See There When You Can't Be There™
Place this plug-and-play camera in your home, office, vacation home or
almost anywhere else you'd like to keep an eye on things, with no PC
required at the location. The camera can be viewed and controlled from a
standard Web browser, video display, or even a compatible cell phone or
PDA and requires no additional software for the PC that you're viewing
it on. All of the other required software, including control software
(TCP/UDP) and e-mail software (SMTP), is already inside the camera.
Bring Any Image Right Up Close
Equipped with a 42x zoom function (a 21x optical zoom and a 2x digital
zoom), the camera lets you zoom in and out in a total of 12 steps (10-step
optical zoom and 2-step digital zoom) to view objects that are close or
far away.
CCD Sensor for Enhanced Image Expression
This camera features a CCD (Charged Couple Device) for sharp, enhanced
image expression. The image refreshing speed (maximum) has been
increased to 30 images per second3 for smoother displays of moving
images.
Record Directly onto SD Cards
The camera features an SD Memory Card slot for recording images captured
by the network camera directly onto an SD Memory Card (sold separately).
Power up without a PC
Power over Ethernet (PoE) means you can use your camera without
connecting to a PC. Just plug your camera into a wall outlet, and both
the power and the data are transmitted over the same CAT5 wire. Plus,
each camera has a built-in Web server with IP address. To view the
camera's images on a PC, simply open a graphics-capable Web browser and
type in the cameras specified Internet address (password optional).
Control the Camera Remotely
Using a standard Web browser, video display, or even a compatible cell
phone or PDA, you can control the movement of the camera. There is 350
Pan (left & right) movement and 210 Tilt (up & down) movement available.
You can also assign a "Home Position" that allows you to return the
camera to a pre-designated shooting position. Up to eight shooting
positions can be registered in advance, so you can aim the camera
exactly where you want it. You can also click on the part of the image
you want to see, and automatically bring that part to the center of the
screen.
Sensor Recording and Image Alerts
With the built-in sensor, the camera can be set to record and/or notify
you when someone enters the room. It can even automatically move to a
preset location when triggered, just in case someone was viewing a
different part of the room.
Record Only What You Want to Record
The camera can be set to automatically record video at certain times and
certain speeds. In addition, with optional, external sensors attached to
the camera, it is possible for the camera to email4 or record when
triggered by motion, sound, light, timer, or even a push button. These
convenient functions eliminate your need to constantly check the image.
Create Your Own Free Web Address
The FREE viewnetcam.com service allows you to create a personal Web
address (e.g., http://bob.viewnetcam.com) at which your camera's live
image can be found on the Internet. Access your Panasonic Network Camera
live from virtually any Internet connection point around the world! Your
Web browser is the only software you'll need. Here's how the camera and
service works: special software embedded within your Panasonic Network
Camera gives your camera the ability to locate your unique Internet
address. No matter what kind of Internet connection you have or which
Internet provider you use, the viewnetcam.com service will keep your
camera's Internet address permanent. |
