Introducing the Panasonic WV-CW964 All-in-One Super Dynamic III Dome Camera

The WV-CW964 Super Dynamic III color dome camera integrates a weatherproof housing, 360 degree high-speed pan and tilt base, and 30x optical zoom lens. Through exclusive Panasonic high performance features like Pixel Based 128x Dynamic Range, unprecedented image realism is achieved.

Moreover, new intelligent functions, including Auto Image Stabilizer, Scene Change Detection, and Auto Tracking, deliver outstanding reliability in outdoor surveillance. The WV-CW964 camera will play a dynamic role in a host of security applications; including parking lots, amusement parks, shopping malls, airports, train stations, expressways, city streets and plazas.

Rain Resistant

The WV-CW964 camera can be installed under eaves, on external walls or rooftops, and in other outdoor locations. It's IP66 (IEC60529 standard) approved.

Ready for Temperature Changes

The housings built-in fan and heater ensure an operating temperature range of 40°C
to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).

Shielded against the Sun

Built-in sun shield permits camera locations in direct sunlight.

Powerful Pixel Based 128x Dynamic Range

Area-free natural contrast image correction is pixel based to ensure accurate reproduction, whatever the subject or location. The 128x Dynamic Range, with both 1/8,000 sec. and 1/60 sec. shutter speeds, makes this the ideal surveillance solution for ATMs, entrances, and other areas where contrast can lighting can vary.

540-line Horizontal Resolution Captures the Details

Optimized filtering and broadband digital signal processing developed for the Super Dynamic III DSP deliver the finest details, with 540 lines of horizontal resolution in color (typical) and 570 lines in B/W.

Enhanced Processing for Natural Color

To deliver natural color in its full range, new digital color circuitry in the DSP
processes color in finer detail, for reproduction of pale or dimly lit colors.

Automatic Switching to B/W for Night Surveillance

For optimal surveillance, day and night, the camera automatically switches to B/W mode, for greater sensitivity, when darkness falls. In daylight, it automatically switches to color mode. Mode selection can also be set to manual operation.

Minimum Illumination of 0.04 lux in B/W Mode

Capture a clear surveillance image even in poor light. Minimum illumination needed is only 0.5 lux (0.05 fc) in color and 0.04 lux (0.004 fc) in B/W mode, with pix sens up off, sens up off (AGC high).

Auto Focus

WV-CW964 cameras are all equipped with Auto Focus, ensuring that what you see is always in sharp focus.

30x Optical Zoom (300x with digital zoom)

The standard 30x optical zoom lens on the WV-CW964 and 10x digital zoom provide a total of 300x zoom. This powerful zoom capability allows you to zoom in on distant subjects and identify them correctly.

0.065°/sec. Super Fine Pan Control

Our proprietary control chip, brushless DC motor, and microprocessor with optimized speed profile give you super fine 0.065°/sec. pan control. Combined with highperformance zoom, it permits smooth tracking and captures moving subjects.

Streak-free Adaptive Digital Noise Reduction

Movement-generated streaking is corrected with 2D DNR processing for moving subjects and 3D DNR for the background. Now capture headlights of moving cars clearly, unmarred by the streaking previous 3D DNR subjectimage processing
generated.

Auto Image Stabilizer Removes Blurring

Automatic image stabilization prevents blurring when high winds or vibration
from aircraft, trains, or trucks affect cameras.

Scene Change Detection Pinpoints Interference

For example, if the camera has been tampered with by a manual change in its angle, removal of the lens, defocusing, or blocking the lens with cloth or paint, this feature detects the interference and sends an alarm.

Auto Tracking

Using the auto tracking feature, the camera follows the largest movement in the image, automatically. The camera will pan and tilt to keep the subject in the center of the image.

High-speed Panning at 400°/sec

Quickly capture a subject, thanks to a maximum 400°/sec. panning speed. The surveillance range is 360° horizontally (endless panning) and 190° vertically.

Maximum 256 Preset Positions

Press a key on the controller to select preset positions.

Image Hold Eliminates Screen Blurring

The Image Hold function stores and displays the image immediately before the position selection until selection of preset positions is complete. This function eliminates the screen blurring that occurs during panning with conventional cameras, for clear, well-defined images during monitoring.

Digital Flip

When the camera pans 135° vertically, the top and bottom of the image can be digitally reversed. A subject passing directly under the camera can be continuously tracked as the camera continues its 180° pan.

Privacy Zone Masking

Mask any portion of the surveillance image on screen to prevent privacy infringement. (Gray and mosaic masking supported.)

Motion Detector

When movement is detected within the surveillance area, the motion detector sends an alarm to external devices. Connection to a VCR or DVR recording system is also possible.

Patrol Learn Stores/Reproduces Manual Operations

Perform a camera operation such as panning or zooming once, then, with Patrol Learn, reproduce it at the flip of a switch.

Text Display of Camera IDs

Show an identifying name for each camera on the monitor, up to 16 characters and symbols.

Alarm Inputs/Outputs for External Device Control

With 4 alarm inputs and 2 alarm outputs on the output connector, each alarm signal can operate under preset positions and zooms. Alarm signals can also control DVR, VCR, or other external recording devices.

Ready to Use with One Coaxial Cable or RS-485

Transmits video image signals, control data, synchronization signals (VD2), and alarm signals over one coaxial cable up to 900 m (3,000 ft) long. The system also supports RS-485 data communication for use over extended distances and with expanded services.

Multiple Setup Languages

System set up in eight languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Chinese, and Japanese.
