Memo :
● The above PC specifications are guides for
smooth use of the applications, and not a
guarantee of their operation.
● Depending on the condition of use, applications
may not run smoothly even when the user’s
computer meets the specification requirements.
● Using a computer for which its performance
does not meet the requirements may cause the
JPEG playback frame rate to deteriorate. In
addition, it also causes delay in the MPEG4
playback images, and may result in interruption
in playback.
● To make use of the built-in MPEG4 Viewer of
VN-V686WPU, install “ffdshow” that is open
source codec. You can download “ffdshow” from
the Internet.
Maintenance and operating
environment
ⅷ This product is specially designed to be mounted on
walls. Be sure to place the camera head horizontally.
The product will not work properly if it is tilted.
ⅷ Do not place this product in the following
environments.
It might result in malfunctions or failure.
● Hot or cold locations beyond the surrounding
temperature range of -40 I to 50 I.
● Locations beyond the allowable operating
humidity range of 20 % to 90 % (without
condensation)
● Near equipment that emits strong magnetic fields,
such as transformers or motors.
● Near equipment that emits radio waves, such as
transceivers and mobile phones.
● Locations with excessive dust and sand.
● Locations that are subject to vibration such as
inside the car or ship.
● Locations prone to moisture such as window side.
● Locations subject to steam or oil, such as
kitchens.
● Special environment, such as those with
combustible atmosphere
● Locations that emit radiation, X-rays, salt attack or
corrosive gases.
● Locations where medicine is used such as pool.
ⅷ When using in a low temperature (-40I to -20I)
environment, images may not be available for a
maximum of 2 hours until the built-in heater has
warmed up. It is recommended to always turn on the
electricity for the unit under a low temperature
environment.
ⅷ Use of this product and cables connected to this
product at locations where strong electric waves and
magnetic waves are generated (e.g., near radio, TV,
transformer, monitor, etc.) may cause noise
interferences in the images or changes in the color.
ⅷ Inadequate heat ventilation may result in malfunction
of this product. Be sure not to block vents around the
product. This product discharges heat from the
surface of the camera unit.
ⅷ Do not install it at locations directly subjected to cold
air such as near the vents of air-conditioners or at
locations with high temperature. Condensation may
occur inside the dome cover.
Saving Energy
ⅷ When the camera is not in use for a long time, turn
off the power of the system for safety and energy
conservation reasons.
