							-5- This Color CCTV Camera is a video surveillance device
that incorporates a 1/4-type {1/4} CCD, a 30x zoom
lens, preset and pan and tilt capabilities in a dome
configuration.
■Super Dynamic 3 3
(SUPER-D 3 3
)
SUPER-D 3can capture clear images of subjects
whose illumination is extremely different (page 28). 
■Built-in Automatic Tracking Function
A pan, tilt, and zoom-linked automatic tracking function
ensures smooth auto tracking operations. 
A mask feature helps to reduce the chance of error by
letting you mask specific parts of the image from the
detection area.
■New DSP for High Sensitivity
A new noise reduction system lowers minimum
illuminance to 0.5 lux{fc} in the color mode and 0.04
lux{fc} in the black and white mode. 
■Auto Night time Switching to Black
and White Mode 
The camera can be configured to switch to the black
and white mode automatically under low light condi-
tions for clear images, even at night. 
■Digital Flip 
Normally, a camera needs to stop when it points
straight down during a tilt operation. With digital flip,
however, the camera is able to tilt from 0° to 180° in a
single motion. This makes it possible to track subjects
passing directly under the camera more smoothly. 
■Privacy Zone Function 
The privacy zone function can mask specific areas of
the scene from view. 
■Patrol Function 
The patrol function can store manual camera move-
ment routines for automatic playback. For example,
you can set the camera the movements of the people
to be monitored, by replaying the stored parameters
complicated move-ments are done automatically. 
■Camera Position Memory
The system can be configured with up to 256 camera
positions. A particular camera position can be selected
and viewed by entering the applicable preset number
on the system controller 10-key pad. 
■Motion Detection 
The system can be configured so any motion on the
monitor screen during surveillance causes output of an
alarm signal. 
This function can be used to structure a system with a
VCR that records images of nighttime intruders. 
■Internal Heating Fan
Prevents snow and frost from building up on the dome
cover.*1
■Waterproofing Specifications
Outdoor enclosure based on IP66*2of IEC60529
standard.
*1 Does not operate in environments with ambient
temperatures under -40 °C {-40 °F}. In environments
over -40 °C {-40 °F} defrosting may not function if

							Precautions
1. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera.
To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or
covers.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Ask qualified service personnel for servicing.
2. Handle the camera with care.
Do not misuse the camera. Avoid striking, shaking,
etc. The camera could be damaged by improper
handling or storage.
3. Install the camera at a location that is able to
support its total weight.
Installing at a location that is not strong enough can
cause the camera to fall down or tip over. Be sure
to reinforce weak locations sufficiently before
installing the camera.
4. Use the fall-prevention wires to reduce the risk
of the camera falling down.
Do not detach the fall-prevention wire securing the
camera. Otherwise the camera could fall down,
causing injury to persons and damage to the
camera.5. Never aim the camera at the sun.
Whether or not the camera is in use , never aim it at
the sun or other extremely bright objects.
Otherwise, blooming or smear may be caused.
6. Never aim the camera at strong light sources for
an extended period of time.
A light source such as a spot light causes burn-in
on the display screen. Failure to observe this may
cause the image to become discolored due to
deterioration of the color filter in the CCD.
7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified
temperature, humidity or power source ratings.
Do not use the camera in an extreme environment
where high temperature or high humidity exists. Do
not place the camera near heat sources such as
radiators, stoves or other units that produce heat.
Use the camera under conditions where tempera-
ture is between –40 °C to +50 °C {–40 °F to 122 °F}
and humidity is below 90 %.
The input power source is 24 V AC 60 Hz.
-6- The cameras auto tracking function operates by using
image recognition. The client is responsible for
understanding and applying the following warnings
regarding installation and operation necessary to
prevent losses due to malfunction or lack of detection
as a result of unforeseeable aspects of the installation
area. 
• The cameras tracking function is for monitoring
unknown intruders. It is not suitable for locations
with large numbers of people such as intersections
or retail stores. Be sure to confirm this before
installing the camera.
• Be sure to set the height of the camera under the
detailed settings (page 41) of the auto-tracking
function.
• Install the camera in a horizontal configuration, with
the dome pointed downwards. 
• Install the camera securely so that it does not sway.
High resolution operation may reduce performance. 
• The camera cannot track well horizontally or directly
below itself, so avoid this type of installation. 
• Install the camera and adjust the view angle so that
people do not move vertically on the screen.
Vertical motion creates only small deviation on the
screen and may not be detected.
• Dirt or scratches on the dome cover make it difficult
to see the image which may reduce performance.
Periodically clean the dome cover. 
About the Auto-Tracking Function 
• Rain or snow on the dome cover may reduce
performance. Consider placing the camera under
eaves or some kind of cover. 
• Use the electronic sensitivity enhancement (page 29)
if using the camera at night (approximately 10 lx). 
• Use the detection area mask (page 42) to avoid
detection errors caused by the motion of trees or
traffic. 
• Auto-tracking may start for vehicles or other non-
human movements, however, this is not a
malfunction. Adjust the view angle or use detection
area masking (page 42). 
