Precautions
In case of problem
Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange
odour comes from the unit, or if it seems not to
function correctly. Disconnect the power cord
immediately, and consult your dealer (or a
Sanyo Authorized Service Centre).
Do not open or modify
Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous
and cause damage to the unit. For internal
settings and repairs, consult your dealer (or a
Sanyo Authorized Service Centre).
Do not put objects inside the unit
Make sure that no metal objects or flammable
substance get inside the camera. If used with a
foreign object inside, it could cause a fire,
short-circuits or damages.
If water or a liquid gets inside the camera,
disconnect the power cord immediately, and
consult your dealer (or a Sanyo Authorized
Service Centre). Be careful to protect the
camera from rain, sea water, etc.
Be careful when handling the unit
To prevent damages, do not drop the camera or
subject it to strong shock or vibration.
Install away from electric or magnetic
fields
If installed close to a TV, radio transmitter,
magnet, electric motor, transformer, audio
speakers the magnetic field they generate will
distort the image.
Protect from humidity and dust
To prevent damages to the camera, do not
install it where there is greasy smoke or steam,
where the dampness may get too high, or where
there is a lot of dust.
Protect from high temperatures
Do not install close to stoves, or other heat
generating devices, such as spotlights, etc., or
where it could be subject to direct sunlight, as
that could cause deformation, discoloration or
other damages.
Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in
a kitchen or boiler room, as the temperature may
raise to high levels.
Install where the temperature range will stay
between –10°C and 50°C. (no condensation)
Cleaning
Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by
•
wiping it with a soft cloth. To remove stains,
wipe with a soft cloth moistened with a soft
detergent solution and wrung dry, then wipe
dry with dry soft cloth.
Do not use benzine, thinner or other
•
chemical product on the cabinet, as that may
cause deformation and paint peeling. Before
using a chemical cloth, make sure to read all
accompanying instructions. Make sure that
no plastic or rubber material comes in contact
with the cabinet for a long period of time, as
that may cause damage or paint peeling.

Features/Operating Environment
Web Server Function
This camera is equipped with a web server
function. The camera can be accessed using a
computer’s web browser in order to view the
camera images. In addition, up to a maximum of
16 users can simultaneously access a single
camera on the network.
Network Connections
This camera is equipped with both an Ethernet
connector and an RS-232C connector, allowing
it to be connected to a variety of different
network environments, such as LANs and the
Internet.
Wireless LAN Compatibility
The camera can also be used in a wireless LAN
environment by installing the specified wireless
LAN card.
Adoption of JPEG2000
The images captured by the camera are
compressed using the JPEG2000 format before
transmission. In comparison to conventional
JPEG formats, this format produces very little
image deterioration and allows large volumes of
data to be transmitted quickly (maximum 30 fps).
Note: The transmission rate will vary depending
on individual network conditions.
A network environment that can transmit
data at high speeds is required in order to
transmit data at 30 fps.
Alarm Recording and Playback Functions
The built-in motion sensor detects movement,
and the camera can also be connected to an
external alarm sensor (such as a switch) that is
set to detect abnormalities, so that images can
be recorded and played back when an alarm
occurs.
Day/Night Function
The day/night function allows the camera to
adapt to a variety of different luminance
conditions so that color images are monitored
during daytime, but under conditions of low
illumination such as nighttime, it switches
automatically to black & white.
Alarm Image Transfer Function
The alarm image can be transferred by E-mail.
(Compatible with POP before SMTP and SMTP
authentication.)
The camera requires the following conditions to
operate.

Flange Back Adjustment
The flange back is taken from the distance between the lens (sold separately) and the image capturing
surface of the camera. It is adjusted at the time of shipment from the factory to accommodate the types
of lenses that are generally assumed to be in use.
Accordingly, the flange back does not normally need to be adjusted. However, if attaching a zoom lens
and changing from wide angle to telephoto, the images may not be captured in proper focus, and so in
such cases the flange back should always be adjusted by following the procedure given below.
1
Connect a coaxial cable between the
camera output connector (MONITOR OUT)
of the camera and the monitor’s video
connector (VIDEO IN).
Turn on the camera’s power.
Adjust the flange back while viewing the
camera images on the monitor.
2
Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the
flange back locking screws.
3
Move the zoom lens to the telephoto
setting, and then use the lens focus ring
to adjust the focus.
4
Move the zoom lens to the wide angle
setting, and then use the flange back
adjustment dial to adjust the focus.
5
Move the zoom lens from wide angle to
telephoto (repeating steps 3 and 4) and
check that the images are properly
focused. Then tighten the flange back
locking screws.

