battery as described below.
1 Open the battery-chamber cover.
Unlatch the cover by sliding it as shown
(q).
Open the cover (w).
2 Insert the battery.
Using the battery to keep the battery
latch pressed to one side, slide the
battery in until the latch clicks back into
place. For safety precautions and
information on charging the battery, see
the battery and charger manuals.
Getting Ready
3 Close the battery-chamber cover.
Reverse the instructions in Step 1 to close
and latch the cover as shown. Be sure the

3Introduction
Attaching the WT-7
After checking that the camera is off, align the WT-7 mounting
screw with the camera tripod socket and tighten by rotating the
attachment wheel in the direction shown by the LOCK arrow.
Getting Ready
Connecting the USB Cable
Connect the WT-7 to the camera using the USB cable supplied
with the WT-7 (D810 or D810A) or with the camera (D750 or
D7200).
4 Introduction
The Wireless Transmitter Utility
The Wireless Transmitter Utility is used for pairing in image transfer
and camera control modes (015) and can also help create
network profiles (088). You can install the utility after
downloading it from the following website:
http://downloadcenter.nikonimglib.com/
Be sure to use the latest versions of the Wireless Transmitter Utility
and the camera firmware.
A Removing the Battery
Being careful not to drop the battery, open the
WT-7 battery-chamber cover and remove the
battery as shown at right.
Getting Ready
A Stand-By Mode
When the WT-7 is disconnected from the camera or the camera is
turned off, the WT-7 will turn off automatically after the delay chosen for
Network > Options > Auto power off delay in the camera setup menu
(084), reducing the drain on the battery.
5Introduction
A Battery Level
The level of the battery inserted in the WT-7 can be determined by
connecting the WT-7 to the camera (04) and checking the battery level
using the Options > Battery info in the Network menu (083).
A Using an AC Adapter
To prevent loss of power when adjusting settings or transmitting
Getting Ready
images, use a fully-charged battery or an optional EP-5B power
connector and EH-5b AC adapter. An optional EH-5/EH-5a AC adapter
can also be used. Insert the power connector as shown below.
1 Unlatch the battery-chamber cover (q).
2 Open the battery-chamber (w) and power
connector covers (e).
3 Using the power connector to keep the battery
latch pressed to one side, slide the connector in
until the latch clicks back into place (r).
4 Position the power connector so that the cord
passes through the power connector slot and
close the battery-chamber cover (t). Be sure
that the cover is securely latched.
6 Introduction
Network Functions Available with the D810, D810A, D750, and D7200
The WT-7 wireless transmitter connects D810, D810A, D750, or

or ftp server, or upload new photos as they are
taken.
Control the camera using optional
Camera Control Pro 2 software and save new
photos and movies directly to the computer.
View and take pictures remotely using a browserequipped computer or iPhone.
7Introduction
D Choosing a Power Source
To prevent the camera or WT-7 powering off unexpectedly during setup
or data transfer, use fully-charged batteries or optional AC adapters
designated for use with the camera or WT-7. For more on camera power
sources, see the camera manual.
A FTP Servers
Network Functions Available with the D810, D810A, D750, and D7200
Servers can be configured using standard ftp services available with
supported operating systems, such as IIS (Internet Information
Services). Connection to computers on other networks via a router,
Internet ftp connections and ftp servers running third-party software
are not supported.
A Ethernet Connection
No adjustments to wireless LAN settings are required when the camera
is connected to a LAN by an Ethernet cable.
A HTTP Server Mode
Internet connections are not supported in http server mode.
A Routers
Connection to computers on other networks via a router is not
supported.
