Adobe® Reader® is required to read these operating instructions on the provided CD-ROM.
Note: • For further information about PC system requirements and precautions for when using Microsoft Windows 7, Microsoft Windows Vista, or Windows Internet Explorer, click "Manual" "Open" from the supplied CD-ROM and refer to "Notes on Windows® / Internet Explorer® versions". • If using Microsoft Windows XP, screen tearing* may occur when the shooting scene drastically changes (for example, while shooting fast-moving subjects) due to the GDI restrictions of the OS.
Network security As you will use this unit connected to a network, your attention is called to the following security risks. q Leakage or theft of information through this unit w Use of this unit for illegal operations by persons with malicious intent e Interference with or stoppage of this unit by persons with malicious intent It is your responsibility to take precautions such as those described below to protect yourself against the above network security risks.
Precautions Refer installation work to the dealer. Installation work requires technique and experiences. Failure to observe this may cause fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to the product. Be sure to consult the dealer. Stop the operation immediately when something is wrong with this product.
[Precautions for use] This product is designed to be used indoors. This product is not operable outdoors. This product has no power switch. When turning off the power, disconnect the power supply from the 12 V DC power supply or the PoE device. (When using both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for power supply, disconnect both the connections.) To keep on using with stable performance Do not use this camera in hot and humid conditions for a long time.
Discoloration on the color filter of the MOS image sensor • When continuously shooting a bright light source such as a spotlight, the color filter of the MOS image sensor may have deteriorated and it may cause discoloration. Even when changing the fixed shooting direction after continuously shooting a spotlight for a certain period, the discoloration may remain. • When shooting fast-moving subjects or performing panning/tilting operations, objects crossing the shooting area may look to be bending askew.
Precautions for Installation Panasonic assumes no responsibility for injuries or property damage resulting from failures arising out of improper installation or operation inconsistent with this documentation. This camera is designed to be used indoors. This product is not operable outdoors. Do not expose this camera to direct sunlight for hours and do not install the product near a heater or an air conditioner. Otherwise, it may cause deformation, discoloration and malfunction.
Screw tightening • The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according to the material and strength of the installation area. • Do not use an impact driver. Use of an impact driver may damage the screws or cause tightening excessively. • Tighten screws at a right angle to the surface. After tightening screws, perform checks to ensure that the tightening is sufficient enough so that there is no movement or looseness. Procure fixing screws separately.

Connection Caution: • FOR UL LISTED MODEL(S), ONLY CONNECT 12 V DC CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY. Before starting the connection, turn off the power of this camera and the devices to be connected. Check and prepare the required devices and cables for connection.
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. Audio output connector c Connect an external speaker with amplifier to the audio output connector (for use of the audio transmission function). SF549 SF539 Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm) (audio output is monaural).
e After the cable connection, connect the external I/O terminal plug to the external I/O terminals of the camera. External I/O terminals IMPORTANT: • Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to connect 2 wires or more, use a splitter. • Input and output of the EXT I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configuring the setting. "Off" is selected by default.
When using 12 V DC power supply* q Loosen the screws of the power cord plug (accessory). w Connect the cable of the 12 V DC power supply* to the power cord plug. Strip 3 mm - 7 mm {1/8 inches - 9/32 inches} from the end of the wire, and twist the stripped part of the wire sufficiently to avoid short circuit. Specification of cable (wire): 16 AWG - 24 AWG, Single core, twisted • Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely connected. e Tighten the screws of the power cord plug.
When using PoE (IEEE802.3af compliant) Connect a LAN cable (category 5 or better, straight, STP*) between a PoE device (such as a hub) and the network connector of the camera. * E models only 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.

Installation Camera mounting Installation shall be conducted after turning off each device. z Detach the dome cover. (☞ Page 17) x Connect the cables to the camera. (☞ Pages 23 - 28) As necessary, use a cable tie (accessory) to assemble the cables. c Mount the camera. (The illustration represents the case in which a two-gang junction box is installed.) Fix the camera with 4 screws (M4, locally procured). 83.
Adjustment Perform the following procedures before adjusting the camera angle. SF549 SF548 Detach the inner dome from the camera by picking the front and rear sides. Note: • Do not touch the lens. Pick the portion marked in the illustration as well as the opposite side. z Adjust the camera angle. When determining the camera angle, repeat fine adjustments by gradually moving the panning table, tilting table, and azimuth adjustment ring.
Vertical position (Tilting) Loosen the tilting lock screws (x2), and rotate the tilting table to adjust the tilting direction. (Adjustable range: ±75 °) Since a variable focal lens is used, it is possible to change the angular field of view. This lens can also be rotated in the reverse direction, but the image azimuth is reversed. In this case, hold down the auto focus (AF) button/upside-down button for 5 seconds or more. The upside-down function starts operating and the image azimuth is modified.
x Adjust the angular field of view and the focus. Adjust the angular field of view in accordance with the distance between the camera lens and a photographic subject. These adjustments shall be performed together with the camera angle adjustment. Auto focus (AF) button/Upside-down button Zoom lock knob Loosen Tighten Focus ring * Do not move the focus ring. q Loosen the zoom lock knob and move the knob between TELE and WIDE to obtain the appropriate angle of view.
Note: • If the zoom lock knob is fully turned in the "W" direction, the periphery may become dark. In such a case, turn the zoom lock knob in the "T" direction for readjustment. • If the zoom lock knob is slightly tightened before the zoom is adjusted, the knob will become stable, making fine adjustments easier to perform. • When shooting in the following place or the following subjects, focus may not be adjusted automatically. In this case, adjust the focus manually from the setup menu.
Attaching the dome cover Attach the dome cover to the camera. SF549 SF548 The following procedure is required when using WV-SF549 or WV-SF548. Refer to page 35 when using WV-SF539 or WV-SF538. z Attach the inner dome to the camera in the same manner as the procedure in page 30. Make sure that the tilting lock screws of the camera and the holes on the inner dome are correctly fit together. x Attach T ON FR P TO the dome cover using the bit for tamperproof screw (accessory).
SF538 Attach the dome cover to the camera. SF539 The following procedure is required when using WV-SF539 or WV-SF538. Refer to page 34 when using WV-SF549, WV-SF548.
