Features

This Color CCTV Camera is a video surveillance device that incorporates a 1/4-type {1/4"} CCD, a 30x zoom lens, preset and pan and tilt capabilities in a dome configuration.

■ Super Dynamic 33(SUPER-D 33)

SUPER-D 3 can capture clear images of subjects whose illumination is extremely different (page 28).

■ Built-in Automatic Tracking Function

A pan, tilt, and zoom-linked automatic tracking function ensures smooth auto tracking operations. A mask feature helps to reduce the chance of error by letting you mask specific parts of the image from the detection area.

■ New DSP for High Sensitivity

A new noise reduction system lowers minimum illuminance to 0.5 lux{fc} in the color mode and 0.04 lux{fc} in the black and white mode.

■ Auto Night time Switching to Black

and White Mode

The camera can be configured to switch to the black and white mode automatically under low light conditions for clear images, even at night.

■ Digital Flip

Normally, a camera needs to stop when it points straight down during a tilt operation. With digital flip, however, the camera is able to tilt from 0° to 180° in a single motion. This makes it possible to track subjects passing directly under the camera more smoothly.

Digital Flip Operation

Tilting downwards

· · · Digital flip is performed only when the system controller joystick is held downwards.

The picture is flipped when the camera is pointing straight down (at around 135°).

Tilting upwards.

■ Privacy Zone Function

The privacy zone function can mask specific areas of the scene from view.

■ Patrol Function

The patrol function can store manual camera movement routines for automatic playback. For example, you can set the camera the movements of the people to be monitored, by replaying the stored parameters complicated move-ments are done automatically.

■ Camera Position Memory

The system can be configured with up to 256 camera positions. A particular camera position can be selected and viewed by entering the applicable preset number on the system controller 10-key pad.

■ Motion Detection

The system can be configured so any motion on the monitor screen during surveillance causes output of an alarm signal. This function can be used to structure a system with a VCR that records images of nighttime intruders.

■ Internal Heating Fan

About the Auto-Tracking Function

The camera's auto tracking function operates by using image recognition. The client is responsible for understanding and applying the following warnings regarding installation and operation necessary to prevent losses due to malfunction or lack of detection as a result of unforeseeable aspects of the installation area.

• The camera's tracking function is for monitoring unknown intruders. It is not suitable for locations with large numbers of people such as intersections or retail stores. Be sure to confirm this before installing the camera.

• Be sure to set the height of the camera under the detailed settings (page 41) of the auto-tracking function.

• Install the camera in a horizontal configuration, with the dome pointed downwards.

• Install the camera securely so that it does not sway. High resolution operation may reduce performance.

• The camera cannot track well horizontally or directly below itself, so avoid this type of installation.

• Install the camera and adjust the view angle so that people do not move vertically on the screen. Vertical motion creates only small deviation on the screen and may not be detected.

• Dirt or scratches on the dome cover make it difficult to see the image which may reduce performance. Periodically clean the dome cover.

• Rain or snow on the dome cover may reduce performance. Consider placing the camera under eaves or some kind of cover.

• Use the electronic sensitivity enhancement (page 29) if using the camera at night (approximately 10 lx).

• Use the detection area mask (page 42) to avoid detection errors caused by the motion of trees or traffic.

• Auto-tracking may start for vehicles or other nonhuman movements, however, this is not a malfunction. Adjust the view angle or use detection area masking (page 42).

• Adjust the view angle or use detection area masking (page 42) if there is strong back lighting, neon lighting or other flashing lights, or reflection on glass or the surface of a road in the image.

• To detect people, adjust the view angle so that the people are about 1/5 of the vertical height of the screen.

• Periodically replace consumable parts (page 7).

The pan, tilt and zoom functions operate in unison to track moving subjects smoothly.

Precautions

1. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera.

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

2. Handle the camera with care.

Do not misuse the camera. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. The camera could be damaged by improper handling or storage.

