The primary purpose of the SW -D7000U is efficient video multiplexing and multi-screen display. Alarm handling and motion detection are secondary functions. National standards relating to alarm equipment should be taken into account when choosing equipment to use with the SWD7000U. In general, the SW-D7000U multiplexer should not be the only alarm device on the site.

How multiplexed recording works:

To record several cam era inputs on one video output, single fields are digitally captured from each of the video-input channels and then stacked c onsecutively to form a c ontinuous video signal of tim e-s liced c am era fields. The time s licing of several inputs onto one output is generally known as T ime Division Multiplexing

JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS 11

WARNING!

Page 12

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

(TDM). Time base correction is performed during digital capture and so input cameras need not be synchronized.

The order in which the fields are captured from the different input cameras is controlled by an operatorprogrammed RECO RD LIST, which can be automatically modified by the system in the event of alarms or motion detection. The m ultiplexed video fields can then be r ecorded onto a single VCR via the VCR output connector.

Example: 3 multiplexed inputs:

A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6 A6 A7

Camera A video fields:

B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B6 B7

Camera B video fields:

C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 C6 C7

Camera C video fields:

A1 B2 C3 A4 B5 C6 A6 B7

Output

etc.

In addition to the video content sent to the VCR in each field, a packet of digital data that uniquely identifies the field is inserted into each field sent to the VCR. (This packet data is not visible in the normal video and is used in the Playback mode to recognize incom ing fields and to link them back to the or iginal camera input from which they were captured.)

Besides the camera num ber, other status inform ation stored in this packet of digital data includes time and date, camera status, c am era title, selec ted recor d tim e m ode infor m ation as well as system and alarm status at the time of recording. This status information is rebuilt and displayed with the corresponding camera during Playback. On Playback the operator can select one of several screen for mats for display, and can also choose which cameras to display in which position in a multi-screen.

How Playback works:

When Playing back multiplexed recordings which were originally recorded from a multiplexer, time stam ped video fields are r ec eived f rom a VCR connected to the VCR input connector or Y/C input on the

SW-D7000U's

rear panel, each field being uniquely identified by its own digital data packet.

These embedded digital data packets are decoded, and the video field is linked to its original input camera.

The operator can select which c ameras to display during Playback, and so the video field f or that camera is displayed (or skipped) according to the operator 's Playback selection. All the associated st atus inform ation, including titles, time and date of recording, as well as the alarm or video loss status of the camera is reconstructed from the digital data packet and displayed as on-screen text during Playback. Because the on-screen text is re-constructed and gener ated for on-screen display (as opposed to being recorded on the VCR as part of the video display) the operator is assured of very clear and legible status and titles during Playback.

2.2 CONNECTIONS

The following instructions relate to the multiplexer only. Refer to the relevant instructions for the associated equipment.

All the connectors are on the back-panel of your multiplexer as shown below. These connectors are:

9 Loop-through camera inputs with automatic termination

Monitor outputs for Monitor-A (BNC and S-VHS) and Monitor-B (BNC)

VCR input and output (BNC or S-VHS)

9 alarm inputs (25 pin D-sub) each of which can be nor mally open (NO) or normally closed (NC)

RS232 and RS485 connections

The 25 pin “D-sub” connector also has the contacts for the two alarm output relays and VEXT input. The VEXT input accepts a synchronizing pulse from your VCR (see VCR instructions). This allows the multiplexer to follow, automatically, the time lapse speeds of the VCR if they change due to manual changes or alarm activity.

2.3 CAMERA INPUTS

Use 75 ohm BNC connectors and video c oaxial cable to connect to the camera input BNC sockets on the back of your multiplexer.

For each camera input, there are two BNC sock ets, one f or the cam era input and one for the looped camera signal. If you connect to both BNC sockets your multiplexer automatic ally removes the 75ohm termination. If using the loop-through facility, make sure that your ultimate connection point (e.g. A monitor or VCR) provides a 75- ohm termination at the end of the line. If you do not use the loop-through output the multiplexer will automatically terminate at the input BNC.

Connect your 9 camera inputs. If you have less than 9 cam eras, you can disable individual camera inputs in the menu system, see CAMERA ENABLE/DISABLE.

2.4 VCR CONNECTIONS

This connection consists of a video and VEXT input (25 pin D-sub) connections. For an S-VHS VCR, use 4-pin mini-din S-VHS connectors.

For a standard VCR use 75 ohm coaxial cable and BNC connectors.

NOTE:

If you are using S-VHS, then for full benefit, you must als o select S-VHS in the VCR SET UP menu. Although the VEXT connection is optional, it is a good way to simplify the operation of your multiplexer because it autom atically synchronizes your VCR to your multiplexer. If using the VEXT input, the SWITCH INPUT option must be used in the VCR SETUP menu.

NOTE:

Do not use locked type S-video cable.

Some time-lapse VCR’s do not transmit a VEXT signal in real time mode (2 hour NTSC/EIA). In these cases, if you are using the VEXT input, select the sam e recording speeds in both the Alarm Record Speed and Nor mal Record Speed m enu settings in the RECORD OPTION in the MAIN MENU.

2.9 VEXT INPUT

16 JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS

Page 17

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

The VEXT input (cam era switch input) is for c onnecting from the VCR to your multiplex er. The VCR uses it to tell the multiplexer each time it has recorded an im age. T he multiplexe r then transm its the next image on its VCR record output (VIDEO IN on the VCR). This way the VCR controls the multiplexer’s record ing speed. Connect the VEX T input ( Pin 24) and one of the gr ounds pins to your VCR.

This facility is often refer red to as a camera switch output, Rec trigger output, or sim ilar, (see your VCR instructions). It is espec ially useful on VCRs with dual recording s peeds (alarm and norma l) because the multiplexer will automatically follow.

NOTE:

Some time-lapse VCR’s do not transmit a VEXT signal in real tim e mode ( 2 hour NT SC). In these cases, if you are using the VEXT input, s elect the s am e recor ding speeds in both the Alarm Record Speed and Normal Record Speed menu settings in the RECORD OPTION in the MAIN MENU.

