Precaution  
The camera does not have a power  
Cleaning the camera  
switch.  
Before cleaning the camera, turn the power  
off. Not doing so may cause injury.  
Do not wipe or use volatile solutions such  
as benzene or paint thinner on the camera.  
Doing so may discolor the case. When  
using a chemically-treated cloth, read and  
follow the precautions for the cloth.  
In the case of stubborn dirt  
Wipe with a soft cloth moistened in a weak  
solution of water and neutral kitchen  
detergent. Wring all excess moisture from  
the cloth before wiping. Next, wipe off all  
remaining solution with a soft, dry cloth.  
In order to the power off, turn the power  
breaker off.  
Note the following to ensure long-term  
trouble-free operation.  
Long operation under high temperatures  
and high humidity can cause components  
to deteriorate and shorten camera life.  
(Less than +35°C (95°F) is recommended)  
Make sure that the camera is installed in a  
location where it is not directly exposed to  
heat from a radiator, heater, etc.  
Do not touch the dome cover with your  
bare hands.  
Product Information  
Check the product ID, power requirements,  
and other information marked on the rear  
and bottom of the product.  
A dirty dome cover causes deterioration of  
picture quality.  
Handle the camera carefully.  
Do not drop the camera, or subject it to  
strong impact or vibration.  
Refresh Interval  
The refresh interval may be longer  
depending on the network environment, PC  
performance, photographic subject, access  
traffic, etc.  
Doing so may cause a malfunction.  
About the PC to be used  
Displaying the same image on CRT type  
PC monitors for a long time may damage  
the monitor. We recommend using a  
screen saver.  
Cleaning the lens  
Use lens cleaning paper (like the type  
available for cleaning eyeglasses or a  
camera lens) to clean the lens. Alcohol-  
based solvents may be used for cleaning  
the lens. Do not use glass cleaners or paint  
thinners.

• For details on how to format SD  
memory cards, refer to the "Setup  
Manual."  
• We recommend using SD memory  
cards whose operation has already  
been confirmed (page 16). When an  
SD memory card other than one  
recommended by Panasonic is used,  
the SD memory card may not function  
properly, or the camera's performance  
may be reduced.  
SD Memory Card  
• Before inserting an SD memory card,  
turn the camera off. If the SD memory  
card is inserted while the camera is still  
turned on, the SD memory card may  
not function properly, or the data  
recorded on the SD memory card may  
be damaged.  
CCD Color Filter Burn-in  
Intense light concentrated on one spot for a  
long period can cause deterioration of the  
CCD internal color filters, and discoloration  
of the affected part. Even if the position of a  
fixed camera is changed, the discoloration  
at the previous location of the concentrated  
light will remain on the screen.  
For details on how to insert and remove  
SD memory cards, see page 32.

Precaution (continued)  
Do not point the camera at a strong light  
source.  
Dehumidifying Element  
• This camera has a built-in dehumidify-  
ing element to maintain a low-humidity  
state inside the camera. This prevents  
condensation from forming.  
• Intense light such as that produced by a  
spotlight concentrated on one part of  
the screen can cause blooming  
(rainbow around the strong light) or  
smearing (vertical stripes above and  
below the strong light).  
• Condensation forms due to tempera-  
ture, humidity, weather and other  
conditions, and may take time to clear  
up.  
Smearing

Functions  
Super Dynamic III (SUPER-D III  
)
When there is wide variation between the illumination of light and dark areas of the location  
being monitored, the camera adjusts the lens iris in accordance with the bright areas. This  
causes loss of detail in dark areas. Conversely, adjusting lens brightness for the dark areas  
causes brighter areas to become washed out.  
SUPER-D III digitally combines an image that is set up for a clear view of bright areas with  
an image that is set up for a clear view of dark areas, creating a final image that preserves  
overall detail.  
Hard to see dark areas  
Hard to see bright areas  
Digital combination  
reproduces a clear view  
Motion Detector  
This function outputs an alarm signal when motion is detected in the monitoring area, such  
as the camera being covered with a cloth or its cover, or the camera's orientation being  
changed, during monitoring.  
..............................................................................................................................  
Note  
• The motion detector function is not exclusively for preventing theft, fire, etc. The  
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for any accidents that occur or any losses  
incurred while this product is being used.

Functions (continued)  
Progressive output  
Jagged edges that are unique to interlaced cameras and that occur in areas with movement  
are corrected by the motion adaptive interlace/progressive conversion function and  
converted to progressive images. This allows both still and moving objects to be captured as  
well-defined images.  
Privacy Zone Setting  
The privacy zone function allows you to mask specific areas, such as housing, of a  
monitored scene from view.  
Auto Back Focus Function  
Back focus can be automatically adjusted by operating the buttons on the camera, which  
makes installation easier. Back focus can also be adjusted on the PC after the camera is  
installed.  
When switching between color and black and white images, the back focus is automatically  
adjusted and focus deviation is corrected.  
Recording to an SD Memory Card  
Camera images can be saved to an SD memory card when an alarm occurs.  
Images can also be backed up when a network failure occurs.  
..............................................................................................................................  
Note  
• This operation has already been confirmed on the following SD memory cards:  
Panasonic SD memory cards (64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB)  
SDHC memory card is not supported.

