SD memory card
[SD memory card]
Select “Use” or “Not use” to determine whether or not to use the SD memory card.
•Default: Use
IMPORTANT
•Select “Not use” when operating without an SD memory card.
•Before removing the SD memory card from the camera, it is necessary to select “Not use” first. The
recorded data may be corrupted if the SD memory card is removed when “Use” is selected.
•When an SD memory card is inserted when “Use” is selected, data will be saved in accordance with
the setting of “Save trigger”.
•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 74) in advance.
•When the image refresh interval is short, notification/recording timing or interval may become incorrect.
Notification/recording may also not be performed correctly as configured when multiple users are
receiving images. In this case, set the refresh interval longer.
•There are limited times to overwrite on an SD memory card. When having a high frequency of
overwriting, the lifetime of the SD memory card may become shorter.
•A lifetime of an SD memory card should be influenced by the number of the image files stored and log
savings on the SD memory card. Selecting “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” for “Recording format” can reduce
the number of files to be stored on the SD memory card.
•If the data writing speed goes down after data is repeatedly written on an SD memory card, we
recommend replacing the SD memory card.
[Recording format]
Select “JPEG”/“H.264(1)”/“H.264(2)” for the video encoding format of image data to be recorded on the SD
memory card.
•JPEG: Records still image data.
•H.264(1): Records video data (H.264(1)) in the MP4 video encoding format. Audio will not be recorded.
The data is recorded in accordance with the settings of “H.264(1)” on the [JPEG/H.264] tab of the “Image/
Audio” page.
•H.264(2): Records video data (H.264(2)) in the MP4 video encoding format. Audio will not be recorded.
The data is recorded in accordance with the settings of “H.264(2)” on the [JPEG/H.264] tab of the “Image/
Audio” page.
•Default: JPEG
Note
•When recording the same data as the “Live” pages, it is recommended that the same settings be
configured for both the “Live” pages and “Recording format”. When recording data other than the
“Live” pages (for example, to reduce the data volume by lowering the image quality and image
resolution), select image data other than the “Live” page from “Recording format”, and configure the
settings for recording video data.
•When “H.264(1)” is selected, the settings for “H.264(1)” on the [JPEG/H.264] tab of the “Image/
Audio” page will be changed to the settings for “H.264(1) & recording”.
When “H.264(2)” is selected, the settings for “H.264(2)” on the [JPEG/H.264] tab of the “Image/
Audio” page will be changed to the settings for “H.264(2) & recording”.
•When using the SD memory recording function of a Panasonic network disk recorder, select “JPEG”
for “Recording format”.
•When the setting of “Recording format” is changed between “JPEG” and “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)”,
format the SD memory card. (®page 63)
