Introduction

Operating Precautions

●VN-C10 is designed for indoor use. For outdoor use, prepare a proper housing to cover and protect the camera.

●The product should not be installed or used in the following locations.

¥Locations subject to rain or water.

¥Locations with hot air or oil vapors such as in kitchens, etc.

¥Locations where the allowed ambient temperature (0 °C to 40 °C) is exceeded.

¥Locations exposed to X-ray radiation or where strong electrical or magnetic waves are gener- ated.

¥Locations where corrosive gas is generated.

¥Locations with vibrations.

¥Locations with excessive dust.

●If VN-C10 and the cables connected to VN-C10 are installed at a location where strong electrical or magnetic waves are generated, near a radio, TV set, transformer, motor etc., the quality of image and color may be affected.

●If a high-intensity object (such as a lamp) is shot, the image on the screen may have vertical lines (smear) or blur (blooming) at its periphery. This is a characteristic of the CCD, and is not a defect.

●Clean the unit with the power turned off. Use a soft cloth like cotton flannel to wipe out dirt. Do not use paint thinner or benzine as a cleaning agent as this may cause melting or tarnishing of the unit surface. If dirt is persistent, use a cloth soaked with water-diluted mild detergent and then wipe it with a dry cloth.

●Because the cable holders of the terminals could come loose, perform cable connection carefully and securely.

●Insufficient dissipation of heat from the unit may cause damage. Use the unit at a well-ventilated location. In particular, do not block the unitÕs cooling-fan ventilation opening.

●In a narrowband environment, for example, of dial-up connection, smooth running of MPEG4 images cannot be obtained. This is due to the product design, therefore not a defect.

●When this product is installed in an NAT environment, MPEG4 images cannot be viewed. This is due to the product design, therefore not a defect. (This product uses a network protocol called RTP for transmitting MPEG4 images. Generally, an NAT router cannot carry out NAT translation of RTP packets properly.)

●Certain hubs and switches equipped with SNMP functions have a broadcast or multicast control function. If the function is enabled, multicast images created by this product may not be viewed properly.

●To save electricity, turn off the power to the system when not in use.

●As local recording images are saved to the volatile memory of the product, the images are deleted if the power is turned off. (☞Page 33)
