Features

DX-TL5000U is a digital recorder that is equipped with HDD as its main memory and 16ch triplex multiplexer. Addition to these features, this system has a very sophisticated video signal and data processing technique that provides high quality picture, stable operation and reliability. The graphical user interface and pointing devices make the operation very easy and comfortable in live monitoring and also in the handling of data from recording to export. The system offers excellent performance and has features to suit many video surveillance applications.

Refresh rates of 960pps*/system

Thanks to the newly developed multiplexing circuit, every camera can be viewed at 60 pps refresh rate in all screen formats.

pps* : picture per second

Triplex

User can view live and playback images on the same monitor in all screen multi-split layouts without disrupting recording.

Dual Multiplexer Outputs

The DX-TL5000U has two video outputs (Output A / B), and both of the outputs can show single-screen, 4, 9, 10, 13 and 16 split-screen, Switched Cameras, Alarmed Camera in live mode and Recorded pictures. On Screen Menu are shown only on monitor Output A. It is also possible to view playback pictures of different cameras at the same time with these two video outputs.

Covert Camera Function

It is possible to hide pictures of selected cameras that are installed in sensitive areas and should only be viewed by authorized personnel. It can be switched by <Multiplexer Setting>.

GUI

MENU, GUI (Graphical User Interface), guides the operators to their desired menu pages quickly. If the users need additional information on MENU functions, just press the HELP key and instructions will appear on screen. The menu supports English, French, and Spanish. Function keys on the front panel or USB mouse can operate the menu on the DX-TL5000U.

Recording rate up to 240 pps/system

Because of the new recording circuit and compression chip, the maximum recording speed is 240 pps in total, this means that the system can record pictures with speed of up to 15 pps on all 16 channels. With this speed recorded pictures are seen by the eye as real-time.

JPEG2000

The system uses JPEG2000 compression. JPEG2000 is the standard and ideal compression method for still pictures. Because pictures are compressed to a user defined file size one by one, the estimated recording time calculated by the system automatically is very accurate. Special playback search functions and transmission over network also benefit from this compression method. File sizes for each picture quality are minimized to improve storage efficiency over previous models.

Individual Recording Setting

Recording speed and picture quality (picture file size) can be set for each camera individually, it is also possible to set alarm recording setting in addition to normal recording setting. By adjusting the recording speed and picture quality, it is possible to use HDD storage space efficiently.

Audio Recording

4ch audio inputs are featured. The audio such as cash register operation and conversation with customers can be recorded clearly together with the monitoring pictures.

Copy

The easiest way for users to make a copy of recorded picture data is to use the built in CD/DVD Drive on the DXTL5000U. Or, they can also use other digital media such as HDD, DVD(-R/RW)*, CD-R/RW* USB Memory etc… through Serial Bus Interface. It is also possible to connect SCSI devices through the optional SCSI interface or NAS (Network Attached Storage) through network.

DVD(-R/RW), CD-R/RW* : only one drive can be used (including built-in CD/DVD drive)

Cascading Connection

Cascading connection allows to users to view pictures and to hear sounds from multiple DX-TL5000U by operating via operations from the master unit.

Attaching or removing the HDD

Up to 3 HDDs can be mounted on this unit. Attaching, removing and replacing method of the HDDs are on the next page.

Precautions for attaching or removing the HDD

• Do not attach or remove the HDD unnecessarily. Attaching or removing the HDD of DX-TL5000U is intended to replace the faulty HDD or add the HDD when starting operation for the first time because of the structure of the connectors. It is not presumed to be used as a removable HDD.

• Make sure that the POWER button on the front panel and the MAIN switch on the rear panel are both turned OFF when attaching or removing the HDD. Wait at least 1 minute after turning off the power.

• Do not remove the top cover of the unit.

• When attaching multiple HDDs, attach in the order of HDD A, B, and C.

• Do not drop the HDD. Also do not put the metallic object such as a coin or a screw driver into the HDD tray.

• When a power failure occurs during recording, avoid adding, replacing or transporting the HDD as the recorded

data may be erased. In this case, turn the power back on to boot up the unit normally with the HDD that was being used at the time of the power failure attached. Then add, replace, or transport the HDD.

