work by a qualified technician to restore the VCR to normal operation.
4. If the VCR was dropped or the cabinet damaged.
5. When the VCR shows a distinct change in performance–this indicates a need
for service.
Replacement Parts
Be sure the service technician uses only replacement parts Pelco recommends, or
which have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may cause fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repair to the VCR, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine whether it is in safe operating condition.
Water/Moisture/Condensation
Do not use this VCR near water. It is designed for indoor use only and must not be
installed where exposed to rain and moisture.
Do not place objects containing water, such as drinks, on top of the VCR.
If the VCR is exposed to a rapid increase in temperature (such as warming a cold
room or after moving it from a cold location to a warm one), condensation may form
on the tape transport mechanism inside the VCR. To prevent damage to the VCR or
tapes, plug the VCR into the AC outlet and turn the power on for about two hours.
Do not play back or record on the VCR during this time.
Condensation is likely to occur when:
1. The VCR is moved from a cold room to a warm room or from outdoors to
indoors.
2. A cold room is heated quickly.
3. The humidity is very high.
Avoid using the VCR where cold air (such as from an air conditioner) will blow
directly on it.

Cleaning
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners. Clean with a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent and water.
Wipe dry. NEVER USE PETROLEUM-BASED SOLUTIONS.
Attachments
Do not use attachments not recommended by Pelco as they may cause hazards.
Accessories
Do not place the VCR on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The VCR
may fall, seriously injuring a person or damaging the equipment. Use only with a
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by Pelco, or sold with the VCR.
Follow Pelco’s instructions when mounting equipment, and use a mounting accessory recommended by Pelco.
Use care when moving equipment on a cart. Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may overturn the VCR and cart combination.
Do Not Place Anything Heavy On The VCR
Heavy objects placed on the VCR will cause damage.
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet provide ventilation and ensure reliable operation
of the VCR and protect it from overheating. Do not block or cover these openings.
Never place the VCR near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place it in a
built-in installation such as a rack unless proper ventilation is provided or Pelco’s
instructions have been followed. There are many ventilation holes on the bottom of
the VCR–for maximum ventilation, place it on a hard level surface only.
Power Sources
Operate this VCR only from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are unsure of the type of power supply, consult your equipment dealer
or local power company.
WARNING:
The included power cord is used
for 120 VAC, 60 Hz. Never
connect to any outlet or
power supply having a different voltage or frequency.
Grounding or Polarization
This VCR is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug–a plug having a third
(grounding) pin. This plug only fits into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety
feature. If you cannot insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace
the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
Power Cord Protection
Do not damage the power cord; it may cause fire or shock hazard. Route the power
cord so it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it.
Pay particular attention to the cord at the wall plug or convenience receptacle and
the point where it connects to the VCR. When unplugging the power cord, grasp the
plug and remove it carefully.
Lightning/Power Surges
Unplug the VCR from the wall outlet for its added protection during a lightning storm

