2.3 For best performance

Location/avoiding noise (main monitor/sub monitor)

The main monitor, sub monitor, and other compatible Panasonic units use radio waves to communicate with each other. (The product operates in the frequency range of 1.88 GHz to 1.90 GHz, and the RF transmission power is 250 mW (max.).)

• For maximum coverage (approx. 100 m) and noise-free communications, install your main monitor:
• at a convenient, high, and central location with no obstructions between the sub monitor and main monitor in an indoor environment.
• away from electronic appliances such as TVs, radios, personal computers, wireless devices, or digital cordless phones.
• facing away from radio frequency transmitters, such as external antennas of mobile phone stations. (Avoid installing the main monitor near a window.)
• Coverage and voice quality depends on the local environmental conditions.

3.1 Using SD cards (sold separately)

SD cards can be used with the main monitor to record images and calls from the doorphone and camera. ( page 19)

When an SD card is not used, the main monitor's internal memory is used to save images. In this case, only doorphone images can be saved and the memory capacity is limited. We therefore recommend using an SD card to save images.

See page 42 for information about SD cards that can be used.

3.1.1 Cautions for SD cards

• The SD card indicator ( page 11) flashes when data is being read from or written to the SD card. Do not remove the SD card, press the RESET button ( page 11), or turn off the power to the main monitor while the SD card indicator is flashing. Failure to observe this may cause data to become corrupted.
• SD cards formatted by PCs or other devices must be formatted by the main monitor before they can be used. (→ page 41)
• When the write-protect lock switch (①) is set to "LOCK", the SD card cannot be formatted, and images and audio cannot be recorded or deleted.
• We recommend backing up important data to a PC or other device. Data on SD cards may become corrupted or be deleted if SD cards malfunction, or are exposed to electromagnetic waves or static electricity.

Disposing or transferring SD cards

- Users are solely responsible for the managing of SD card data. Formatting or deleting SD cards with the main monitor, a PC or other device, only changes the file management information and does not completely delete all data stored on the SD cards. When disposing of or transferring SD cards, we recommend physically destroying SD cards or using commercially available computer software to completely delete all data in SD cards.

3.1.2 Inserting SD cards

Important:

- Do not touch the SD card's metal contacts.

1 After confirming that the screen of the main monitor is off, insert the SD card into the SD card slot (①).

• Insert the SD card with the notched corner (②) facing upwards until it clicks into place.
• The SD card indicator flashes and the main monitor starts to confirm the recorded image information.

5.1 Image and audio recording

The amount of audio and image content that can be recorded depends on the where the content is being saved (internal memory or SD card).

In order to enjoy the full capabilities of the product, we recommend using an SD card for the save destination.

• When an SD card is inserted into the main monitor, it automatically becomes the default save destination. (The save destination cannot be selected.)
  – See page 10 for information about supported SD cards and how they are used.

Save destination		SD card (2 GB - 64 GB)		Internal memory (when an SD card is not inserted)
Maximum number of images		3,000*1		50
Recorded image type		Doorphone images and calls(→ page 20)	Camera images and calls(→ page 25)	Doorphone images only(→ page 20)
Content of each recording	Incoming call recordings(automatic recording)	Video: max of approx. 30 seconds	Series of images recorded at 1 second intervals and audio: max of approx. 30 seconds	Still images: max of 8
	Monitor recordings(manual recording)
	Talk recordings	Video and audio: max of approx. 90 seconds*2	Series of images recorded at 1 second intervals and audio: max of approx. 90 seconds*2	Cannot record

*1 Differs depending on the capacity of the SD card. See page 19 for a guide to the capacity and number of images that can be recorded with SD cards.
*2 See page 36 for audio recording settings in [Record calls] for the doorphone and camera.

Note:

• Recorded images from the internal memory can be copied to SD cards. (→ page 41)
• Images recorded on SD cards can be played on a PC. (→ page 41)

Guide for SD card capacity and recording

The following table gives an approximate guide to the number of images that can be recorded, based on which device took the images and the size of the SD card used, when the default settings are used ([Record calls] is set to [Disable] ( page 36)).

