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 exam-
ple, 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 relation-
ship between the periodic movements of the
camera and the timing that the image sensor
reads images. This is not a problem with the
camera. To reduce the possibility of this phe-
nomenon occurring, install the camera in a
secure location.
We shall not be liable for content
compensation, losses of recorded or
edited content and any direct or indirect
consequent damages caused by failure to
record or edit due to faults with this unit or

provisions apply after unit is reparied.
About the CMOS image sensor
• When continuously shooting a bright light
source such as a spotlight, the color filter
of the CMOS image sensor may become
deteriorated and this may cause discolor-
ation. Even when changing the fixed
shooting direction after continuously
shooting a spotlight for a certain period,
the discoloration may remain.
• When shooting fast-moving subjects or
objects crossing the shooting area may
look to be bending askew.
Cleaning this product body
Be sure to turn off the power before cleaning.
Failure to observe this may cause injury. Do not
use benzine, thinner, alcohol, or any other
types of solvents or detergents. Otherwise, it
may cause discoloration. When using a chemi-
cal cloth for cleaning, read the caution provid-
ed with the chemical cloth product.
Do not loozen or remove screws unless
instructed to do so in the product documenta-
tion.
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.
Cleaning of the dome cover
Use lens cleaning paper (used to clean camera
or spectacles lenses) to remove any dirt on the
dome cover.
The mark of light-shielding parts left inside the
dome or dirt on the dorm cover may influence
the reflection of infrared rays. Therefore, like-
wise remove those marks and dirt using clean-
ing paper.

Precautions for installation

14
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 tightening excessively.
• When a screw is tightened, make the
screw at a right angle to the surface. After
tightening the screws or bolts, perform
checks to ensure that the tightening is
sufficient enough so that there is no
movement or looseness.
About reflection of light from outside or IR
light
Depending on the incident angle of high inten-
sity light source such as sunlight or lighting,
images of non-existing objects (reflected light)
or reflections of surroundings on the camera
lens (ghost) may sometimes appear on the
screen. Especially in the case of LED light,
these phenomena may be seen remarkably.
In the case of using the IR light, installation of a
camera near a wall may cause reflection of
infrared rays resulting in a part of the screen or
the entire screen turning whitish. Therefore,
consider the installation place carefully.
*Refer to our website (https://security.
panasonic.com/support/info/ <Control
No.: C0109>) for image examples and
measures to take.
Protection from lightning
When cables are used outdoors, there is a
chance that they may be affected by lightning.
In such a case, install a lightning arrestor close
to the camera, and make the length of the net-
work cable between the camera and lightning
arrestor as short as possible to prevent the
camera from being damaged by lightning.

AINITIAL SET button (Initializing / NTSC ⇔PAL switch button)
Follow the steps below to initialize the network camera.
⑴Turn off the power of the camera.
When using a PoE hub, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the camera. When using an
external power supply, disconnect the power cord plug (accessory) from the power supply
terminal (12 V DC).
⑵Turn on the power of the camera while pressing the INITIAL SET button, and make sure to
release the button after approximately 15 seconds. In about 2 minutes later, the camera will
start up and the settings including the network settings will be initialized. Retry if the camera
does not start up normally.
IMPORTANT:
⿟When the camera is initialized, the settings including the network settings will be initial-
ized. Before initializing the settings, it is recommended to write down the settings in
advance.
⿟Do not turn off the power of the camera during the process of initialization. Otherwise, it may
fail to initialize and may cause malfunction.
⿟When the INITIAL SET button is pressed (less than 1 second) to switch the output signal of the
MONITOR OUT terminal, the MONITOR OUT terminal can be switched for the NTSC monitor ⇔
PAL monitor.
