ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS
TRANSFERRING DATA TO A COMPUTER
The Leica S is compatible with the following operating systems:
Microsoft®: Windows® XP / Vista® / 7®
Apple® Macintosh®: Mac® OS X (10.5 or higher)
The Leica S is equipped with a USB 2.0 interface for transferring data to a
computer. This allows fast data transfer to computers with the same kind
of interface. The computer used must either have a USB port (for direct
connection to the Leica S) or a card reader for CF or SD/SDHC/SDXC
cards.
Note:
Connecting two or more devices to a computer or connecting using a
USB hub or extension cables can result in malfunctions.
Via USB connection
The Leica S allows data to be transferred via a USB cable using two dif-
ferent standards. It thus takes accounts of the fact that some programs
for transferring picture data require a connection complying with the PTP
protocol.
In addition, it is always possible to operate the camera as an external
drive ("bulk storage").
Setting the function
1. In the SETUP menu (see p. 17/26) select, USB Mode (5.21), and
2. then PTP or Mass Storage in the submenu.
CONNECTING AND TRANSFERRING DATA
USING THE PTP PROTOCOL
If the Leica S is set to PTP and is detected by the connected computer,
proceed as follows:
Note:
When transferring data using the PTP standard, all pictures on the
memory card used are displayed on the computer, provided storage of
the image data is set to Sequential or Parallel (see p. 35). By contrast, if
External is set, no data is transferred.
In Windows® XP® / Vista® / 7®
3. Use the LEMO® USB cable supplied (D) to connect the LEMO® data
output socket (1.33) on the Leica S to a free USB port on the computer.
To do this, first open the cover (1.26) over the socket to the front.
In Windows® XP®
After connecting, a message appears on the desktop to confirm that the
Leica S has been detected as new hardware (1st connection only).
4. Double-click on the message (not necessary after the 1st connection).
A pull-down menu entitled "S Digital Camera" opens for the data
transfer wizard.
5. Click on "OK" and follow the subsequent instructions in the wizard to
copy the pictures to a folder of your choice and access them in the
normal way.
In Windows® Vista®/7®
After installation, a message appears above the taskbar to indicate that
the device driver software is being installed.
At the same time, USB Connection appears on the camera display.
Successful installation is confirmed by a further message window.
The "Autoplay" menu opens, with various device options.
4. You can use the Windows wizard to "Import Images" or "Open Device
to View Files" in the normal way to
5. access the card directory structure using Windows Explorer.
In Mac® OS X® (10.5 or higher)
1. Use the LEMO® USB cable supplied (D) to connect the LEMO® data
output socket (1.33) on the Leica S to a free USB port on the com-
puter. First, the cover (1.26) over the socket on the camera must be
opened to the front.
When a connection has been successfully established between the
camera and the computer, USB-Verbindung appears on the camera
display.
2. Now open the "Finder" on the computer.
3. In the left window, click on “Programs” in the "Locations" category.
4. Now select the "Digital Images" program in the right window.
The program opens and the name "S Digital Camera" appears in the
program title bar.
5. The pictures can now be saved on the computer using the "Load" but-
ton.
