Notes on PHOTOVU/MPEG4 Movie Messenger™ System operation
 For PHOTOVU/MPEG4 Movie Messenger™ System, do not connect the i.LINK and
USB terminals to the Palmcorder at the same time.
 Make sure Palmcorder power is not shut off during use as your PC system may become
unstable. Therefore, the AC Adaptor should be used as the power source. (Be
especially careful when recording in M-CARD or CAMERA mode as the power
eventually shuts off automatically if a tape is inserted.)
 For PHOTOVU/MPEG4 Movie Messenger™ System, if the play, stop, fast forward,
and rewind functions are operated using the Palmcorder buttons, the image may not be
captured properly. Use Palmcorder Operation Buttons displayed on the PC screen.
