Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the easiest way to connect to a Wi-Fi access point. You can do 
so simply by pushing a button (if the access point (wireless router) you want to connect to has a 
WPS button) or using a PIN code issued by the camera.
1
Press and hold the WPS button on the 
wireless router.
 The length of time required to hold down the WPS 
button depends on the wireless router. Refer to the 
instruction manual of your wireless router and 
make sure the wireless router’s WPS function is 
activated.

Within 2 minutes, press SET on the 
camera.
 While [Connecting] appears on the screen, you 
can press SET or the CANCEL button to cancel 
the operation.

controls), [ ] (recording start/stop only) and [ ] (metadata input 
screen).
[Camera Control User] Can access only the [ v] screen. During two-user operation, this 
would be the main operator controlling the camera.
[Meta Control User] Can access only the [ ] screen. During two-user operation, this 
would be the person in charge of updating the metadata information.
