Notices
This product, which contains encryption software developed in the United States, is
controlled by the United States Export Administration Regulations and may not be
exported or re-exported to any country to which the United States embargoes goods. As
of April 2007 the following countries were subject to embargo: Cuba, Iran, North Korea,
Sudan, and Syria.
Restrictions on Wireless Devices
The wireless transceiver included in this product conforms to wireless regulations in the
country of sale and is not for use in other countries (products purchased in the EU or
EFTA can be used anywhere within the EU and EFTA). Nikon does not accept liability for
use in other countries. Users who are unsure as to the original country of sale should
consult with their local Nikon service center or Nikon-authorized service representative.
This restriction applies to wireless operation only and not to any other use of the
product.
Notice for customers in the U.S.A. and Canada
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada (IC)
Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules and RSS-Gen of IC rules. 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 this device.
FCC/IC RF 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 effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not
produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-
level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by
additional research. Wireless LAN Module (GC-131) has been tested and found to
comply with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment
and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65
and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. Please refer to the SAR test
report that was uploaded at FCC website.
This device should not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna
or transmitter.

Ready Information Required for
Wireless LAN Connection
Network Profile
Retrieve settings for the wireless LAN network to which the camera will be connected.
This information is necessary when setting up the camera’s network profile (A17, 28).
(There is no need to ready this information when using WPS to configure a network
profiles.)
When connecting via a home wireless LAN, retrieve the wireless LAN network settings
from the network profile for a computer connected to the wireless LAN access point.
For information on displaying the network profile, see the documentation provided
with the wireless LAN access point, or contact the manufacturer of the device.
When connecting via a public wireless LAN, retrieve the wireless LAN network settings
from information provided by the wireless service provider to which you subscribe (Aiv).
SSID (network name)
This is the name of the wireless LAN network to which the access point belongs. The SSID
is comprised of up to 32 alphanumerical characters.
Authentication
All data are encrypted to protect against interception by third parties. The same type of
encryption (authentication method) must be specified for both the wireless LAN access
point and the camera.
Select an authentication method from Open system, Shared key, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK.
Encryption
This is the type of encryption for the method selected for Authentication.
The type of encryption available differs depending upon the authentication method.
Encryption key
This is the encryption key for the specified type of Authentication and Encryption. An
encryption key is not required when Authentication is set to Open system and
Encryption is set to None.
Key index
When Encryption is set to WEP, select a key index, which is the setting for the WEP key.
The camera’s default setting is 1. If selecting a key index other than 1, use the Utility to
specify a setting suited to the wireless LAN access point (A17). Specification of the a key
index is not required when Encryption is set to None, TKIP, or AES.

IP address (home wireless LAN only)
This is a unique identifier assigned to communication devices on a computer network. The
IP address can be acquired automatically with this camera. If the network uses a fixed IP
address, manually enter the camera’s IP address, as well as the subnet mask, gateway,
primary DNS, and secondary DNS.
User name/Password (public wireless LAN only)
The user name and password provided by the wireless service provider to which you
subscribe may be necessary when configuring the camera’s network profile or connecting
to the network.
When MAC Address Filtering Disables Home Wireless LAN Access
If your access point’s SSID is not set to “any” (to allow connection of any wireless
device), or if MAC address filtering (a unique identifier attached to each device on a
LAN) is enabled, use a computer to modify access point settings to allow connection
of any wireless device and register the camera’s MAC address with the access point
beforehand. Follow the procedure below to confirm the camera’s MAC address.

next time you select A (Picture Bank) mode in the playback-mode
selection menu and press the k button, the confirmation dialog
shown at right will be displayed. If necessary, you can change the

CFile Types Supported by Picture Bank
Still pictures, including those with voice memos attached, and movie files can be uploaded using
the Picture Bank service. Voice recording files cannot be uploaded.
CPicture Bank Images
Pictures that have been uploaded to the my Picturetown server are referred to as “Picture Bank
images” and can be recognized by L icon displayed with them in full-frame playback mode. Once
the icon has been displayed with a picture, that picture cannot be uploaded to the server a second
time using the automatic upload feature initiated when the AC adapter is connected to the camera.

such a way that the antenna is obstructed, or remove any obstacles
between the camera antenna and access point. Signal strength may
be improved (A52, 53).
CWireless LAN LED
The wireless LAN LED, located on the side of the camera with the
antenna, indicates connection status.
Blinks: The camera is searching for a network.