• HDD is very delicate. Handle the HDD with care and follow the precautions below because even a small shock may damage the internal components of the HDD.

• Do not place the HDD on a desk or a table directly. Put a thick cushion under the HDD because even a small

shock may damage the internal components of the HDD.

• Do not use an electric screwdriver. Vibrations and shocks caused by an electric screwdriver may damage the

internal components of the HDD.

• When replacing the HDD, do not knock the HDD with other components such as the another HDD and the HDD

tray.

• Do not knock the HDD with tools such as a driver when replacing the HDD.

• The following HDD has been tested and compatibility is ensured. This information is as of December 2004. Supply

of this HDD may be stopped or it may be changed without notice by its manufacturer. Consult your dealer for the latest information or use of other HDDs. When you attach multiple HDDs, normally use the HDDs of the same capacity and the same model name.

(Normal recording settings)

step1. Follow the steps 1 and 2 on page 97 to set the

recording camera, frame or field recording, recording rate, and picture grade for normal recording.

• After executing the camera check, the recording setting is made only for the camera numbers with the video signal input when using auto or easy setting.

• The continuous recordable time depending on the recording rate and the recording picture grade of normal recording is displayed as <Estimated Recording Time> on the bottom of the preview screen for normal recording.

• When the main device is partitioned, <Estimated Recording Time> shows the estimated recordable time for normal recording.

(Alarm recording settings)

step2. Set the frame or field recording, maximum recording

rate per camera, and picture grade for alarm recording.

Easy: Sets the frame or field recording, maximum recording rate per camera, and picture grade for alarm recording to the same settings for all the camera numbers. When the recording rate is set to “– – –” for all the camera numbers, this disables alarm recording. Set the desired settings and then select “Execute.”

• The preview screen appears automatically when the easy setting is executed.

Manual: Sets the frame or field recording, maximum recording rate, and picture grade for alarm recording individually for each camera number. When setting “– – –” for the recording rate, recording is disabled for that camera number.

• Select “View” and display the preview screen to check the settings you have set.

• The recording rate to be set for normal and alarm recordings are the maximum number of frames. The number may decrease depending on the number of cameras used for recording.

• The field recording and frame recording can be mixed. However, when the total number of fields and frames becomes nearly 240, the recording may not follow the setting. The priority of the recording rate setting is, frame recording > field recording > large recording rate > small recording rate > small camera number > large camera number.

• Make sure to check the settings in the preview screen after making the recording settings.

• When the picture is recorded at the maximum recording rate, a picture from the camera without recording cannot be checked through communication.

• When setting the frame recording, the recording rate display in the preview screen turns green.

• The recording rate display in the preview screen turns red when the value exceeds 240 pps in total.

step3. Select motion detection recording.

Alarm: Starts alarm recording when the motion is

detected. Normal: Starts normal recording when the motion is detected. The recording is executed at the picture grade and the recording rate set for normal recording. The recording is not registered in the alarm list.

step4. Set the alarm mode.

Alarm CH: When alarm signal is input, performs

alarm recording only by the cameras set for alarm recording. When there is an input of alarm signals from multiple sensors, alarm recording is performed by all the cameras to which alarm signals are input. Alarm Plus: When an alarm signal is input during normal recording, performs alarm recording by the camera and the recording rate set for alarm recording while all the other cameras perform recording at the normal recording rate. The available recording rate for alarm and normal recordings is up to 240 pps in total.

step5. Set the pre-alarm recording time in “Pre-Alarm

Duration.”

0 sec: Does not execute the pre-alarm recording.

• The pre-alarm recording time display turns red when the actual pre-alarm recording time becomes shorter than the set time depending on the alarm recording settings.

• When the pre-alarm recording time setting exceeds the maximum pre-alarm recordable time, the prealarm recording time display turns red. Set the time within the maximum recordable time. You can adjust the recording rate or picture grade for adjusting the pre-alarm recording time. Even if the time is set exceeding the maximum recordable time, the actual pre-alarm recording is performed for the maximum recordable time.