3. Install the camera at a location that is able to support its total weight.

Installing at a location that is not strong enough can cause the camera to fall down or tip over. Be sure to reinforce weak locations sufficiently before installing the camera.

4. Use the fall-prevention wires to reduce the risk of the camera falling down.

Do not detach the fall-prevention wire securing the camera. Otherwise the camera could fall down, causing injury to persons and damage to the camera.

5. Never aim the camera at the sun.

Whether or not the camera is in use , never aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.

6. Never aim the camera at strong light sources for an extended period of time.

A light source such as a spot light causes burn-in on the display screen. Failure to observe this may cause the image to become discolored due to deterioration of the color filter in the CCD.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity or power source ratings.

Do not use the camera in an extreme environment where high temperature or high humidity exists. Do not place the camera near heat sources such as radiators, stoves or other units that produce heat. Use the camera under conditions where temperature is between –40 °C to +50 °C {–40 °F to 122 °F} and humidity is below 90 %. The input power source is 24 V AC 60 Hz.

■ Operating precautions

■ What to do if OVER HEAT appears on the display.

This message indicates that the inside of the camera has become extremely hot. Immediately turn off the camera and contact your retailer.

■ What to do if WARM UP-PLEASE WAIT.** appears

on the display.

This message indicates that the inside of the camera is cold. Please wait for a short time until the heating fan warms up the inside of the camera. The countdown shown as the numbers in “**” in quotes is a guideline of the time required. When the value reaches “0” the inside of the camera is warm and the on-screen display disappears. The camera is then reset and operation is normal.

■ Note the following to ensure long-term troublefree operation

Long operation under high temperatures and high humidity can cause components to deteriorate and shorten camera life. Make sure the camera is installed in a location where it is not directly exposed to heat from a radiator, heater, etc.

■ About the Camera Cleaning Function

Prolonged use can lead to noise on the monitor and divergence of preset positions. If such conditions persist even after you perform camera cleaning (page 40), use the special setup menu to execute the “REFRESH” operation (page 48).

■ Do not allow anything to forcefully hit the dome cover

Anything hitting the dome cover may damage the camera or cause leaks.

■ CCD color filter burn-in

Intense light concentrated on one spot for a long period can cause deterioration of the CCD internal color filters, and discoloration of the affected part. Even if the camera position is changed from a fixed position, the discoloration at the previous location of the concentrated light will remain on the screen.

■ Do not point the camera at a strong light source.

Intense light such as that produced by a spotlight concentrated on one part of the screen can cause blooming (rainbow around the strong light) or smearing (vertical stripes above and below the strong light).

Bright Subject

Smearing

Blooming

■ Pictures directly below the camera

A circular object appears in the center of the picture, it is caused by the shape of the dome cover and is not a malfunction.

■ Do not aim the camera at the same object for a long time.

Burn-in of an image may be caused on the fluorescent screen of CRT.

■ Handle the camera carefully.

Do not drop the camera, or subject it to strong impact or vibration. Such conditions create the risk of malfunction.

■ Consumables

Parts having contacts such as the lens-drive motors, cooling fan motor and slip-rings inside the camera are subject to wear with time. Contact the nearest service dealer about replacement and maintenance of such parts.

■ Cleaning the camera

Turn off the camera and wipe it with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, wipe it off gently with a soft cloth moistened with a weak solution of water and a neutral kitchen detergent. Wring all excess liquid from the cloth before wiping the camera. Next, wipe off all remaining solution with a soft, dry cloth. Contact a qualified service person before cleaning the lenses. (Lenses do not move during cleaning.) A dirty dome cover or lens causes deterioration of picture quality. Use lens cleaning paper (like the type available for cleaning eyeglasses or a camera lens) to clean the lens. The dome cover is particularly susceptible to damage. Gently wipe it with a soft cloth.

■ Downloading (saving) or uploading (recovering) camera setting information

Camera setting information that can be downloaded to the system controller etc, includes existing preset position settings and menu settings. However, the following items are not included.

