The settings relating to the SD memory card can be configured on this page.
Operating mode
[SD memory card]
Select “Use” or “Not use” to determine whether or not to use the SD memory card.
[Audio recording]
Select whether or not to save audio data when saving video data in MP4 format.
•
Off: Does not save audio data to videos (MP4 format).
•
On: Saves audio data to videos (MP4 format).
Note
•
When “Audio recording” is used, it is necessary to set either of “Stream(1)”, “Stream(2)”, “Stream(3)” or “Stream(4)” for “Recording format”.
[Remaining capacity notification]
When the E-mail notification function or the Panasonic alarm protocol function is used to provide notification of the remaining capacity of the SD memory card, select a level to be notified at from the following.
50%/ 20%/ 10%/ 5%/ 2%
Note
•
Notification will be provided each time the remaining capacity goes below each of the specified values.
For example, notification will be provided each time the remaining capacity reaches 50%, 20%, 10%, 5% and 2% when “50%” is selected. Notification may not always be made at the very moment when the remaining capacity of the SD memory card has reached each value.
[Overwrite]
Determine whether or not to overwrite when the remaining capacity of the SD memory card becomes insufficient.
•
On: Overwrites when the remaining capacity of the SD memory card becomes insufficient. (The oldest image is the first to be overwritten.)
•
Off: Stops saving images on the SD memory card when the SD memory card becomes full.
IMPORTANT
•
Select “Not use” when operating without an SD memory card.
•
Before removing the SD memory card from the camera, it is necessary to select “Not use” first. The recorded data may be corrupted if the SD memory card is removed when “Use” is selected.
•
When an SD memory card is inserted when “Use” is selected, data will be saved in accordance with the setting of “Save trigger”.
•
After inserting the SD memory card, it is necessary to select “Use” to use the SD memory card.
•
When the image refresh interval is short, notification/recording timing or interval may become incorrect. Notification/recording may also not be performed correctly as configured when multiple users are receiving images. In this case, set the refresh interval longer.
•
There are limited times to overwrite on an SD memory card. When having a high frequency of overwriting, the lifetime of the SD memory card may become shorter.
•
A lifetime of an SD memory card should be influenced by the number of the image files stored and log savings on the SD memory card. Selecting “Stream(1)”, “Stream(2)”, “Stream(3)”, or “Stream(4)” for “Recording format” can reduce the number of files that can be stored on the SD memory card.
•
If the data writing speed goes down after data is repeatedly written on an SD memory card, we recommend replacing the SD memory card.
•
When the setting is changed from “Off” to “On”, if the remaining capacity of the SD memory card is low, old images may be deleted in order to prepare to save new images.
SD memory card security
[Additional info for detecting alteration]
Select whether or not to add information to enable detection when the data in the SD memory card is altered.
Alteration detection supports video data (MP4 format) only and can be checked using exclusive software.
For further information about exclusive software for alteration detection and how to use it, refer to our website below.
[SD memory card password lock]
Configure a password for the SD memory card. When configuring a password, devices other than the camera will be unable to write to or read the SD memory card. If the SD memory card is stolen or lost, the risk of recorded data being leaked can be reduced.
[Set]
When an SD memory card with no configured password is inserted, a password can be configured using the [Set] button.
[Password]/[Retype password]
Enter the password.
Available number of characters: 4 - 16 characters
Unavailable characters: " &
Default: None (blank)
[Remove]
When an SD memory card with a configured password is inserted, the password can be removed using the [Remove] button.
[Password]
Enter the password.
Available number of characters: 4 - 16 characters
Unavailable characters: " &
[Change]
When an SD memory card with a configured password is inserted, the password can be changed using the [Change] button.
[Old password]/[New password]/[Retype new password]
Enter the password.
Available number of characters: 4 - 16 characters
Unavailable characters: " &
[Status]
Display the configuration status of the password lock.
•
Lock: A password is configured on the SD memory card, and the lock function is enabled.
•
Unlock: The lock function is disabled.
Also display the password configuration status of SD memory card respectively.
•
Password is set.: The password is configured correctly.
•
Error(Unsupported SD memory card): A card that does not support password lock is inserted. Check that an SDHC memory card or SDXC memory card is inserted.
•
Error(Password mismatch): The SD memory card cannot be used because the password configured for the SD memory card and the password configured for the camera do not match. Check that the passwords are correct.
•
Error(Undefined error): Displayed when an error occurs in the SD memory card. Check the SD memory card.
Note
•
The password lock function supports only SDHC memory cards and SDXC memory cards.
•
If you will use the SD memory card on a device other than the camera with password lock configured, remove the password using the password lock remove button before removing the SD memory card.
The password cannot be removed on devices (such as PCs) other than the camera.
•
When the “Status” of “SD memory card password lock” is “Lock”, if an SD memory card with noconfigured password is inserted, the password is automatically configured to the SD memory card.
IMPORTANT
•
If you forget the configured password, the password cannot be removed. The SD memory card with the configured password will become unusable, so manage passwords with great care.
•
If you forget the configured password and you want to replace the SD memory card with a new one, perform one of the following step to set the “Status” of “SD memory card password lock” to “Unlock” before replacing the SD memory card.
–
Use the password lock remove button to enter a password and then press the [Set] button.
–
Initialize settings from the “Maintenance” page.