The VEXT input accepts:

TTL, field synchronized, negative going pulse, duration 2-5ms

HIGH level, +4.5V to +5.5V

LOW level, 0V

The multiplexer can be set to trigger off the negative or pos itive going edge (VEXT Puls e Edge in the RECORD menu).

NOTE:

On power up, the auto-detection circuit will wait about 15 seconds to check if the VCR starts to output a switch pulse. The period of 15 seconds is approximately the period between switch pulses when the VCR is running in 960-hour mode. During this brief tim e the multiplexer will not switch cameras at all unless a switch pulse is detected. If the switch pulse ceases, the m ultiplexer will also take about 15 seconds to determine that it has in fact stopped and not just changed to 960-hour mode.

2.10 POWER

The multiplexer is s upplied with a DC 12V class 2 output; AC 240 or 110V ±10%, 50 or 60Hz, input, external power supply. Its maximum power consumption is 40W.

3.2 RECORDING

In Record mode, single fields from up to 9 video input c hannels are assem bled to form a continuous multiplexed video signal, which can then be recorded on a VCR according to a pre-programmed recording list.

Each recorded field is uniquely identified and linked to its input camera sour ce by coded digital data that is automatically inserted into the time-sliced video field. Time/date and camera status information is also included in the coded data within each field. T his coded data is used to provide comprehensive status and camera identification information during later Playback of recorded signals.

Record mode is always active. It is not necessary to press the RECORD key.

NOTE:

The title c olors and positions in Play mode can be different to those in Live mode.

The unit will keep a separate record of the selections for Live and Play.

3.3.5 PLAY MODE: SEQUENCING DURING PLAYBACK

During the Play mode, the multi-screens and full-screens are sequenced according to the sequence list and dwell times program med in the menus . (Refer to the descriptions in the Live mode section of the manual.)

CAUTION

Example:

If the VCR is set to 48 hour mode while Playing back a tape with 9 cameras recorded, then a field for any one camera will generally not be sent from the VCR to the multiplexe r more often that every 5 seconds. If the sequence dwell time is then set to 2 seconds, there is a very good chance that the display will not be updated with a field from VCR for the current cam era in the sequence, before the sequencing switches to the next camera in the sequence list.

Recommendation:

Set the VCR to its 2hour speed when sequencing the displays during Playback.

: W hen sequencing the dis play during Playback, do not set the VCR’s Play speed

such that the frequency at which any one camera is Played back off the tape is slower than the frequency that the sequence list will switch through cameras in the list.

NOTE:

Tapes being Played back may be from different sites or different setups, and may have nothing to do with the current Live setup of the unit. Hence, the m ulti-screen sequencing option will sequence through only the cameras that are not already on the multi-screen. Any video loss or disabled c ameras setup or detected in Live or during recording will be ignored.

Alarm Handling Capability:

Alarms can be programmed to:

Display Full-screen image of the camera in alarm on Monitor-B.

Activate either one or both of the Alarm Output Relays.

Latch until reset, Timed-Out (latched for a preset tim e), or T ransparent and follow the status of the alarm input, either active or not active.

3.4.1 MANUAL ALARM ACTIVATION ( PSEUDO ALARM )

Pressing the ALARM and CAMERA number (of the alarm) key simultaneously can activate a single camera recording. This will cause the alarm number corresponding to camera number selected to activate. The pre-programmed alarm responses will activate automatically through this manual activation. The programmed param eters for the alarm, such as latc hing mode, buzzer setting and relays will determine the alarm actions.

In addition, the camera associated with the alarm will be recorded as programmed. To deactivate this function, simply reset the alarm as normal by pressing the ALARM key.

3.4.2 ALARM DISPLAYS IN LIVE MODE

During alarms in Live mode, Monitor-A will automatically switch to a full-screen view of the cameras in alarm. Monitor-B is simultaneously switched full-screen to the camera in alarm.

NOTE:

If the operator changes the screen format while an alarm is active, then the unit will continue to display the operator’s selection after the alarm clears - it will not revert to the pre-alarm screen display.

Monitors A and B Full-Screen during alarms:

During alarms in Live mode, Monitors A and B will automatically switch to a full-s creen display of the camera in alarm . If multiple alarms are ac tive, Monitors A and B will automatically sequence between the alarm cameras at a f ix ed 1-s ec ond dwell. T his dwell is not pr ogrammable. MonitorB cannot freeze images.

NOTE:

The alarm sc reen on Monitor-A will be displayed only while an alarm is active. Onc e an alarm times out or is cleared, the display will automatically revert to the screen displayed before the alarm. It is hence very important that the installer selects the best alarm-latching mode for alarm displays.

The Monitor-B screen will not revert to its original fixed display after the alarm is cleared. It will continue to display the last alarm cam era. However if sequencing

26 JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS

was active on Monitor-B before the alarm, then Monitor-B will continue to sequenc e after the alarm is cleared.

3.4.3 ALARM DISPLAYS IN PLAY MODE

Monitor-A during Play mode - Recorded Alarms:

In the Play mode the Monitor-A display will not automatically provide custom alarm displays based on recorded alarm status. Monitor-A will display the Playback images from the VCR according to operator selected f ormats, and will display the normal “A” alarm indicator only if a camera was in alarm at the time that a recording was made.

CAUTION:

Monitor-B during Play mode:

Monitor-B will continue to display Live images, according to the operator’s s election. If a Live alarm occurs dur ing Play mode, Monitor -B will autom atic ally switch to the c amera in alarm. It will sequence at a 1 second dwell time for multiple cameras in alarm. After the operator has canceled the alarm, Monitor-B will continue to dis play the alarm camera that was on the screen at the time that the alarm was canceled, or will continue to sequence if sequencing was enabled.

Alarm LED and Internal buzzer in PLAY Mode:

The LED and internal buzzer alarm indicators will be activated only if a Live alarm is active. Alarm status Played back from a recorded tape has no effect on these indic ators. The internal buzzer can be disabled via an installer programmed menu item.

