Before making connections,prepare the required peripheral devices and cables.Before starting the installation, check the entire system configuration. The following illustrationgives a wiring example of how to connect the camera to the network via a PoE device (hub).LAN cable (category 5 or better, straight)Use a LAN cable (category 5 or better, cross) when directly connecting the camera to a PC.When connecting to a network using a PoE hubIMPORTANT:Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the power of the camera after turning●off the power of the audio output devices. Otherwise, loud noise may be heard fromthe speaker.Make sure that the stereo mini plug is connected to this cable. When a monaural mini●plug is connected, audio may not be heard.When connecting a monaural speaker with amplifier, use a locally procured conversioncable (mono-stereo).Connect an external speaker with amplifier to the audio outputconnectorConnect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm) (Audio output is monaural.). Use an external powered speaker.Output impedance : Approx. 600 Ω (unbalanced)●Recommended cable length : Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}●Output level : –20 dBV●Connect the microphone to MIC/LINE INConnect a monaural mini plug (ø3.5 mm).Input impedance: Approx. 2 kΩ (unbalanced)●Recommended cable length: Less than 1 m {3.28 feet} (for microphone input)●Less than 10 m {32.8 feet} (for line input)Recommended microphone: Plug-in power type (option) ●Supply voltage: 2.5 V ±0.5 V●Input level for the line input: Approx. –10 dBV●Recommended sensitivity of microphone: –48 dB ±3 dB (0 dB=1 V/Pa,1 kHz)●IMPORTANT:Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to con-●nect 2 or more wires, use a splitter.Off, input, and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by con-●figuring the setting. Refer to the Operating Instructions on the provided CD-ROMfor further information about the EXT I/O terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) settings(“Off”, “Alarm input”, “Alarm output” or “AUX output”).Install external devices so that they do not exceed the rating of the network camera.●When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not●cause signal collision with external signals.IMPORTANT:The adjustment monitor is used for checking the adjustment of the angular field of●view when installing the camera or when servicing. It is not provided for recording/monitoring use.Depending on the monitor, some characters (camera title, preset ID, etc.) may not●be displayed on the screen.Use a switching hub or a router which is compliant with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX.●If a PoE hub is not used, each network camera must be connected to a 12 V DC●power supply.When using 12 V DC, power supply from a PoE hub or router is not required.●Connect the alarm input/output cableConnect the cables of external devices to the EXT I/O terminal plug.q When connecting an external device, remove 8 mm - 9 mm {5/16 inches - 11/32 inches} ofthe outer jacket of the cable and twist the cable core to prevent the short circuit first.Specification of cable (wire): AWG 20 - AWG 26, Single core, twistedw Push down the button of the desired terminal on the external I/O terminal plug with a ball-point pen, and release the button when the cable of the external device is fully insertedinto the terminal hole.PoE device (hub)PCLAN cable (category 5or better, straight)Adjustment monitorAdjustment monitorLAN cable(category 5 or better, straight)LAN cable(category 5 or better, straight)Powered speakerMicrophonePowered speakerMicrophoneNote:Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely connected.●ALARM IN1(DAY/NIGHT IN), ALARM IN2, ALARM IN3●Input specification : No-voltage make contact input (4 V - 5 V DC, internally pulled up)OFF : Open or 4 V - 5 V DCON : Make contact with GND (required drive current: 1 mA or more)ALARM OUT, AUX OUT●Output specification : Open collector output (maximum applied voltage: 20 V DC)Open : 4 V - 5 V DC by internal pull-upClose : Output voltage 1 V DC or less (maximum drive current: 50 mA)* The default of EXT I/O terminals is “Off”.SD MOUNT indicatorThe MONITOR OUT terminal output can be switched for the NTSC monitor/PAL monitor.●IMPORTANT:This is valid if the [Monitor out] is set to [Switch priority] ([Switch priority] is selected by●default).For details, refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM).NTSC/PAL switchHow to initialize the camera●Follow the steps below to initialize the network camera.qTurn off the power of the camera. When using a PoE hub, disconnect the LAN cable fromthe camera. When using an external power supply, disconnect the power cord plug from the12 V DC power supply terminal.wTurn on the power of the camera while holding down the INITIAL SET button, and thenkeep holding down the button for 5 seconds or more. About 2 minutes later, The camera willstart up and the settings including the network settings will be initialized.IMPORTANT:When the camera is initialized, the settings including the network settings will be initial-●ized. Note that the CRT key (SSL encryption key) used for the HTTPS protocol will notbe initialized.Before initializing the settings, it is recommended to write down the settings in advance.●Do not turn off the power of the camera during the process of initialization. Otherwise, it●may fail to initialize and may cause malfunction.INITIAL SET buttonFor U.S. and Canada:Panasonic System CommunicationsCompany of North America,Unit of Panasonic Corporationof North Americawww.panasonic.com/business/For customer support, call 1.800.528.6747Two Riverfront Plaza, Newark, NJ 07102-5490Panasonic Canada Inc.5770 Ambler Drive, Mississauga,Ontario, L4W 2T3 Canada(905)624-5010www.panasonic.caFor Europe and other countries:Panasonic Corporationhttp://panasonic.netPanasonic System Networks Co., Ltd.Fukuoka, JapanAuthorised Representative in EU:Panasonic Testing CentrePanasonic Marketing Europe GmbHWinsbergring 15, 22525 Hamburg, GermanyInstallation GuideIncluded Installation InstructionsPanasonic System Networks Co., Ltd. 2014Network connector RJ45 *1MONITOR OUT terminal(factory shipment: NTSC monitor)Microphone/line input connector *1Audio output connector *1EXT I/O terminals*112 V DC power supply terminal *1The component names of the camera are as follows.
