Routine Maintenance (formerly: "Cleaning the Camera")

The former section title, "Cleaning the Camera" has been changed to, "Routine Maintenance" due to the "■ Confirmation of Video Image" section being added and the explanation on how to clean the camera has been revised in the "■ Cleaning Method" section.

■ Confirmation of Video Image

Regularly check to make sure the set capture area is not misaligned, and is still in focus.

If necessary, re-adjust

■ Cleaning Method

Before beginning any work, turn off the power.

Cleaning the Dome Cover, Top Cover, and Lens Protector

1 Wash off foreign substances such as dust and sand using clean water*.

* Since indoor cameras (VB-H730F Mk II, VB-S30D Mk II, VB-S800D Mk II, VB-S805D Mk II, VB-R13, VB-R11, VB-H651V, VB-M641V, and VB-M640V) cannot be directly washed with water, wipe them clean with a soft cloth that has been dampened with clean water.

2 If the lens protector is dirty with something that cannot be removed with water, such as fingerprints or oil, gently wipe the lens protector clean with a soft sponge or cloth dampened with a neutral dishwashing detergent diluted to approximately 1% with water.

3 Wipe them clean with a soft cloth that has been dampened with clean water to ensure that water droplets and detergent do not remain**.

** For the VB-H761LVE-H, VB-H751LE-H, VB-M741LE-H, use clean water (water from the faucet, etc.) to rinse off the detergent and let it dry naturally.

CANON VB-H761LVE - Cleaning the Dome Cover, Top Cover, and Lens Protector - 1

Important

By performing an incorrect cleaning method, the dome cover or top cover, or lens protector could become scratched and will need to be replaced for a fee. Therefore, follow the next set of instructions carefully.

  • Because of dust, dirt, or fingerprints etc. the auto focus may not work properly or the reflection of backlight or infrared light causes the image to become white and cloudy. In order to preserve the level of image quality, it is necessary to regularly clean the protective window.
  • Do not wipe with a dry cloth. Never wipe with a cloth especially without removing the attached grime. This may result in scratches to the dome cover, top cover and/or lens protector.
  • Use caution for the following points for the hydrophilic coating models.

- Sponges and cloths used for cleaning, even if new, can have impurities adhered to it and can lower the effect of the coating. Therefore, use it after washing the sponge or cloth with a neutral dishwashing detergent.

- Spraying with spray bottles can deteriorate the coating effect due to impurities such as lubricants. Therefore, we advise not to use spray bottles.

The hydrophilic coating models have a "hydrophilic coating model label" attached on the product's exterior cover.

CANON VB-H761LVE - Important - 1

text_image "hydrophilic coating model label"

Cleaning the Lens

Use a commercial lens cleaner to remove grime on the lens surface.

• Scratches on the lens surface may result in poor video capture.
- Auto focus functionality may be degraded if the lens surface is dusty or dirty.

Audio Detection

R13 R11 M50 H65x M641 H761 H751 M741

Detects audio input to the camera. There are two types of detection.

These are set with [Event] > [Audio Detection] (P. 166), not with [Intelligent Function].

[Volume Detection]: Detects when volume level exceeds or falls below a reference volume.

[Scream Detection]: Detects screams or cries from people.

Notes on Intelligent Function Settings and Operations

  • When setting the Intelligent Function, do an actual detection/tracking test to confirm that detection will be performed correctly.
  • If a sudden change in lightness or darkness occurs within the entire screen, proper detection may not be possible for up to five minutes. When tracking, the effect will be visible as soon as there is change in the scene.
  • Detection/tracking will not be performed while the Intelligent Function is restarting.
  • If the camera is operated while configuring or using the Intelligent Function, [Restarting intelligent function. Please wait.] is displayed and the Intelligent Function will restart.

  • If the display switches between Day mode and Night mode, [Restarting intelligent function. Please wait.] is displayed and intelligent function will restart.

