB Cable Connection

If you have a personal computer with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port, and are running Windows 98, Windows 2000, or a Macintosh 8.5.1 or higher computer, you may be able to connect the camera using a USB connection. The USB interface provides an easy and faster alternative to a serial cable connection. KODAK only recommends and supports using the camera with the systems listed in the System Requirements on.

When connecting the camera, it is a good idea to use a KODAK-specified AC adapter to conserve battery power.

  1. Set the Mode dial to Connect.

  2. Plug the appropriate end of the 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 document installed with the software, or the online help for troubleshooting information.
