legal rights, and the responsibility for making sure you
are complying with applicable laws is yours alone.
• Access to the images and audio is protected only by a
user name and the password you set up. No further
authentication is provided nor should you presume
that any other protective filtering is done by the
service. Since the service is Internet-based, there is a
risk that the image or audio you are monitoring can be
viewed or used by a third-party via the network.

due to the limitation of the wireless LAN
specifications, SONY shall not be liable for any
damage.
• Always make a test recording, and verify that it was
recorded successfully.
SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES

commands (see page 106)
This section explains how to assign an IP address to the
camera using the supplied setup program and how to
configure the network.
Before starting, connect the camera, referring to
“Connecting the Camera to a Local Network” in the
supplied Installation Manual.
Consult the administrator of the network about the
assigned IP address.
Notes
• The IP Setup Program may not operate correctly if you

Note
To use the 802.1X authentication function, you need
knowledge of the 802.1X authentication (WPA and
WPA2) and digital certificate. To establish an 802.1X
network, you need to configure the authenticator, access
point, authentication server and other elements. For
details on these settings, refer to the manual of the

Authentication server + CA
Supplicant
A supplicant is a device that connects to the
authentication server to join the network. This camera
serves as a supplicant in the 802.1X network. The
Using the 802.1X Authentication Function — 802.1X Menu

Page 54
supplicant can enter the 802.1X network after the
appropriate authentication by the authentication server.
Authenticator
An authenticator forwards certificate request data or
response data that the supplicant or authentication server
issues to the other party. Normally a hub, router or
access point serves as an authenticator.
Authentication server
An authentication server has a database of connecting
users and verifies if the supplicant is a correct user or
not. It is also called RADIUS server.
CA (Certificate Authority)
A CA issues and manages certificates of the
authentication server (CA certificates) and user
certificates. The CA is essential for certificate-based
user authentication. Normally a CA is located inside an
authentication server.
Administrating the Camera
Note
This camera supports only the EAP-TLS mode in which
the supplicant and the server authenticate each other
using the certificate. This mode requires a CA that issues
the certificate.
Note
To use the 802.1X authentication function for wireless
networks, set up Security in the Wireless tab of the
Network menu. For details, see “Security” on page 50.

Client certificate Tab
You can import a client certificate to the camera or
export a certificate request.
TLS mode
Select the TLS mode.
The EAP-TLS authentication performs certificate-based
authentication. It requires private key information
consisting of a key pair for the client certificate to store
in the camera. The TLS mode allows two modes
according to the acquirer of the key pair.
Use a key pair from a CA: Uses the certificate
including the private key information issued by a
CA. The PKCS#12 and PEM formats are supported.
Use the camera’s built-in key pair: Uses the private
key information that is stored in the tamper-resistant
chip built in the camera. This mode is safety because
the private key information is not carried out at the
time of issuing the certificate request or importing
the certificate. Only the PEM format is supported in
this mode.
To use this mode, first obtain the certificate from the
CA by performing Export certificate request on
page 56.
Then click Submit, and the selected file will be
imported to the camera.
Note
The import process becomes invalid if the selected file is
not a client certificate or the imported client certificate is
not allowed.
To display the information of the client
certificate
When the client certificate has been saved in the camera
correctly, its information appears on Status, Issuer DN,
Subject DN, Validity Period and Extended Key
Usage.
Status: Shows if the status of the client certificate is
valid or invalid.
Valid means the client certificate is correctly stored
and set.
Invalid means the client certificate is not correctly
stored and set.
Possible causes of Invalid are the following:
– When Use a key pair from a CA is selected and
the private key password included in the client
certificate is not specified correctly
– When Use a key pair from a CA is selected and
the private key password is specified in spite of the
fact that the key pair in the client certificate is not
encrypted.
– When Use a key pair from a CA is selected and
the key pair is not included in the client certificate.
– When Use the camera’s built-in key pair is
selected and the client certificate issued
corresponding to Export certificate request is not
imported in the camera.
Note
When the client certificate to be imported is of
PKCS#12 format and the private key password is not set
correctly, “<Put correct private key password>” is
displayed in the boxes of Issuer DN, Subject DN,

Using this menu, you can set the conditions for
activating the built-in “Moving object detection” and the
“Unattended object detection” functions. Moving object
detection detects moving objects in the camera image
and outputs an alarm. Unattended object detection
detects difference between the previously shot
background image and the image being shot currently
and outputs an alarm when the difference continues
recognized for more than the specified period.
The Object detection menu consists of three tabs:
Common, Unattended object setting and
Configuration.
What is unattended object detection ?
The unattended object detection function of this unit
compares the reference background image with the
current image to detect an unattended object. The unit
can perform “Abandoned object detection” of an object
that did not exist and appears now as an unattended
object. The unit can also perform “Removed object
detection” of an object that existed before and now has
disappeared as an unattended object.
Administrating the Camera
Abandoned object detection
The camera first stores in memory the background
image for reference. If an object that did not exist before
appears on the background and stops, the camera detects
the object as an unattended object. If the unattended
object stays in camera image for more than the specified
time, it is marked with a green frame and an alarm linked
to unattended object detection is output. you can activate
alarm sending of the FTP client function, alarm
recording of the image memory function and playback
of an audio file in synchronization with the alarm.

Administrating the Camera
Removed object detection
The camera first stores in memory the background
image for reference. If an object that existed before
moves and disappears, the camera detects the location
where the object existed as an unattended object. If there
are no changes in the unattended object (location) for
more than the specified time, that location is marked
with a green frame and an alarm linked to unattended
object detection is output. You can activate alarm
sending of the FTP client function, alarm recording of
the image memory function and playback of an audio
file in synchronization with the alarm.
Notes
• You can view an MPEG4 image only in the main
viewer during the setting of the object detection when
Dual codec is selected in the Video codec tab.
• The object detection function does not operate when
H.264 is selected in the Video codec tab.
• The unattended object detection may not work
correctly if the brightness of a scene changes
significantly, for example, when you shoot an outdoor
scene continuously from day to night.
• Unattended object detection may not work correctly if
the image is of flat scene such as a monochrome wall
or floor.
• Before actual use, perform an operation test and
confirm that the object detection function works
correctly.