• Patrol function (page 37)

• Area title function (page 39)

• Blemish compensation pattern (page 47)

• RS485 settings (page 20)

• Password settings (page 50) Be sure the camera is not moving and aimed at something that moves very little (like a wall) before downloading camera preset data to the system controller etc. or uploading downloaded data to the camera. Uploading of WV-CW974 preset data to other models (e.g. WV-CW864, WV-CW864A) may cause an error and failure of the uploading process.

■ Self-diagnosing Function

If abnormal operation due to external noise or some other reason continues for more than 30 seconds, the camera will automatically reset itself and restore normal operation. Reset operation the same initialization routine that is performed when the camera is turned on. If the reset is required too often, it could mean that the camera is installed in a location where there is a large amount of external noise. This can cause malfunction of the camera, so you should contact a qualified service person or system installer as soon as possible.

■ Combining devices

There is a limit to the number of devices that can be put together in one configuration. Check the specifications and outer dimensions before hooking up the devices. For more information, see the “Panasonic CCTV System Catalogue” or consult your retailer.

■ Installation precautions

■ Be sure to perform installation work in accor-

dance with proper technical standards for electric installation.

■ Camera Installation Location

Discuss the installation location for the camera with your retailer, and select a wall, ceiling or other location that is strong enough to support the installation.

■ About ceiling mounts and brackets

Bolts for mounting the ceiling mount Attachment Pipe to a ceiling or wall are not provided. You need to purchase them separately in accordance with the materials and strength of the place you are installing the camera.

• Check the installation surface, and the anchors and bolts to be used for sufficient strength.

• Gypsum board and wood surfaces tend to be weak, and should not be used as an installation surface. If use of such a surface for installation is unavoidable, be sure to take adequate measures to reinforce the surface.

■ Tightening the Screws

• Screws should be tightened sufficiently in accordance with the materials and structure of the installation location.

• Do not use an impact driver to drive screws. Doing so can damage the screws.

• Drive the screws as straight as possible. After tightening the screws, visually inspect them to make sure there is no unevenness and that each screw is tight.

■ This camera is designed for use in a hanging configuration only. Using it in an upright or inclined configuration can cause malfunction and shorten the life of the camera.

■ Install the camera in a horizontal configuration, with the dome pointed downwards.

■ Be sure to remove this apparatus if it is not in use.

■ Never install or use the camera in the following

locations.

• Near a swimming pool or other areas where chemicals are used

• Food preparation areas and other locations where there are large amounts of steam vapor and oil, in flammable atmospheres, other special environments

• Areas where radiation, X-rays, strong electric waves, or magnetism is generated

• At sea, in coastal areas, or in areas where corrosive gas is being generated

• Areas outside of the allowable ambient operating temperature range (-40 °C to +50 °C {-40 °F to 122 °F})

-8-

• In a motor vehicle, on a boat, or other areas subject to strong vibration (This camera is not designed for use in a vehicle.)

• Near an air conditioner outlet or any areas subject to sudden changes in temperature. (Such conditions can cause clouding and condensation formation on the dome cover.)

■ Remove the protective sheet from the dome cover after the installation work is complete.

■ Wiring power to the camera

The camera does not have a power switch. During the electrical work, configure the power supply to the camera so it can be turned on and off.

■ Noise interference considerations

When using a power line that is greater than 120 V AC and wiring that is longer than 1 meter, wiring should be routed using a separate metal conduit. (The metal conduit must be earth grounded.)

Important:

• Before setting up the camera for a configuration

where the camera's RS485 data port is used for camera control (pan, tilt, etc.) by the system controller, the camera's DIP switches must be configured to specify the unit number and communication parameters. (page 13) If DIP switch setting is not performed, the system controller control will not be possible and camera setup will have to be performed again. Be sure to check the DIP switch settings before setting up the camera.

