the results on the screen. Networks you are not authorized to use 
(unknown networks) may also be displayed. However, attempting to

access. Be sure to use only networks you are authorized to use, and 
do not attempt to connect to other unknown networks.
If security settings have not been properly set, the following problems may 
occur.
 ● Transmission monitoring  
Third parties with malicious intent may monitor Wi-Fi transmissions 
and attempt to acquire the data you are sending.

over IP enables PictBridge connections in network 
environments, and the camera is also compatible with 
this standard.
