Doorphone image quality
The following phenomena may occur. They are not malfunctions.
RIf strong light such as sunlight shines into the camera lens, uneven colouring from reflected light, or
white lines or circles may appear in images.
RImages may appear distorted because of the characteristics of the camera lens.
RWhen there is poor light in the area around the doorphone or at night:
– Areas lit with external lights or white objects may appear greenish.
–Even when the doorphone’s LED lights are lit, because the light from the LED lights cannot illuminate
the edges of the visible area (the areas directly next to the doorphone), faces of people may not be
identifiable even when they are close to the doorphone.
(We recommend installing extra lights in the area around the doorphone.)