Note: If you need to connect a ground, be sure to do it

before you connect the main power. Also, when removing the ground, be sure to disconnect the main power.

■ Beware of high humidity.

If the camera is installed when humidity is very high, moisture may collect in the camera and cause the dome to become foggy. If the dome becomes foggy, remove it when the humidity is low and eliminate the moisture inside the camera, and then replace the dome. (page 6, 7)

■ About the heater

The camera comes with a built-in heater so it can be used in cold regions. The heater automatically turns on when the internal temperature goes below 10 °C {50 °F}. However, snow and frost that collect on the dome cover may not melt if the temperature falls below -40 °C {-40 °F}. Care needs to be taken regarding the ambient and internal temperature when using the camera in cold regions.

■ About effects on image quality

The camera does not have a wiper. If the camera is installed in the following conditions image quality may deteriorate or the image may be invisible.

(1) In the rain

The picture may be hard to see if the wind blows rain onto the dome cover while it is raining.

(2) In the snow

When it snows, snow may collect on the dome cover and block some of the picture. (The amount of snow that collects on the dome cover depends on the quality and amount of the snow.)

(3) Effects of dust and automobile exhaust

Airborne dust and automobile exhaust, from the location where the camera is installed, may cause dirt to build up on the dome cover and reduce the quality of the picture.

■ Important hints to help with the installation

• A self-cleaning function is activated (PAN/TILT/ ZOOM/FOCUS) when the camera is turned on.

• There is a limit to the number of devices that can be put together in one configuration. Check the ratings and outer dimensions before hooking up the devices.

Ensuring Trouble-free Operation

• This camera uses a “slip ring” for transmission of electrical power and signals. A dirty slip ring can cause deterioration of picture quality during panning and generation of noise. In order to ensure trouble-free camera operation, make sure that the cleaning function (page 40) is turned on.

• If cleaning the slip ring does not eliminate poor picture quality and noise, it could mean that the slip ring has reached the end of its service life. Contact a qualified service person or system installer to have it replaced.

● Adjusting Camera Position When Changing Cameras (PAN OFFSET SET)

The system controller etc. has a function for downloading (saving) and uploading (recovering) setting information for the camera. This function allows you to upload (recover) original setting information that has been downloaded (saved) before some unforeseen damage or malfunction causes setting information in the camera to be lost. However, there may be some slight differences in images from those uploaded (recovered) when the camera is changed. The "PAN OFFSET SET" function is for adjusting these differences.

1. Align the cursor with "PAN OFFSET SET" with the ← or → arrow, and press the CAM (SET) button to set the offset value. Set the offset value to 0.0, or in a range of -10 to +10. All preset positions for the camera's position are adjusted according to the offset value.

Important: Data is not compatible with existing cameras. Uploading setting information from existing cameras will damage data in the camera. If data in the camera is damaged, download camera setting information from a camera that still has the factory settings and then upload it to the camera with the damaged data.

● Preset ID Setting (PRESET ID)

The preset ID is a series of alphanumeric characters that indicate the location of the camera. This item can be used to turn display of the preset ID on the monitor screen on or off, and to input the preset ID.

1. Move the cursor to PRESET ID, and then tilt the joystick left or right to toggle preset ID display on and off.

* The following sections numbered q to !3 explain

how to use each of the camera setup menu items.

(1) Camera ID (CAMERA ID)

See page 24 for information on the camera ID settings method. The factory default setting is OFF.

(2) Light Control (ALC/MANUAL)

1. Move the cursor to ALC/MANUAL, and then tilt the joystick left or right to toggle between ALC and MANUAL. ALC : Enables automatic lens iris adjustment in

accordance with subject brightness. Select this ALC when using SUPER-D 3. This is the factory default setting.

MANUAL: Adjust the lens iris with the IRIS button on

the system controller. Fixes the lens iris.

Note: The backlight compensation submenu associated with this menu is described separately and should be set up after installing the camera at the site and observing the actual site picture.

