my Picturetown Setup Workflow
Before taking advantage of my Picturetown services using the wireless LAN features of the
COOLPIX S610c, the camera’s wireless settings must be configured and you must register
with my Picturetown. These two processes are generally referred to as “setup.” The camera’s
wireless settings can be configured using a computer and the my Picturetown Utility
(supplied), or by using just the camera. Follow either of the procedures described below.

The my Picturetown Utility
• The my Picturetown Utility (hereafter “Utility“) is software that can be installed on a computer and
used to configure the camera’s wireless settings, and to request user registration with
my Picturetown when the camera is connected to a computer via the supplied USB cable. The
Utility is convenient for entering a large amount of text.
• The Utility is installed from the Software Suite CD supplied with the camera (A 13).
D Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
• Wi-Fi Protected Setup is a standard that simplifies home connection and security of wireless
devices.
• The COOLPIX S610c supports WPS. If your wireless LAN access point also supports WPS,
configuring the network connection between your home wireless LAN access point and the
camera is simple. (See the documentation provided with your access point to confirm whether or
not WPS is supported.)
See “Configuring a Network Profile for a Home Wireless LAN Using WPS” (A 39) for detailed
information about using WPS to configure a network profile. Note that WPS cannot be used to
configure a network profile for a public wireless LAN access point.
