Notes on intelligent function settings and operation
• When setting intelligent function, do an actual detection test
to confirm that detection will be performed correctly.
• When the brightness of the entire screen suddenly changes,
the detection may be delayed for up to 5 minutes.
• If the camera is operated during intelligent function setting or
operation, [Restarting intelligent function. Please wait.] is
shown and intelligent function will restart.
Detection will not be performed while intelligent function is
restarting.
