Due to the difference in file formats, the indication of remaining capacity of the SD memory card differs between the cases when “JPEG” is selected and when “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”.

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, the following settings in “H.264 recording”; Image capture size, Frame rate, Control time period, Max bit rate, Image quality, and Refresh interval will be read from the settings in “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)”.

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, the settings of the following functions may be corrected.

When “Best effort” is selected for “Transmission priority”, “Frame rate” is set.

When “High” or “Middle” is selected for “Burst tolerance level”, “Low” is set.

When “2s”, “3s”, “4s” or “5s” is selected for “Refresh interval”, “1s” is set.

When “3072kbps”, “4096kbps”, “6144kbps”, “8192kbps”, “10240kbps”, “12288kbps” or “14336kbps” is selected for “Max bit rate”, “2048kbps” is set.

When the selection for “Recording format” is changed to “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)”, the setting of “Save logs” (the [Log] tab on the “Basic” page page 74) is changed together.

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, alarm images are saved in accordance with the settings of “Pre alarm” and “Post alarm (recording) duration” on the [Alarm] tab of the “Alarm” page.

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, the name of the saved file will be given automatically.

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, the number of users that can access the camera may be reduced.

When “Image capture mode” is selected for “3 mega pixel [4:3]”, “H.264(2)” is unavailable.

Common

[Remaining capacity notification]

When the E-mail notification function or the Panasonic alarm protocol function is used to provide notification of the remaining capacity 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 capacity of the SD memory card reached the values above.

For example, notification will be provided each time the remaining capacity reaches 50%, 20%, 10%, 5% and 2% when “50%” is selected. Notification may not always be made at the very moment when the remaining capacity 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 image transmission function. Available only for JPEG images.

Alarm input: Saves images at an alarm occurrence.

Manual: Saves images manually.

Schedule: Saves images in accordance with the settings for “Schedule” (page 184). Available only for H.264 images.

Default: FTP error

Note

When “H.264(1)” or “H.264(2)” is selected for “Recording format”, “FTP error” is unavailable.

Select “FTP error” when images are to be transmitted to the FTP server at an alarm occurrence.

Panasonic has made significant strides in the surveillance camera industry with its WV-SF538E, WV-SF549E, WV-SP508, WV-SF538, and WV-SW558 models. These cameras cater to various security needs, offering cutting-edge technology and robust features that enhance surveillance capabilities across diverse environments.

The WV-SF538E and WV-SF549E are part of Panasonic's acclaimed i-PRO series, designed for superior image quality and reliability. Both models boast a 1080p Full HD resolution, ensuring clear and detailed imagery even in challenging lighting conditions. With their advanced Intelligent Auto technology, these cameras automatically adjust settings such as focus, exposure, and white balance, optimizing the video feed in real-time for enhanced visibility.

Another notable aspect of these models is their Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) feature, which enables the cameras to handle scenes with both bright and dark areas. This is particularly beneficial for environments with contrasting lighting conditions, such as entrances or parking lots. Additionally, they are equipped with a 20x optical zoom lens, allowing operators to zoom in on subjects without losing image quality, thereby providing flexibility in surveillance.

The WV-SP508, a PTZ camera, takes this flexibility a step further with its pan and tilt capabilities. This model is particularly well-suited for large areas, allowing operators to monitor extensive spaces with ease. Its high sensitivity in low light ensures that the camera delivers quality imaging even after sunset, maintaining security around the clock.

On the other hand, the WV-SF538 and WV-SW558 are compact dome cameras that combine aesthetics with performance. The WV-SW558 features a weather-resistant design, making it ideal for outdoor use. Both models offer enhanced security features like Motion Detection and Face Detection, aiding in proactive surveillance and incident detection.

All these models are integrated with advanced video analytics and can be easily connected to a network, allowing for remote monitoring and management. The cameras support various compression formats, including H.265, which enables efficient storage and bandwidth savings.

Overall, Panasonic's WV-SF538E, WV-SF549E, WV-SP508, WV-SF538, and WV-SW558 cameras present a formidable combination of performance, reliability, and advanced technology. These models are designed to meet the demanding needs of modern surveillance, providing users with high-quality images and proactive security solutions.
