Connect a LAN cable (category 5 or better, straight, STP: For Europe) to the network connector.

IMPORTANT:
Use all 4 pairs (8 pins) of the LAN cable. The maximum cable length is 100 m {328 feet}. Make sure that the PoE device in use is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard. When connecting both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for power
supply, 12 V DC will be used for power supply. If a 12 V DC power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at the same time,
network connections may not be possible. In this case, disable the PoE settings. Refer to the operating instructions of the PoE hub or router in use.

  • In the situation where a 12 V DC power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at the same time and the 12 V DC power supply is then disconnected, the power supply may be stopped and the camera may restart depending on the PoE hub or router used. When the LAN cable is disconnected once, reconnect the cable after around 2 seconds. When the cable is quickly reconnected, the power may not be supplied from the PoE device.

Connect the alarm input/output cable
Connect the cables of external devices to the EXT I/O terminal plug (accessory). q When connecting an external device, remove 8 mm – 9 mm {5/16 inches – 11/32 inches} of
the outer jacket of the cable and twist the cable core to prevent the short circuit first. Specification of cable (wire): 20 AWG – 26 AWG, Single core, twisted w Push down the button of the desired terminal on the external I/O terminal plug with a ballpoint pen, and release the button when the cable of the external device is fully inserted into the terminal hole.
Note: Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely connected.

IMPORTANT:
Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to connect 2 or more wires, use a splitter.
Off, input, and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configuring the setting. Refer to the Operating Instructions on the provided CD-ROM for further information about the EXT I/O terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) settings (“Off”, “Alarm input”, “Alarm output” or “AUX output”).
Install external devices so that they do not exceed the rating of the network camera. When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not
cause signal collision with external signals.

As necessary, use a cable tie (accessory) to tie the cables together.

Connect an external amplifier-embedded speaker to the audio output cable SFN311 SFR311

Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm) (Audio output is monaural.). Use an external powered speaker.

Output impedance

: Approx. 600 (unbalanced)

Recommended cable length : Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}

Output level

: ­20 dBV

IMPORTANT:
Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the power of the camera after turning off the power of the audio output devices. Otherwise, loud noise may be heard from the speaker.
Make sure that the stereo mini plug is connected to this cable. When a monaural mini plug is connected, audio may not be heard. When connecting a monaural speaker with amplifier, use a locally procured conversion cable (mono-stereo).

Microphone/line input cable SFN311 SFR311
Connect a monaural mini plug (ø3.5 mm). Input impedance: Approx. 2 k (unbalanced) Recommended cable length: Less than 1 m {3.28 feet} (for microphone input)

Caution: A READILY ACCESSIBLE DISCONNECT DEVICE SHALL BE INCORPORATED
TO THE EQUIPMENT POWERED BY 12 V DC POWER SUPPLY. ONLY CONNECT 12 V DC CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY (UL 1310/CSA 223) or
LIMITED POWER SOURCE (IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60950-1).
Connect the output cable to the power cable plug (accessory). q Loosen the screw of the power cable plug (accessory), strip 3 mm to 7 mm {1/8 inches to
9/32 inches} from the end of the wire, twist the stripped part of the wire sufficiently to avoid short circuit, and then connect the output cable to the power cable plug (accessory). w Tighten the screw of the power cable plug. (Recommended tightening torque: 0.34 N·m {0.25 lbf·ft})
Note: Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely con-
nected. When connecting an external power supply to the camera, use the 16 AWG to 24
AWG single-wired or stranded wired cables.
IMPORTANT: The 12 V DC power supply shall be insulated from the commercial AC power. Be sure to use the power cable plug provided with this product. Be sure to fully insert the power cable plug into the 12 V DC power supply terminal.
Otherwise, it may damage the camera or cause malfunction. When installing the camera, make sure that excessive force is not applied to the
power cable. Be sure to use an AC adaptor compliant with the Specifications (written in the indi-
cation label on the bottom side of this unit) regarding power source and power consumption.

LAN cable (category 5 or better, straight, STP: For Europe) Use a LAN cable (category 5 or better, cross) when directly connecting the camera to a PC. *1 Recommended cable length from the speaker : less than 10 m {32.8 feet} Recommended cable length from the microphone : less than 1 m {3.28 feet} IMPORTANT: The adjustment monitor is used for checking the adjustment of the angular field of view when installing the camera or when servicing. It is not provided for recording/ monitoring use. Depending on the monitor, some characters (camera title, preset ID, etc.) may not be displayed on the screen. Use a switching hub or a router which is compliant with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX. If a PoE hub is not used, each network camera must be connected to a 12 V DC power supply. When using 12 V DC, power supply from a PoE hub or router is not required.

i Disconnect the monitor for adjustment. Attach the enclosure. (Attach the enclosure by aligning the Panasonic logo to the direction marker (FRONT ) on the camera.)

Note: Depending on the adjustable range or the optical zoom, it must be noted that the
shadow of the enclosure may be projected. When mounting the camera on a ceiling, adjust the tilt angle so that the TOP mark
above the lens always comes to the top side. When the camera is installed to a wall, rotate the azimuth adjustment ring till the
TOP mark above the lens always comes to the top side. When adjusting the viewing angle for cameras mounted to ceilings, the enclosure
and installation auxiliary wire may be displayed on the screen depending on the direction the camera is facing. Move the enclosure and installation auxiliary wire so that they are not displayed on the screen. Remove the camera using the reverse order of the installation procedures.
IMPORTANT:
Securely tighten all the enclosure fixing screws (x2) of enclosure. Otherwise, camera dropping may result in injury. (Recommended tightening torque: 0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft})
Defocus may be caused by the reinstalled enclosure. In this case, perform the auto focus function from the setup menu. SFN311 SFR311
