PRECAUTIONS  
In case of problems  
Cleaning  
Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange odor  
comes from the unit, or if it seems not to function  
correctly. Disconnect the power cord immediately,  
and consult your dealer (or a Sanyo Authorized  
Service Centre).  
Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by wiping  
it with a soft cloth. To remove stains, wipe with  
a soft cloth moistened with a neutral detergent  
solution and wrung dry, then wipe dry with a  
dry soft cloth.  
Do not use solvents, thinner or other chemical  
product on the cabinet, as that may cause  
deformation and paint peeling. Before using a  
chemical cloth, make sure to read all  
accompanying instructions. Make sure that no  
plastic or rubber material comes in contact with  
the cabinet for a long period of time, as that  
may cause damage or paint peeling.  
Do not open or modify  
Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous  
and cause damage to the unit. For internal settings  
and repairs, consult your dealer (or a Sanyo  
Authorized Service Centre).  
Do not put objects inside the unit

INSTALLING AND HANDLING  
THE Ni-Cd BACKUP BATTERY  
The Ni-Cd battery which is supplied with the camera is used as a backup power supply for the clock and the  
hard disk.  
The battery has not been charged. Before turning on the camera power, install the battery by referring to the  
points below. If any problems with battery operation or leakages of battery fluid occur, contact the place of  
purchase.  
Note:  
(Warning displays)  
Once the camera’s power has been turned on  
When the camera power is turned on after the  
and left on for 24 hours, the battery will be  
charged sufficiently to provide 30 days of  
backup operation.  
battery has been replaced, “LOW BATT” will  
appear on the monitor screen, and charging of  
the battery will start automatically.  
If the battery is used continuously for long  
periods, leakage of battery fluid may occur. The  
interior of the battery compartment is lined with  
absorbent material to absorb any fluid which  
should happen to leak from the battery, so if  
replacing the battery after a leak has occurred,  
be sure to replace this absorbent material also.  
Approximately 1 hour of charging time is  
needed before the “LOW BATT” display  
disappears from the monitor screen. If the  
LOW BATT” display does not disappear after  
one hour or more has passed, it may indicate a  
problem with the battery.  
If “LOW BATT” appears on the monitor screen  
while the camera is in use, the warning  
indicator will flash and recording of images will  
be halted. This may also indicate a problem with  
the battery, so replace the battery at such times.  
Always be sure to use the accessory AC  
adapter. If you use some other  
commercially-available AC adapter, detection of  
problems with the backup battery will not be  
possible, and damage to the hard disk may  
result.  
If the battery has not been installed, or if the  
battery terminal contacts are not complete,  
NO BATT” will appear on the monitor display.  
If this happens, check the battery once more.  
If the camera power supply is turned off or a  
power outage occurs after the battery has only  
been charging for a short time, it may cause the  
clock setting to be re-initialized. If this happens,  
the camera will not operate.  
Never open the rear cover while power is being  
supplied to the camera. Always be sure to set  
the hard disk to the standby condition before  
opening the rear cover. (See page 18)

DANGER  
The following precautions must be observed at all  
times, otherwise the battery may leak, overheat or  
explode.  
Do not short the battery terminals and do not  
attempt to disassemble or modify the battery.  
Do not drop the battery or subject it to strong  
shocks.  
Never peel off or scratch the outer tube.  
Do not place the battery into fire, as it may  
explode.  
Do not use in any other appliance except for  
this camera.  
Do not expose the battery to moisture.  
Do not carry the battery by holding the  
connectors or lead wires.  
Do not place the battery into water or let the  
terminals of the battery get wet.  
If the fluid inside the battery gets into eyes, it may  
cause blindness. Do not rub the eyes, wash the  
affected area immediately with clean water, and  
then seek medical advice.  
If the fluid inside the battery gets onto the skin or  
clothing, it may injure the skin, so wash the  
affected area immediately with clean water.

