Notice for Customers in the U.S.A.

U.S.A. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation of the device is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Products that contain a radio transmitter are

 

labeled with FCC ID and may also carry the FCC

FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit di erent from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ television technician for help.

CAUTIONS

Modifications

The FCC requires the user to be notifi ed that any changes or modifi cations made to this device that are not expressly approved by Nikon Corporation may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Interface Cables

Use the interface cables sold or provided by Nikon for your equipment. Using other interface cables may exceed the limits of Class B Part 15 of the FCC rules.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health e ects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health e ects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological e ects. Some studies have suggested that some biological e ects might occur, but such fi ndings have not been confirmed by additional research. This Wireless Transmitter (WT-3A) has been tested and found to comply with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines on radio frequency energy (RF) exposures. The maximum SAR levels tested for theWirelessTransmitter (WT-3A) have been shown to be 0.2 W/kg at head.

This equipment complies with both FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. When theWireless Transmitter is connected with the WA-E1 extended range antenna, it is considered as a mobile radiator and should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body. This device should not be co-located or operated with any other antenna or transmitter.

Notice for Customers in the State of California, U.S.A.

WARNING: Handling the cord on this product will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Notices for Customers in Canada

CAUTION: This class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing Equipment Regulations.

ATTENTION: Cet appareil numérique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur du Canada.

RSS-GEN Exposure of Humans to RF Fields

This equipment complies with both FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. When the Wireless Transmitter is connected with the WA-E1 extended range antenna, it is considered as a mobile radiator and should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body. The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such that it does not emit RF fi eld in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s website at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

This device has been designed to operate with the antenna listed below, and having a maximum gain of 3.0 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 3.0 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

• The WA-E1 extended range antenna (available separately)

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.

Notice for Customers in Europe

Hereby, Nikon, declares that this digital camera is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.

Notice for Customers in France

Outdoor use of wireless transceivers is prohibited in France.

Setup

Follow the steps below to prepare the WT-3 for use:

Update the camera firmware : The WT-3 is supported from camera fi rmware A version 2.00 and B version 2.00. Users of earlier versions will need to update the camera fi rmware as described in the fi rmware update manual on the supplied WT-3 Setup Utility CD.

Copy network profiles to the camera: Users of Windows XP Service Pack 1 or later or Mac OS X version 10.3 or later can copy computer or printer profi les to the camera using the supplied WT-3 Setup Utility. Skip this step when using the camera rather than a computer to adjust settings for connection to an ftp server in transfer mode (48).

Install the WT-3 Setup Utility (7)

Copy network profiles to the camera (11)

Connect the WT-3 (18)

Insert the battery ( 20)

After setting up the WT-3 as described on the following pages, proceed to“Uploading Images: Transfer Mode” ( 21), “Controlling the Camera: PC Mode” ( 26), or “Printing Pictures: Print Mode” ( 30).

Updating the Camera Firmware

The WT-3 is supported from camera fi rmware A version 2.00 and B version 2.00. Display the camera fi rmware version as described in the camera manual. If earlier versions are installed, update the camera fi rmware as described in the fi rmware update manual on the supplied WT-3 Setup Utility CD.

To display the fi rmware update manual, start the Install Center as described in Steps 1–3 of “Install the WT-3 Setup Utility” on page 7 (Windows) or 9 (Macintosh) and click D200 Firmware to display the “D200 Firmware”folder. Double-clicking INDEX.pdf displays a list

of languages; click a language to display the update

manual (Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.0 D200 Firmware or later required).

Additional Updates

Once the camera fi rmware has been updated for use with the WT-3 as described above, all subsequent updates should be performed with the WT-3 connected ( 18) and O selected for Wireless transmitter > Wireless LAN system ( 34).
