the object is larger than 1/300 of the main area and
also the contrast ratio between the object and the
background is more than 5 %.
• The auto track function of this camera is the simpli-
fied function that tracks a moving object in the
shooting area. It may be impossible to track a mov-
ing object in the following cases.
• When there are multiple moving objects in the
shooting area
• When the contrast ratio between a moving
object and the background is almost none
• When an object moves quickly
• When a moving object is too small or too big
• When the shooting area is dark
• When there is a flicker in the shooting area
• When the zoom ratio is set to the TELE side, it may
be difficult to obtain accuracy with the auto tracking
function. It is recommended to use the auto tracking
function with setting the zoom ratio to the "Wide"
side.
Auto pan: Automatically pans between the start
position and the end position set in advance
(☞ page 70).
Even when the camera is operated for zooming
or focusing, the camera continues panning.
(However, panning will stop when the zoom but-
ton (x1) is clicked.)

position (45° x 8 = 360°), and then displays 8
thumbnail images of each 45° position (45° x 8 =
360°) on a newly opened window. When a
thumbnail image is clicked, the camera moves
to the respective position and live images will be
displayed on the "Live" page.
Preset map-shot: Eight thumbnail images of the
preset position 1-8 (☞ page 67) will be displayed
orderly on a newly displayed window. When a
thumbnail image is clicked, the camera moves
to the respective position and live images will be
displayed on the "Live" page.
Note:
• Do not operate the browser until all the thumbnail
images are displayed and the camera returns to the
original position (where the camera was when "360
map-shot" or "Preset map-shot" was carried out).
• When "360 map-shot" is carried out while the cam-
era is moving (panning/tilting), images captured
while panning/tilting may be displayed as the
thumbnail display. In this case, stop the current
operation and carry out "360 map-shot" again.
• When "Preset map-shot" is carried out with an
unregistered preset position (among preset position
1-8), the thumbnail image of the preset position
before the unregistered preset position will be dis-
played.
In this case, the camera will not move when the
thumbnail image is clicked.
• The camera will not always return to the exactly
same position where it was before "360 map-shot"
or "Preset map-shot" was carried out. (It may some-
times be slightly different.)
• The window on which the thumbnail images are dis-
played will close when clicking the following buttons
that can switch the camera channel or reload
images: [Live], [Multi-screen], [H.264], [MPEG-4]/
[JPEG], [Stream], [Image capture size] [Image qual-

case, refer to the network administrator.
Step 1
Click the [Execute] button of "Access img.".
→ The user authentication window will be displayed.
Step 2
Click the [OK] button after entering the user name and
the password of the camera administrator.

• When logging in the FTP server of the camera to
access images, the SD memory card will be allo-
cated to the drive B.
Images are saved in different directories according
to "Save trigger".

Super Dynamic function
When there is wide variation between the illumina-
tion of light and dark areas of the location being
monitored, the camera adjusts the lens iris in accor-
dance with the brighter areas. This causes loss of
detail in darker areas. Conversely, adjusting the lens
brightness for the darker areas causes the brighter
areas to become washed out.
Super Dynamic digitally combines an image that is
set up for a clear view of the brighter areas with an
image that is set up for a clear view of the darker
areas, creating a final image that preserves overall
detail.
