Connecting to other equipment
Connect the camera to a PC via the USB connection cable A
(supplied).
• Do not use any other USB connection cables except the supplied one. Use of
cables other than the supplied USB connection cable may cause malfunction.
Press 3/4 to select [PC], and then press
[MENU/SET].
• If [USB MODE] (P38) is set to [PC] in the [SETUP] menu in
advance, the camera will be automatically connected to the PC
without displaying the [USB MODE] selection screen. Since
there is no need to set this each time you connect to the PC, it
is convenient.
• When the camera has been connected to the PC with [USB MODE] set to
[PictBridge(PTP)], a message may appear on the PC’s screen. Select [Cancel] to close
the screen, and disconnect the camera from the PC. Then set [USB MODE] to [PC]
again.
Double-click on [Removable Disk] in [My Computer].
• When using a Macintosh, the drive is displayed on the desktop. (“LUMIX”, “NO_NAME”
or “Untitled” is displayed.)
Double-click [DCIM] folder.

A USB connection cable (supplied)
• Check the directions of the connectors, and plug them straight in or unplug them straight out.
(Otherwise the connectors may be bent out of shape which may cause malfunction.)
B Align the marks, and insert.
C DC cable (DMW-DCC3; optional)
• Use a battery with sufficient battery power or the AC adaptor (P183). If the remaining battery
power becomes low while the camera and the PC are communicating, the status indicator
blinks and the alarm beeps.
Refer to