2. If ALC is set in step 1, press the CAM (SET) button to set SUPER-D 3.

SUPER-D 33(Super Dynamic 33)

When there is wide variation between the illumination of light and dark areas of the location being monitored, the camera adjusts the lens iris in accordance with the bright areas. This causes loss of detail in dark areas. Conversely, adjusting lens brightness for the dark areas cause brighter area to become washed out.

5. Mask the cells in the area where background lighting is bright. Masking an area will cause its brightness level to be ignored. Use the following steps to perform masking

(1) Tilt the joystick up and down, and left and right

to move the cursor to a cell you want to mask.

-28-

(2) Press the CAM (SET) button to mask the cell.

Moving the cursor to a cell that is already masked causes the blinking pattern of the cursor to alternate between horizontal stripes and white. Pressing the CAM (SET) button while the cursor is located at a masked cell cancels the masking of the cell. To cancel all masking areas, press the F3 button.

(3) After masking all of the cells you want, press the

MON (ESC) button to return to the ALC CONT menu in step 1.

6. Move the cursor to LEVEL, and then tilt the joystick left and right to adjust the picture output level (picture contrast). If you selected ON in step 3 of this procedure, best results can be obtained by setting a contrast level that is somewhat high. A contrast level that is too high, however, may increase the tendency of afterimages and noise.

Note: If operation of the system controller's IRIS (OPEN, CLOSE) button during operation is done after the menu is closed, the LEVEL on the CAMERA menu is reflected and stored for these settings. However, if the camera is in a preset position, it is reflected as a parameter of the preset position. To return to the initial factory default level, execute the system controller's iris reset.

(3) Shutter Speed (SHUTTER)

1. Move the cursor to SHUTTER, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a shutter speed setting. Tilting the joystick cycles through the shutter speed settings display in the sequence shown below. (unit: sec)

When SUPER-D 33is turned off

OFF ↔ AUTO ↔ 1/100 ↔ 1/250 ↔ 1/500 ↔ 1/1000 1/10000 ↔ 1/4000 ↔ 1/2000

When SUPER-D 33is turned on

OFF ↔ AUTO

AUTO: This setting, by moving the shutter

automatically when necessary, provides a clearer picture of extremely bright objects outdoors, etc. This is the factory default setting.

OFF : Fixed at 1/60 seconds.

Notes:

• When AUTO is selected for the shutter setting, fluorescent lighting may cause flickering of the picture. If this happens, select OFF or 1/100 for the shutter speed setting.

• AUTO is disabled when MANUAL is selected for light control (ALC/MANUAL) and FIX is selected for electronic sensitivity enhancement (SENS UP).

(4) Gain Control (AGC)

1. Move the cursor to AGC, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a gain control setting.

ON (LOW) : Low gain ON (MID) : Medium gain. This is the factory default

setting.

ON (HIGH) : High gain OFF : Fixed gain

Note: When AGC is turned on, the noise reduction

function automatically activates under low illumination to reduce digital noise. This also, however, can cause afterimages to be generated by moving objects, and by panning and tilting the camera. For more information, see the DNR setting (page 31).

(5) Electronic Sensitivity Enhancement (SENS UP)

1. Move the cursor to SENS UP, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select an electronic sensitivity enhancement setting. The electronic sensitivity enhancement setting can be changed only when OFF or AUTO is selected for the shutter speed (SHUTTER) setting. Tilting the joystick cycles through the settings display in the sequence shown below. The factory default setting is OFF.

When SUPER-D 33is turned off

OFF ↔ X2 AUTO ↔ X4 AUTO ↔ X6 AUTO ↔ X10 AUTO ↔ X16 AUTO

When SUPER-D 33is turned on

OFF ↔ X2 AUTO ↔ X4 AUTO ↔ X6 AUTO X32 AUTO ↔ X16 AUTO ↔ X10 AUTO

Notes:

• The following are the differences between AUTO and FIX. AUTO: Selecting X32 AUTO, for example,

automatically increases sensitivity, up to a maximum of 32 times.