If a camera that had an alarm at the time of recording is not selected by the operator for display, there will be no on-screen indication at all that the alarm occurred. Thus if an operator is look ing for cam eras in alarm dur ing Playback, ensure that all cameras on tape are displayed by using a 9-channel multi-screen.

offers motion detection capabilities, including built-in Activity Detection. Activity

3.5.1 ACTIVITY DETECTION

Activity detection simply looks for changes in the luminance in various selected areas of the screen, and if changes are above a s et threshold (sens itivity) then the activity detector interprets that to be activity. Typically, activity detection is used to detect activity in crowded areas, where activity is not the result of intruders and where human traffic is normal and expected.

If activity is detected the programmed s ettings. If a relay has been programmed to be activated, then it will respond as programmed until the activity ceases.

Indicators:

Page 43

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

There is a QUICKINSTALL section that gives the programm er a basic set of menu item s to set up. This allows for a quick installation setup.

The MAIN MENU section gives the programmer ac cess to all the programmable options, in logic al sub-sections. This is described in more detail below.

NOTE:

Each section in this manual will give a description of choices that are program mable in the MAIN MENU. It is recomm ended that the corresponding section in the m anual be read before starting to program the options in the menus.

4.3 BATTERY BACKED-UP MEMORY FOR MENU OPTIONS

Menu option selections are automatically saved to battery backed-up m emory as they are made. In general, the battery has a 5-year shelf life and can retain memory in the unit even if the unit is powered down for several months.

If a unit is to be powered down for any extended time (3 months or longer) then the battery should be removed during power down, and replaced when the unit is ready to be put back into service. Alternatively, install a new battery when a unit has been powered down for an extended time. Contact the factory for further details on battery replacement/removal.

CAUTION:

All data will be lost if the battery is removed, and the system will revert to factory defaults.

4.4 NAVIGATING THE FOUR MENU LEVELS

The programm er has four menu levels, designed in suc h a way as to make it very easy to navigate around the menu choices. The best way to understand the menu system is to use it, with the m anual handy for reference.

In general, the ENTER key is used to go down to the next level of menu detail, and the MENU key is used to ‘escape’ up to the next higher level of the menus without making any changes.

Main Menu Level:

This is a list all sub-menus, each of which can be individually accessed by the programmer. The sub-menus are arranged into logical menu sections. To access a sub-menu from the MAIN MENU, use the arrow keys to select the desired section and then press the ENTER key.

Pull-Down Menus:

Pull-Down menus are the first sub-menu levels. If additional choices are available in that section, they are typically Pop-Up menus. Pull-Down menus can be exited either by selecting EXIT and then pressing the ENTER k ey, or by pressing the MENU key.

Pop-Up Menus:

Pop-Up menus are the last levels in the sub-menus. In general, use the left/right arrow keys to enter sections in the Pop-Up menu and then use the up/down arrow keys to make changes to the values. There are however some Pop-Up menus where the arrow keys have additional functionality.

You may wish to review the description of “How multiplexed recording works” in Section 2.0.

RECORD LIST

A programmer programmed RECORD LIST controls the sequence in which the single fields from each camera are multiplexed to the VCR during record mode.

The list can contain any camera s everal tim es. F or exam ple, if the list is set to the equivalent of “1 2 3 3 3 4 5 6 7 8 5__”, then camera 3 will be recorded once in the recor d list c ycle, but for three tim es the selected dwell time, and camera 5 will be recorded twice in the cycle. For a multiplexer, the programming f or cam er a 5 is the pref err ed way to repeat a camera becaus e it results in m ore evenly spaced updates for that cam era. Repeat a cam era only if it should normally have priority over other cameras in the list.

A blank entry ends the list. For example a list s et to the equivalent of “1 2 3 _ 5 6 7 8 _” will only record cameras 1, 2 and 3. The first ‘blank’ after the ‘3’ ends the record list.

Automatic modification of the record list:

NOTE:

NORMAL AND ALARM RECORD SPEEDS

Unless VEXT (see 2.2) is used, it is important that the record speeds as those to which the VCR has been set for NORMAL and ALARM recording.

Time-lapse VCRs are usually capable of dual speed operation, allowing two different speeds of recording during NORMAL operation and ALARM situations. The ALARM recording speed are usually the faster speed and normally the fastest that the recorder will go, which is the 2 HR speed setting for EIA. Normal tim e-lapse recording is typically set to a slower speed, s uch as 12 hour to 960 hour, resulting in a tape saving while no alarm events are occurring. If the VCR switch input (VEXT) is not active (s ee VCR SETUP sub-menu), then the recording speeds in the menus must match those set in the VCR. The factory default setting is 2 hour for NTSC/EIA.

If alarms and activity detection occur at the sam e time, the alarm’s m odifications to the record list will take precedenc e and will cancel all modifications m ade to the record list via activity detection. (Refer to the Alarm and Motion Detection sections in this manual for more detail.)

An active alarm input can result in an on-screen indication on both Monitor-A and Monitor-B, a flashing front panel LED, an internal buzzer and automatic modification of the record list to give the camera in alarm a higher update rate.

This menu item is for alarm inputs. You can specify whether the input for eac h camera is normally open or normally closed and if the alarms are latched on (remain active until reset), latched off (transparent – no buzzer or indicator), or timed out ( active until a preset time expire s). In addition, you may program output relay actions, recording parameters and actions.

MANUAL ALARM ACTIVATION ( PSEUDO ALARM )

Pressing the ALARM and CAMERA number (of the alarm ) key simultaneously can activate a single camera recording. This will cause the alarm number corresponding to camera number selected to activate.

The pre-programmed alarm responses will activate automatically through this manual activation. The programmed parameters for the alarm, such as latching mode, buzzer setting and relays will determine the alarm actions. In addition, the camera ass ociated with the alarm will be recorded as programmed.

To deactivate this function, simply reset the alarm as normal by pressing the ALARM key.

You can also specify how the images from the alarmed cameras are to be recorded (interleaved, exclusive or no change) and whether som e or all of the alarms ar e to be enabled or disabled. You can view alarm history for the last 100 alarm and specify whether the unit’s alarm output r elays are normally open or normally closed.

INPUT CONFIGURATION

The alarm inputs are c onfigured as zero potential relay contacts, individually programm able via the menu to be normally open (NO) or normally closed (N/C). The factory default is N/O for all inputs.