Set the image transmission speed from the drop-down list box. Images can be
transmitted at maximum speed depending on the network environment that the
camera is connected to.
For example, if the maximum transmission speed for the network being
connected to is 15 fps, then the images can only be transmitted at a maximum
speed of 15 fps, even if the frame rate is set to “MID 3” or higher.
Available settings: BASIC (5 fps), MID 1 (10), MID 2 (15),
Use the drop-down list box to select the image quality (image compression
ratio). If a higher compression ratio is used (BASIC), the volume of image data
becomes smaller (the amount of image deterioration becomes greater) and the
transmission speed becomes faster.
Available settings: BASIC, MID 1, MID 2 (Default setting), MID 3, HIGH
Note: Alarm recording is carried out at the picture quality that is specified in the
alarm recording settings, not at the setting that is made here. (p. 47)
Select the image resolution from the drop-down list box. The volume of data
•
transmitted will be larger when a higher resolution is selected.
Use the drop-down list box to set the enlargement ratio to x2 or x4 (when
•
the image size is 160x120) or x2 (when the image size is 320x240). The
image will appear coarser when a greater enlargement ratio is selected.
Note:
When images that are compressed using JPEG2000 are played back, the
•
image refresh rate will vary depending on the performance specifications of
the computer being used. In addition, if other applications besides the web
browser are running, this may also cause the image refresh rate to become
slower or may result in unstable operation. You should avoid running other
applications at the same time as much as possible.
Set the FRAME RATE, PICTURE QUALITY and RESOLUTION settings to
•
levels that will not interfere with the operation of the network. If the amount
of data being transferred is too large for the network environment, it may
have an adverse effect on other network operations.
The picture quality and image resolution cannot be changed when
•
pre-alarm recording has been set.

default setting for the access level is
“Administrator” (ID3, 3333) which allows all
operations to be carried out.

(default setting: 80)
This setting is used when more than one camera
is connected to a broadband router and a single
IP address for that router is being used to make
the images being monitored by the camera
publicly available over the Internet. Refer to the
documentation provided with the broadband
router for further details.
If the images are not going to be publicly
available over the Internet, the HTTP PORT
NUMBER setting should normally be left at “80”
without being changed, even if more than one
camera is connected to the network.

This shows the MAC address for the camera.
Note:
Up to a maximum of 16 individual users can access
•
a single camera on the network at the same time.
However, only one user out of this maximum of 16
users can be accessing at Operator or Administrator
level at any one time.
Depending on the network environment, it may not
•
be possible for 16 users to be connected to a
camera at the same time. Once a user has
accessed a camera, the network may not allow
further accesses, so if this happens, change the
resolution for the transferred data (by reducing it) or
change the compression ratio (by increasing it) to
reduce the volume of data being transferred.
If a 17th user tries to access a camera, the message
•
“THE UNIT IS BUSY!” will be displayed on their
screen. Depending on the network environment, the
message “THE UNIT IS BUSY!” may be displayed
on a user’s computer screen even when less than
16 users are accessing a camera.
If a user at Administrator level accesses a camera
•
while a user at Operator level is accessing the
camera, the Administrator level user will have
priority. In such cases, the Operator level user will
be disconnected and the message “THE UNIT IS
DISCONNECTED!” will be displayed on their screen.
If an Operator or Administrator attempts to access
•
the camera while another user with the same
access level is accessing the camera, the second
access will have priority. In such cases, the first
access will be disconnected, and the message “THE
AUTHORIZED USER HAS LOGGED IN!” will be
displayed on that user’s computer screen.
Depending on the network environment, the speed
•
of data transmission to users may drop if the
number of users accessing the same camera
increases, and operations such as refreshing of
images may become delayed.
