Features
The Network Disk Recorders WJ-ND200 are designed for use within a surveillance system, and perform recordings
and playbacks pictures from network cameras in the system.
The network disk recorder is a recording device using a hard disk drive to record camera pictures instead of using
video tapes so that pictures recorded by repeated overwriting will not experience deterioration of the recorded picture quality.
Up to 16 cameras can be connected via a network and it is possible to record their camera pictures. It is possible to
perform the settings or operate the WJ-ND200 (this unit) using a web browser installed on a PC connected to a network. Up to 4 PCs (web browsers) can access this unit concurrently and it is possible to perform the settings and
operate this unit.
Recording Functions
Multi-recording
It is possible to perform multiple recordings using a single network 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 a week. It is also possible to perform recording at a different recording rate according to time range.
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 an alarm signal is supplied, the recording mode (recording rate) can be changed to
high rate to record pictures.
2.5 inch removable hard disk
Two removable hard disks are provided, and they can be removed and inserted easily and quickly on the front of the
unit.
When using two hard disks, it is possible to replace the hard disks without interrupting recording.
Downloading/Transmitting Images
It is possible to download (save) the currently displayed image in the web browser window onto the hard disk of a
PC. By establishing an FTP server, it is possible to transmit images to the designated FTP server periodically. When
an event occurs, it is possible to transmit images from the camera installed in the place where the alarm occurred.
Event Notification Function
When an event occurs, it is possible to send e-mails to designated addresses to notify of the event occurrence. It is
also possible to send an e-mail with an image recorded when the event occurred.

Terms Used in these Operating Instructions
HDD
Refers to a hard disk drive (mass storage medium). The unit records camera pictures on a hard disk rather than on
video tape.
Recording rate (ips, I-Flame)
Refers to the unit that determines the smoothness with which the recorded images are played back. "ips" is used to
express the number of frames recorded per second. The higher the number, the smoother the movement, but the
available recording time becomes shorter. "I-Frame" is used to express the refresh interval of MPEG-4 image display
set on the camera.
Resolution
Resolution refers to the degree of fineness and quality of the camera pictures recorded by this unit. This unit displays the resolution in number of dots. For example, if the number of horizontal dots is 640 and the number of vertical dots is 480, the display reads 640 x 480.
M-JPEG
A video codec that compresses video fields from the camera into independent JPEG images sequentially by query
from the unit. Network load will be reduced comparing with the method that obtains JPEG images independently
from the camera. However, the transmission rate will fluctuate depending on the state of the camera. Some cameras
phrase this video codec as just "JPEG".

communication with the camera failed in the period set for the schedule recording of this unit. Images saved by the
SD memory recording are described as "SD memory data" on these operating instructions. The recording time of SD
memory data will be displayed based on the clock of the camera.
Event
An event is a phenomenon which triggers a specific operation (event operation) in the unit. Events are divided into
terminal alarm, command alarm, and site alarm.
Sequence
Sequence refers to automatically changing the displayed camera picture in a preset sequence. Sequence display is
possible while the unit displays live pictures.
Electronic zoom
Function for enlarging live and playback pictures. While the camera uses the camera zoom function to enlarge pictures, the electronic zoom function enlarges the picture electronically in the unit and displays it.
Camera control

When "Use" is not selected or when no SD memory
card is mounted on the camera, error messages
may be displayed several times a day, and recording
may be interrupted for around 20 seconds each time
the error message is displayed.
This may also occur when the firmware of the camera is older. In this case, upgrade the firmware of the
camera.
When the firmware version of the camera in use is
not the version listed below, upgrade the firmware.
Applicable cameras/firmware versions
• WV-NP244 series Ver1.20 or later

