        * If the correspondence table of camera categories are selected,
          some functions may not operate correctly depending on the models.
          It is recommended to register cameras by "Easy Start".

        * When "i-PRO(St1Only)" for camera categories and "H.264(or H.265)" for
          compression are selected, this unit uses only H.264(1) (or H.265(1))
          stream for live viewing and recording.

        A camera having an asterisk "*" displayed at the beginning of the model number will
        operate with the "alternate model number". Regarding a camera that is not supported
        by this equipment (hereafter referred to as an "unsupported camera"), the model
        number of a supported camera having similar functions is called an "alternate model
        number". During operation with an "alternate model number", although the functions
        that are common with the unsupported camera will function normally, the functions
        that are unique to the unsupported camera may not function at all. It is likely such
        cameras will be supported formally in the future with an upgraded software version.
        Please check the Panasonic support website for whether firmware corresponding to that
        camera has been released.
