•You cannot copy individual images.

•The original images in the internal memory are retained even after copying. To delete the contents of the internal memory, remove the “Memory Stick Duo” after copying, then execute the [Format] command in

(Internal Memory Tool).

•You cannot select a folder copied on a “Memory Stick Duo”.

•Even if you copy data, a (Print order) mark is not copied.

Method for formatting the internal memory

This item does not appear when a “Memory Stick Duo” is inserted in the camera. The default settings are marked with .

Format

Formats the internal memory.

•Note that formatting irrevocably erases all data in the internal memory, including even protected images.

1-1-3. Using Method of SEUS

The application for adjustment (SEUS) is used to change the coefficient for calculating the signal processing or EVR data. The SEUS performs two-way communication between PC and set through the USB terminal. The two-way communication result data can be written to the nonvolatile memory.

1. Connection

1) Connect the HASP key to the USB terminal of the PC.

2) Connect the PC and set with the USB cable.

3) Confirm that the set starts in the USB mode.

4) Start the SEUS on the PC.

5) Click [Connect] on the SEUS screen. If the connection is normal, the SEUS screen will be as shown in Fig. 6-1-8, indicating the “connected” state.

Note: The SEUS will go in

1-2. ADJUSTMENT PROGRAMS

The DSC-S600 is adjusted with the Automatic Adjustment Program. The Automatic Adjustment Program automatically controls the adjustment operations that were formerly entered manually on the operation screen of the SEUS (some adjustments may be manually operated on the SEUS operation screen).

1-2-1. Automatic Adjustment Program

1. Precautions When Using Automatic Adjustment Program

1) The Automatic Adjustment Program writes the adjustment results such as EVR data to the set through two-way communication with the camera via the SEUS. Accordingly, the Automatic Adjustment Program must be used in the environment where the SEUS operates.

2) The program run time may vary depending on the environment of the personal computer used.

3) The SEUS must be already started on the PC when using the Automatic Adjustment Program. With the SEUS not started, some adjustment items will take time in adjustment.

2. Start of Automatic Adjustment Program

Double-click the application file (DSC-S600 Auto-Adj Ver_1.[]r

[][]

.exe), and the Automatic Adjustment Program will start.

3. Function of Each Button on Main Menu Screen

When the Automatic Adjustment Program started, the Main Menu screen in Fig. 6-1-9 will appear. On this screen, select each adjustment section.
