About the automatic status detection
function
When this product malfunctions due to exoge-
nous noise, etc. for 30 seconds or more, the
product will automatically reset and will return to
normal state. When the product is reset, initializa-
tion will be carried out as when the power of the
product is turned on. When the product repeat-
edly resets, exogenous noise level around the
product may be high and that may cause mal-
function. Contact your dealer for instructions.
Product disposal/transfer
Data saved on this product or a storage device
used with this product may lead to personal
information leakage.
When it is necessary to dispose or give this
product to someone, even when for repair, make
sure that there is no data on this product.
Cleaning this product body
Be sure to turn off the power before cleaning.
Failure to observe this may cause injury. Do not
use strong abrasive detergent when cleaning
this product. Otherwise, it may cause discolor-
ation. When using a chemical cloth for clean-
ing, read the caution provided with the chemi-
cal cloth product.
Cleaning the lens
Use a lens cleaning paper (used to clean cam-
era lenses or lenses of spectacles). When using
solvent, use an alcohols solvent and do not use
a thinner or a glass cleaner.
Transmission interval
Image transmission interval may become slow
depending on the network environment, PC
performance, shooting subject, access num-
ber, etc.
Periodically images on the screen appear
to be distorted
When the camera is installed in a location where
it is subject to small vibrations (for example, when
it is installed near devices that vibrate), images
may appear distorted and stretched lengthways.
This phenomenon is a characteristic of image
pickup devices that use CMOS sensors and is
caused by the relationship between the periodic
movements of the camera and the timing that the
image sensor reads images. This is not a prob-
lem with the camera. To reduce the possibility of
this phenomenon occurring, install the camera in
a secure location.

(Ultra High Speed-I) compliant card.
Discoloration on the color filter of the
MOS image sensor
• When continuously shooting a bright light
source such as a spotlight, the color filter
of the MOS image sensor may have deteri-
orated and it may cause discoloration.
Even when changing the fixed shooting
direction after continuously shooting a
spotlight for a certain period, the discolor-
ation may remain.
• When shooting fast-moving subjects or per-
forming panning/tilting operations, objects
crossing the shooting area may look to be
bending askew.