Unit: number of recorded images

	Capacity	2 GB	4 GB	8 GB	16 GB	32 GB	48 GB	64 GB
Recorded image type	Doorphone images only	125	255	520	1,040	2,090	3,000	3,000
	Camera images only	2,300	3,000	3,000	3,000	3,000	3,000	3,000

Note:

• When using a camera, we recommend using an SD card with a capacity of 4 GB or more.
• The number of images that can be recorded in the table are just a guide and may differ from the actual number of images that can be recorded.
• Because SD cards contain data such as file system management information, the complete capacity cannot be used to save data. When other data is saved to an SD card, the number of images and videos that can be saved is reduced.

5.2 Recording doorphone images and conversations

5.2.1 Automatically recording incoming call images

When there is an incoming call, regardless of whether you answer the call or not, images are automatically recorded about 2 seconds after receiving the call. (See page 19 for information about the recorded contents.)

When calls are not answered:

Recorded images are saved as unchecked images, and the notification indicator of the main monitor flashes.

Note:

• When there is an incoming call from another doorphone when talking or monitoring with a doorphone ( page 30), you must end the call or monitoring in order to display and save the image from the incoming call.
• When there are multiple doorphones and there is an incoming call from another doorphone, while receiving an incoming call, the number of recorded images (8 images), and the length of recorded videos (about 30 seconds), are reduced.

When the internal memory or SD card's memory is full (auto image updating)

When the memory is full, it is not necessary to manually delete images in order to record new messages because existing images, starting with the oldest image, are automatically deleted.

– Images that have not been viewed are also deleted.
- See page 13 for information about checking the recording status of the internal memory or SD card.

5.2.2 Record images and audio until the end of calls (Record calls)

To use this function, an SD card must be in the main monitor and [Record calls] must be appropriately configured ( page 36).

In this case, when calls from a doorphone are answered, the calls can be recorded from start to finish in 1 video file that includes audio data. (The maximum length of the video is about 120 seconds.)

5.2.3 Manually recording monitored images

Monitored images can be manually recorded with the main monitor and sub monitor. (See page 19 for information about the recorded contents.)

Images monitored with the camera can also be recorded with the same operations.

1 Perform the following operations when monitored images are displayed.

- REC is displayed on the screen when recording.

    G --> H["(Yes)"]

10.2 Using repeaters

If the sub monitor or camera are used away from the main monitor, or if there are obstructions ( page 7) between the sub monitor or camera and the main monitor, the following problems may occur. In these cases, using a repeater (additional accessory, page 4) may improve transmissions between the devices.

– calls with the sub monitor cut out and images are distorted
– images from the camera are distorted or notifications from camera sensors cannot be received
- When × is displayed for the sub monitor or the camera's indicator lamp flashes in red, the main monitor cannot connect to the sub monitor or camera

Note:

• Up to 2 repeaters can be used. A single repeater can be used to send signals to multiple sub monitors or cameras. However, the same repeater cannot send signals to both sub monitors and cameras.
• Signal range differs depending on factors such as the structure of rooms or the types of walls used. After

registering devices to the main monitor ( page 40), see the repeater's Getting Started for information about appropriate installation locations.

Signal range and repeater installation example

Using each repeater connected separately

This extends signals away from the main monitor. Because signals are sent through the main monitor, different types of devices can be connected to each repeater. (For example, sub monitors can be connected to one repeater and cameras can be connected to another.) This is useful when you want to connect to different types of devices over shorter distances.

    style F fill:#ccf,stroke:#333

Using 2 repeaters connected together

This extends the signal away from the main monitor by sending signals directly between repeaters. Because the signals are sent between repeaters, the same type of device must be connected to both repeaters (all sub monitors or all cameras). This is useful when you want to connect to the same type of devices over long distances.

- The /ID indicator (②) flashes green.

- The indicator lights when the registration is completed. (Depending on the signal status, the indicator may not light in green. In this case, see the repeater's Getting Started.)

Note:

- When using devices in separate buildings or over long distances, cut outs and image distortions may not be improved even if a repeater is used.

