(1ST EDITION)

OPERATION MANUAL

General Considerations

Power Supply

Verify your unit has the correct voltage specifications for your power source prior to applying power by reading the voltage range on the rear panel near the AC connector. The CDR-16T normally operates on 100-240VAC ±10%; 50/60Hz. Do not attempt to operate these units using a source having different specifications.

Location

Avoid using the CDR-16T in areas having high humidity, high temperature, or excessive dust. Adequate ventilation is also required for optimum performance. As a result of this consideration, ensure no other equipment is located or installed closer than 5cm to any unit.

Fuse

If a fuse blows, replace it with one the same rating as indicated below with unit power switched off. Note only qualified personnel should perform fuse replacement. If fuse blows frequently, turn power off and contact your supplier.

Fuse used in CDR-16T is as below:

250V, T4.0A, slow blow type (100-240 VAC)

Desk or Tabletop Use

Unit baseplates are fitted at the factory with rubber feet to allow immediate usage as a desk or tabletop unit.

Rack Mounting

The CDR-16T can be mounted to EIA standard rack units. When rack mounting a unit, remove the rubber feet and use the accessory rack mount brackets (rack ears).

Upon Receipt

Unpacking

The CDR-16T is fully inspected and adjusted prior to shipment and can be operated immediately upon completing all required connections and operational settings.

1. Prior to Starting

1-1. Welcome

Congratulations! By purchasing a CDR-16T you have entered the world of CBC and its many innovative products. Thank you for your patronage and we hope you will turn to CBC products again and again to satisfy your video and audio production needs. Whatever your needs, talk to your CBC representative. We will do our best to be of continuing service to you.

1-2. About the CDR-16T

The CDR-16T combines the best features of digital recorders and multiplexer products in one compact package. Triplex operation capability, high quality performance and fast response make it excellent for use at banks, casinos, stores, factories, theaters, museums, governmental institutes, airports or other institutions with ongoing surveillance / observation needs. Units are available shipped with one of three different capacity internal hard drives; (36GB), (72GB) or (180GB).

Up to 16 composite video camera signals can be input and frame-switch recorded into its hard disk drive memory. It also has a built-in frame synchronizer with 2-frame wide window correction to assure even asynchronous signals can be fully utilized. Each recorded camera scene can be retrieved and displayed independently (full screen), or multiple camera channels can be viewed simultaneously on the same monitor as a split display. Motion adaptive JPEG compression record, selectable compression rates (record quality settings), alarm record real time (NTSC 60, PAL 50 fields / sec.) and multiple record mode settings.

All alarm events, including power ON/OFF, can be time stamped with year, month, date, hour, minute and second of occurrence. Each event recorded can also be nonlinearly accessed at any time for review and observation. Picture quality remains high from first playback to last; no deterioration occurs no matter how many times the same scene is replayed. There is also no picture disturbance during shuttle operation and slow motion playback is extremely smooth.

Features

Ø No PC based technology. Operate as stand alone. Designed to insure long term reliability. Ø Accepts any asynchronous or synchronous composite color or B/W signal input.

(Loopthrough output of each input is possible.)

Ø Input video recorded to internal hard disk drive. Ø Optional DVD drive to back up critically needed security recordings. Ø Nonlinear recording means nearly instantaneous access to needed video. Ø Configure multiple external hard drives to increase record capacity. Ø Specify drives as ‘playback only’ or ‘record / playback’ use. Ø Noise free motion during shuttle, noise free stills during jog. Ø Smooth slow motion playback, no picture deterioration after repeated playbacks. Ø 3000 alarm index memory for each configured HDD. Year, month, day, hour, minute, and

second of occurrence memorized for each alarm.

(Continued following page.)

Ø Record realtime or using one of the record interval (update or timelapse) settings. Ø Full screen and split display auto camera switchover (dwell time) selectable as 1-30 seconds. Ø Triplex operation capable; recorded signals can be retrieved and viewed, or camera inputs

directly observed full size or split display mode, on a single monitor while still recording.

Ø Built-in character generator allows title ID line of up to 16 alphanumeric characters to be

displayed for each camera input depending on display mode.

Ø RS-232C interface for computer command control of most operational functions.

4. Basic Operation

Note

Front panel operation buttons will be indicated in boxes ( ZOOM ) throughout this manual to make it easier to distinguish between buttons and menus. ZOOM (button) vs. ZOOM (menu).

4-1. Power ON / OFF

Ø CDR-16T will start uploading data from HDD memory when power is switched ON. Data load

completion takes approx. 30 sec. (see note below) and CONTROL group buttons will flash until loading is completed.

Note

Data load completion time when 36GB internal HDD is installed is approx. 30 sec. If your unit is a later internal hard drive model and / or external drives configured, the size and number of HDDs connected will determine how long data load completion will take.

Ø Settings in operational memory are backed-up by an internal lithium battery having an approx.

life span of approx. 5 years (at 25° C). Battery will have to be replaced when the ‘BACKUP ERROR’ message appears on your observation monitor. Consult your CBC supplier regarding purchase of a replacement battery.

Ø Do not turn power OFF while record operations are in process. If power is turned OFF during

record, final frames will not record properly and / or will not be saved to disk.

Ø If a power failure occurs, POWER-ON-REC function will auto-restart record operations at the

point they were interrupted when power is again applied to the recorder. Record restart point will also automatically record over final frames that were misrecorded at power loss.

Ø Do not move unit with power ON. Moving unit with power ON may cause damage to the hard

disk and / or loss of drive contents.

4-2. Resetting to Factory Defaults

If you need to completely clear currently made operational settings, you can return recorder to factory defaults and then make new settings.

◇ To return unit to factory default settings, proceed as below.

① The CDR-16T can be returned to factory defaults at any time by momentarily holding

AUTO (indicated below) depressed while switching ON power.

② Connected monitor will display ‘MEMORY CLEAR’ message while factory default settings

are being restored.
