Panasonic WV-SW598 Installation-Guide - Page 11

Periodically images on the screen appear to be distorted When the camera is installed in a location where it is subject to small vibrations (for example, when it is installed near devices that vibrate), images may appear distorted and stretched lengthways. This phenomenon is a characteristic of image pickup devices that use CMOS sensors and is caused by the relationship between the periodic movements of the camera and the timing that the image sensor reads images. This is not a problem with the camera. To reduce the possibility of this phenomenon occurring, install the camera in a secure location. What to do if "WARMING UP-PLEASE WAIT" appears on the display. This message indicates that the temperature inside the camera has become extremely low. In such a case, wait until the heater unit of the camera raises the internal temperature (for around 2 hours or more in low temperatures below -10 ºC {14 ºF}), and turn on the power again.

About the MOS image sensor • When continuously shooting a bright light source such as a spotlight, the color filter of the MOS image sensor may become deteriorated and this 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.

SEE HTTP://WWW.MPEGLA.COM Consumable parts The following are consumables: Replace them in accordance with their operating lifetimes. Their operating lifetimes vary depending on the usage environment and conditions. The operating lifetimes below are just guides for when using the camera at +35 °C {95 °F}. • Lens unit, panning motor, tilting motor, flat cable for tilting: Approx. 3.7 million operations (Approx. 20000 hours) Cooling fan: Approx. 52000 hours Slip ring: Approx. 3.7 million operations (Approx. 20000 hours) About the automatic status detection function When this product malfunctions due to exogenous noise, etc. for 30 seconds or more, the product will automatically reset and will return to normal state. When the product is reset, initialization will be carried out as when the power of the product is turned on. When the product repeatedly resets, exogenous noise level around the product may be high and that may cause malfunction. Contact your dealer for instructions. About the dehumidifying device This product has dehumidifying device to keep the inside at low moisture level, preventing condensation and quickly dissipating dew if produced. Dew may be produced depending on the conditions of temperature, humidity, winds, and rain, and it may take time to dehumidify. Lens and pan/tilt head If a lens and pan/tilt head are not performed for a long period of time, the grease coating inside these parts may become sticky. That may obstruct the parts from moving. To prevent this, move the lens or pan/tilt head periodically. Or perform position refresh periodically in the manner described in "Position refresh". 11
