Precautions
•Before using the network function, make sure to set the clock on the camcorder. For
details, refer to the operating instructions of the camcorder. If you use the network
function without setting the clock, you may not be able to send/receive e-mail or view
a web page.
•Do not remove the battery pack or disconnect the AC power adaptor while operating

NETWORK mode when setting the POWER switch to (CHG) OFF or switching the
mode. These are to prevent the NETWORK mode setup from being lost.
•It is recommended that you make backup copies of your email messages and your
network preferences. These may be lost from time to time due to memory corruption.
To save the network preferences, write them down on paper, or use “Setup memo,”
described (p. 109). Also, this data may be lost when the camcorder is repaired by
services.
•The reset button cannot reset the network preferences.
Note on network operation when using the battery pack
When the remaining battery time is insufficient in NETWORK mode, use the AC power
adaptor or replace the battery pack with a fully charged battery pack. Before connecting
the AC power adaptor or replacing the battery pack, be sure to exit the NETWORK
mode.

Communicating with Bluetooth devices
Before communication
What is the Bluetooth wireless technology?
The Bluetooth wireless technology allows communication between various Bluetooth
devices without using cables. Devices which can use this technology include PCs,
computer peripheral devices, PDAs, and mobile phones. This omnidirectional
communication system enables communication even if the Bluetooth device is in a bag
or having obstacles between the devices.
Also, the Bluetooth wireless technology has advanced security functions, such as
scrambled frequencies and data encryption.
Authentication
The authentication routine can block unspecified users’access to this network. When
attempting communication with an unregistered Bluetooth device, the devices must
first be registered with each other by entering a common passkey to each device. When
connecting with a previously registered Bluetooth device, communication starts
without entering the passkey.
Tip on “Passkey”
ThepasskeyisanidentificationnumberneededtoallowtwoBluetoothdevicesto
communicatewitheachother.Theconnectionwillbepermittedafterenteringthe
passkey.This“Passkey”isalsoreferredtoasa“Bluetoothpasskey”,“PIN”,
“BluetoothPIN”,etc.
Radio wave indication
indicates the radio wave status of the connected Bluetooth device. (Use this
indication as a guide.)

Preparation
Registering a Bluetooth device
To communicate with a Bluetooth device, you need to register it. Here we describe how
to register the Sony Modem Adaptor with Bluetooth Function. Once registration is
complete, you do not have to reregister the Bluetooth device as long as you do not
cancel registration. You can register up to three Bluetooth devices. Also, refer to the
operating instructions supplied with your Bluetooth device.
For more information about Bluetooth devices compatible with your camcorder, access
the following URL: “http://www.sony-imaging.com/support/”
Using your Modem Adaptor with Bluetooth Function
Connecting your camcorder to a Bluetooth device by Bluetooth wireless technology and
communicating.