10.3 Cancelling sub monitors, cameras, and repeaters

- Cancelling can only be performed on the main monitor.

1 From the top menu, touch → → [Register/Cancel] → [Cancel] → select the type of device to be cancelled.

2 Select the device to cancel from the displayed list.

- Cancelling repeaters: When 2 repeaters are connected together, only the farthest from the main monitor can be cancelled.

3 Confirm the message and then touch [Yes].

10.4.2 SD card folder structure and file formats

When an SD card is inserted into the main monitor, folders are created in the SD card. Data directly saved to the SD card and data copied from the internal memory to the SD card are saved to separate folders.

• Do not change the name of folders or delete folders with a PC. (If you do so data cannot be played with the main monitor.)
• The following 3 types of files are saved to the SD card.

– JPG: still images (JPEG format)
– MOV: videos (Motion JPEG format)
– TXT: recording data (text format)

Recorded image folder structure and file formats when saving data directly to SD cards

Folder structure

Example:

$$ \begin{array}{c} \text {DCIM / 100_D501} \ \text {①} \end{array} $$

① Folder number (100 - 129)

- When using SD cards with data saved from other devices, folder numbers 100 - 999 are available.

File format

Example:

$$ \begin{array}{c} \text {DRI_0001.JPEG} \ \boxed {①} \end{array} $$

① Name of the device the image was recorded from

• DR1 - DR2: Doorphone 1 - 2
• CM1 - CM4: Camera 1 - 4

② File number

• 1 recorded image is saved to each number.
• File numbers from 0001 to 0100 are created in each folder.

11.1 Troubleshooting

Monitor display (doorphone images)

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
Images appear distorted.	Images may appear distorted because of the characteristics of the camera lens. This is not a malfunction.	-
The background appears greenish.	At night or when there is poor light in the area around the doorphone, lights or white objects near the doorphone may appear greenish. This is not a malfunction.	-
Images at night are dark and faces cannot be identified.	[Automatic illumination] is set to [Disable].→ Change the setting to [Enable].Even when the doorphone's LED lights are lit, because the light from the LED lights cannot illuminate the edges of the visible area (the areas directly next to the doorphone), faces of people may not be identifiable even when they are close to the doorphone.→ We recommend installing extra lights in the area around the doorphone.	37-
The images of people's faces are dark.	Images of people's faces appear dark when there is strong sunlight or a backlight in the area around the doorphone.→ Use the backlight compensation function.	34
Images are dirty or unclear.Images are not in focus.	There is dirt on the surface of the doorphone's lens.Wipe the lens with a soft, dry cloth.There is water condensation on the surface of the doorphone's lens.→ Wait for the condensation to evaporate.	42-
Images are white or black.	The brightness of the display is not correctly adjusted.→ Adjust the brightness when images are displayed.	34
Images are white, or white lines or circles are shown on the display.	Strong light such as sunlight is shining into the lens of the doorphone causing images to be difficult to see on the display. (This is not a malfunction.)→ Locating the doorphone away from direct sunlight or changing the angle that the doorphone is installed may help reduce this problem.	-
Images are flickering.	AC (alternating current) lights such as fluorescent lights are used near the doorphone.AC (alternating current) lights such as fluorescent lights may cause flickering in dark environments. (This is not a malfunction.)	-
Images of the area you want to view in the zoom screen are not displayed correctly.	Change the zoom position setting to a suitable position.→ Configure the [Zoom position settings] settings.	15
Images displayed on the sub monitor distort or are displayed slowly. (It takes 5 seconds or more to be displayed.)	The antenna on the sub monitor is being covered with your hand.Do not cover it.The sub monitor is too far from the main monitor, or there is an object such as a concrete wall obstructing the signal.Move the sub monitor closer to the main monitor or to an area that does not have any obstructions.	127

Monitor display (camera images)