ALARM LATCH

There are three ways of alarm latching:

Latched until the operator cancels it,

Latched for a pre-set time (timed out), or

Not latched (Transparent)

Alarm latching is controlled by a single setting (global) .

Latched alarms:

Alarms are latched as they becom e active. An alarm will stay active until the operator ack nowledges it. There is no time out period. When the operator acknowledges the alarm, it will be cleared whether the alarm input is still active or not. Alar ms that have been acknowledged by the operator will not be reactivated unless the alarm input has ceased and then restarts.

Timed out alarms:

Timed out alarms are latched for a pre-set time out period from the start of the alarm becoming active. After expiration of the tim e out period, the alarm is automatically cleared unless the alarm input is still active. The time out period is programmable in the menu by the programmer.

If an alarm input is still active after the time out, the alarm will stay active while the input is active, and then clear immediately that the alarm is inac tive. Alarms that cease and restart befor e the time out is complete, will restart the time out period.

Timed out alarms can be cleared by the operator at any time. Like latched alarms, if the operator cancels the alarm, it will be cleared whether the alar m input is still active or not. Alarms that ar e cleared by the operator before their inputs have ceased, will not be r eactivated until the alarm input ceases and restarts.

Transparent alarms (Not latched):

Alarms are active only while the alarm input is ac tive. As soon as the alar m-input ceases, the alarm will be automatically cleared.

NOTE:

The operator cannot clear A Transparent alarm. It will remain active as long as the corresponding alarm input is active.

Application Note:

JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS 51

Page 52

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

If it is necessary for the operator to be able to clear active alarms, and Transparent mode is preferred, then rather select timed-out alarms instead of transparent alarms in the ALARM LATCHING menu, and set the time out period to 1 second.

ALARM ACTION

The

On alarm activation:

A full-screen image of the camera in alarm will automatically appear on Monitor-B.

Monitor-A will automatically switch to pre-programmed quad display for a single alarm. In addition, a different pre-programmed multi-screen display for multiple, simultaneous alarm occurrences may be displayed.

The programmer can program the unit to automatically freeze the camera-in-alarm at the instant of alarm.

Each alarm input can be programmed by the programmer to activate either one or both of the Alarm Output Relays.

Simple menu tables make it quick and easy for the programmer to select the desired alarm action for each camera.

provides extensive alarm handling capability:

Alarm Action Set-Up:

The programm er can program the ‘cam era in alarm’ and three ‘associated cameras’ which will be most useful to view with the alarm cam era, using the ALARM ACTION s ection of the ALARMS submenu. This allows the programmer to program any 4 camera numbers. The f irst camera number will define the camera in alarm on Monitor-A and Monitor-B.

The factory default for the cam era in alarm is the camera having the sam e number as the alarm input. (For example, the camera in alarm factory default for alarm input #6 will be camera #6.)

The factory defaults for associated cameras will be the camera bef ore the camer a in alarm, plus the two cameras

after

the camera in alarm.

Example:

The default for associated c ameras for c amera #6 will be 5, 7 and 8, while the default f or assoc iated cameras for cam era #1 will be 16, 2, 3. The three autom atic custom alarm screens are as fo llows, depending on the number of active alarms:

Displays for more than 3 simultaneous alarms:

If more than 3 alarms are active at the sam e tim e, the

SW-D7000U

will automatically select a display format which is able to show all the cameras in alar m. Associated camer as will not be selected for display, and alarms will not be frozen. This will be a 9-way display. As each new alarm is rec eived, the unit will automatically adjust the display.

Freezing Alarms on Monitor-A in Live Mode

The programmer can choose to have the camera in alarm frozen at the instant of the alarm. Use the YES/NO selection under FRZ in the ALARM ACTION section of the ALARMS sub-menu to select this option. The factory default for all alarm inputs is that the cam era-in-alarm will be frozen when an alarm input is received.

52 JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS

Page 53

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

NOTE:

The associated cameras are not frozen at the instant of alar m. This allows the programm er to f r eeze the instant of alarm and still continue to track ongoing activity on the same screen.

Application Note:

If the programmer programs one of the associated cameras to the same camera number as the camera in alarm, then this feature can be used to have a frozen image of the camera in alarm as well as a Live image of that alarm c amera on Monitor-A at the same tim e. This is not needed if Monitor-B is installed.

A customized alarm display will be selected automatically by the multiplexer, depending on the number of sim ultaneous alarm inputs, to show all cam eras in alarm , plus ass ociated cam eras. The custom screens are automatic for up to 3 simultaneous alarms.

If additional alarms are received while some cameras are already frozen, then all frozen cameras will be unfrozen and re-frozen at the instant that the new alarm input was received.

NOTE:

MON-B Full-Screen during alarms:

During alarms, Monitor-B will automatically switch to a full-screen dis play of the camera in alarm . If multiple alarms are active, Monitor-B will automatically sequence between the alarm c ameras at a fixed 1 second dwell. This dwell is not programmable. Monitor-B cannot freeze images.

NOTE:

Fullscreen Alarm:

In the event that the programmer does not install Monitor-B, and relies solely on Monitor-A for all system information, a full-scr een alarm display on Monitor-A may be preferred to the custom multiscreen displays.

The custom alarm screens on Monitor-A will be displayed only while an alarm is active. Once an alarm times out or is cleared, the display will automatically revert to the screen displayed before the alarm. It is very important to select the best alarm latching m ode for alarm displays.

The Monitor-B screen will not revert to its original fixed display after the alarm is cleared. It will continue to display the last alarm camera. However if sequencing was active on Monitor-B before the alarm, then Monitor-B will continue to sequence after the alarm is cleared.

In this case, the programm er can select a menu option in the Monitor-A to switch to a full-screen display of the camera in alarm, and sequence full-screen between multiple alarms, exactly as Monitor-B normally does. The custom alarm screens will not appear. (This is a global setting for all cameras).

A single full-screen alarm will be frozen, if the option was selected in the

menus.

However this option will be ignored for multiple full-screen alarms on Monitor-A.

EXTERNAL ALARM ACTIONS (RELAY OUTPUTS)

Two alarm relay outputs are provided to enable the programmer to program automatic external actions such as a speed change on the VCR, or alarm f loodlights or sirens. T he alarm relay outputs are rated at 500 mA. They are provided in either the norm ally open (N/O) and norm ally closed (N/C) configuration on the rear panel of the unit (programmable), and are isolated.

