Panasonic WV-CW864A Operating Instructions Manual page 43

Important Notices:
• The motion detection should meet the following conditions.
1) The picture size on the screen should be larger than 1/48 of the actual picture size.
2) The contrast ratio between the object and the background picture should be more than 5 % at
the maximum detection level.
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 picture has a high noise content due to low light conditions.
3) When the object is illuminated by lighting equipment that constantly turns on and off.
• The alarm signal will take approx. 0.2 seconds to reach the alarm terminal of the VCR, after the cam-
era 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.
• The motion detection function is not designed specifically for prevention of theft, fire, etc.
