Notice for Customers in the U.S.A.
❏U.S.A. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
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.
Products that contain a radio
transmitter are labeled with FCC ID
and may also carry the FCC logo.
FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.
CAUTIONS
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications
made to this device that are not expressly approved by Nikon Corporation
may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Indoor operations
In according with 47 CFR Part15.407 (e) U-NII devices operating in 5.15-
5.25GHz frequency bands are restricted to indoor operations only.
Co-location
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
FCC 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 Transmitter (WT-4A) that is
installed SX-10WAG (FCC ID:N6C-SX10WAG / IC:4908B-SX10WAG) has been
tested and found to comply with FCC 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 WT-4A has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when
used with the Nikon Corporation accessories supplied or designated for this
product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.

CAUTION : This class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
ATTENTION : Cet appareil numerique de la classe B est conforme a la norme

❏IC RSS-GEN Exposure of Humans to RF Fields
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.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum
gain of 2.1 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per
regulations of Industry Canada. The Required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power
(EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.
Co-location
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.

The WT-4 uses TCP ports 20 and 21 for ftp and TCP port 15740 and UDP
port 5353 when connecting to a computer. Computer firewalls must be
configured to allow access to these ports, as otherwise the computer may
not be able to access the WT-4.
AMAC Address Filtering
If the network using MAC address fi ltering, the fi lter must be supplied
with the MAC address of the WT-4. After attaching the WT-4 to the
camera, choose [Device Info] > [MAC address] (pg.172) from the camera
setup menu and note the wireless and Ethernet MAC addresses.

Preparing the Camera
Introduction
Preparing the Camera
Before using the WT-4, set the camera [USB] option to [MTP/PTP],
insert a battery in the WT-4, and install the WT-4 Setup Utility and
Thumbnail Selector on the host computer.
Choosing “MTP/PTP”
Before connecting the WT-4, set the camera [USB] option to [MTP/
PTP] as described below. Make sure that the camera battery is fully
charged or the optional AC adapter is connected. See the camera
manual for more information.
1Turn the camera on.
2Select the [USB] in the camera setup
menu and choose [MTP/PTP]. See the
camera manual for details.
3Turn the camera off.

Introduction
Preparing the WT-4
Attach the Antenna
Attach the supplied antenna to the WT-4 as
shown in the diagram.
Inserting the Battery
To power the camera when the WT-4 is in place, insert the camera
battery into the WT-4 battery chamber or use an optional AC
adapter. The WT-4 takes one EN-EL3e rechargeable Li-ion battery;
other batteries can not be used. To ensure that transmission is not
interrupted during setup or upload, be sure the battery is fully
charged. Note that the drain on the battery is increased when the
WT-4 is attached.
1Open the battery chamber cover.
2Insert the battery as shown on
the inside of the battery
chamber cover.
•Make sure the battery is
oriented corrrectly when
inserting. Push the battery
latch toward the outside with
the side of the battery and insert the battery until the
battery latch locks the battery securely in place.
•See the battery and battery charger manuals for details on
battery recharging and other precautions.

Introduction
3Close the battery-chamber cover.
ARemoving the Battery
Being careful not to drop the battery, open the
battery chamber cover and remove the battery as
shown at right.
AStand-By Mode
Reduce the drain on the battery by selecting [Auto Power Off] (pg.173) in
the Menu Guide and set the time delay until the WT-4 automatically turns
Off after the USB connection between the camera and the WT-4 is
terminated. However, the camera will not enter stand-by mode while the
camera is transmitting to computer in Thumbnail select mode (pg.79).
ABattery Level
The level of the battery inserted in the WT-4 can be determined by
connecting the WT-4 to the camera (pg.70, 81, 90, 102, 140) and checking
the battery level in the [Battery info] (pg.172) menu in the camera setup
menu.
AThe EH-6 AC Adapter
The optional EH-6 AC adapter can also be used to
power the camera when the WT-4 is connected.
Connect the DC plug on the AC adapter to the
WT-4 DC-IN connector, not to the camera.