2.0 OVERVIEW
2.1 INTRODUCTION TO TIME-LAPSE RECORDERS
Time-lapse recording permits longer than ordinary recording times. The primary
reason for using time-lapse recording in a CCTV security system is that a single
VCR tape can be used for an extended period of time beyond the standard recording time. The following explains how time-lapse recording works.
The actual recording on VCRs is a series of still pictures or fields. Standard consumer VHS recorders store 60 fields (30 frames) per second. A T-120 cassette lasts
just two hours in this mode (SP mode). You can get slightly longer recording times
(six hours) using the extended recording mode (EP mode). You can record even
longer on a T-160 cassette in these modes: two hours and 40 minutes in SP mode
and eight hours in EP mode. (Refer to the table in Section 8.1.1 for actual recording
times in different modes.)
Time-lapse VCRs, however, use microprocessor-based techniques to record fewer
fields per second than a normal VHS machine and extend recording time. This negates the need to change the tape every two hours–and also substantially reduces
viewing time when the recording is played back, another important consideration.
In normal VCR operation, all video head scans (60 per second) are recorded. But in
time-lapse mode the tape runs more slowly and records pictures periodically. In 12hour mode, a normal time-lapse machine records 10 fields per second, and in 24hour mode, it stores just five fields per second (for up to 12 and 24 hours on a tape,
respectively). Longer times are possible by slowing the recording rate further.
At normal speed a picture is recorded every 1/60 of a second so there is little change
over five frames. In longer time-lapse modes, however, a field is recorded intermittently over a longer period of time so changes are apparent from field to field.
The time-lapse recording can be played back at normal two-hour tape speed, which
makes for rapid review–one of the time-lapse recorder’s most important advantages. Action on the tape, however, appears faster than normal.
As an advanced feature, time-lapse recorders (like the TLR2024) can automatically
switch from time-lapse to real-time recording when an alarm condition occurs. This
is important since the primary purpose of recording an event is identification, and
real-time recording provides more detail.
2.2 TLR2024 FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
The TLR2024 time-lapse VCR is a powerful surveillance tool designed for industrial
and security recording. In addition to ordinary two-hour and six-hour recording modes,
it has time-lapse modes that allow recording in 12- and 24-hour modes. The TLR2024
features frame-by-frame playback and high-speed playback of longer recordings.
Audio Recording–Audio recorded in 2H, 6H, L(inear)12H, or L24H modes is played
back only in its respective mode.
Resolution And Image Quality–This VCR has a high-quality circuit allowing more
than 330 lines in B/W (black and white) mode, and more than 240 lines in color
mode.
Automatic Head Cleaning–The VCR automatically removes foreign matter from
the heads when a cassette is inserted for continuous smooth operation.
Easy Setup Using A Monitor– The on-screen menus simplify setup programming.
You can select these menus even without inputting a video signal.
Easy Cueing With Alarm Recording–Index signals are automatically added at
the beginning of alarm recording for easy cueing. You can even use the monitor to
confirm the starting time of alarm recording.
Pelco Manual C650M (12/98) 9
External Time Clock Adjustment–You can reset the on-screen clock to the nearest hour by applying a signal to the RST (reset) IN terminal at the rear of the VCR.
Record Check–You can confirm correct recording by pressing the PLAY button
during recording.
Special Playback Features–These include still images, speed search, reverse
playback, frame-by-frame viewing in both directions, slow-motion, and high-speed
viewing.
JOG Dial/SHUTTLE Ring–You can use these controls to search for the desired
image. You can adjust the playback speed with the SHUTTLE ring and search for an
image frame-by-frame with the JOG dial.
Recording Options–This versatile system offers a variety of recording options,
including daily and weekly timer recording, repeat, and alarm recording.
NOTE:
The battery backup is for
memory only–the VCR does not
continue recording if the power
goes out. If you want to keep recording during an outage, make
sure the VCR system is on your
UPS (uninterruptible power supply)
system.
Protection Against Power Failures–Recording data (including date, time, and
timer setup) is stored in backup memory, so the system can resume recording after
a power failure. The monitor displays the time of the failure.
Digital <ELAPSED TIME> Display–The elapsed time of recording and playback is
stored in non-volatile memory. You can use the elapsed time display as a guide to
when to do periodic maintenance.
Tape Use Counter–This counter displays how many times you have recorded on a
tape. This helps you decide when you need to replace a tape.
Daylight Saving Time Setting–A daylight saving time setting is available. You can
set the clock forward an hour by programming the menu.

4.0 INSTALLATION
4.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CAUTIONS
1. Provide secure power to system components. Prevent overloading or shorting
by dedicating power circuits to the surveillance equipment. Restrict access to
the surveillance system circuit breakers, switches, and equipment power cords.
2. Surveillance system components must be operationally compatible. Time-lapse
recording speeds and dwell times of any accessory switching equipment must
be compatible with each other.
3. The TLR2024 time-lapse VCR provides multiple alarm recording speeds so it
is important that alarm triggering of components be operationally compatible.
Refer to Section 2.1 for information on time-lapse recording.
4. Complete all system hookups (camera, multiplexer, etc.) before installing the
VCR in a location where you cannot access its rear panel.
4.1.1 Securing the VCR Controls
Protect surveillance equipment to forestall tampering. We recommend putting the
recorder in a secure VCR cabinet. Pelco offers such units–the RM2000, which is a
rack kit for a single VCR, and the RM2004, which is a rack kit for four VCRs.
4.1.2 Monitor Tips
• Pelco recommends using a CCTV monitor.
• Some monitors may cause picture vibration or picture distortion at the top or
bottom of the image during still or normal playback. (Refer to Section 9.4.3 for
information.)
A television may be unable to provide a stable picture without vibration or distortion.
4.2 INSTALLATION
1. Remove the VCR and all cables from the box.
2. Place the VCR in a suitable location.
• If the location is unsecured, refer to Section 4.1.1 for information about