Camera Installation Location  
Discuss the installation location for the  
camera with your retailer, and select a  
place that is strong enough for the installa-  
tion.  
• At sea, in coastal areas, or in areas  
where corrosive gas is being  
generated.  
• Areas outside of the allowable ambient  
operating temperature range  
(page 47).  
• On a motor vehicle, a boat, or other  
areas subject to strong vibration.  
(This camera is not designed for use on  
a vehicle.)  
• Install the camera on a ceiling  
(concrete, etc.) at a location that is  
sufficiently strong to support it.  
• Install the camera body on the  
foundation section of the building or  
sections having sufficient bearing  
strength.  
• When installing the camera on a ceiling  
of insufficient strength, reinforce the  
ceiling.  
This camera is for installation under  
eaves.  
When not in use, always remove the  
unit.  
• Do not install it in areas exposed to  
direct sunlight or rain.  
About White Balance  
Never install or use the camera in the  
following locations.  
White balance may not be correctly  
obtained in the following instances:  
• When capturing subjects having  
extremely little white or subjects close  
to a single color.  
• Near a swimming pool or other areas  
where chemicals are used.  
• Food preparation areas and other  
locations where there are large  
amounts of steam vapor and oil, in  
flammable atmospheres, other special  
environments.  
• When capturing images outdoors at  
dawn or dusk or in low illumination.  
• When capturing images having  
extremely different color temperatures  
(e.g. in color lighting).  
• Areas where radiation, X-rays, strong  
electric waves, or magnetism is  
generated.

About Static Electricity Removal  
Screws should be ordered separately.  
The camera does not come with screws.  
Choose screws in accordance with the  
materials and structure of the installation  
location.  
Before installing the camera, touch a metal  
case or other metallic parts with your hand  
to remove static electricity from your body.  
Do not install in areas subjected to high  
amounts of humidity or dust.  
Electrical Wave Interference  
Doing so may cause internal components  
to damage more easily or malfunction.  
The image may fluctuate near TV or radio  
transmission antennas, or near strong  
electric or magnetic fields (e.g. motors or  
transformers). In this case, setup a special-  
ized thin conduit and pass the cable  
through it.  
Do not wire cables near power lines.  
Configure the power supply to the  
camera so that it can be turned on and  
off.  
Power Supply by PoE  
The camera does not have a power switch,  
so configure the power supply to the  
camera so that it can be turned on and off.  
Use a PoE-compatible (IEEE802.3af-  
compliant) hub or power supply unit.  
Network Connection  
Pay attention to the following points when  
using the camera's network cable to  
connect to a network.  
• Wire and install the camera so that the  
network will not be influenced by  
lightning surges, etc.  
• Pan and tilt cannot be used in combina-  
tion with this camera.  
Tightening the Screws  
Screws should be tightened sufficiently in  
accordance with the materials and  
structure of the installation location. After  
tightening the screws, visually inspect them  
to make sure there is no unevenness and  
that each screw is tight.

Before Starting Installation  
The following procedures are for installing the camera on walls and ceilings.  
Important  
• The type of screws for the installation depend on the material at the location in which  
you will install the bracket (included). However, do not use wood screws or nails.  
Metal material: Use M6 or M5 bolts and nuts for mounting.  
Concrete wall: Use M6 or M5 anchor bolts for mounting.  
(Recommended tightening torque  
M4 : 0.8 N·m {8 kgf·cm}  
M5 : 1.5 N·m {15 kgf·cm}  
M6 : 2.5 N·m {25 kgf·cm})  
• Be sure that the arrow on the installation bracket is pointing upwards.  
• A pull-out force in excess of 294 N {30 kgf} is required for each screw used in the  
installation.  
• Use sufficient reinforcement for installations on ceilings that are made of gypsum board  
and are weak.  
Fixing the bracket (accessory)  
• Use the bracket to install the camera on a wall or ceiling that is provided with a hole for  
passing the cable through or on exposed piping.  
• Screws for fixing the bracket to a wall or ceiling are not provided. Choose screws in  
accordance with the materials and structure of the installation location.  
• Screws for fixing the camera to the bracket are provided with the camera.

Important  
• When wiring the cable by exposed wiring, be  
sure to use a sleeve to prevent the cable  
from being exposed to the direct sunlight.  
• Install the camera so that the cable is at the  
bottom side of the camera. Draw out the  
cable to the side of the mounting fixture, set it  
facing down, and then wire it facing up.  
Bottom side  
• When installing the camera on a wall, install  
it so that the water drain groove is facing  
down.  
Also, do not block the water drain groove.  
Blocking the water drain groove will prevent  
the dehumidifying element at the rear of the  
camera from functioning. Water that builds  
up inside the mounting fixture also blocks the  
dehumidifying element and this will cause  
malfunction.

Heater Unit  
When the heater unit (sold separately) is used, the camera can be used outdoors in low-  
temperature environments down to -30ºC (-22ºF). The heater automatically turns on when  
the temperature inside the camera falls below about 10ºC (50ºF), and turns off when the  
temperature inside rises. The condensation fan alleviates the problem of clouding  
(condensation) caused by temperature change in the camera dome caused. Note, however,  
that significant condensation caused by sudden temperature change cannot be completely  
alleviated.  
Important  
• The camera image may be influenced when the heater unit is turned on and off.  
• Before installing and removing the heater unit, be sure to turn off the camera. The heater  
unit is hot while it is turned on. Disconnect the connector from the camera, and wait for  
the heater to cool down before removing it.  
• When the heater unit is installed and use is started in environments of -10ºC (14ºF) or  
below, normal images may not be obtained immediately after the camera is started up.  
In this case, wait for the camera to warm up (about 2 hours or more) before turning the  
power on again.  
• Use 24 V AC or POE to deliver power to a heater unit.