The alarm relays can be activated by motion detection, by active alarms, by video loss, or by MACRO functions. The choice of which relay is activated by which event is selectable via the menus.

Selecting the Relay Outputs linked to Alarm Inputs:

Once EXTERNAL ALARM ACTION is selected, a menu will appear, allowing the programmer to select one of the following four choices for each alarm input:

None

Relay 1

Relay 2

Relay 1&2.

NOTE:

When making this selection, remember that video loss and motion detection can also be programmed to activate one of these output relays.

Factory default settings for Alarm Output Relays are:

All Alarm Inputs will activate Relay 1 All Activity Detection will activate Relay 2

Additional alarm output data:

SW-D7000U

The

also allows the programm er to read the status of alarm inputs for each cam era via

the RS-232 remote control port.

RECORD MODE

The programm er can select NORMAL r ecor ding, EX CLUSIVE rec or ding or INTERLEAVED recording to take place whenever an alarm occurs. The latter two m odes will always result in a faster update to tape of a camera in alarm . This is a system wide (

global

) setting, and is not set up individually for

each alarm input.

Normal:

NORMAL recording during alarms means that there is no priority recording f or the cam eras in alarm , and the record list will be unchanged while alarms are ac tive. However, the programm er can still program the VCR and the unit to switch from a time lapse s peed to a faster recording speed during alarms, which by itself can ensure that alarm events have a faster update speed.

Exclusive:

EXCLUSIVE recording will cause the system to record only alarmed cameras. All non-alarmed cameras are om itted from the record list while an alarm is active. EXCLUSIVE recording m ode is typically chosen only when several simultaneous alarms can be expec ted to occur very often, and where a near real-time record of those alarm events are needed. T he disadvantage of choos ing this mode is that other cameras will not be recorded at all while any alarm is active.

54 JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS

Page 55

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

If EXCLUSIVE alarm recording is selected, then the alarm-input sensors used need to be:

very comprehensive, so that alarm events are not missed, and

reliable, so that the system does not start exclusive alarm mode recordings for false alarms.

NOTE:

If only one camera is in alarm and the alar m speed is set to the 2 hour m ode, then the unit will automatically select INTERLEAVED recording even though EXCLUSIVE mode is selected.

Interleaved:

During INTERLEAVED recording both the alarmed cameras and non-alarmed cameras are recorded, but alarmed cameras, having a higher priority, are interleaved between non-alarmed cameras. INTERLEAVED mode offers increas ed recording of cam e ras in alarm , without stopping the recording of other cameras. This is the mode recommended for most installations.

Example:

Non-alarmed cameras: 1,2,3,5,7 Cameras in alarm: 4,6

NOTE:

Because of the fast update rate of the SW-D7000U, if one camera is in alarm then

INTERLEAVED recording sequence:

1,4,6,2,4,6,3,4,6,5,4,6,7,4,6,1, ....etc.

INTERLEAVED mode will result in real-time Playback of the camera in alarm. In general, on the SW - D7000U, INTERLEAVED recording will give very fast update speeds of cameras in alarm even for multiple alarms.

INTERLEAVED mode is the

recommended setting.

ENABLE / DISABLE

Any alarm input can be set up as being active (enabled) or inactive (disabled). In this option you may select:

INDVIDUAL ENABLE ENABLE ALL DISABLE ALL

ALARM HISTORY

An alarm history is kept in a cyclic buff er. His tory data, including cam era number and tim e and date is kept in memory for up to 100 events. The m os t recent 100 alar m events can be viewed on-s creen in the menus, by selecting the ALARMS menu and then selecting ALARM HISTORY. A table will appear, allowing the programmer to browse forward and backwards among the last 100 alarmed events. Each event relates is recorded with the Alarm #, Date, Time and Relay #. The RS-232 remote control capability also allows an operator to upload the alarm history to a PC or a similar controlling device.

LINK TO A MACRO

Any alarm input can be linked to any macro function. This can be us ed to start a pre-programm ed sequence of keystrokes each tim e an alarm occurs . Several alarm inputs can be link ed to the sam e macro function. To link alarm inputs to macro functions, use the LINK TO MACRO menu in the ALARMS sub-menu.

JVC PROFESSIONAL, IMAGING PRODUCTS 55

NOTE:

The system will always complete normal alarm action before executing the macro function.

FULLSCREEN ALARM

This option allows setting the system to display only a FULLSCREEN image on Monitor-A instead of the default multiscreen (or associated alarm camera displays) for any alarm input. See section 4.9.

NOTE:

This is a

global

setting and will apply to ALL alarms.

RELAY CONFIGURATION

Each relay (1 & 2) can be configured for N/OPEN (normally open NO) or N/CLOSED (normally closed NC). This menu item allows selection of either NC or NO configuration.

BUZZER SETUP

The internal buzzer is programmable to respond under various conditions. The s ub- menu item under ALARMS is as follows:

Buzzer Setup

Global Buzzer :ON Live Alarm Buzzer :ON Videoloss Buzzer :ON Playback Buzzer :ON

[CANCEL] [OK]

Global Buzzer – Set to OFF if some Buzzer responses are not to be active.

Live Alarm Buzzer – Set to OFF if no Buzzer is desired on incoming Live Alarms.

Video loss Buzzer – Set to OFF if no Buzzer is desired on video loss detection

Playback Buzzer – Set to OFF if no Buzzer is desired on during the playback of

Videotapes where alarms are present.

VIDEO LOSS ACTION

This option is used to specif y what is to happen in the event of los s of a video input. Video loss c an occur due to a failed camera or disconnection of the video signal to the multiplexer.

Video Loss action in LIVE Mode:

Monitor-A: If the camera is being displayed at the time that video loss occurs, the cam era image

will be frozen. However, if sequencing is in progress, the display will be blanked when it is switched to a camera experiencing video loss.

Monitor-B: Monitor-B cannot freeze images, and so the display will always be blanked while a

camera with video loss is selected.