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
Even though there are people, they cannot be viewed at all or can only be partially viewed.	You may not be able to correctly view people with the camera in the following cases.When people are moving near the edge of the sensor range.When people move slowly or quickly across the front of the camera.When people move closely across the front of the camera (approx. 1 m).	-
Images are dirty or unclear (out of focus).	There is dirt on the surface of the camera's lens cover.Wipe the lens cover with a soft, dry cloth.	-
Images are not displayed with the correct brightness.	The brightness in the area where the camera is installed is changing rapidly.Wait about 1 second. The brightness will be automatically adjusted.	-
Images are blurry and people's faces or other objects are hard to distinguish.	When images of dark areas are viewed, due to the characteristics of the image sensor of the camera, people's faces can be hard to distinguish. (This is not a malfunction.)→ We recommend installing extra lights in the area around the camera. (The camera's LED lights cannot produce enough light to illuminate the area in this situation.)	-
Objects in images are blurred.	Images may blur when the subject moves. (This is a characteristic of the image sensor of the camera and is not a malfunction.)Images of objects can easily blur when images of dark areas are viewed or if the object is dark.→ We recommend installing extra lights in the area around the camera. (The camera's LED lights cannot produce enough light to illuminate the area in this situation.)	-
White points or coloured light points are displayed in images.	White points or coloured light points may appear in images when images of dark areas are viewed or if the object is dark. (This is a characteristic of the image sensor of the camera and is not a malfunction.)→ We recommend installing extra lights in the area around the camera. (The camera's LED lights cannot produce enough light to illuminate the area in this situation.)	-
Images have uneven colour.	AC (alternating current) lights such as fluorescent lights may cause uneven colouring or flickering.Setting [Uneven colour prevention] to [On] may reduce the uneven colour and flickering. (However, this may reduce the image quality of images with dark areas.)	27

Ringtone

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
The ringtone for the doorphone or camera does not sound.	● The ringtone volume is muted.→ Activate the sound for the ringtone.● The sub monitor's batteries are discharged.→ Charge the batteries.	3514

Calls (doorphone, camera, and intercom calls)

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
Sound cuts in/out or fades.	The surroundings of the main monitor, the sub monitor, or the doorphone are noisy, causing the sound to cut out or fade.→ Try using the "Press-to-talk" mode.When talking with the sub monitor or camera:The antenna (→ page 12) on the sub monitor is being covered with your hand.→ Do not cover it.When talking with the sub monitor or camera:The sub monitor or camera is too far from the main monitor, or there is an object such as a concrete wall obstructing the signal.→ Move the sub monitor or camera closer to the main monitor or to an area that does not have any obstructions.If the sub monitor or camera cannot be moved to another area, installing a repeater (additional accessory) may improve the signal.	17-739
Calls cannot be heard because of noise or feedback.	Noise or feedback may occur when you are too close to the other party.→ Move away from the other party.	-
Your voice cannot be heard by the visitor but the visitor's voice can be heard.	You are using the "Press-to-talk" mode. (P is displayed on the main monitor and (C) is displayed on the sub monitor.)→ When using the "Press-to-talk" mode, the visitor can hear your voice only while you are pressing (TALK).	17

Sub monitor (charging)

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
flashes and 2 shorteps sound.	The battery level is very low.→ Charge the batteries immediately.	14
en if you place the sub nitor on the charger,charge indicator does light up.(care) (prz) (prz) (prz)	The AC adaptor is disconnected from the power outlet.→ Plug the AC adaptor into the power outlet firmly.The sub monitor is not placed on the charger correctly.→ Replace the sub monitor securely. (The charge indicator lights in red.)The batteries are new or discharged.→ Place the sub monitor on the charger and wait for a few minutes.
charge indicator does not go off after the batteries have been charged for about 8urs.(care) (prz) (prz) (prz) (prz)	If the sub monitor is picked up off the charger or used during charging, the charging time will become longer.The charging time may increase when the operating temperature is lower than 20 °C.The charging time increases when the power of the main monitor is turned off or is displayed on the sub monitor.→ Make sure the power of the main monitor is turned on, and charge the sub monitor in a location near the main monitor where is displayed for the sub monitor's signal display.	-714
flashes after onlyng the sub monitor 2 or mes after charging.	Clean the ends of batteries (⊕ and ⊖) with a dry cloth and charge again.It is time to replace the batteries.	14
The sub monitor, the AC adaptor, or the charger is warm.	● This is normal. (It may feel a little warmer in summer than in winter.) → If it feels very hot, disconnect the AC adaptor from the power outlet and contact an authorised service centre.	-

