Caution for using wireless LAN card
Receiving Level Indicator of Wireless LAN
If you are using wirelss LAN card that can
detect receiving level, receiving level
indicator is shown next to the card status infor-
mation on LCD of your camcorder. The indica-
tor shows value from 5 to 0, 5 means
maximum level and 0 means minimum level.
(The indicator is for reference. The value does

WLAN CH is the wireless frequency band
used for communication. If there is an access
point, adapter, etc., using the same band in
the proximity, there may be a hindrance in the
communication and may reduce throughput
or the quality of communication. When setting,
check the settings of surrounding access
points, etc., to avoid doubling.
