PREF ACE

The Digital Disk Recorder WJ-HD100 records information on a large capacity hard disk and is designed for use within a surveillance system. It records up to 960 hours of surveil­lance images (in long-time mode) on a field basis. There are 10 selectable picture quality levels and the field rate can be selected as well. Besides recording and playback,

FEATURES

• High quality still picture
Still pictures are recorded on the disk after compres­sion in the JPEG image file format.
• No need to replace a video tape
Thanks to the large disk capacity, there is no more need to replace the recording medium. The recording time can be extended to 16 times that of a single unit by operating multiple units in series.
• Easy access to the desired record
Time & Date search and alarm event search make retrieval easy.
the WJ-HD100 features versatile interfaces with alarm sen­sors, a CompactFlash card, RS-232C devices and PS equipment. Interactive menus are provided for system setup, recording setup, alarm setup and so forth.
• Various alarm modes
A different picture quality can be selected for alarm recording and for ordinary recording. A buzzer can be set up to beep when an alarm input is received. Besides the physically connected sensors, a built-in motion detector can be set up to generate alarm.
• Remote control
An RS-232C port enables the recorder to communicate with a personal computer or other RS-232C devices. A modular terminal is equipped for communication with
PS
Data devices in the RS-485 chain.
Data
• CompactFlash card slot
Pictures stored on the disk can be copied to a CompactFlash card in the card slot to browse through them on a personal computer.

PRECAUTIONS

• Refer all work related to the installation of this product to qualified service personnel or system installers.
• Avoid condensation on the surface of the hard disk. Wait until the dew evaporates if any of the following case takes place.
The recorder is moved to a place significantly differ­ent in temperature or humidity. The recorder is moved out of an air-conditioned room. The recorder is placed in an extremely humid place. The recorder is placed in a room where a heater has just been turned on.
• Consumable parts Contact your dealer for replacement of the following parts when the time comes:
Built-in hard disk needs replacement after around 30 000 hours of operation. Cooling fan also needs replacement after around 30 000 hours of operation. Backup battery has a lifetime of around five (5) years in an ordinary environment.
• We recommend that you note down your settings and retain them. Power or battery failure may erase settings you entered.
• Do not expose the appliance to water or moisture, nor try to operate it in wet areas.
• 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 to +45°C (41°F to 113°F) and a humidity below 90 %. The input power source for this appliance is 220 - 240 V AC 50 Hz.
• 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.
• 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.
