User's Manual

7.3 Specifying Operation Times
You can specify the days and times during which general users and guest users can view camera images (the
administrator can always view camera images). When the camera is accessed outside of the operation time,
the camera image on the single camera page, multi camera page, and buffered image page is displayed as a
gray or black screen. Additionally, [The operation time has ended.] is displayed on the single camera page.
Up to 7 different operation times can be set.
Note
• Your privacy may be compromised if you set this feature incorrectly. To confirm that you have made
the correct settings, access the camera as a general user or guest user during a time the camera is
outside of the operational time to confirm that camera images cannot be seen.
• Make sure the camera’s date and time setting is correct in order for this feature to function as desired.
• If H.264 or MPEG-4 images are being viewed when the camera’s operation time ends, the last image
will be displayed for about 20 seconds, followed by a black screen when viewing H.264 images and a
gray screen when viewing MPEG-4 images. If MJPEG are being viewed when the camera’s operation
time ends, the last image is displayed continuously as a still image.
