PoE device. (When using both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for power supply, dis-
connect both the connections.)
To keep on using with stable performance
Do not use this camera in hot and humid conditions for a long time. Failure to observe this causes
component degradation resulting in life shortening of this product.
Do not expose this camera to direct heat sources such as a heater.
Do not touch the lens cover with your bare hands.
A dirty lens cover causes deterioration of picture quality.
Handle this camera with care.
Do not drop this camera, nor apply shock or vibration to this camera. Failure to observe this may
cause trouble.
About the PC monitor
Displaying the same image on a monitor for a long time may damage the monitor. It is recommend-
ed to use a screen-saver.
When an error is detected, this product will restart automatically.
This product will be inoperable for around 2 minutes after the restart just as when the power is turned on.
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 discoloration. When
using a chemical cloth for cleaning, read the caution provided with the chemical cloth product.
When the dirt is hard to remove, use a damp cloth and wipe the dirty areas. Then, wipe with a dry
cloth to remove any moisture.
Transmission interval
Image transmission interval may become slow depending on the network environment,
PC performance, shooting subject, access number, etc.
About SD memory card
When using an unformatted SD memory card, format it using this camera. Recorded data on the
SD memory card will be deleted when formatted. If an unformatted SD memory card or an SD
memory card formatted with other devices is used, this product may not work properly or perfor-
mance deterioration may be caused. Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the
CD-ROM) for how to format a SD memory card.
When some SD memory cards are used with this product, the product may not work properly or
performance deterioration may be caused. Use the SD memory cards recommended.
Code label
The code labels (accessory) are required at inquiry for trouble. Use caution not to lose these labels.
It is recommended to paste one of the labels onto the CD-ROM case.
About 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 deteriorated 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 performing panning/tilting operations, objects crossing
the shooting area may look to be bending askew.

Flickering
Due to the influence of lighting, flickering may sometimes happen. In this case, select “Indoor
scene” for “Light control mode”. Select “Indoor scene(50Hz)” or “Indoor scene(60Hz)” in accor-
dance with the power supply frequency in your locality. Refer to the Operating Instructions (included
in the CD-ROM) for further information about the setting.
Under extremely strong lighting, flickering may happen even when “Indoor scene” is selected for
“Light control mode”. When the brightness (illuminance) level on the screen is set to a relatively low
level with the [Brightness] buttons, flickering may frequently happen. In such cases, either of the fol-
lowing can reduce flickering.
Moderate the illumination intensities of objects by changing the camera direction.
Set the brightness (illuminance) level on the screen to a brighter level with the [Brightness] buttons.
White-out on images caused by the effect of light control mode
When “Indoor scene” is selected for “Light control mode”, the tone of the brighter parts on the
screen may be deteriorated than the case when “ELC” is selected.
Color blurring on detailed drawing patterns
When there are detailed drawing patterns on images, color blurring may happen over these parts.
Consumable parts
The following are consumables: Replace them in accordance with their lives. Their lives vary
depending on use environment and conditions. Lifetime is just an indication when using the camera
at +20 °C {68 °F}.
Panning motor, tilting motor, flat cable for tilting: Approx. 3.7 million operations.
Lens and pan/tilt head
If a lens and pan/tilt head are not performed for a long period of time, the grease coating inside
these parts may become sticky. That may obstruct the parts from moving. To prevent this, move
the lens or pan/tilt head periodically.
Panasonic assumes no responsibility for injuries or property damage resulting from
failures arising out of improper installation or operation inconsistent with this
documentation.
Installation area for this product

Before installation
When this camera is mounted on a wooden ceiling or a wall, use the wood screws (accessory,
Screw B). Screws to be used for other materials are not provided. Prepare the screws according
to the material, structure, strength and other factors of the mounting area and the total weight of
objects to be mounted.
Ensure that the mounting surface, anchor and screws are sufficiently strong.

device equipped with the ON-OFF switch for servicing.
About the network connection
When connecting to a network using the network cable of this product, observe the following.
When wiring for the network, design and engineer not to be affected by thunder.
Screw tightening
The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according to the
material and strength of the installation area.
Do not use an impact driver. Use of an impact driver may damage the screws or cause tighten-
ing excessively.
When a screw is tightened, make the screw at a right angle to the surface. After tightening the
screws or bolts, perform visual check to ensure tightening is enough and there is no backlash.
Procure fixing screws separately.
The screws that secure this product are not supplied. Prepare them according to the material and
strength of the area where the product is to be installed.
Required pull-out capacity of a single screw/bolt is 294 N {66.09 lbf} or more.
Fall prevention measures
When the external safety wire is connected, select a connection point resulting in that nothing will
hit people after the stand is damaged.
Do not remove or loosen the internal camera screws.
Do not loosen the internal camera screws. Otherwise, water exposure may cause damage or mal-
function of camera, or camera dropping may result in injury.
Radio disturbance
When this product is used near TV/radio antenna, strong electric field or magnetic field (near a
motor, a transformer or a power line), images may be distorted and noise sound may be produced.
PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Use a PoE hub/device that is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard.
Router
When connecting this product to the Internet, use a broadband router with the port forwarding
function (NAT, IP masquerade). Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for fur-
ther information about the port forwarding function.
