Periodically images on the screen appear to be distorted When the camera is installed in a location where it is subject to small vibrations (for example, when it is installed near devices that vibrate), images may appear distorted and stretched lengthways. This phenomenon is a characteristic of image pickup devices that use CMOS sensors and is caused by the relationship between the periodic movements of the camera and the timing that the image sensor reads images. This is not a problem with the camera.
Position refresh During the use for a long period of time, the preset positions may become inaccurate. When “Position refresh” is set for the created schedule, the camera position will be corrected periodically. Refer to the Operating Instructions on the provided CD-ROM for how to perform the settings. Tilt angles and the zoom ratio This product contains a function to prevent image deterioration.
