Main Features
Camera Image Monitoring
Simply connect the BL-WV10A to your Panasonic home network cameras (sold separately) and to your TV, and you'll be able to view camera images conveniently on your TV.
Wireless cameras such as the BL-C30A can be connected as well, meaning you won't have to worry about running cables from the BL-WV10A to each camera.
Pan/Tilt Feature
Aim the camera wherever you want by simply pressing the navigator keys on the included remote control.
Sensor Alert Feature
The camera's built-in sensor detects motion by sensing temperature changes caused naturally by people or animals moving within the sensor's range. When the sensor detects motion, the BL-WV10A can alert you by sounding its built-in buzzer and by displaying the image from the camera that has detected motion.
This feature is not available with HCM series cameras.
Camera Image Recording
Simply insert an optional SD memory card and you'll be able to record movies and pictures of your camera images. Later you can use the remote control to play back movies and view pictures on your TV that were recorded by the BL-WV10A.
Privacy Mode Feature
Simply press the camera's PRIVACY button to hide the camera's lens when you don't want camera images to be seen.
This feature is not available with HCM series cameras.
System Expansion
Up to 8 cameras can be connected, allowing you to keep an eye on every room with just 1 BL-WV10A.
Multi-Camera Monitoring
When multiple cameras are registered, you can view up to 4 camera images at once and switch to monitor a specific camera if necessary.

Note
If a user name and password has already been established for a camera, Quick Setup will be unable to replace that data with the user name and password for the BL-WV10A. To register the camera as a local camera, reset the camera by pressing its FACTORY DEFAULT RESET button before connecting it.
Quick Setup can take place within 20 minutes after the camera is turned on. If the camera is not recognized, or if [Restarting camera] is displayed at the bottom of the screen for more than 2 minutes without camera registration beginning, reset the camera by pressing its FACTORY DEFAULT RESET button and reconnect the camera.
If a camera needs to be restarted during Quick Setup, camera configuration and restart will take about 2 minutes.
During Quick Setup, the wireless indicator will light in green.
Once registration is complete, the buzzer will sound and the wireless indicator will flash green.
When camera registration is complete, [Finished] is displayed.
3. To register an additional camera, connect the Ethernet cable to the new
camera and turn the camera on.
When registration is complete, the buzzer will sound and the wireless indicator will flash once for each of the cameras registered.

2. Set the mode switch on the back of the BL-WV10A to [NORMAL] and turn it
on.
After the startup screen, the camera monitoring screen will appear.
Note
As the cameras start up, those registered in camera list 1 will display a monitoring image. If multiple cameras were registered, confirm that monitoring images for all of the cameras registered in the multi-camera screen (see page 64) are displayed.
If the BL-WV10A does not receive date and time information from any of the connected cameras, the [Date and Time] screen will appear. Select the current date and time using the navigator keys on the remote control, and press [ENTER] when finished.
If [DST] is turned on, the BL-WV10A will automatically adjust its clock for Daylight Saving Time. The clock will move forward 1 hour at 2:00 AM on the first Sunday in April, and will move back 1 hour at 3:00 AM on the last Sunday in October.
If a camera image does not appear, check the connection and then restart the camera. If the image still fails to appear, reset the camera to its default values, and re-register it using Quick Setup.
The date and time is displayed in the upper-right corner of the BL­WV10A’s menu. If the date and time setting is not correct, set the correct date and time from the [Date and Time] screen on the [Settings] screen (see page 96).
