*1 This varies depending on the subject, image quality, network environment, PC performance, etc.
*2 The image update speed may decrease when favor-motion mode is set, when images are recorded onto an SD Memory Card, and when IPsec is
used, as well as due to the network environment and PC performance.

A Wide Range of Camera Control Functions

The BB-HCM311’s high-speed pan and tilt functions
offer a maximum rotation speed of 80°/sec. These
functions can be operated from a PC or cell phone to
quickly change the camera direction. Using the built-in
alarm function and a commercially available external
sensor, the camera can also be automatically pointed
to a specified direction when the sensor is activated.
The camera is equipped with the following control
functions for easy, effective monitoring in the desired
direction.
The Alarm-Controlled Image Transfer function uses a
commercially available external Sensor or switch and
sends the image only when there is an action such as
turning on the light or opening the door. The Timer-
Controlled Image Transfer function automatically
transmits images according to the set time zone and
the day of the week. These convenient functions
eliminate your need to constantly check the image.
IPsec is a technology used to encrypt data packets in
order to prevent eavesdropping by third parties. When
combined with a conventional authentication function
based on user names and passwords, IPsec offers
enhanced security.

• Click & Center

When the mouse button is clicked at a location on the
image, the camera moves so that the image is shown
with the selected location at the center.

• External Output Control

This provides ON/OFF operation of an externally
connected device. For example, it can be used to turn
on a light when the surrounding area becomes dark or
to turn on a buzzer in case of an emergency.

• Pan and Tilt Movement

• Preset

This function lets you preset the camera direction.
You can use it to view the image captured from the
preset camera position with one-touch operation.
Use of the built-in microphone and a separately
purchased amp-equipped speaker enables two-way
voice communication (transceiver system)*2 between
the network camera and a PC used to monitor the
camera image. Voice transmission and reception can
be switched easily from the PC used to monitor the
image. For example, it allows people in a head office to
provide instructions or messages to people on a sales
floor while observing the image on their PC.

Our new network cameras allow the use of a virtually
unlimited number of IP addresses*3 by supporting
IPv6, a next-generation protocol. The IPv4/IPv6 dual-
stack feature enables you to use IPv4 at the present
and switch over to IPv6 in the future.
*1 This logo mark is issued by the IPv6 Ready Logo Program Committee, an IPv6 promotion group established mainly by the IPv6 Forum.
*2 This function can be used with a PC only. It cannot be used with a cell phone. To hear the voice transmitted from the PC, a commercially available
speaker with a built-in amp must be installed. The transceiver system does not allow simultaneous transmission and reception of voices.
The BB-HCM311 may require a version upgrade to operate in the IPv6 environment.
For the latest information, visit Panasonic's support Web site (http://panasonic.co.jp/pcc/products/en/netwkcam/).
*3 An IP address is a unique number assigned to each user so that the user can be identified on the Internet.
*4 IPsec is an IP security protocol for data encryption standardized by IETF, an international community devoted to the standardization of Internet
specifications.

IPv6-Ready

*When e-mail function is used to transfer images or messages, e-mail
transmission may not be possible in some cases due to the mail server
authentication system (SMTP authentication, etc.) used by your
Internet service provider.
*The image transfer functions can be used only with a PC. With a cell
phone, only the e-mail transmission function can be used.