7.0 LOADING/UNLOADING/PROTECTING THE TAPE CASSETTE
You can load video cassette tapes into your VCR as long as it is plugged into a
power source. Loading a cassette automatically turns the VCR on even if its power
switch is turned off. Use only video cassette tapes marked VHS.
Use only standard grade VHS cassette tapes for reliable video recording. Do not
use Pro, Hi-Fi, and High Grade tapes–they may damage the video heads. Use only
T-120 or T-160 tapes.
7.1 LOADING
NOTE:
The VCR’s protection circuit will eject the tape if it is loaded
improperly. If the VCR ejects the
tape you are trying to load, remove
it and check that the contents label
is facing you and the clear plastic
window showing the tape faces up.
Try again.
NOTE:
The VCR will eject a video
cassette even if it is in STANDBY
mode. When you press the EJECT
button, the VCR will automatically
turn on, eject the tape, and turn off.
You cannot eject a tape while recording without first pressing the
STOP button, or while the VCR is
locked.
1. To position the cassette properly before inserting it in the cassette slot, hold
the cassette so the long narrow edge with the contents label faces you. The
hinged narrow edge should face the VCR. The clear plastic window showing
the tape should face up.
2. Line up the cassette squarely with the cassette slot and gently push the video
tape in until the VCR pulls it in.

7.3 PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL ERASURE
NOTE:
We recommend taking any
torn or broken cassette tape requiring repair only to professionals who
specialize in such procedures. The
adhesives on many common types
of tape could damage the head on
the VCR.
Video cassettes come with an erasure prevention tab. When it is removed it stops
the tape’s contents from being erased or recorded over. The VCR will automatically
eject a cassette if you try to record over it with the erasure prevention tab removed.

10.0 ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
10.1 COUNTER
10.1.1 Counter Memory
NOTE:
The counter display is
stored in the memory when the
power is turned off, so the same
numbers will be displayed when the
power is restored.
NOTE:
The backup is for memory
only–the VCR will not continue recording during a power outage unless connected to a UPS.
Press the COUNTER MEMORY/SKIP/INDEX button repeatedly until the “M” indicator appears on the fluorescent display. Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right and
the tape will rewind to the 00000 position of the counter and stop. (The rewind to

power loss list, and the number of tape uses will remain in memory if there is a
power failure or if the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet. Presets remain in memory for a maximum of 31 days provided the VCR has been connected
to AC power for at least 40 hours per week. Connection charges the battery backup.
Check the time if there has been a power failure or if the power cord has been
disconnected from AC power for a prolonged period.
10.3 POWER FAILURE TIME DISPLAY

11.0 TESTING
11.1 INITIAL SYSTEM TESTING
Before using the newly-installed surveillance system, do the following:
• Make test recordings at the time-lapse speeds you will be using. Test how the
system performs with alarms.
• Interrupt electrical power to check your installed power backup system (if applicable).
• On playback, verify picture quality and that you can see the time/date display
under normal and alarm conditions.
11.2 REGULAR SYSTEM TESTING
Every day check that the system is operating. Is the REC indicator lit? does the
COUNTER display indicate movement? Does the monitor show proper camera
sequencing and time/date information?
Check for recorded alarms. Multiple alarms could make the tape run out early. Make
sure there is enough tape to record at least five minutes of alarm activity at the
selected speed.
Regularly verify picture quality and operation under normal and alarm conditions.
Play a tape recorded recently under normal conditions, which also includes an
alarm condition that you triggered manually.
Regularly replace tapes (refer to Table D for a schedule). Check tapes for head
scarring. Replace damaged tapes. Always store tapes in their boxes; away from
magnetic fields, heat, direct sunlight, and dust.