Protecting the hard disk  
The built-in hard disk, cooling  
fan and Ni-Cd battery are  
consumable.  
These parts should generally be replaced after 2  
years of operation at an ambient temperature  
of 25˚C. This replacement period is a guide  
only, and is not a guarantee that performance  
will be maintained during the whole of the time.  
When you have finished using the camera, set the  
hard disk to standby mode before turning off the  
power. If the camera power is turned off at the  
following times when recording or playback is in  
progress, damage to the hard disk may result. (See  
page 18)  
When the Ni-Cd battery has not been charged  
for long enough  
If the ambient temperature is 40˚C, the Ni-Cd  
battery should generally be replaced after one  
year.  
When camera operation is stopped immediately  
after the battery has been replaced  
Checking the hard disk  
A hard disk check is carried out automatically when  
the camera power is turned on in order to see if  
there are any problems with the formatting of the  
hard disk. If a problem with the hard disk is  
detected, “CHECKING DISK!” is displayed on the  
monitor screen. If this happens, reformat the hard  
disk, or if the hard disk contains images that you  
need to save, contact the place of purchase for  
assistance.  
The hard disk is sensitive to dust, vibration and  
shocks, and it should also not be used in the vicinity  
of items which generate magnetic fields. Be sure to  
observe the following in order to minimize the risk  
of data losses.  
Do not subject the hard disk to shocks.  
Do not use the camera in places which are  
unstable or subject to vibration.  
Do not move the camera while the power is still  
turned on.  
Do not disconnect the power cord from the  
power supply while recording or playback is in  
progress.  
Do not use the camera in places which are  
prone to sudden changes in temperature  
(changes of more than 10˚C in one hour).  
If moving the camera to a place which has high  
humidity or which is subject to large fluctuations  
in humidity, condensation may form inside the  
camera. If the camera is used while there is  
condensation inside the camera, it may result in  
camera malfunctions.  
Do not install the camera in places which are  
subject to vibration, such as inside vehicles or  
trains.

SUMMER TIME SETTINGS  
(SUMMER TIME/DAYLIGHT SET)  
(End time setting)  
Notes on summer time settings  
When changing the current time setting using the  
CLOCK SET screen, you cannot change it to a time  
which is within one hour after the time when  
summer time has been set to start. If you try to set  
the time in this way, the time displayed will be  
changed automatically to a setting which is one  
hour after the time that you have actually set.  
10  
11  
Use the CURSOR (j or l) button to  
select “START”, and then use the CURSOR  
(d or c) button to select “END”.  
Use the CURSOR (l) button to select  
“WEEK LAST”, and then use the CURSOR  
(d or c) button to select “4TH”.  
Furthermore, if you change the current time to a  
time which is at least one hour before the time  
when summer time has been set to end, the time  
will be displayed exactly as you have set it.  
12  
13  
14  
Use the CURSOR (l) button to select  
“WEEK SUN”.  
For example: If summer time has been set to start  
at 2.00 and you change the current time setting to  
2.30 (the time becomes 3.30), then time settings  
between 2.00 and 2.59 will be carried out  
automatically.  
Use the CURSOR (l) button to select  
“MONTH 10”.  
Use the CURSOR (l) button to select  
“HOUR 02” and then use the CURSOR (d  
or c) button to set the hour to “14”.  
For example: If summer time has been set to end  
at 2.00 and you change the current time setting to  
1.30 (the time becomes 1.30), then in this case you  
cannot set the time to between 1.00 and 1.59.

