About the CMOS image sensor
When continuously shooting a bright light source such as a spotlight, the color filter of the CMOS
image sensor may have deteriorated and it may cause discoloration. Even when changing the
fixed shooting direction after continuously shooting a spotlight for a certain period, the discoloration may remain.
When shooting fast-moving subjects or performing panning/tilting operations, objects crossing
the shooting area may look to be bending askew.

After connecting the camera, refer to “Configure the settings of the camera” (leaflet) and perform the camera settings.
Please read the following information about the camera’s built-in Body Heat Sensor (Pyroelectric
infrared sensor) before deciding where to mount the camera.
Refer to the Panasonic Network Camera website at
http://panasonic.net/pss/security/support/info.html for further information
about the built-in Body Heat Sensor.
The camera’s built-in Body Heat Sensor is a pyroelectric infrared sensor, which means it uses
infrared rays to detect temperature differences within its range that are emitted naturally by people,
animals, etc. The sensor can be used to trigger the camera to buffer (i.e., temporarily store) camera
images in its memory. You can view these images later as desired. The sensor can also be used to
trigger the camera to transfer images to someone or somewhere, by FTP, E-mail, or HTTP.
If there is no temperature difference between objects in range of the
camera’s sensor and the surrounding environment, such as on a hot
summer day, the sensor may not be able to detect properly.
If the sensor is obstructed, the sensor is not able to make detections.
Remove any obstacles in front of the sensor.
Confirm the status of the wireless connection on the [Status] tab of the “Wireless” page.
Strip range
Connect external devices to the EXT I/O terminal.
When connecting an external device, remove 9 mm - 10 mm

If an object is within about 1 m {1/32 inches} of the camera, the sensor
may detect the object even if it is outside of the sensor’s range.
For more information, see Configure the basic settings [Basic] in the Operating Instructions
(included in the CD-ROM).
If the lens is aimed at an area outside of the sensor’s active detection
range, the objects that trigger the sensor may not be visible, and therefore
buffered or transferred images may not show the object that triggered the
sensor.
In the example below, the person has triggered the sensor, but the person is not in the
visible range of the camera.
We recommend that you limit the pan and tilt range of the camera to the active detection range of the sensor, or that you limit other user’s access to the pan and tilt features.
Mounting the Camera
Before installing the camera, check that the camera settings have been
completed. Refer to “Configure the settings of the camera” (leaflet).
Installing the camera on the wall
(This illustration represents BL-VT164W.)
Adjust the camera to a suitable position/direction while confirming the images actually displayed
on the computer screen.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to connect 2
or more wires, use a splitter.
Input and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configuring the
setting. The default of EXT I/O terminal 2 is "ALARM IN 2" and of EXT I/O terminal 3 is
"ALARM IN 3". It is possible to determine whether or not to receive input from EXT I/O
terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) by selecting "Off", "Alarm input", "Alarm output" or "AUX
output" for "Terminal alarm 2" or "Terminal alarm 3" on the [Alarm] tab on the "Alarm setup"
page. Refer to the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM) for further information.
The default of EXT I/O terminals is "Off". When "Off" is selected, it is possible to connect
external devices as well as the input setting.
When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not cause
signal collision with external signals.
Remove the cable cover, secure the safety wire to the camera
using screw B (accessory) and washer M (accessory).

Refer to “Determining the mounting position” when mounting the camera.
When deciding where to mount the camera, you can verify the sensor’s
ability to make detections that satisfy your needs by referring to the
camera’s POWER indicator. See Configure the basic settings [Basic] in
the Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM), and configure the
camera to light the POWER indicator in orange when the sensor makes
a detection. You can then adjust the sensitivity of the sensor (see
Configure the settings relating to the alarm action [Alarm] in the
Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM)) or change the
camera’s location if necessary. Note that if you increase the sensitivity of
the sensor, the sensor may make inaccurate detections.
Note
If you are not satisfied with the sensor’s ability to make detections, we recommend using
the camera’s motion detection feature. This feature detects motion by detecting changes in
the camera image. For more information, see Configure the VMD settings [VMD area] in the
Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM).
The built-in sensor and the motion detection feature are not designed to be used for security or surveillance. No responsibility will be taken by our company with respect to consequences resulting from the use of these features.

and perform the camera settings.
As shown in the illustration below, the sensor can easily detect
temperature differences of objects moving sideways within the detection
range, but cannot easily detect objects moving slowly towards the sensor.
Mount the camera where objects often pass the camera from the sides.
Because the detection range is easily affected by the temperature of the surrounding environment
or how fast the objects in front of the camera are moving, you should take the following into consideration when deciding where to mount the camera.
About 5 m
{3/16 inches}
About the POWER indicator and the WIRELESS indicator (WPS indicator)