Video Loss action in RECORD Mode:

When video loss is detected, the affected camera is temporarily removed from the record list, and the coded digital data recorded with each field will be updated to indicate a video loss situation on the affected camer a. This video loss s tatus is then s hown during Playback. T he

Recording new Menu Setups during MACRO RECORD:

If the programmer presses the MENU key during macro recording, recording of keystrokes is stopped. Instead of recording keystrokes while in the menus, the programmer only records the final setting of each setup parameter for thos e sub-menus , which are accessed by the programmer. Each time the MENU key is pressed it is counted as one keystroke in the MACRO.

Upon Playback of the macro, the unit will retrieve only those recorded menu setup param eters, and will set the unit up accordingly. Parameters in sub-menus, which were not accessed during recording of the macros, will not be recorded or retrieved during Playback of the macro.

These new menu setups can be ac tivated manually or automatically by time and day (see MACRO TIMED START) or on Alarm (see ALARM SETUP). Typical uses of this unique MACRO feature are;

4.11 MOTION DETECTION

SW-D7000U

The difference between Intrusion detection and Activity detection:

When digital video motion detection is used, it is important to know the difference between simple activity detection and intrusion detection.

Activity detection:

Activity detection simply looks for changes in the luminance in var ious selected areas of the s creen, and if changes are above a set threshold (s ensitivity) then the activity detector interprets that to be activity. Typically, activity detection is used to detect activity in crowded areas, where activity is not the result of intruders and where human traffic is normal and expected.

offers motion detection capabilities, including built-in Activity Detection. Activity

Intrusion detection:

Intrusion detection looks for real m ovem ent in the s cene, and rais es an alarm if it is f ound. It is us ed to monitor areas where no human traff ic is allowed or expected, and so when movem ent is found it will be likely that it was caused by an intruder, and so an alarm should result. It is henc e important that intrusion detectors do not cause f alse alarms, resulting f rom light changes , camera vibr ation or random reflections of light in the scene. An ability to reduce false m otion alarms , in areas where no motion is expected, is the key difference between intrusion detection and activity detection.

Upon selection of the MOTION DETECTION menu item, the following pull-down sub-menu appears:

Enable / Disable Detection Setup Active Zones Indicate Detection Activity / Intrusion Setup Parameters

Exit

ENABLE / DISABLE DETECTION

Each camera has the MOTION DETECTION function disabled when the unit is first powered up (Factory default). The first s etup item, which should be done by a programmer, is to enable the cameras.

Select the ENABLE/DISABLE DETECTION section of the MOTI ON DETECTION sub- menu and the following menu appears:

SETUP ACTIVE ZONES

Select the SETUP ACTIVE ZONES s ub-menu and select the camer a to s etup. O nce you select the camera and press ENTER you will move to the screen showing 256 zones arranged in a 16 x 16 grid to be enabled or disabled. T he f ac tor y default is that all zones are enabled.

NOTE:

All cameras have motion completely disabled as detailed under ENABLE/DISABLE above. This must not be confused with enabling or disabling individual zones within the camera scene.

Recommendation:

Disable zones which may contain movement that is incidental or not important. Incidental motion c an include the possible movement of trees in the wind, vehicles in an adjacent street, allowable pedestrian areas, or areas with glass and other highly reflective surfaces which can be s ources of apparent motion via reflections.

Cursor

: The top left zone will have a flashing square indicator, known as the c ursor. The zone,

which has the flashing cursor, can be enabled or disabled. W hen the cursor reac hes the end of a line in the zone grid, it will automatically wrap around to the beginning of the next line.

Use the ALARM key to select either the ENABLE or DISABLE or NO ACTION m ode. The ALARM key toggles between the three possible zone setup modes, and the f lashing curs or will change color as follows:

No Action = Cursor color gray/white (flashing)

Enable Zones = Cursor color black/white (flashing)

Disable Zones = Cursor color clear/white (flashing)

In addition to the flashing cursor indicator, you will see on- screen text prom pts indicating the c ursor mode selected. The on-screen prompts shown during the zone setup are as follows:

Indications

To indicate whether each zone is enabled or disabled, enabled zones have a Grey “” indication and disabled zones have a clear indication inside the corresponding grid position.

SENSITIVITY SCOPE

Your multiplexer includes a helpful graphic representation of motion and the sensitivity settings to simplify motion detection set- up. You will a “Sensitivity Scope” on the left side lower portion of the image. This scope represents the s ensitivity setting you have selected in RED. A BLACK line that will move from bottom to top of the scope when movement occurs represents the actual motion/activity in the scene. W hen the BLACK line intersects with the RED line, a motion alarm is activated. In this mode, the sensitivity can be changed by selecting the number keys 1-10. In this way, the actual motion in the scene can be used to set the most appropriate sensitivity setting.

Exit SETUP ACTIVE ZONES:

When all zones have been set up, the programmer can exit back to the MOTION DETECTION sub-menu. Press ENTER and all changes will be saved as they were made.

INDICATE DETECTION

This option in the MOTION DET ECTION sub-menu is used to activate the indic ator

‘M’

for motion detection on Monitor-A. The factory default setting is set to activate the indicator. If you desire the on-screen indicator not to display when motion is detected then select NO in the sub-m enu. This is

“global”

setting and will affect all cameras with enabled motion detection.

If motion has been turned on, but there is no when motion is present, check the SETUP ACTIVE ZONES and the sens itivity settings as detailed below.

ACTIVITY / INTRUSION

The SETUP PARAMETERS for motion detection ( sensitivity, target size, false alarm rejection, record rate, output relays and links to alarm inputs), are chosen on a camera-by-camera basis. The parameters available for each camera in this menu item will depend on whether INTRUSION DETECTION or ACTIVITY DETECTION is the intended use of that camera.

Sensitivity:

The motion detection sensitivity on each camera can be set to levels of 1-10. T his setting is s et on a camera-by-camera basis, and applies to all the ENABLED zones in any particular camera scene.

Each of the 256 zones (16 x 16 grid) stores 256 grey levels of discrimination, averaged over the zone’s area. Changes in the 256 grey levels in a zone can be set as follows:

1 = least sensitive setting = detect change of 100 of 256 grey levels in a zone, averaged over a zone.