FIX :Selecting X32 FIX, for example,

increases sensitivity 32 times. The FIX settings cannot be selected when the shutter speed (SHUTTER) setting is 1/100.

• SENS UP is set to 2x automatically if it is set higher than 2x when auto tracking starts.

Caution: Turning on SENS UP can cause digital noise and white spots (blemish) to appear in the picture.

(6) Synchronization (SYNC)

This camera supports the following three sync modes, which are listed in priority sequence from highest priority to lowest.

(1) Multiplexed vertical drive (VD2) (2) Internal sync (INT)

(3) Line-lock (LL) Input of a multiplexed vertical driver (VD2) signal automatically switches to VD2 sync, regardless of the camera's current sync mode (SYNC). In this case, the camera setting menu shows EXT (VD2) for the SYNC setting, which cannot be changed to internal sync (INT) or line-lock (LL). The following procedures explain how to select internal sync (INT) and line-lock (LL), and how to perform phase adjustment when line-lock (LL) is selected.

1. Move the cursor to SYNC, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select the sync mode.

INT :Internal sync. This is the factory default setting. LL : Line-lock (Cannot be used in areas with 50 Hz

power.) Selecting LL and pressing the CAM (SET) button will display the SYNC setting menu, which can be used for configuring detailed settings. (This page)

● Adjusting the Phase for Line-lock Synchronization

Connect the video output signal of the camera being adjusted and the reference video output signal to a two-input oscilloscope. Set the oscilloscope to the vertical rate, and then expand the vertical sync portion on the oscilloscope.

1. Move the cursor to COARSE, and then tilt the joystick left or right to align the coarse adjustment of the vertical phases of the camera being adjusted with that of the reference camera. Coarse adjustment be performed across 16 steps (1 through 16). Adjusting past step 16 returns to step 1.

Notes:

• To reset COARSE and FINE to the preset values, press the F3 button. For WV-RM70, press the right and left switches simultaneously. COARSE is preset to zero-crossing of the AC line phase.

• If the AC line phase contains spike noise, etc., the vertical phase of the video output signal may be disturbed.

(7) White Balance (WHITE BAL)

1. Move the cursor to WHITE BAL, and then tilt the joystick left or right to select a white balance mode.

(1) Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW1/ATW2)

In this mode, the camera continually monitors the color temperature of the light source and automatically adjusts white balance. The following are the approximate supported color temperature ranges in this mode. ATW1: 2,700 K to 6,000 K. This is the factory

default setting.

ATW2: 2,000 K to 6,000 K (Mode recommended

for sodium lighting) Proper white balance may not be possible under the following conditions. In such cases, use the AWC while balance mode.

• When the subject contains mostly dark colors

• When the light source is a deep blue sky or twilight

• When illumination of the subject is low

(2) Auto-Tracing White Balance Control (AWC)

In this mode, the supported color temperature range is approximately 2,000 K to 10,000 K. This mode is best in locations where the light source is constant.

(a) To select AWC, tilt the joystick left and select

AWC→PUSH SET.

(b) Press the CAM (SET) button to start white

balance adjustment. PUSH SET is highlighted on the display while white balance adjustment is being performed.

• PUSH SET becomes unhighlighted again when white balance adjustment is complete. Tilt the joystick right to display AWC.

• If white balance adjustment cannot be completed for some reason, PUSH SET will remain highlighted on the display. If this happens, it could mean that the color temperature is outside the supported range, or that illumination is too low.

2. Select ATW1, ATW2, and AWC, then press the CAM (SET) button, either the ATW setting menu or the AWC setting menu appears, and you can fine tune the white balance. Move the cursor to R or B, and then tilt the joystick left or right to fine tune the level. The R is red and the B is blue, moving in the + direction makes the colors darker, moving in the - direction makes them lighter.
