• Built-in backup battery
Before the first use, charge the built-in backup battery
(lithium battery) by turning on the power for 48 hours or
more.
If it is not charged enough, in a case where the power
goes down, the internal clock may keep bad time or the
operative condition may be different to that before the
electric power failure.
The built-in battery life is approximately 5 years as an
indication of replacement. (This is just an indication of
replacement. We are not providing any guarantee of the
built-in battery lifetime. Replacement cost of the built-in
battery is not covered by the warranty even if it needs
to be done within the warranty period.) Ask the shop
where you purchased the unit when replacement of the
battery is required.
• Cooling Fan
Turn the power off when cleaning the unit. Otherwise it

their motors are still running. Do not move them just
after turning their power on or off (for around 30 seconds).
When hard disk drive trouble occurs, replace it immediately. Consult your dealer for servicing.
When replacing the hard disk drives, take notice of the
following.
Do not detach the hard disk drives or the cables connecting the unit and the front cover while the
HDD1/HDD2 indicators are lit or for around 30 seconds
after the indicators go off.
Protect the hard disk drives from static electricity.
Do not stack them, or keep them upright.
Do not use an electric screwdriver to fix them.
(Tightening torque: Approx. 0.49 N · m (5 kgf · cm))
Avoid rapid changes of the temperature/humidity to
prevent condensation. (Acceptable change: within
15 °C/h (59 °F/h))
• Place the unit horizontally an a level surface. Do not
place the unit in an upright position. When stacking
multiple units, clear a space of more than 5 cm from
both sides, the top, the bottom and the rear of the units.
• Avoid placing receptacles that contain liquids such as
water near the unit.
If liquid spills onto the unit, it may cause fire or an electric shock.
• Do not expose the unit to water or moisture, or try to
operate it in wet areas.
• Prevent condensation from forming on the surface of

PREFACE
The Digital Disk Recorders WJ-HD316A/309A are designed
for use within a surveillance system and are a combination
of a hard disk recorder and a video multiplexer (16-input for
the WJ-HD316A, 9-input for the WJ-HD309A).
The digital hard disk recorder is a recording device using a
hard disk drive to record camera pictures instead of using
videotapes so that pictures recorded by repeated overwriting will not experience deterioration of the recorded picture
quality. Up to 16 cameras can be connected to the WJ-
FEATURES
Various Recording Functions
• Multi-Recording
It is possible to perform multiple recordings using a single digital disk recorder even if the operating environments are different, for example, recording pictures of
cameras in different places at different times.
• Schedule recording
It is possible to perform recording automatically at a
scheduled time on a designated day of the week.
Schedules can be set on each camera.
HD316A directly (up to 9 cameras to the WJ-HD309A) and
it is possible to record their camera pictures. It is also possible to display four or more camera pictures on a single
monitor, to switch camera pictures, and to operate cameras
using this unit.
Remote Operation via Network
It is possible to operate this unit using a PC connected to a
LAN (Local Area Network) or the Internet with the featured
network function.
Security Function and Reliability
• Authentication function (registration of ID and password) allows users access to a predetermined selection
of the available functions. Up to 32 users can be registered.
• Emergency Recording
In the case of an emergency, emergency recordings
will be given a higher priority than other recording
modes by operating an external switch.
• External Timer Recording
It is possible to perform recording automatically using
an external timer.
• Event Recording
At an event occurrence, such as when an alarm signal
is supplied, the recording mode (quality and recording
rate) can be changed to high quality to record pictures.
• Motion Detection Function (VMD)
It is possible to start recording automatically when
motion is detected in a shooting area.
Frame Switcher Function
• It is possible to display pictures of four or more cameras on a single monitor (multi-screen) splitting the
monitor screen into 4, 7, 9, 10, 13, or 16 sections using
the WJ-HD316A, and into 4, 7, or 9 sections using the
WJ-HD309A.
While monitoring a multi-screen, each camera picture
will be displayed as a moving image.
• If alteration of a recorded image data is made for any
reason, the alteration alert function will announce it.
• If a hard disk crashes, the backup function

Transmission with Coaxial Cable, PS·Data and
RS485 Compatible
• It is possible to control a Panasonic combination camera such as the WV-CS850 using only a coaxial cable
but not other devices. Using a coaxial cable also compensates for transmission loss.
• It is easy to establish the surveillance system by connecting a PS·Data compatible system controller and
peripherals.

Notes:
• The same images displayed on monitor 2 will be displayed on the VGA monitor.
• The camera title will be displayed with 16 characters (2
lines: 8 characters per line).
• When monitor 2 is selected, it is possible to switch the
way of displaying the camera title in the following order
by pressing the camera selection button 8 for the WJHD316A (the camera selection button 6 for the WJHD309A) while the shift function is on (by pressing the
SHIFT button):
Display the camera title → Display the camera title in
list form → Not display the camera title
• When playing images recorded after selecting "ON" for
"Embedded REC (Time & Date)", the embedded abbreviation of the recording mode (event recording/emergency recording) will be displayed.
The abbreviations are as follows:
• In case that "ON" is selected for "Embedded REC (Title)"
and also "R-UPPER" or "R-LOWER" is selected for the
camera title position, when playing images recorded
with the resolution setting "SIF", a part of the embedded
camera title may not be displayed.
Important:
• Since the VGA output from this unit is the same as for
televisions (720 H x 480 V pixels/vertical frequency of
59.94 Hz), it may be possible that both the left and right
edges can not fit onto the screen depending on the
VGA monitor.
• It is impossible to use the MONITOR (VGA) connector
when connecting the unit in the cascade connection.
• It may take time to display live images on the VGA monitor if the VGA monitor is turned on/off when the unit is
running.
2. Task Bar
Displays the current status.
The task bar consists of the main bar (w - A), the left
bar (w - B), and the right bar (w - C).
There are 3 different ways to display the task bar as follows.
Mode 1
Displays only the main bar and the status is displayed
on it.
Mode 2
Displays the status on the main bar, the left bar and the
right bar.
Mode 3