Camera (sensor operations)

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
Monitoring can be performed with the camera but sensor notifications are not received.	The camera (sensor detection) is turned off.→ Touch The camera's [Sensor selection] setting is set to [Off] (not make detections).→ Set [Sensor selection] to a setting other than [Off].	2426
Sensors do not make detections.The motion detection and heat sensor do not work	Motion detection/heat sensorThe sensors do not operate when [Sensor selection] is set to [Off] or [External sensor only].→ Check the settings.Motion detection does not workMotion detection does not operate at night when [Motion detection] is set to [Day only].→ Check the settings.Detections may not be made when the object makes small movements.→ Change the [Motion detection sensitivity] setting to a higher sensitivity.Detections are hard to make when it is dark.→ Use the heat sensor for detections or install lights to illuminate the area around the object.Heat sensor does not workThe heat sensor does not operate at midday when [Heat sensor detection] is set to [Night only].→ Check the settings.Detections may not be made in the following situations.- when reflective objects are in front of the camera and can interfere with the heat detection, such as glass- when snow is on the surface of the heat sensor- when people move towards the front of the cameraWhen the outside temperature is close to the body temperature, it is hard to make detections. It is also hard to make detections when people wear thick clothes.→ Change the [Heat sensor sensitivity] setting to a higher sensitivity.	262626--262626
The sensors do not work correctly.Sensors are triggered each time a car passes by (separated by more than 5 m)Sensors are triggered when there are no people near the camera.	Motion detection/heat sensorIn the following situations, the sensors are triggered by detecting changes to the temperature and movement of objects.When a car enters the detection range. (When a car or light from a car's headlights enters the detection range, movement is detected. The high temperature of a car's muffler or bonnet may cause sensors to be triggered even from 5 m away, or more.)When objects that are in the detection range are moved by wind, such as tree branches or clothes hung out to dry.When small animals such as dogs or cats enter the detection range.When rain or snow falls.→ Adjust the angle of the camera so that it does not face roads.When using motion detection, adjust the detection range with the [Motion detection range] setting. To avoid mistakenly detecting light from car headlights at night, set [Motion detection] to [Day only].→ When using the heat sensor, you can use the heat sensor's lever to adjust the sensor's angle and the sensor range cap to adjust the detection range. (See the camera's manuals for more information.)Heat sensor onlyThe heat sensor may make incorrect detections in the follow locations.- where the camera can be exposed to direct sunlight- near heating and cooling devices that cause rapid temperature change-in a greasy or moist place- underneath outdoor lights or other areas that can become hot- near fire or heating devices- where the camera can be exposed to interference from magnetic devices- where reflective objects are in front of the camera and can interfere with the heat detection, such as glass- where there are strong light emitting devices such as fluorescent lights that can affect the temperature- near devices that emit radio waves, such as mobile phonesWhen the outside air temperature is cold, the detection range (approx. 5 m) becomes longer and too many detections may be made.→ Change the [Heat sensor sensitivity] setting to a lower sensitivity.	-2627-26
The heat sensor has trouble making detections.	The surface of the heat sensor is dirty.→ Wipe the surface of the heat sensor with a soft, dry cloth.	-
People moving towards the front of the camera cannot be detected.	Because of the characteristics of the sensors, the camera may not be able to detect people moving towards the front of the camera.→ Perform the following operations.- Change the camera location so that objects pass the camera from the sides. (It is easier to detect objects moving sideways in front of the camera.)If you want to detect objects moving towards the front of the camera, use a commercially available external sensor. (See the camera's manuals for more information.)	-

Others

Problem	Cause & Solution	Page
"Demo mode" is displayed on the screen.The ringtone regularly sounds.You cannot talk or make calls.	The [Demo mode] function setting is configured on the main monitor.→ From [Other] in the function settings, set [Demo mode] to [Off].	37
