Panasonic Color CCTV Camera Wv Cw334 Wv Cw364 Operating Instructions

Screw tightening
	 •	 The	screws	and	bolts	 must	 be	tightened	
with  an  appropriate  tightening  torque 
according  to  the  material  and  strength  of 
the installation area.
	 •	 Do	 not	use	 an	impact	 driver.	Failure	 to	
observe this may cause overtightening and 
consequently damage to the screws.  
	 •	 When	 a	screw	 is	tightened,	 make	the	
screw  at  a  right  angle  to  the  surface.  After 
tightening  the  screws  or  bolts,  perform 
visual check to ensure tightening is enough 
and there is no backlash.  
Do not remove or loosen the screws.
Do  not  remove  or  even  loosen  the  screws  (7 
pieces) on the rear of the camera. 
Otherwise, water exposure may cause damage 
or  malfunction  of  camera,  or  camera  dropping 
may result in injury.

    Turns  ON/OFF  the  day/night  mode,  adap-
tive black stretch, backlight compensation, 
and white balance.
      Simple day/night mode selector [D/N] 
for WV-CW334S:
ON:  Selects  the  black-white  mode  if  the 
picture  is  dark;  it  selects  the  color 
mode if the picture is bright enough.
OFF  (default):  Displays  the  color  picture  normally.
Note:
	 •	 The	simple	day/night	function	is	estab- lished by using the SENSE UP function for 
black-white images. The IR filter is 
secured.
      Day/night mode selector [D/N] for 
WV-CW364S:
ON:  Selects  the  black-white  mode  if  the 
picture  is  dark;  it  selects  the  color 
mode  if  the  picture  is  bright  enough. 
When set to ON, the camera switches 
from color to black-white images when 
the  ambient  brightness  (illuminance)  of 
the  camera  is  approximately  0.6  lx  or 
less.
OFF  (default):  Displays  the  color  picture  normally.
Note:
	 •	 To	 obtain	color	images,	 a	sufficient	 level	of	
illuminance (approximately 30  lx or more) is 
required.
	 •	 The	 switching	 illuminance	 level	varies	
depending on subjects and light sources.
	 •	 The	 switching	 illuminances	 described	
above  are  reference  values.  The  switching 
illuminance  shall  be  decided  based  on  the 
actual installation environment.

   Adaptive black stretch selector [B.S.]:
ON (default): Corrects the dark area of an 
object automatically to lighten it.
OFF: Does not compensate.
Note:
	 •	 When	 set	to	"ON",	 noise	may	be	increased	
in the dark area of the object.
    In  addition,  darkness  and  brightness  may 
be emphasized in the vicinity of the bound-
ary between the dark and bright areas.
      Backlight compensation selector 
[BLC]:
ON:  Compensates  the  background  auto-
matically if it is brighter than the object.
OFF  (default):  Uses  this  mode  when  the  front of the object is extremely bright.
Note:
	 •	 Under	 some	conditions,	 such	as	extremely	
strong  backlight,  the  desired  compensa-
tion effect may not be achieved even if the 
mode  is  set  to  ON  to  detect  the  backlight 
level.
    White balance selector [ATW/AWC]:
ATW  (default):  Activates  the  automatic 
color  temperature  tracking  mode.  The 
camera  continuously  measures  the 
color  temperature  of  the  light  source 
and  automatically  adjusts  the  white 
balance.  The  adjustment  of  the  color 
temperature ranges from approximate-
ly 2700 K to 6000 K.
AWC:  Activates  the  automatic  white  bal- ance  control  mode.  This  adjustment  is 
suitable  for  a  location  where  a  light 
source is stable. The adjustment of the 
color temperature ranges from approx-
imately 2000 K to 10000 K.
  !4  Monitor output connector (RCA)
    Connects  the  LCD  monitor  and  such 
devices for checking images.

Preparations
When  installing  the  camera  on  a  wall  or  a  ceiling,  there  are  two  methods  as  specified  below.  
(+ Next page)
	 •	 Using	a	two-gang	junction	box
	 •	 Using	the	mounting	base
Refer  to  all  work  related  to  the  installation  of  this  product  to  qualified  service  personnel  or  system 
installer. 
	 •	 The	mounting	base	is	supplied.	Use	the	screws	supplied	with	this	product.	
Important:
	 •	 Prepare	 the	mounting	 screw	according	 to	the	 material	 of	the	 area	 where	 the	camera	 attach-
ment (accessory) is to be installed. In this case, wood screws and nails should not be used. For 
mounting  a  camera  on  a  concrete  ceiling,  use  an  anchor  bolt  (M4)  or  an  AY  plug  bolt  (M4)  for 
securing. 
    (Recommended tightening torque M4: 1.6 N·m {1.18 lbf·ft})
	 •	 When	 using	the	provided	 camera	attachment,	 make	sure	that	either	 of	the	 arrow	 marks	 faces	
upward. 
	 •	 Required	pull-out	capacity	of	a	single	screw/bolt	is	196	N	{44.06	lbf}	or	more.	
	 •	 If	 a	ceiling	 board	such	as	plaster	 board	is	too	 weak	 to	support	 the	total	 weight,	 the	area	 shall	
be sufficiently reinforced. 
	 •	 When	 using	an	optional	 mounting	 bracket,	refer	to	the	 operating	 instructions	 of	the	 bracket	 in	
use. 
The mounting conditions of the camera mount bracket are described as follows:

camera.

Using a two-gang junction box
	 •	 When	the	camera	 is	installed	 using	the	two-gang	 junction	box,	mount	 the	camera	 attachment	
(accessory) to the embedded box installed on the wall or ceiling as a \
first step.  
Note:
  •  For wall mounting: 
    Installation  shall  be  performed  in  such  a  manner  that  "MTOP"  of  the  camera  attachment  faces 
upward. 
  •  For ceiling mounting: 
    The front side (model number indication face) of the camera shall be aligned in the direction of 
the arrow in "