• When the alarm area is set, the alarm recording and pre-alarm recording are made in the alarm area. To playback the recorded data, set the <Select Source Device> to “Alarm.”

• In the case that the alarm recording mode for prealarm recording is set to “Alarm CH,” recording with all the camera numbers set for alarm recording may not be possible when pre-alarm recording is carried out during normal recording.

• To perform the pre-alarm recording by all the camera numbers set for alarm recording:

i) To perform with normal recording:

Set all the desired cameras for normal recording. Pre-alarm recording is performed at the picture grade and the recording rate set for normal recording.

ii) To perform with normal and alarm recordings:

Set the “Alarm Mode” to “Alarm Plus.” (Normal recording) Set all the desired cameras for

normal recording. Pre-alarm recording is performed at the picture grade and the recording rate set for normal recording.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

(Alarm recording) During alarm recording, prealarm recording is performed at the picture grade set for alarm recording. And for only the cameras used for alarm recording, pre-alarm recording is performed at the alarm recording rate.

iii) To perform with alarm recording:

Set the “Alarm Mode” to “Alarm Plus.” Pre-alarm recording is performed at the picture

grade and the recording rate set for alarm recording.

• Pre-alarm recording is executed with the recording rate and the picture grade of the normal or alarm recording set for that time period.

step6. Set the alarm recording time in “Post-Alarm

Duration.”

Manual: Continues alarm recording until the ALARM IN terminal is not grounded.

step7. Set the recording camera for each sensor connected.

• Select “View” and display the overview screen to check the settings of all the sensors.

• The multiple camera numbers can be set for one sensor input.

step8. Set the trigger of alarm recording for each sensor

connected.

External & MD-A: Starts alarm recording when the motion A is detected while the ALARM IN terminal is grounded. External & MD-B: Starts alarm recording when the motion B is detected while the ALARM IN terminal is grounded. External: Starts alarm recording only when the ALARM IN terminal is grounded. External / MD-A: Starts alarm recording when the ALARM IN terminal is grounded or the motion A is detected. External / MD-B: Starts alarm recording when the ALARM IN terminal is grounded or the motion B is detected. MD-A: Starts alarm recording only when the motion A is detected. MD-B: Starts alarm recording only when the motion B is detected.

• When setting the trigger to “MD-A,” “MD-B,” “External / MD-A,” “External / MD-B,” “External & MD-A,” or “External & MD-B,” the motion detection function becomes active immediately after exiting <Set Recording Pattern A (Normal/Timer) to D (Timer)>. To stop the input of alarm signals, set the “Alarm Input” setting in the <Recording> menu to “Off.”

step9. Set the PTZ camera preset.

• When the alarm input set on step 8 is input, the camera corresponding to the sensor number adjusts its angle to the preset point set on this step.

– – –: Does not adjust the camera angle.

• Select “View” and display the overview screen to check all the settings set on steps 8 and 9.

• When the trigger is set to “MD-A” or “MD-B,” PTZ camera preset cannot be activated. In this case, the PTZ camera preset does not function even when the setting is set to other than “– – –.”

Alarm recording

• When alarm recording or emergency recording is input during timer recording, the end time of the timer recording is extended until the alarm recording or the emergency recording is completed.

• When the alarm recording trigger is set to “External / MD-A” or “External / MD-B,” the priority is given to the latest alarm input.

• When the alarm recording trigger is set to “External / MD-A” or “External / MD-B,” and the alarm recording time is set to “Manual,” the alarm recording stops 2 seconds after the input of motion detection even if the ALARM IN terminal is being grounded. (When the alarm recording time for this recording according to the motion detection is set to “Manual,” the actual recording time is 2 seconds.)

• When power failure occurs during alarm recording or emergency recording, the alarm recording or emergency recording is cancelled after returning from the power failure.

• When alarms are input for multiple sensors at the same time, all the alarms may not be registered to the alarm list.

Frame recording and field recording

• In NTSC signal system, one picture is consist of two screens, odd and even. The unit records only the screen of odd in case of field recording. In case of frame recording, both of the screens (odd and even) are recorded.

