Wireless Function Notes

If the transmission rate drops, the connection is lost, or other problems
occur when using the wireless functions, try the following corrective
actions.
Access Point and Antenna Installation Location
When using indoors, install the device in the room where you are

using the camera.
Install the device higher than the camera.

Install the device where people or objects do not come between it

and the camera.
Install the device as close to the camera as possible. In particular,

note that during outdoor use in poor weather, rain may absorb
radio waves and disrupt the connection.
Nearby Electronic Devices
If the transmission rate of a wireless LAN drops because of the
influence of the following electronic devices, stop using them or
establish a connection further away from them.
The camera communicates over wireless LANs via IEEE 802.11b/

g/n using radio waves in the 2.4 GHz band. For this reason, the
wireless LAN transmission rate may drop if there are Bluetooth
devices, microwave ovens, cordless telephones, microphones, or
similar devices operating on the same frequency band nearby.
If a wireless device on the same frequency band as the camera is

used nearby, the transmission rate of the wireless LAN will drop.
Notes for Using Multiple Cameras
When connecting multiple cameras to one access point, make

sure that the cameras' IP addresses are different.
When multiple cameras are connected to one access point, the

transmission rate drops.
When there are multiple IEEE 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz band) access

points, leave a gap of four channels between each wireless LAN
channel to reduce radio wave interference. For example, use
channels 1, 6, and 11, channels 2 and 7, or channels 3 and 8.
