they snap in place.
Cautions:
•Shrinking the cable-entry seal is a one-time proce-
dure. Do not shrink the cable-entry seal until it has
been ascertained that the unit is functioning.
•CONNECT THIS TO 24V AC CLASS 2 POWER
SUPPLY ONLY.
How to Assemble the Cable with the Accessory

■Setup with the Provided
Panasonic IP Setup Software
Set up the network of the camera using the Panasonic
IP Setup software included on the CD-ROM provided
with the camera.
Note:If a firewall (including software) exists, allow
access to all UDP ports. Otherwise, it is impossible
to use the Panasonic IP Setup software.
In the English folder included in the Setup folder, dou-
ble-click IP setup.exe.
The Panasonic IP Setup starts up.
The MAC address and the IP address of the connected
camera will be displayed. (Click the [REFRESH] button
if they are not displayed.)
1. Click the MAC address/IP address of the camera to
be set up.
2. Click the [NETWORK SETUP] button.
Notes:
•When two or more cameras are connected, the
MAC addresses and the IP addresses of all
the connected cameras will be displayed.
•The Panasonic IP Setup software can recog-
nize only those cameras in the same subnet.
•Pressing the [REFRESH] button will display the
updated MAC addresses and IP addresses of
all the connected cameras that are in the same
subnet.
The setup window appears.3. Set parameters for each item.

er.
Notes:
•If DHCP is enabled although there is no DHCP
server in the network, check Disable for
DHCP in the Panasonic IP Setup window.
•If DHCP is enabled, and the DHCP server has
not assigned an IP address yet, 0.0.0.0 is dis-
played for the IP address. The IP address of
the camera will be displayed after the DHCP
server assigns one to the camera. 
7. Click the [SET] button after completing the setting.
Important:It takes around 10 seconds for settings to
take effect after the [SET] button has been