10 = most sensitive setting = detec t change of 5 of 256 grey levels in a zone, averaged over a zone.

NOTE:

Recommendations

When setting sens itivity, choose the highest s etting that does not r es ult in very frequent ‘f als e’ motion detections. The higher the sensitivity, the more likely it is that incidental movem ent will be detected as motion, so if motion is indicated without apparent cause, reduce the sensitivity.

The highest sensitivity of 10 is only reasonable if the video signal has extremely low noise. (The factory default sensitivity setting is 5, for all cameras.)

When setting high sensitivity, such as 8, 9 or 10, it is important to ensure that sources of false motion, such as trees and bushes which m ay move in the wind, or windows which can reflect f lashes of light, are eliminated from detection if possible. To do this, DISABLE the corresponding zones as described above in SETUP ACTIVE ZONES.

Sensitivity Scope:

Refer to the description under SET UP ACTIVE ZONES sub-m enu for further information on setting sensitivity.

Record Rate:

(This setting is only used in ACTIVITY DETECTION).

Your multiplexer shares one VCR between m any cameras. As a result, the video from a camera which normally provides 60 fields a second must be time s liced and reduced to a rate of far fewer fields every second to allow the other cameras to insert fields into the same video stream going to the VCR. (Refer to the explanatory figure in the RECORDING section of this manual.)

The lowered update rate for each camera is not a problem if there is little movement in the scene, but if there is activity in the camera view it is always preferable to get as many updated fields of the activity as possible so that important activity events are recorded.

SW-D7000U

The

solves this dilemma in two ways:

1. It has a very fast, optimized update rate to tape, which at 2-hour alar m speeds is about 3

times faster than most other multiplexers.

2. It allows the rate of update of each camera to tape to be automatically adjusted by the

system if there is ongoing motion within a camera’s field of view. In this way, cameras without activity are recorded less often and cameras with frequent and continuous activity are recorded more often and so can capture more of the activity.

A unique feature of the

SW-D7000U

is that the increase in update rate can be set by the programmer in this RECORD RATE sub-m enu. Cameras with activity can be recorded twice ( 2X) as often they would normally be recorded, or four times (4X) as often, or they can be INTERLEAVED. This allows programmers the flexibility to set up the system according to the requirements of their particular installation.

NOTE:

The record list and record r ate can also be modified by an active alarm. A record list update resulting from an active alarm input will always override any record list modifications which resulted f rom s ensing activity. (See ALARMS s ub-menu RECORD MODE)

There are four choices of RECORD RATE for activity:

NONE - If most cameras are expected to have m otion at the same time, or if the par ticular camera scene is not important yet has a lot of motion.

2X - If not all cameras are connected.

4X - The factory default setting.

INTERLEAVED - If very few cameras will have motion at any one time.

Relay Output:

Two relay outputs are provided to enable the programmer to program automatic external actions such as a speed change on the VCR, or floodlights, or audio announcements and so on. T he relay outputs are rated at 500 mA. They are provided in both the normally open (N/O) and nor mally closed (N/C) configuration on the rear panel of the unit, and are isolated.

The two relays can be activated by activity detection, by active alarms, video loss or by Macro functions. There are four choices on relay output for ACTIVITY on each camera:

None – no relay is activated

Relay 1

Relay 2

Relay 1&2.

The factory default setting for Alarm Output Relays is as follows:

NOTE:

The menu for INTRUSION PARAMETERS SETUP appears as:

Settings of INTRUSION param eters are very important for correct detection by the system. Read the following section carefully.

Intrusion Parameters Setup

Camera : 01 Sensitivity : 05 Rejection : LOW Target Size : 001 Link to Alarm : 01

[CANCEL] [OK]

Sensitivity:

Refer to instructions above for ACTIVITY.

Recommendations:

When choosing sensitivity, choose the highest setting that does not result in very frequent ‘false’ motion detections, while the FALSE ALARM REJECTION setting is on ‘LOW’, and the TARGET SIZE is set correctly. (See below). The higher the sensitivity, the more likely it is that incidental movement will be detected as m otion, so if motion is indicated without apparent cause, reduce the sensitivity. Do no use sensitivity level 10 with INTRUSION, and use level 9 carefully.

When setting high sensitivity, such as 8, 9 or 10, it is very important to ensure that sources of false motion, such as trees and bushes which m ay move in the wind, or windows which can reflect f lashes of light, are eliminated from detection if possible. To do this, DISABLE the corresponding zones as described above in SETUP ACTIVE ZONES. Only after the sensitivity is set to its reasonable maximum should the programmer adjust the False Alarm Rejection as needed.

Rejection (False Alarm):

(This setup is only used for INTRUSION detection.) Motion detection and false alarms will var y from scene to scene, but processing to reduce false alarms can of ten result in reduced motion detection sensitivity. To optimize performance, the levels of false alarm rejection separately for each camera as follows:

LOW

MEDIUM

HIGH

The factory default setting is LOW, for all cameras.

If the sensitivity of the motion detection is adequate to detect the intended targets, and there are few false alarms.

If there are frequent false alarms resulting from changes in light or similar apparent movement over the whole cam era scene. This c an be caused by lights being turned on and off, objects pass ing very close to the cam era lens, camera vibration, or the sun going behind clouds.

If there are frequent false alarm s resulting from f lashes of light on reflective surf aces, or infrequent fast moving objects such as birds. Also changes in light as above should be considered. If using the HIGH setting, check the recommendation for Lens Selection below.

SW-D7000U

allows the programmer to choose one of three

incidental movement, suc h as trees which may move in the wind, highly reflective surfaces like windows or stretches of water, and traffic or pedestrians in the background.

Selecting the false alarm r ejection level: It is recom mended that the fa lse alarm rejec tion setting is left on LOW . Before changing the setting to MEDIUM or HIGH to reduce false alar ms, first check that the sensitivity, target size and zones are set up correctly. Do not select a higher false alarm rejection level unless it is necessary.

Target Size:

(This setup is only used for intrusion detection.) T he s ize of a target f or motion detection (normally a human being) will vary depending on the camera lens and the distanc e f r om the camera. In general, if size discrimination is used during the detection of m otion, m otion detection will result in f ewer false alarms from small animals, m ovement of plants in the wind or reflec tions. ‘TARGET SIZE’ def ines the minimum size.

