Troubleshooting / FAQ 
Q: I have a USB camera connected, but MemoryFrame doesn’t recognize my 
camera. 
A:  The camera will need to be set into the appropriate mode to transmit its 
images.  Many cameras have two modes of operation: proprietary and 
standard (driver-less) mode, and the camera has menu items and/or buttons 
that set the USB mode.  The standard (driver-less) makes the camera look 
like a drive-letter to Windows Explorer without the need for the camera 
manufacturer's custom driver. This standard driverless mode (called “disk-
drive” mode by some cameras) is required to interface to MemoryFrame
See the camera’s user manual for details of how to prepare the camera for 
driver-less USB transfers. 
Even though the camera is a USB model, the camera may not support the 
USB Mass Storage specification. The DirectConnect
TM
 feature of 
MemoryFrame allows a user to directly attach a USB camera without the 
need for a PC.  For the DirectConnect feature of MemoryFrame to operate 
seamlessly with the camera, the camera needs to support the USB Mass 
Storage specification. This specification (co-authored by Microsoft) is 
built into Windows®98SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows 
XP.  If a camera supports this spec, then it does NOT need its own custom 
driver from the camera manufacturer for Windows to recognize and be 
able to use it as a “drive letter” in Windows Explorer.  This allows you to 
drag images from the camera onto the hard-drive.   
If the camera is not recognized by MemoryFrame, then the camera won’t 
work in DirectConnect mode, and instead, such a non-compliant camera 
must use either a PC (running Digital PixMaster software) or a USB 
memory-card-reader in order to get its images into the MemoryFrame.  
Check the Digital Spectrum website for a partial list of cameras which are 
known to be compliant to the Microsoft USB Mass Storage specification. 
You may also want to contact Digital Spectrum customer support to see if 
there is a software upgrade available to support the camera. 
Q: I did not need to install a custom driver for Windows® XP to recognize my 
USB camera, but MemoryFrame still doesn’t recognize my camera. 
A:  The camera may not support the USB Mass Storage specification, and 
Microsoft may have included the custom driver for the camera model in 
the XP release.  The DirectConnect specifies on the box that the camera 
needs to support the USB Mass Storage specification. If the camera is not 
recognized by MemoryFrame, then the camera won’t work in 
DirectConnect mode, and instead, such a non-compliant camera must use