• Adjust the view angle or use detection area
masking (page 42) if there is strong back lighting,
neon lighting or other flashing lights, or reflection on
glass or the surface of a road in the image. 
• To detect people, adjust the view angle so that the
people are about 1/5 of the vertical height of the
screen. 
• Periodically replace consumable parts (page 7).
The pan, tilt and zoom functions operate in
unison to track moving subjects smoothly.

■Operating precautions
■What to do if OVER HEAT appears on the display.
This message indicates that the inside of the camera
has become extremely hot. 
Immediately turn off the camera and contact your
retailer. 
■What to do if WARM UP-PLEASE WAIT.** appears
on the display.
This message indicates that the inside of the camera is
cold. 
Please wait for a short time until the heating fan warms
up the inside of the camera. 
The countdown shown as the numbers in “**” in quotes
is a guideline of the time required. When the value
reaches “0” the inside of the camera is warm and the
on-screen display disappears. The camera is then
reset and operation is normal. ■Note the following to ensure long-term trouble-
free operation
Long operation under high temperatures and high
humidity can cause components to deteriorate and
shorten camera life. 
Make sure the camera is installed in a location where it
is not directly exposed to heat from a radiator, heater,
etc. 
■About the Camera Cleaning Function
Prolonged use can lead to noise on the monitor and
divergence of preset positions. 
If such conditions persist even after you perform
camera cleaning (page 40), use the special setup
menu to execute the “REFRESH” operation (page 48). 
■Do not allow anything to forcefully hit the dome
cover
Anything hitting the dome cover may damage the
camera or cause leaks. 
■CCD color filter burn-in
Intense light concentrated on one spot for a long
period can cause deterioration of the CCD internal
color filters, and discoloration of the affected part. Even
if the camera position is changed from a fixed position,
the discoloration at the previous location of the
concentrated light will remain on the screen. 
■Do not point the camera at a strong light source. 
Intense light such as that produced by a spotlight
concentrated on one part of the screen can cause
blooming (rainbow around the strong light) or smearing
(vertical stripes above and below the strong light). 
■Pictures directly below the camera 
A circular object appears in the center of the picture, it
is caused by the shape of the dome cover and is not a
malfunction. 
■Do not aim the camera at the same object for a
long time.
Burn-in of an image may be caused on the fluorescent
screen of CRT.
■Handle the camera carefully.
Do not drop the camera, or subject it to strong impact
or vibration. Such conditions create the risk of
malfunction.
Smearing Bright SubjectBlooming
8. Do not install the camera near the air outlet of an
air conditioner.
The lens may become cloudy due to condensation
if the camera is used under the following
conditions.
• Rapid temperature fluctuations by switching the air
conditioner on and off.
• Rapid temperature fluctuations due to frequent door
opening and closing.
• Use in an environment where eyeglasses become
foggy.
• Use in a room filled with cigarette smoke or dust.
If the lens becomes cloudy due to condensation,
remove the dome cover and wipe all moist surfaces
with a soft cloth.
9. Consumables
Parts having contacts such as the lens-drive
motors, cooling fan motor and slip-rings inside the
camera are subject to wear with time. Please ask
the nearest service center about replacement and
maintenance of such parts.
10. Do not aim the camera at the same object for a
long time.
Burn-in of an image may be caused on the
fluorescent screen of CRT.
11. Self-diagnosis Function
If the camera continues operating abnormally for 30
seconds or more due to such an accident as
external noise, the camera will automatically reset
its power. In the case it happens frequently, check
if there would be any environmental cause.

							-8- ■Consumables
Parts having contacts such as the lens-drive motors,
cooling fan motor and slip-rings inside the camera are
subject to wear with time. Contact the nearest service
dealer about replacement and maintenance of such
parts.
■Cleaning the camera
Turn off the camera and wipe it with a soft cloth. If the
camera is very dirty, wipe it off gently with a soft cloth
moistened with a weak solution of water and a neutral
kitchen detergent. Wring all excess liquid from the
cloth before wiping the camera. Next, wipe off all
remaining solution with a soft, dry cloth. 
Contact a qualified service person before cleaning the
lenses. (Lenses do not move during cleaning.)
A dirty dome cover or lens causes deterioration of
picture quality. Use lens cleaning paper (like the type
available for cleaning eyeglasses or a camera lens) to
clean the lens. 
The dome cover is particularly susceptible to damage.
Gently wipe it with a soft cloth. 
■Downloading (saving) or uploading (recovering)
camera setting information
Camera setting information that can be downloaded to
the system controller etc, includes existing preset
position settings and menu settings. However, the
following items are not included. 
• Patrol function (page 37) 
• Area title function (page 39) 
• Blemish compensation pattern (page 47)
• RS485 settings (page 20) 
• Password settings (page 50) 
Be sure the camera is not moving and aimed at
something that moves very little (like a wall) before
downloading camera preset data to the system
controller etc. or uploading downloaded data to the
camera.
Uploading of WV-CW974 preset data to other models
(e.g. WV-CW864, WV-CW864A) may cause an error
and failure of the uploading process.
