PREF ACE

The WJ-DR200 AV Disc Recorder can record up to 28,000 freeze pictures with a resolution of 720 x 480 (Fine Mode) on a large capacity optical disc (DVD­RAM). It can be set up to respond automatically to a sensor or alarm signal by recording the associated pictures.

FEATURES

ENGLISH
• Records clear freeze pictures
Applies 3D Scan Conversion to record blur-com­pensated, clear freeze pictures from moving images. Vertical resolution is nearly double that of conventional VCR pictures.
• Reliable recording of events
Obtain reliable records of important events by selecting the recording mode best suited for your purpose. There are three recording modes: Single Shot Recording: Records a single freeze pic-
ture.
Multi Shot Recording: Records a continuous series
of freeze pictures.
Time Lapse Recording: Records freeze pictures at
regular intervals.
• Easy picture search
Three search modes for quick and easy picture search. List Search: Searches a list by recording date and
time.
Thumbnail Search: Searches displayed thumbnail
images of recorded pictures.
Direct Search: Searches by a recording date and
time or record number directly specified by the user.
• Other handy recording functions
• Use the program timer function to preset the recording time and mode for each day of the week.
• Two video input channels for simultaneous recording of images from two cameras.
• Connect two Disc Recorders in series for unin­terrupted recording when the disc of one recorder is full.

PRECAUTIONS

• Refer all work related to the installation of this product to qualified service personnel or system installers.
• Do not block the ventilation opening or slots on the cover.
To prevent the appliance from overheating, place it at least 5 cm (2 inches) away from the wall.
• Do not drop metallic parts through slots.
This could permanently damage the appliance. Turn the power off immediately and contact qualified ser­vice personnel for service.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the appliance.
To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact qualified service personnel for maintenance.
• Handle the appliance with care.
Do not strike or shake, as this may damage the appliance.
• Fully charge up the backup battery.
Keep the appliance turned on for at least 48 hours to recharge the backup battery. This procedure is necessary when using the appliance for the first time or after it has been unplugged for a long time from the AC outlet. Insufficient charging of the bat­tery may cause erasure of settings if the AC power supply should fail. The battery, if fully charged, will back up the settings for 480 hours in an ordinary environment.
• Do not expose the appliance to water or mois­ture, nor try to operate it in wet areas.
Do take immediate action if the appliance becomes wet. Turn the power off and refer servicing to quali­fied service personnel. Moisture may damage the appliance and also cause electric shock.
• Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the appliance body.
Use a dry cloth to clean the appliance when it is dirty. When the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild deter­gent and wipe gently.
• Do not operate the appliance beyond its speci­fied temperature, humidity or power source rat­ings.
Do not use the appliance in an extreme environment where high temperature or high humidity exists. Use the appliance at temperatures within +5°C ­+40°C (41°F - 104°F) and a humidity below 90 %. The input power source for this appliance is 120 V AC 60 Hz.
• We recommend that you note down your settings and retain them. Power or battery failure may erase settings you entered.

O
Remove four rubber feet.
2. Place the rack mounting brackets on both sides of the Disc Recorder and tighten them with the four supplied screws (M4 X 10).
3. Install the Disc Recorder with the rack mounting brackets in the rack by using four screws (not included).
Cautions:
• Do not block the ventilation opening or slots in the cover to prevent the appliance from over­heating. Always keep the temperature in the rack within +40°C (104°F).
• Secure the rear of the appliance to the rack by using additional mounting brackets (procured locally) if the rack is subject to vibration.

(Alarm)(Sensor)
Cautions:
Noise may appear in the monitor image and the audio may be interrupted under the following circumstances:
• Faulty camera synchronization, causing large frequency deviations between individual cameras
• Picture experiencing abrupt changes in brightness
• Faulty timing in switching input and recording of video signals (for example, a sequential switcher is not used for the camera switching output of the disc recorder, or switching is out of synchronization due to an alarm condition)
Requirements for alarm and sensor input are as follows:
• Open collector output or no-voltage make contact
• The voltage between Ground and Alarm Input or Sensor Input when the circuit closes must be 0 to 0.2 V. The polarities can be changed by setting the SIGNAL TYPE parameter in the Alarm Recording menu.
Notes:
• Recording of freeze pictures from VCR playback is not provided as a function. Recording is possible, but the results may not be satisfactory depending on the type of VCR used.
• When the Disc Recorder is connected to several cameras, for example through a multiplexer, all camera inputs must be synchronized to obtain proper images. Refer all connection work to qualified service personnel or system installers.
• If you use the WJ-DR200 AV Disc Recorder with a Sequential Switcher that is connected to non-synchronized cameras (*1) and switches their video output sequentially (*2), recording with the following capture rates is not available:
720
480 mode 0.07 sec.
*
720
240 mode 0.03 sec.
*
*1: Including cameras with VD (Vertical Drive) synchronization. *2: Without using the camera switching pulse supplied by the WJ-DR200.
Connection with Video Multiplexer
Example: Connection with Video Multiplexer WJ-FS616 Note: Refer connection with a Video Multiplexer other than the WJ-FS616 to qualified service personnel or system installers.

SERIES REC OUT: Outputs a signal that enables
recording on two series-connected Disc Recorders.
Output Terminals
ALARM OUT: Sends an alarm signal in response to
an alarm input.
ALARM RECOVER OUT: Sends an alarm recover
signal in response to the alarm reset signal received when the ALARM RESET button is pressed, or when recording in Alarm Recording mode is terminated.
ALARM REC: Outputs an alarm recording signal
while the Disc Recorder is operated in Alarm Recording mode.
REC: Outputs an image recording signal while the
Disc Recorder is recording pictures. The signal is interlocked with lighting of the REC indicator on the Disc Recorder’s front panel.

The WJ-DR200 can be set up for automatic serial recording by connecting a second recorder to its Terminal Board.
Series Recording 1 (Alternate Alarm Recording)
Connect the terminals on the Terminal Boards of the MASTER and SLAVE recorder as shown below. Connect the required video and audio input to both recorders. This will enable recording alarms alternately on the MASTER and on the SLAVE recorder. When there is no more recording space on the disc of the MASTER recorder, alarm recording switches to the SLAVE recorder.
Series Recording 2
(Alternate Time Lapse Recording)
Connect the terminals on the Terminal Boards of the MASTER and SLAVE Recorder as shown below. When there is no more recording space on the disc of the MASTER recorder, time lapse recording switches to the SLAVE recorder. For uninterrupted recording, the disc of the MASTER recorder can be exchanged while recording is switched to the SLAVE recorder. (Up to 16 recorders including the MASTER recorder can be connected to record sequentially.)
(Auxiliary Alarm Recording)
An auxiliary record is made on the SLAVE recorder when a second alarm signal is received while the MASTER recorder is recording. This function is not available while the MASTER recorder is in an operating mode other than Alarm Recording (playback, search, etc.).
Connect the required video and audio input to both recorders. For sensor input, connect the SENSOR IN instead of the ALARM IN terminals.
