Preface

Network Interface Unit WJ-NT304 is designed to capture images from analog cameras and compress the images in JPEG or MPEG-4 files. By connecting to a network (LAN) or the Internet, images and audio from the camera can be monitored on a PC via a network.*

*1 It is necessary to configure the network settings of the PC and its network environment to monitor images and audio from

the camera on the PC. It is also necessary that a web browser is installed on the PC.

Features

• Video input signals from up to 4 analog cameras can be converted to stream files (JPEG or MPEG-4 format), and a system can be established in which MPEG-4 images can be monitored while recording JPEG images.

• Interactive communication with audio (transceiver type) is available.

• Transceiver type communication is established by transmitting and receiving audio when a user controls the receiver button and transmission button interchangeably. Transmitting and receiving audio are unavailable at the same time.

• Panning/tilting platforms and lenses of combination cameras (option) can be controlled with coaxial communication.

• The FTP backup function and recording of each log on an optional SD memory card are available using the featured SD memory card.*

*2 Compatible SD memory card is as follows.

(SDHC memory card is not supported.) SD memory card manufactured by Panasonic (64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2GB)

Precautions

• Do not block the ventilation opening or slots on the cover.

To prevent the apparatus from overheating, place it at least 5 cm {2 inches} away from the wall.

• Do not drop metallic parts through slots.

This could permanently damage the apparatus. Turn the power off immediately and contact qualified service personnel for service.

• Do not attempt to disassemble the apparatus.

To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact qualified service personnel for maintenance.

• Do not expose the apparatus to water or moisture. Do not try to operate it in wet areas.

Take immediate action if the apparatus gets wet. Turn the power off and refer servicing to qualified service personnel. Moisture can damage the apparatus and also cause electric shocks.

• Built-in backup battery

Before the first use, charge the built-in backup battery (lithium battery) by turning on the power for 48 hours or more. If it is not charged enough, in a case where the power goes down, the internal clock may keep bad time or the operative condition may be different to that before the electric power failure. The built-in battery life is approximately 5 years as an indication of replacement. (This is just an indication of replacement. We are not providing any guarantee of the built-in battery lifetime. Replacement cost of the built-in battery is not covered by the warranty even if it needs to be done within the warranty period.) Ask the shop where you purchased the unit when replacement of the battery is required.

Use this product for indoor use only.

Do not expose this product to direct sunlight for hours and do not install the product near a heater or an air conditioner. Otherwise, it may cause deformation, discoloration and malfunction. Keep this product away from water.

To continue using with stable performance

• Parts of this product may deteriorate and it may shorten the lifetime of this product when using in locations subject to high temperatures and high humidity. Do not expose the product to direct heat such as from a heater.

• Use this product at temperature within 5 °C to 35 °C {41 °F to 95 °F} and humidity below 90%. (When using this product without turning the power off) The input power source for this apparatus is 120 V AC, 50 Hz/60 Hz.

Use only the supplied power cord or AC adapter.

Use the power cord that is suited to your locality.

Handle the appliance with care.

Do not strike or shake, as this may damage the product. Failure to observe this may cause trouble.

About the PC monitor

When displaying the same image on the PC monitor for a long time, the PC monitor may be damaged. It is recommended to use a screen-saver.

When an error is detected, the unit will restart automatically.

This unit will restart when detecting an error caused by any reason. The unit will be inoperable for around 2 seconds after the restart just as when the power is turned on.

About SD memory card

• Before inserting a SD memory card into the SD memory card slot, turn the power of the unit off. Otherwise, it may cause malfunction or damage data recorded on the SD memory card. Refer to page 16 for descriptions of how to insert/ remove a SD memory card.

• When using an unformatted SD memory card, format it using this unit. Recorded data on the SD memory card will be deleted when formatted. If using an unformatted SD memory card or using a SD card formatted with other device, the unit may not work properly or performance deterioration may be caused. Refer to the Network Setup Instructions (PDF) for descriptions of how to register users.

• Use Panasonic’s SD memory card. Otherwise, the unit may not work properly or performance deterioration may be caused.

About the self-diagnosis function

When the unit malfunctions due to exogenous noise, etc. for 30 seconds or more, the unit will automatically reset and will return to normal state. When the unit is reset, initialization will be carried out as when the power of the unit is turned on. When the unit repeatedly resets, exogenous noise level around the unit may be high and that may cause malfunction. Contact your dealer for instructions.

Cleaning

Turn the power off when cleaning the unit. Otherwise it may cause injuries. Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the apparatus body. Use a dry cloth to clean the apparatus when it is dirty. When the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent and wipe gently.