• Frame recording is suitable for storing the data in the high picture quality, however, the data capacity is twice as large as that of the field recording of the same picture grade (1 frame = 2 fields). The picture may be looked like vibrating because one picture is consisted by two screens.

Alarm Input

This item is used to stop the alarm input manually. When setting “Alarm Input” to “Off,” the alarm input is stopped for 5 minutes. When setting the <Recording> menu while the alarm recording occurs continuously, stop the alarm input first to stop recording. “Alarm Input” function is available for ALARM IN terminal on the rear panel, motion detection, emergency recording, and communication port. To cancel the prohibition of alarm input manually, set it to “On” or exit the <Recording> menu. It is cancelled automatically after 5 minutes.

Emergency Recording Setup

This item is used to set the emergency recording settings. When the EMERGENCY terminal is grounded by the alarm sensor while both of the MAIN switch on the rear panel and the POWER button on the front panel are turned ON, emergency recording starts automatically overriding all the other settings even during timer recording or the unit is in stop mode.

• Emergency recording is not performed while the MAIN switch or POWER button is turned OFF or while timer recording stand-by mode.

• The setting of the <Recording> menu cannot be changed during normal recording or alarm recording. When changing setting during recording, stop recording for normal recording. For alarm recording, when the “Alarm Input” in the <Recording> menu is set to “Off,” the alarm input cannot be accepted for 5 minutes. When you stop recording during this time, the setting change of the <Recording> menu is available.

Setup Menu

• When the long pre-alarm area is set in the main device, the emergency recording data is stored in the LPA area and is automatically locked in 512 MB unit including the emergency recording data in order to prevent overwriting the data.

In LPA area, the data is always recorded at the rate set for alarm recording regardless of the input of the emergency signal. Therefore, when the emergency recording is started from the mid-part of the data block, the data recorded before the ground of the EMERGENCY terminal is stored in the locked area along with the emergency recording.

• When you set the long pre-alarm recording time without setting the long pre-alarm area, long pre-alarm recording is carried out using the alarm area for alarm recording, so long pre-alarm recording is not performed for a long time.

• When emergency recording is carried out using the long pre-alarm area, data is not stored chronologically and alarms are listed out of sequence. Be careful when searching for the desired picture.

• Notes for using the external device

The various external HDDs can be connected to this unit in order to expand the memory or to use as the copy device, however, when you record or playback at high rate, the picture may be missed during recording or playback depending on the external device connected due to the delay of the data transfer rate or respond of the external device.

Check the operation before the actual operation.

• Attaching the HDD and setting the ID number

See pages 20 to 23 for attaching the internal HDD.

For connecting the HDD to the SERIAL BUS port on this unit, use the USB 2.0 cable. The ID number is not necessary to be set because the unit automatically recognizes the HDD attached.

Before connecting the SCSI HDD, attach the recommended SCSI board to the OPTION SLOT on the rear panel, and then set the SCSI ID number. Make sure not to set the ID number which has been already used.

Make sure that the MAIN switch on the rear panel is turned off before connecting the internal and external HDDs.

• The order of recording/playback when internal and external HDDs are registered as the main device

The order of the internal HDD used for recording/playback is: internal A

When all the internal HDD is used up, the serial bus HDD is used for recording/playback in ascending sequence of the ID number if the HDD is connected to the SERIAL BUS port.

Serial bus ID01 ID16 (at the maximum)

When all the serial bus HDD is used up, the SCSI HDD is used for recording/playback in ascending sequence of the ID number if the HDD is connected to the SCSI terminal.

SCSI ID0 SCSI ID5

When all the SCSI HDD is used up, the internal HDD is used for recording/playback again.

In case of internal HDD and SCSI HDD, the recording/ playback order is not changed even when the HDD is removed or added. For example, when adding the internal B HDD during operating with internal A and C, internal B is registered between A and C.

In case of serial bus HDD, the HDD which is added last is registered last. However, the serial bus HDD newly connected can be registered to the middle number. When the HDD being used is set to “Free” to be removed, the HDD added is registered to the ID of the removed number.