About the SD memory recording
The SD memory recording is the function of some
Panasonic’s cameras that saves images on the SD
memory card on the camera when communication with
the camera failed in the period set for the schedule
recording of this unit.
Applicable cameras/firmware versions
• WV-NP244 series: Ver.1.20 or later
• WV-NP1000 series: Ver.1.20 or later
• WV-NS202: Ver.1.00 or later
For example, when "0.1 ips" is selected, the camera will
start the SD memory recording when no request for
image obtainment from the unit is made for 10 seconds
or more (equivalent to 0.1 ips*) in the time range of the
set schedule.
* The wait time to start the SD memory recording of the
camera differs depending on the set recording rate.
There are two ways to obtain recorded images from the
SD memory card; automatic obtainment by setting
schedules and manual obtainment by clicking the SD
memory data obtain button.
When time length between the set schedules is longer
than 30 minutes, images recorded by the SD memory
recording will be obtained automatically. All users will
forcibly be logged out when automatic obtainment
starts. To obtain SD memory data automatically, set
time length between the schedules longer than 30 minutes.
Refer to the operating instructions (PDF) for how to
obtain images manually.
Important:
• The emergency recording will be performed at the
recording rate set for "SD MEMORY REC" on the
"Emergency REC" page (☞ page 34) when communication with the camera failed during the emergency recording.
• The SD memory recording will not be performed if
communication with the camera is not established
even when it reached the start time of the schedule
or when the emergency recording is triggered.
• Do not set the recording rate of the SD memory
recording for the same camera with multiple
recorders.
• The recording time of SD memory data will be
recorded based on the clock of the camera. To prevent a time contradiction, match the clocks of the
camera and the WJ-ND200 using the NTP function,
and set to OFF for the summer time (daylight savings) function of the camera.
Notes:
• All images recorded on the SD memory card may
not always be obtained at a time depending on the
time length between the schedules or the total size
of the images. Images failed to obtain can be
obtained automatically next time.
• SD memory data cannot be obtained automatically
when the following is being performed:
• Playback
• HTTP download
• Emergency recording
• External recording
• SD memory data obtainment will be interrupted
when the following operation is performed:
• Login
• Emergency recording
• External recording
• Shifting to/from summertime (daylight savings)

[Measurement] button
It is possible to check if the set recording rate and transmission rate are available for the network in use by
clicking the [Measurement] button. It will take around 90
seconds to check. In the process of the measurement,
recording will stop. When the set rate is displayed red,
recording/transmission may be failed with the set rate.
Check if the result value (total value of the maximum
network speed of each camera) is below the maximum
network speed of the unit (30 Mbps as indication).
When the result value is beyond the maximum network
speed of the unit
(Example: 30 Mbps < 50 Mbps (result value))
When the result value is beyond the maximum network
speed of the unit (30 Mbps as indication), refer each
rate for "LIVE VIDEO", "MANUAL REC", "SCHEDULE
REC" and "EVENT REC". Then, lower the higher rate
among them or lower image quality to diminish the network traffic from the camera. Click the [Measurement]
button to check if the result value is below the maximum
network speed. Repeat this procedure until the result
value becomes less than 30 Mbps (as indication).
Important:
• When the result value is beyond the maximum network speed of the unit, the following may occur due
to the heavy network traffic:
• Some images to be recorded may not be done.
• Some live images to be displayed may not be
done.
• Some alarms to be issued may not be done.
• Operational response may become slow.
• Even when the result value is below the network
speed (30 Mbps as indication), the above problems
may occur depending on number of the connected
cameras and PCs. The following table shows the
reference values.
• Network traffic changes every moment. In any circumstances, the result value should be less than the
maximum network speed of the unit (30 Mbps).

Notes:
• Click the [Measurement] button after setting the recording rate/transmission rate by clicking the [SET] button.
• Do not change the settings in the process of the measurement.
• In the process of the measurement, recording, playback and live image display will stop. Other users currently
accessing the unit will forcibly be logged out.
• They need to log in the unit after the measurement. The result value is the reference value.
• Depending on the network traffic, different result value may be displayed even when the [Measurement] button is
clicked without changing the settings. Depending on the network traffic or other causes, the following may occur.
• Live images are not transmitted as configured
• Images are not recorded as configured
• Response of the web browser becomes slow
• The web browser is disconnected
• Recording is not carried out
We make no guarantee for any damages incurred by recording malfunction or error occurrence regardless of
what the cause may be.