SETTING THE RECORDING METHOD  
Note:  
Illumination  
The shutter speed for this camera is set  
automatically in accordance with the brightness of  
the object being recorded. If the object being  
recorded is moving and the resulting images are  
out of focus, increase the amount of illumination.  
Image quality  
The images on the monitor screen comply with a  
digital image format (VGA equivalent: 640 x 480  
dots), so the resolution will appear less sharp than  
images which are displayed on a computer screen.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
SETTING THE RECORDING METHOD  
Before using this camera, make sure that you set the current date and time. Recording will not be  
possible if they have not been set. (See page 22)  
The images which are recorded by this camera (three images per second) are saved onto the hard disk. The initial  
settings for the hard disk are shown in the illustration, but each of the settings can be changed if required.  
For details on changing the hard disk settings, refer to “HDD SET” in the SETTINGS screen. (See page 24)

Alarm recording can be divided into pre-alarm

recording area  
5 Used for changing the alarm time (automatic or  
number of suspicion images)  
For example, if the ALARM TIME recording period is  
set to the initial setting of 45 minutes, continuous  
recording to the pre-alarm area for 45 minutes occurs  
if no post-alarm recording is carried out. However, if  
the H (HOLD-UP) switch at the rear of the camera is  
turned on, the images recorded during the first 30  
minutes of the 45-minute pre-alarm recording period  
are deleted, and this space then becomes the  
post-alarm recording area (POST ALARM 30 min) and  
is used for post-alarm recording. The pre-alarm  
recording area (PRE ALARM 15 MIN) is maintained  
according to the settings.  
6 Used for hard disk initialization  
The two available methods of recording the  
captured images are alarm recording and  
suspicion recording.  
If the H (HOLD-UP) switch at the rear of the camera is  
not operated while recording images in the alarm  
recording area, then once recording has continued for  
the full length of time that has been set, it starts again  
automatically from the beginning of the hard disk and  
the images which are already on the hard disk are  
overwritten. This operation is continually repeated until  
recording is stopped.  
Post-alarm (POST-1) recording  
A switch must be connected to the H (HOLD-UP)  
terminal at the rear of the camera for post-alarm  
recording to be carried out. Post-alarm recording is  
then carried out while the hold-up (H) switch is turned  
on.  
For example, if new images are recorded at the  
beginning of the hard disk over the top of old images,  
then once 2 minutes and 30 seconds of new images  
have been recorded, 5 minutes’ worth of old images  
will be deleted automatically.  
If the switch which is connected to the H terminal is  
pressed and held during pre-alarm recording, the  
recording mode changes from pre-alarm recording to  
post-alarm recording. The images are recorded in the  
post-alarm (POST1) recording area of the hard disk.

Backup recording  
If there is 20 minutes or more of available recording  
time remaining in the post-alarm recording area of  
the hard disk after post-alarm (POST1) recording is  
completed, pre-alarm 2 (PRE2) recording [which is  
distinct from pre-alarm (PRE1) recording] starts  
automatically. If the hold-up (H) switch is then  
pressed, post-alarm 2 (POST2) recording [which is  
distinct from post-alarm (POST1) recording] starts.  
The recording time for backup recording is set  
automatically according to the ratio between the  
pre-alarm 2 (PRE2) and the post-alarm 2 (POST2)  
recording times.  
Note:  
If any of the following occur, “ALARM REC FULL”  
will be displayed on the screen and recording in the  
alarm recording area will no longer be possible.  
At such times, transfer the image data to a  
computer and clear the images from the alarm  
recording area, or re-initialize the hard disk.  
If the pre-alarm and post-alarm recording areas  
become full  
When post-alarm 2 (POST2) recording is  
complete, because this is the final recording  
area used  
If the available recording time for alarm  
recording is reduced to 20 minutes or less.  
Suspicion recording  
This recording method is used at times such as  
when a suspicious individual is noticed. A switch  
must be connected to the S (SUSPICION) terminal  
at the rear of the camera for suspicion recording to  
be carried out. If the switch which is connected to  
the S terminal is pressed during pre-alarm  
recording, the recording mode changes from  
pre-alarm recording to suspicion recording. The  
images are recorded in the suspicion recording area  
of the hard disk. The number of images that can be  
recorded is set automatically to between 11,565  
and 502 images, depending on the alarm recording  
time setting.