SW-D7000U

The programmer can set the TARGET SIZE separately for each cam er a, between 1 and 256. The fac tory default target size setting is 1. This m eans that all sizes of targets will result in motion detection if the sensitivity is set up correctly.

Setting TARGET SIZE:

Estimate how many zones the target will normally fill based on the c amera view, and then enter that number as the target size.

target size setting is related to the number of zones that a single target will fill. The

Example:

If a human normally fills a 5 x 2 grid on a partic ular cam er a scene, which is 10 zones, then the target size for that camera should be entered as 10.

Recommendation:

Set the target size to the lowest reasonable setting for the target and the cam er a s cene, unles s fals e alarms from smaller targets are common. For more r eliable intrus ion detec tion, the target size should preferably be set to

at least 2

Recommended LENS SELECTION for Intrusion Detection:

Select a lens so that a human will always fill 2 or more zones in the camera scene.

Select the lens and field of view so that the Target will normally remain in the f ield of view for at least two seconds, at expected target speeds.

NOTE:

The sensitivity setting can affect the degree of detection within each zone, and must be adjusted together with the target size for best performance.

Link to Alarm:

(This setup is only used for INTRUSIO N detection.) The camera can be used as a s ensor to activate any of the alarm inputs. The

SW-D7000U’s

motion detection for each

SW-D7000U

allows the programmer to link the internal motion detection directly to the unit’s rear panel alarm to create a motion based alarm s ensor input. No physical wiring is needed to link to an alarm input, just the menu entry.

SW-D7000U

If an

alarm input is activated by one of the channels, the unit will react in exactly the same way as for any other external sensor activating that alarm input. The system does not differentiate between an input from another alarm sens or and the input activated by the link from the internal motion detection.

SW-D7000U, 9CH. COLOR VIDEO MULTIPLEXER

Because the

SW-D7000U’s

internal motion detection can be set up to be m ore eff ective than simple activity detection, it can be used to replace a separate external motion detector and hence will save the user that cost in most installations . Detection of intruders is normally only set up in areas where there is little or no expected movement. In high traffic areas, intrusion detection is not a feasible application of motion detection.

NOTE:

Some outdoor environments can have very complex intrusion detection requirements. In those cases, it is preferable to use a motion detector intended specifically for complex outdoor situations.

Linking INTRUSION to Alarms:

Select the Alarm number which is to be activated (1-9) in the sub-menu. Remember that if motion is linked to alarm s then, because the alarm input record list always takes

priority over the activity record list, the alarm record list will be used. T he activity record list will be ignored while an alarm is active, even if that alarm results from motion linked to an alarm input.

Linking INTRUSION to Macro functions:

Intrusion detection can be linked indirec tly to a macro, by linking an alarm input which has been s et to start macros. (See LINK TO MACROS sub-menu in ALARMS section)

In Figure 3, the camera’s lens or its AG C is out of adjustment, resulting in high luminance levels. As a r es ult, detail in the scene is likely to be lost during multiplexed recording, and video motion detection will be ineffective.

Benefits of the camera scope:

An inexperienced installer can use it to chec k the input video signals to the multiplexer, without the need for additional signal measur ing equipment and its associated cost. T his is especially useful if intrusion detection is intended.

Troubleshooting of the system after installation is simplified.

If a problem is reported f or the s ystem, the cam er a sc ope dis plays are so sim ple that a technical support person who is remote from the site can easily get an untrained person on the site to describe the camera s copes. This will then enable a diagnosis to be made without incurring the time and expense of a visit to the site.

4.14 VCR SETUP

This option is used to specify the type of VCR that is connected to the multiplexer. You can also define the VCR as to whether it has a switch input (VEXT) and negative or pos itive leading edge. The choices are;

SWITCH INPUT ON/OFF

Most time lapse VCRs provide a hard-wired pulse output to devices such as the multiplexer, indicating that the VCR has just com pleted rec ording of one field of the current camera. This lets the multiplexer know that it can switch to a new camera input. This feature simplif ies the programm er's installation since it automatically takes c are of synchronizing the norm al and alarm recor d speeds of

You can select a Negative Edge or Positive Edge for the pulse edge used for the Switch/VEXT input.

CAUTION:

SIGNAL LEVEL

There are different s ignal levels f rom dif ferent types of tim e laps e VCRs. T he m ultiplex er is des igned to operate with all commonly available time lapse VCRs (type B). There are some less common VCRs (type A, type C) which have different signal levels. The multiplexer has a menu switch to change between VCR types in the VCR Set-up sub-menu.

On power up, the auto-detection circuit will wait about 15 seconds to check if the VCR starts to output a switch pulse. The period of 15 seconds is approxim ately the period between switch pulses when the VCR is running in 960-hour mode. During this brief time the multiplexer will not switch cameras at all unless a switch pulse is detected. If the switch pulse ceases, the multiplexer will also take about 15 seconds to determine that it has in fact stopped and not just changed to 960-hour mode.

4.15 COMMUNICATIONS

This option is used to specify the baud rate to be used for the RS-232 serial port and the unit’s network address for RS485 communications.

RS232

RS-232 remote control is through a D-sub 9pin connector on the rear panel. This is used to provide programmable rem ote control from a PC or similar controller . The programm er is able to set up all menu functions and also control front panel controls via the RS-232 port.

Functions included are:

For networks longer than 30 feet, you must terminate the network at each end for it to work reliably. The network is polarity dependent, so you must connect pin 3 to pin 3 and pin 4 to pin 4. Do not reverse the polarity of the network.

Do NOT use the DC 12V power leads in the RS-485 cable UNLESS it is to be us ed on a one-to-one connection between a unit with DC 12V power and a unit with no DC 12V power. For example, from a multiplexer directly to a keyboard that does not have its own power source. In all other circumstances , such as m ulti-dropped m ultiplexers , do NOT us e the DC 12V power leads in the RS485 cable.

If you choose to power another unit (e.g. a single keyboard), you can do this up to 30 feet from the multiplexer. Use a 4-core shielded cable, equivalent to Belden 8723.

For more detail on the remote keyboard, refer to the
