Important Notices:
The motion detection should meet the following con-
ditions.
1) The picture size on the screen should be larger
than 1/48 of the actual picture size.
2) The contrast ratio between the object and the
background picture should be more than 5 % at
the maximum detection level.
3) The time that takes the object to move from one
end of the screen to the other should be more
than 0.1 second.
Also under the following conditions, mask or adjust
the detection level to prevent malfunction.
1) When leaves, curtains, etc. are swayed by the
wind.
2) When a picture has a high noise content due to
low light conditions.
3) When the object is illuminated by lighting equip-
ment that constantly turns on and off.
The alarm signal will take approx. 0.2 seconds to
reach the alarm terminal of the VCR after the camera
detects the object.
Because the alarm signal is multiplexed on the
video signal, it may be mistakenly interpreted by
other video equipment as a time code signal.
Therefore, when this camera is not used in a
Panasonic Intelligent CCTV System, select OFF to
prevent the above from occurring.
