SD memory card setup

[SD memory card]

Select "Use" or "Not use" to determine whether or not to use the SD memory card.

Default: Not use

Important:

Before removing the SD memory card from the cam- era, it is necessary to select "Not use" first.

After inserting the SD memory card, it is necessary to select "Use" to use the SD memory card.

When playing or downloading images saved on the SD memory card, it is necessary to select "ON" for "Save logs" on the [LOG] tab (page 16) in advance.

When the configured image refresh interval is high, timing or interval of notification or recording may become inexact and notification or recording may not carried out as configured when images are transmitted by multiple users. (page 41) If this happened, set the image refresh interval lower.

There are limited times to overwrite on an SD mem- ory card. When frequently overwritten, it may be at the end of product life. It is recommended to replace the SD memory card.

[Notification of remaining]

When the "E-mail notification" function or the "Panasonic alarm protocol" function is used to provide notification of the remaining space of the SD memory

card, select a level to be notified at from the following. 50 %/20 %/10 %/5 %/2 %

Default: 50 %

Note:

Notification will be provided each time the remaining space of the SD memory card reached the values above.

For example, notification will be provided each time the remaining space reaches 50%, 20%, 10%, 5% and 2% when "50%" is selected. Notification may not always be made at the very moment when the remaining space of the SD memory card has reached each value.

[Save trigger]

Select a trigger to save images on the SD memory card from the following.

FTP error: Saves images when images have failed to transmit to the FTP server by the FTP periodic trans- mission function.

Alarm input: Saves images at an alarm occurrence.

Manual: Saves images manually. (Operating instruc- tions)

Default: FTP error

Notes:

Select "FTP error" when images are to be transmit- ted to the FTP server at an alarm occurrence.

When using the DHCP function (page 53), images will not be saved on the SD memory card until an IP address is assigned regardless of the "Save trigger" setting.

[Overwrite]

Determine whether or not to overwrite when the SD memory card becomes full.

This setting is available only when "Manual" is selected for "Save trigger".

ON: Overwrites when the SD memory card becomes full. (The oldest image is the first to be overwritten.)

OFF: Stops saving images on the SD memory card when the SD memory card becomes full.

Default: OFF

WV-NW964, WV-NS954 specifications

The Panasonic WV-NW964 and WV-NS954 are advanced network cameras designed for high-performance surveillance in various applications. Both models offer a remarkable combination of features, technologies, and characteristics that make them ideal for security monitoring in both indoor and outdoor environments.

The WV-NW964 is a high-definition network camera equipped with a 1/3-inch progressive scan CCD sensor, delivering exceptional image quality with resolutions up to 1280x960 pixels. It is particularly well-suited for situations where clarity and detail are paramount, such as in retail spaces or critical infrastructure facilities. The camera supports H.264 compression technology, which allows for efficient video streaming while maintaining high image quality. This feature is particularly useful for reducing bandwidth requirements and storage costs without compromising surveillance effectiveness.

On the other hand, the WV-NS954 is a PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) network camera that provides extensive flexibility in monitoring wide areas. With its 3x optical zoom lens, it enables users to focus on specific subjects or areas of interest without loss of detail. The camera's ability to pan 360 degrees and tilt up to 90 degrees allows for comprehensive coverage of large spaces, making it ideal for applications such as parking lots, open-air venues, and warehouses.

Both cameras are equipped with advanced features such as digital noise reduction and wide dynamic range (WDR) technology, ensuring clear images in varying lighting conditions. The WDR feature is particularly beneficial in scenarios where backlighting can obscure details, allowing for better visibility of individuals or objects even in challenging environments. Additionally, the cameras support multiple streaming formats and resolutions, providing flexibility in how video feeds are accessed and managed across different network systems.

With built-in motion detection and event-triggered recording capabilities, both cameras enhance security by providing alerts when unusual activity is detected. Users can customize alert settings based on specific needs, ensuring efficient and timely response to potential security threats. Furthermore, both models are designed with robust IP66-rated weatherproofing, making them suitable for outdoor deployment in various weather conditions without the risk of damage.

In summary, the Panasonic WV-NW964 and WV-NS954 network cameras deliver outstanding performance through their advanced imaging technologies and versatile functionalities. With features tailored for high-quality surveillance, efficient data management, and user-friendly operation, they are essential tools for enhancing security in a variety of applications.
