Important Safeguards
In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in
the manufacture of your video product, safety is a major factor in the
design of every instrument. But safety is your responsibility, too.
These pages list important information that will help to assure
proper use of a Video Cassette Recorder and accessory
equipment. Please read it carefully before operating your video
product and keep it in a handy place for future reference.
• USE HIGH QUALITY HIGH GRADE VHS CASSETTES - This product
can be used in a mercantile bank to provide positive visual identification
of suspects by recording surveillance video camera images and time and
date information onto permanent magnetic media (video tape). The timelapse video cassette recorder and all other components of the
surveillance system must be properly installed, tested, and maintained
to fulfill this function. Carefully follow the instructions presented here and
elsewhere in the manual.
High resolution time lapse recording requires a high quality high grade
tape for satisfactory performance. Some brands of tape can have an
adverse effect on video head performance and head life. The following

INTRODUCTION
If you have never used a time-lapse recorder system before, this section will explain
what you need to do to get started.
Besides your time-lapse recorder, you will need the following equipment:
• a video camera
• analog monitor (VCR Out) and a spot monitor
• cables for the camera and monitor (typically these are coax cables with BNC connectors)
• a T-120 or T-130 VHS video tape. We recommend Gyyr, BASF, Maxell, and TDK
tapes.
• power sources for the VCR, camera, and monitor
Before connecting any piece of equipment to a power source, make the following
connections:
• connect cameras to the VCR's Video In connectors
• connect the analog monitor to the VCR's Video Out connector
• connect the Spot monitor to the Spot Out connector
• plug in all of your equipment to their power sources. This VCR unit connects into a
120 VAC wall outlet
• The very first time you power-up your VCR, perform a Master Reset. The procedure
for performing a Master Reset is on the detachable “Stop” page at the beginning of
this manual.
• insert a video tape into the unit
Your monitor should now display your camera's image. You will also see a Time/Date
display on the monitor with its factory default setting. A message will be displayed at
the bottom of the monitor screen: “Set Clock“.
If you wish to program the Time/Date Display, see “Time/Date Submenu” section of
this manual. A step-by-step description is covered in that section.
You will also notice that the letters “PL” are flashing in the Time/Date display. “PL”
stands for Power Loss. To remove “PL” from the display, simply press the Alarm Reset
button. However, be aware as you learn about the more advanced functions of your
VCR, that pressing the Alarm Reset button when “PL” is not blinking, will also clear the
alarm memory.
If you wish to display the VCR's On-Screen Menus, press the Prog. button. Information
about all the Programming Buttons is found in the “Front Panel Controls” section of this
manual. Information about the VCR's On-Screen Menus is found in the “Menus” section
of this manual.
If you wish to learn more about the Front Panel Controls, you might begin with the Play/
Record Operation Controls. Information about these controls is found in the “Front
Panel Controls” section of this manual. These controls are somewhat similar in operation to those of a home VCR.
As you are operating your recorder, keep an eye on the Digital Display and become
familiar with the various indicators. This display will become invaluable as you become
more comfortable with the operation of your recorder.
To learn more about the Tape Search and Management features, refer to the “Tape
Search and Management” section.

Follow this procedure for the
best results when reviewing a
time-lapse recorded tape:
1. With the VCR in PLAY (#16),
and without a particular event
in mind, place the VCR in the
2-hour speed. This is the
fastest playback speed and
can usually be used quickly to
locate an event.
2. Once an event has been
identified, slow the unit to 24hour, 48-hour or any other
slower speed. These slower
speeds will allow close
examination of the situation
and ample time to react.
3. Select the STILL (#10) mode
to stop the tape. Use FIELD
FWD (#11) or FIELD REV (#9)
to get the exact field you wish
to review.

ALARM INDEX OPERATION

INDEX
ALARM
RESET
Introduction
Note: The Alarm Index search
operates with recordings made
at the 2-, 18-, and 24-hour
speeds in normal mode. We
recommend that at least one
minute of an alarm be recorded
with the 18-, 24- and 30-hour
speeds.
The Alarm Index allows the user to search the video tape for the next occurrence
of an alarm on the tape.
To activate Alarm Index:
1. Press the Alarm Index button (button #25, see diagram below). The INDEX
annunciator on the VCR’s display will light.
2. Press PLAY, then F.FWD/SEARCH (or REW/SEARCH). The unit will
perform a fast forward search (or reverse search) until the next occurrence
of an alarm is found. The unit will then automatically enter the PLAY mode
at whatever playback speed has been previously selected.
3. To search for the next alarm occurrence, simply press F.FWD/SEARCH (or
REW/SEARCH).
Note: If too few fields of an alarm have been recorded, the unit may overshoot the
alarm recording. However, the unit will still drop into the PLAY mode when it
recognizes the alarm.

To Move and Edit
in the Menus
To Move and Edit in the menus:
• Press PROG. (#18) to display Main Menu.
• Press DOWN (#21) or UP (#22) to move the cursor from one menu line to another.
Example in moving the cursor:
• If you wish to move the cursor from the “Exit” line to the “System Options” line on
the Main Menu window, press DOWN four times or UP six times. See the “Main
Menu” section of this manual for more information.
• When the cursor is at the last line of the menu, if DOWN is pressed, the cursor will
move to the first line of the menu. Similarly, if the cursor is at the first line of the menu
and UP is pressed, the cursor will move to the last line of the menu.
• When the cursor is at a line you wish to edit, press PROG. to begin editing.
• To change a value in a line, highlight value and then press DOWN or UP.
• If there is more than one parameter to edit in a line, press PREV. (Previous #19) or
NEXT (#20) to move from one parameter to the next.
Example in editing:
• You may wish to edit “Date” in the Time/Date submenu. “Date” has three parameters:
month, day, year (for this example, we will assume that the format mm/dd/yy has
been selected). Press PROG. to begin editing. The first parameter, month, will be
highlighted. Use DOWN or UP to choose the desired value for the month. Then press
NEXT to begin editing the Day parameter. Press NEXT when you wish to edit the
Year value. If you wish to change values you have already entered, press PREV. to
return to the Day parameter or press PREV. twice to return to the month parameter.
• Press PROG. or NEXT when you're finished editing a line.
• If a line has a “>” at the rightmost position, the line has a submenu. When you press
PROG. when the cursor is at a line with a “>“, the submenu will be displayed.
A detailed example of programming a menu will be presented in the Time/Date
submenu.
