Installing the NexiCam software:
You must install the NexiCam software on the
iPAQ Pocket PC before using the camera. If you
do not, the iPAQ will not recognize the NexiCam
and will not take pictures.
Installing the NexiCam software on your iPAQ,
however, is a simple process. Here’s what to do:
(1) Insert the NexiCam installation CD in the
CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive of your computer
(2) If you’ve selected “AutoPlay” for CD-ROMs,
the disc will open up and you can select
“Setup” from the file/program menu
(3) Otherwise, use the Windows file explorer to
open the file menu on the CD and select
“Setup” to launch installation
(4) The program will ask you where to save the
installation files. Select a location by clicking
“Browse…,” or leave the default location
and click “Next”
(5) The computer will then schedule the NexiCam
software for installation on your handheld
during your next synchronization.
(6) Place your iPAQ Pocket PC in the docking
station or connect the synchronization cable
to the iPAQ Pocket PC. If ActiveSync doesn’t
automatically start, click on the desktop
ActiveSync icon or the ActiveSync icon on
your iPAQ Pocket PC.
(7) The NexiCam software will be installed during
this synchronization – do not disconnect the
iPAQ Pocket PC during this time. Wait until
the synchronization is finished.
(8) The program will ask if the “Nexian
NexiCam” should be installed in the default
installation directory… Click “Yes”
(9) It will ask you to check your mobile device
screen to see if there are additional steps
necessary to complete the installation
(10) On your iPAQ Pocket PC, click “Yes” to
restart
(11) When the ActiveSync is finished, your
NexiCam software is installed on the iPAQ
Pocket PC. End the session, disconnect the
iPAQ and you’re ready to go!

Getting Startedcontinued
Connecting the NexiCam and the iPAQ:

Using the NexiCam
(1) Turn on the iPAQ Pocket PC. While
starting, the NexiCam will be recognized
and you can start the camera application
from the iPAQ “Programs” menu.
(2) Make sure the lens cap is moved away
from the lens (slide the lens cap) so the
lens can focus.
(3) The camera will start in “Camera”
mode, and will seek to focus on an image.
Icons and Buttons
The Controls on the Camera
In Camera Mode, there are five indicators on
the top of the screen: the zoom level (1X or 2X),
the image size (e.g. 800-by-600), the Camera
Mode icon (which changes to a picture of an
album in Album Mode), the iPAQ Pocket PC
battery power remaining percentage, and the
storage space remaining (number of pictures
remaining and megabytes of memory remaining).
These indicators can give you a quick “read” on
how the NexiCam is functioning.

There are four onscreen buttons:
Preview:initiates Preview Mode
