Preparation: 4 Setting up the photo

frame

Follow the on-screen instructions.

1 Calibrate the touch screen.

1 Tap on the screen once.

A circle is displayed.

2 Tap the circles displayed one after another.

After you tap the circles several times, the

calibration display is closed.

3 Tap [Complete].

The language selection display appears.

The settings can be changed later.

• If you did not tap the right spot, try the calibration again.

• Touch Screen Calibration can also be performed, as described in “Changing the Settings”

(page 56). The purpose of the Touch Screen Calibration is to adjust the reaction of the

touch screen properly. Perform it if the touch screen does not react on the tapped position.

• This photo frame employs a resistive-film (pressure-sensitive) touch panel. The pressure-

sensitive panel operates when it detects pressure from your tapping on the panel. The panel

will respond more precisely when you apply pressure to a small area (a point). It is

recommended to tap the panel with a fingertip or plastic fine object. If the panel is tapped

with weak force or on a wide area (with the ball of a finger), it may be slow to respond.

• The touch panel responds to a single point only. Be careful that other finger or part of your

hand does not touch the screen.

2 Select the screen language.

1 Drag with your finger to scroll through the list

and tap to select the language.

2 Tap [Next].

Tap [Search] so that the connectable access point list is shown. Select an access point to

which you want to connect from this list and enter SSID (network name) and passphrase

(security key), following the on-screen instructions.

t Go to “C Search Wi-Fi Networks” (page 17).

• WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is a standard for connecting with Wi-Fi protected by security

easily. Before setting Wi-Fi, check if your access point confirms with the WPS standard

where the WPS button is, and how to use the WPS button.

• The WPS button may be named differently, depending on the access point.

• Refer also to the operating instructions for the wireless LAN router (access point). The

Network name (SSID) and Password (WEP key or WPA key) are printed on the

side or rear of the access point.

If they are not clear, contact the manufacturer of the access point.

To remove the memory card

Remove the memory card from its slot in the opposite direction from which it was inserted.

Do not remove the memory card while an image is displayed on the screen. Doing so may

damage the recorded data in the memory card. It is better to press MENU on the rear of the

unit to display the menu before removing a memory card.

• If playback does not start even if you insert a memory card, check the direction and reinsert

it.

• When no memory card is inserted, if no image is stored in internal memory, the

demonstration display appears automatically. The demonstration display closes when a

memory card with image data is inserted, or when any button other than 1 (on/satndby) is

pressed.

• Do not simultaneously insert multiple memory cards and USB flash drive into the memory

card slots A/B or the USB connector. Do not insert memory cards into slots A and B

simultaneously. It may be a cause of breakage of the photo frame.

• Note the following when you select a slideshow using the image stored in a memory card.

– Owing to the characteristics of memory card devices, images may be subject to data errors

when read too often.

– Do not run a slideshow for a long time with a small number of images. This may cause data

errors.

– We recommend you back up images in the memory card often.

• The slideshow will not start from the point where you stopped if you turn off.

• When the screen is too bright, it may make you feel nauseous. Be careful not to have the

brightness set too high when you use the photo frame.

• An image file shot with a DSC that doesn’t support Exif rotate tag recording cannot be

rotated automatically.