■Self-diagnosing Function
If abnormal operation due to external noise or some
other reason continues for more than 30 seconds, the
camera will automatically reset itself and restore
normal operation. Reset operation the same
initialization routine that is performed when the camera
is turned on. If the reset is required too often, it could
mean that the camera is installed in a location where
there is a large amount of external noise. This can
cause malfunction of the camera, so you should
contact a qualified service person or system installer
as soon as possible.
■Combining devices 
There is a limit to the number of devices that can be
put together in one configuration. Check the
specifications and outer dimensions before hooking up
the devices. For more information, see the “Panasonic
CCTV System Catalogue” or consult your retailer. 
■Installation precautions
■Be sure to perform installation work in accor-
dance with proper technical standards for electric 
installation.
■Camera Installation Location 
Discuss the installation location for the camera with
your retailer, and select a wall, ceiling or other location
that is strong enough to support the installation.
■About ceiling mounts and brackets
Bolts for mounting the ceiling mount Attachment Pipe
to a ceiling or wall are not provided.
You need to purchase them separately in accordance
with the materials and strength of the place you are
installing the camera.
• Check the installation surface, and the anchors and
bolts to be used for sufficient strength.
• Gypsum board and wood surfaces tend to be
weak, and should not be used as an installation
surface. If use of such a surface for installation is
unavoidable, be sure to take adequate measures to
reinforce the surface.
■Tightening the Screws
• Screws should be tightened sufficiently in
accordance with the materials and structure of the
installation location. 
• Do not use an impact driver to drive screws. Doing
so can damage the screws.
• Drive the screws as straight as possible. After
tightening the screws, visually inspect them to
make sure there is no unevenness and that each
screw is tight.
■This camera is designed for use in a hanging con-
figuration only. Using it in an upright or inclined
configuration can cause malfunction and shorten
the life of the camera.
■Install the camera in a horizontal configuration,
with the dome pointed downwards. 
■Be sure to remove this apparatus if it is not in use.
■Never install or use the camera in the following
locations. 
• Near a swimming pool or other areas where
chemicals are used
• Food preparation areas and other locations where
there are large amounts of steam vapor and oil, in
flammable atmospheres, other special environments
• Areas where radiation, X-rays, strong electric
waves, or magnetism is generated 
• At sea, in coastal areas, or in areas where corrosive
gas is being generated 
• Areas outside of the allowable ambient operating
temperature range (-40 °C to +50 °C {-40 °F to 122
°F})

							-9- • In a motor vehicle, on a boat, or other areas subject
to strong vibration (This camera is not designed for
use in a vehicle.) 
• Near an air conditioner outlet or any areas subject to
sudden changes in temperature. (Such conditions
can cause clouding and condensation formation on
the dome cover.) 
■Remove the protective sheet from the dome cover
after the installation work is complete.
■Wiring power to the camera
The camera does not have a power switch. During the
electrical work, configure the power supply to the
camera so it can be turned on and off.
■Noise interference considerations 
When using a power line that is greater than 120 V AC
and wiring that is longer than 1 meter, wiring should be
routed using a separate metal conduit. (The metal
conduit must be earth grounded.) 
Important: 
•Before setting up the camera for a configuration
where the cameras RS485 data port is used for
camera control (pan, tilt, etc.) by the system
controller, the cameras DIP switches must be
configured to specify the unit number and
communication parameters. (page 13) 
If DIP switch setting is not performed, the
system controller control will not be possible
and camera setup will have to be performed
again. Be sure to check the DIP switch settings
before setting up the camera.
Note:If you need to connect a ground, be sure to do it
before you connect the main power. Also, when removing
the ground, be sure to disconnect the main power. 
■Beware of high humidity. 
If the camera is installed when humidity is very high,
moisture may collect in the camera and cause the
dome to become foggy. If the dome becomes foggy,
remove it when the humidity is low and eliminate the
moisture inside the camera, and then replace the
dome. (page 6, 7)
■About the heater 
The camera comes with a built-in heater so it can be
used in cold regions. The heater automatically turns on
when the internal temperature goes below 10 °C {50
°F}. However, snow and frost that collect on the dome
cover may not melt if the temperature falls below -40
°C {-40 °F}. Care needs to be taken regarding the
ambient and internal temperature when using the
camera in cold regions.
■About effects on image quality
The camera does not have a wiper. If the camera is
installed in the following conditions image quality may
deteriorate or the image may be invisible. (1) In the rain
The picture may be hard to see if the wind blows
rain onto the dome cover while it is raining. 
(2) In the snow
When it snows, snow may collect on the dome
cover and block some of the picture. (The amount
of snow that collects on the dome cover depends
on the quality and amount of the snow.) 
(3) Effects of dust and automobile exhaust 
Airborne dust and automobile exhaust, from the
location where the camera is installed, may cause
dirt to build up on the dome cover and reduce the
quality of the picture. 
■Important hints to help with the installation 
• A self-cleaning function is activated (PAN/TILT/
ZOOM/FOCUS) when the camera is turned on. 
• There is a limit to the number of devices that can be
put together in one configuration. Check the ratings
and outer dimensions before hooking up the
devices.
