General Panasonic IP Camera Notes

• If the frame rate is set to a value larger than the maximum value for a camera, the
frame rate defaults to the maximum value.
• Frame rates are rounded up to the next value listed in the tables. For example, if the
requested frame rate is 8 frames per second (fps), the camera provides 10 fps.
• Because of a limitation regarding the number of users viewing feeds from the
camera, the frame rate requested might not match what the camera can supply at
that time. The camera automatically logs off users who are not actively using the
feeds, which then increases the total throughput for remaining users.
• Frame rates could be reduced as quality settings are increased.
• All camera-specific Panasonic drivers have been replaced by a single Panasonic i-Pro
driver in DSAdmin.
• To capture images larger than 2 MP, you must install Integral IP camera driver 6.7.0.5
or later and then Megapixel Support for DS Server/VAU 4.1. To obtain a copy of all
necessary software versions, go to

• To view images larger than 2 MP, you must install Megapixel Support for DS Client/
Admin 4.1 and DS ControlPoint 6.5.1.28 or later. To obtain a copy of all necessary
software versions, go to
