TRANSFERRING DATA TO A COMPUTER

The Leica X-E is compatible with the following operating systems:
Microsoft ® : Windows ® XP / Vista
Apple ® Macintosh ® : Mac ® OS X (10.4) and higher
The Leica X-E is equipped with a USB 2.0 High Speed interface for transferring
data to a computer. This allows fast data transfer to computers with the same
kind of interface. The computer used must have either a USB port (for direct
connection to the Leica X-E) or a card reader for SD/SDHC/SDXC cards
(including UHS I standard types).
CONNECTING AND TRANSFERRING DATA WITH THE CAMERA'
AS AN EXTERNAL DRIVE
With Windows operating systems:
If the Leica X-E is connected to the computer using a USB cable, the operating
system detects it as an external drive and assigns it a drive letter. Use Win-
dows Explorer to transfer the picture data to your computer and save it.
With Mac operating systems:
If the Leica X-E is connected to the computer using a USB cable, the memory
card used appears as a storage medium on the desktop. Use the Finder to
transfer the picture data to your computer and save it.

Important:
• Only use the USB cable (D) supplied.
• While data is being transferred from the Leica X-E to the computer, the con-
nection may not under any circumstances be broken by removing the USB
cable, as otherwise the computer and/or the Leica X-E may "crash" and the
memory card may even be irreparably damaged.
• The Leica X-E cannot be switched off or automatically switch itself off due
to a lack of battery power while data is being transferred from the camera to
the computer, as this may cause the computer to crash'. For the same rea-
son the battery must never be removed from the camera while the connec-
tion is active. If the battery capacity runs short during data transfer, the
screen (2.1.26) appears with the battery capacity indication (2.1.5) flashing.
In this case, stop the data transfer, switch off the Leica X-E (see p. 104) and
charge the battery (see p. 100).
