Panasonic WV-CS850 Operating Instructions Manual page 40

Important Notices:
• The object of motion detection should meet the following conditions.
1) It should be larger than 1/48 of the size of the picture screen.
2) The contrast ratio (at max. detection level) between the object and the background picture on the
screen should be more than 5 %.
3) The time it takes the object to move from one end of the screen to the other should be more than
0.1 seconds.
• Also under the following conditions, mask or adjust the detection level to prevent malfunction.
1) When leaves or curtains etc, are swayed by the wind.
2) When a noisy picture exists such as under low light condition.
3) When the object is subjected to illumination by lighting equipment that constantly turns on and
off.
• The alarm signal will take about 0.2 second to reach the alarm terminal of the VTR, after the camera
detects the object.
Because the alarm signal is multiplexed on the video signal it may be mistakenly interpreted by other
video equipment as a time code signal. Therefore, when this camera is not used in a Panasonic
Intelligent CCTV System, select OFF to prevent the above from occurring.
