    							Advanced setting[Zoom with auto track]
    Select the tracking zoom control from the following.
    Off:  Zoom control is not performed.
    On:  Zoom control is performed.
    Default:  On
    [Object size]
    Select an object size from the following.
    Small(1/4 of the image):  The tracking target is enlarged to about 1/4 the size (lengthwise) of the monitor
    screen.
    Middle(1/2 of the image):  The tracking target is enlarged to about 1/2 the size (lengthwise) of the monitor
    screen.
    Large(3/4 of the image):  The tracking target is enlarged to about 3/4 the size (lengthwise) of the monitor
    screen.
    Default:  Small(1/4 of the image)
    Note
    •The sizes described here are only a guide. Depending on the environment conditions and the tracking
    conditions the displayed size may be different from the expected size.
    • Increasing the display size of the tracking target reduces the tracking capabilities.
    [Sensitivity]
    Select the tracking sensitivity from the following.
    High/Middle/Low
    Default:  Middle
    Note
    •Reducing the sensitivity can help reduce false detections such as when a tree is swaying, but it will
    also reduce the tracking capabilities. On the other hand, increasing the sensitivity increases the tracking
    capabilities but also increases false detections. Match the settings according to where the camera is
    used.
    [Auto track duration time]
    Select the time that tracking will be forced to stop from after it started from the following.
    Off(Unlimited)/10s/20s/30s/40s/50s/1min/2min/3min/5min/10min
    Default:  Off(Unlimited)
    Note
    •The camera will stop in the position it is at when the auto track duration time expires. To return to auto
    mode, set the self return, and after tracking is finished, the self return time is counted and the camera
    returns to auto mode.
    [Lost object search]
    Select the operations to be performed when the tracking loses the target from the following.
    Off:  Tracking stops at the position that it lost the target.
    On(w/o zoom-out):  If the target is lost, tracking starts looking for new movement and if it finds movement it
    continues auto tracking.
    On(w/zoom-out):  If the target is lost, the camera zooms out and tracking starts looking for new movement, if
    it finds movement it continues auto tracking.
    Default:  On(w/zoom-out)

    Click [
    ] of “Area No.” and select an area number (1-4) from the pull-down menu. An asterisk (*) next to the
    area number indicates that the area has already been learned. When “On” (when there is an alarm area
    intrusion) is selected with “Auto track alarm”, the alarm area will become active.
    [Area No. notification]
    When “Panasonic alarm protocol notification >>” is clicked, the [Notification] tab of the “Alarm” page will be
    displayed. ( ®page 117)
    Note
    •The alarm area cannot be configured separately for each preset position. The configured alarm area
    is active for all preset areas.
    Detection mask area [Area select]
    Click [
    ] of “Area No.” and select an area number (1-4) from the pull-down menu. An asterisk (*) next to the
    area number indicates that the area has already been learned. By setting a mask for shooting areas  (the screen)
    that you do not want to detect movement in, false detections can be reduced.
    Note
    •By setting a mask for shooting areas (the screen) that have objects that can cause false detections
    such as swaying trees, roads (where cars pass through), or level surfaces (areas that cause light
    reflection), false detections can be reduced.
    • Mask areas cannot be configured separately for each preset position. The specified area is active for
    all the preset positions.
    IMPORTANT
    •During auto tracking, if the tracking target enters the masked area, tracking will continue unchanged.
    Note that the mask area will not be active in this situation.

    IMPORTANT
    •In the following situations, targets may not be able to be tracked, or false detections may occur.
    – when there is little contrast between the subject and the background
    – when the front glass is dirty or wet
    – when there are large changes to the lighting intensity
    – when there are many moving objects other than the subject
    – when there is a change to the axis of the camera’s lens
    – when the subject moves directly underneath the camera
    – when there is harsh flickering
    – when there are reflections from light entering the front glass due to reflections from a window or
    road, or from a backlight
    – when the target is hidden behind a utility pole or other objects
    – when the subject passes by other moving objects

    • In no event shall we be liable to any consequential inconvenience, or loss or damage, arising out of
    the settings or results of the Auto tracking system.
    • We recommend that you use this setting under the following setting conditions to improve the detection
    accuracy.
    – set the size of the tracking target to over 1/5 of the monitoring screen (lengthwise)
    Procedure to setup auto track cooperation If 2 or more cameras that support the auto track function are used, tracking of targets can be coordinated
    between cameras. (Auto track cooperation setting)
    For example, the procedure for getting Camera 2 (IP address: 192.168.0.12) to take over auto tracking from
    Camera 1 (192.168.0.11 ) when the tracking target enters into alarm area No.1 during auto tracking as shown
    below, is explained here.
    1. Set an alarm area to Camera 1 in the area where you want to perform auto track cooperation.
    Display the “Auto track setting” page.
    With “Auto track alarm” select “On(In preset alarm area)” and click the [Set] button.
    Select 1 from the “Area No.” pull-down menu of “Area select” in “Alarm area”.
    While monitoring images, perform the pan/tilt/zoom, and then set the alarm area.
    Click the [Set] button.
    2. On Camera 2, configure the preset position for received notification commands. (Configure the preset
    position so that alarm area No. 1 enters the screen as configured in step 1.)
    Display the “Preset position” setting page. ( ®page 71)
    Select a preset number that you want set from the “Preset” pull-down menu.
    While monitoring images, perform the pan/tilt/zoom, and then set the preset position.
    Click the [Set] button.
    3. Set Camera 1 (IP address: 192.168.0.11) to notify commands.
    Display the “Notification” screen from the “Alarm” page. ( ®page 117)
    From “Panasonic alarm protocol”, set “Panasonic alarm protocol” to “On” and click the [Set] button.
    From “Destination of notification”, check the “Alarm” checkbox of “Address 1” (any notification
    destination address can be selected), and enter 192.168.0.12 in “Destination IP address”.
    Set “Auto track cooperation” to “On”, and select “1” for the alarm area number.

    Direction/Angle setting
    [North point setting]
    If “Direction display” is selected for “Camera position display”, one of the eight directions will be indicated
    instead of the preset position title when the camera is not at the preset position.

    It is possible to enhance the image quality of the specified range within a shooting area (image).
    It is also possible to moderate the image data size by lowering the image quality of other areas.
    The VIQS setting is available only for H.264 images.
    VIQS can be set to preset position numbers 1 to 8 as well as settings other than preset positions, and up to 8
    VIQS areas can be set for each preset position.
    To check the image after configuring VIQS, when H.264 images are selected under “Stream”, you can check