  • If [Basic] > [Video] > [All Videos] > [Video Size Set] settings on the Setting Page are changed, be sure to change the preset position settings (R1xN 50 H76x) and Intelligent Function settings, and check operations. The Intelligent Function may not operate, depending on the settings.

R1xM50 H76x

  • When the image is zoomed in (telephoto), detection may not work as expected.
  • Please set the Intelligent Function again if the angle of view has changed through camera operation, or the preset/home position has changed.
  • If [Status] in [Detection Settings] has [Enable] when the camera position is fixed, control privileges cannot be obtained by the Viewer connected by the user without privileges for privileged camera control or RM Viewer. Also, the preset tour will no longer run.
  • If you use a preset registered with the digital zoom, the camera position at registration may not be able to be reproduced with a high degree of accuracy. Therefore, it is recommended that you use a preset registered in the optical zoom area for the intelligent function.

Difficult-to-Detect Subjects

The following subjects may not be detected/tracked, or may result in erroneous detection/tracking.

  • Objects or areas where there is little contrast in color or brightness with the background may not be detected/tracked.
  • Small objects and changes on the screen may not be detected/tracked.
  • Partial or entire changes in brightness on the screen may trigger detection/tracking.
  • When there are multiple overlapping objects, there may be a change in detection. For example, objects passing may either not be detected or the timing of detection may be incorrect.
  • When there are large numbers of objects in the scene, objects may not be properly detected/tracked.

R13R12

  • Objects with little movement may not be tracked.
  • Objects directly below the camera may take time to be tracked.
  • Areas with bright reflections or selected areas that are very bright, can result in an object not probably being tracked.

Registering Presets

R1x M50 H76x

It is strongly recommended that you register the camera angle as a preset in advance and lock the camera to that position when using video detection. It is also recommended that the angle of view that captures targeted objects at a larger ratio be used.

For details on preset registration, please refer to “[Camera] > [Preset] Registering Presets” (P. 131).

Auto Tracking Target Frame

Auto tracking prioritizes tracking the first detected moving object. While auto tracking, other moving objects will not be detected even if they satisfy [Tracking Start Conditions].

CANON VB-H761LVE - Detection Status for Auto Tracking - 3

Important

  • When setting the Auto Tracking Function, it is recommended that you test the auto tracking, to confirm that object will continue to be tracked.
  • Moving objects are not individually recognized during auto tracking. Thus when two objects pass each other, or there are multiple moving objects, proper tracking of the object may not be possible.
  • If there are multiple moving objects, large objects closest to the center of the screen are prioritized and will continue to be tracked.
  • The privacy mask areas are also part of the auto tracking detection area.
  • The camera will not track the subject while video is being displayed on the Setting Page, or while camera control privileges are obtained using the camera viewer, etc. To allow automatic tracking with the camera, you must release the camera control privileges.
  • While auto tracking, preset tours will not start.
  • Auto tracking beyond view restrictions is not possible.

CANON VB-H761LVE - Important - 1

Note

The detection status of auto tracking can also be checked in the [Event and Input/Output] menu of the Camera Viewer (P. 83).

Auto Tracking Termination

Auto tracking will be terminated in the following cases.

  • The Camera Viewer, etc. obtained camera control privileges or the video is displayed on the Setting Page.
  • The camera moved to a preset position due to the triggering of a volume detection event or an external input device.

R13 R11

• Capture of a panorama image has started.

- You executed [Maintenance] > [General] > [Tool] > [Refresh Drive System]. R13 R11

- The configured auto [Tracking Duration] time has elapsed.

- Tracking cannot continue because sight of the moving object was lost (examples: movement of target object was lost, target object is lost in shadow of another object, target object falls below the sizes possible for tracking, target object moves outside the possible tracking area).

- The [Intelligent Function] has restarted.

When auto tracking is terminated, a tracking OFF event is triggered and the camera returns to the initial camera position (when [Specify the initial camera position] has been selected). If camera control privileges were revoked, the camera will move after camera control privileges are released.

Auto tracking detection resumes after the camera moves back to the original position.
