The DX3000 Series DVR has an unmarked lock button to restrict unauthorized use of the re­corder. The lock button will work only as long as no one discovers its function. Since you may need to make the manual accessible to others, the lock button’s location and operation are NOT documented in the manual – this is the only place it is shown.
The lock button is located on the front panel below the PRE ALARM REC light.
SIMPLE LOCK
When the LOCK button is pressed (with a ball­point pen, for example), the front panel controls are disabled except for the CAMERA, SPLIT/ SEQUENCE, and ZOOM buttons. The LOCK indicator light illuminates when the unit is in the Lock mode. Press the LOCK button again to exit the Lock mode.
The simple lock function does not work if a pass­word has been entered into the recorder (refer to Password Lock).
PASSWORD LOCK
Pressing the LOCK button on the front of the unit lets you record a password. Once the pass­word has been entered and the unit has been locked, the front panel controls are disabled
except for the CAMERA, SPLIT/SEQUENCE, and ZOOM buttons.
Entering Initial Password
1. Press the LOCK button for five seconds. The Password Setting menu appears.

3. Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right to enter the password.
4. Re-enter the password, and then turn the SHUTTLE ring to the right. The password is now set, and the normal operating screen appears.
If the wrong password is entered, “PASS­WORD ERROR” appears on the screen, and the password is cleared. Turn the SHUTTLE ring to the left to exit the menu. Press the LOCK button to turn off the indicator light. Return to step 1.
Changing Password
1. Turn the Password Lock feature OFF (refer to Turning Password Lock On and Off).
2. Press the LOCK button for five seconds. The Password Lock menu appears.

OVERVIEW

DESCRIPTION

The DX3000 Series Digital Video Recorder (DVR) is a high-quality digital recorder that combines the functions of a recorder and multiplexer into one unit.
With the number of cameras in systems increasing, the combination of a video recorder with a multiplexer has become standard. In pursuit of the high-quality image playback char­acteristic of digital recording and as a way to make the recording operation more ideal, the DX3000 Series DVR includes versatile multiplexer functions that allow the images from the camera inputs to be shown on the monitor in multiple formats: 1-, 4-, or 9-camera dis­plays on the DX3009 models or 1-, 4-, 9-, or 16-camera displays on the DX3016 models.
The DX3000 Series DVR uses JPEG compression to produce high-resolution playback with more than 450 horizontal lines. There are five user-selectable image quality settings. The DVR has a built-in, large-volume hard disk for both high reliability and high-speed operation. Users can select from six (DX3009 models) or eight (DX3016 models) record­ing intervals ranging from 1-30 frames per second. The maximum number of frames that can be recorded consecutively is as follows:
MODEL MAXIMUM FRAMES
DX3009-030 2,456,000 DX3009-060 4,913,000 DX3016-060 4,800,000 DX3016-120 9,601,000
Recording can be done continuously or at specified time periods. The user also can cat­egorize cameras into three recording groups, allowing different recording patterns, for ex­ample, during weekdays and weekends.
Zoom buttons permit the user to zoom in on a selected area of the image. There are two methods of detecting alarms. First, for each camera there is an alarm input
that triggers alarm recording when a ground signal is received from the alarm device. A pre-alarm recording function can be set to record images before the alarm sensor de­tects disturbances. Second, each camera can be programmed to detect motion, including the capability to select the motion detection area and the sensitivity of motion detection.
Versatile high-speed search operations include time and date searching, index searching, skip searching, and alarm list searching.
To handle applications requiring long-term storage of recorded images, the DX3000 Series DVR is capable of using supplementary devices to create backups and copies without inter­rupting hard disk recording. Used in conjunction with a wide selection of media, DX3000 Series DVR can handle many different kinds of non-stop recording. Additional hard disk drives can be added to supplement the built-in hard disk when extended recording time is needed, as follows:
MODEL MAXIMUM NUMBER OF
DX3009-030 3 (34 GB PER UNIT) DX3009-060 2 (34 GB PER UNIT) DX3016-060 2 (103 GB PER UNIT) DX3016-120 2 (103 GB PER UNIT)
Other features include audio recording, recognition of recorded images that have been al­tered, and an RS-232C interface for remote control from a PC or other control terminals.

SERIES RECORDING
By connecting multiple units in series as shown in Figure 11, when the one unit’s hard disk is full, the next unit automatically begins recording.
In this example, when the first unit’s hard disk is full, the second unit begins recording; when the second unit’s hard disk is full, the first unit begins overwriting its hard disk. If you do not want the first unit to overwrite its hard disk, do not connect MODE OUT from the second unit to REC of the first unit. The series recording function can also be activated by connecting the CALL OUT terminal in place of the MODE OUT terminal; the disk storage capacity setting is made in the Call Out menu. When the CALL OUT terminal is used, if the first unit reaches the preset capacity, experiences a malfunction, or otherwise cannot con­tinue recording, the second unit begins recording.

5. Optional. Connect peripheral recording devices.
By connecting peripheral recording devices to the recorder through the SCSI interface (SCSI-II half-pitch 50-pin), storage space can be increased and archiving and copying functions can be performed.
To increase storage space, up to two (DX3009-060, DX3016-060, and DX3016-120) or three (DX3009-030) peripheral hard disk drives (maximum of 34 GB per unit for DX3009 models or 103 GB per unit for DX3016 models) can be added to supplement the built-in hard disk.
For archiving or copying functions, a tape or disk device can be connected. The following tape devices can be connected to the recorder:
Pelco DX3000-D25 (drive) Pelco DX3000-T25 (blank tape)
The following disk devices can be connected to the recorder:
MO (640 MB) Fujitsu SMB-640WF MO (1.3 GB) Fujitsu SMB-1300W DVD-RAM Panasonic LF-D200JD HDD SCSI-IF Type Zip (250 MB) IOMEGA Z250S
Connections between the recorder and peripheral devices are made with SCSI cables (not supplied). As SCSI cables differ with each device, check for the appropriate pin arrangement before use. Cables must not exceed 3 feet (1 m).
On the rear panel of the recorder is a SCSI termination switch. Set the switch ON when nothing is connected the SCSI connector. Set to OFF when connecting periph­eral devices.
Correct termination is necessary to maintain proper electrical connections to the pe­ripheral devices. Make sure that the last peripheral device is terminated. (Depending on the device, the terminator may be built into the device. In this case, set the built-in terminator correctly.) Use an active terminator for SCSI.
Set the SCSI ID number of the peripheral recording device. Refer to the operation manual of each peripheral recording device for setting the SCSI ID Number. Use ID1-3 for hard drives, ID4 for an archive device, and ID5 for a copy device. On DX3016 mod­els, also use ID4 when a hard disk drive is connected for repeated backup recording (considered an archiving function).

socket.
7. Turn on power to peripheral recording devices first, and then turn on the power to the
recorder. Power to the cameras and monitor can be turned on before or after turning on the recorder.
If there are no peripheral devices connected to the SCSI terminal, the installation is complete. Proceed to the
Programming
section.
If there are peripheral devices connected to the SCSI terminal, the recorder automati­cally detects peripheral recording devices connected to the SCSI terminal.

NOTE:
The DX3000 uses the native format of the added drive(s); therefore, any
added drive(s) do not have to be reformatted.
Up to two (DX3009-060) or three (DX3009-030) peripheral hard disk drives (maximum of 34 GB per unit) can be added to supplement the built-in hard disk when extended recording time is needed.
1. If a hard drive(s) has been added, a screen similar to the first one on the left appears
after turning on the power. This screen shows a peripheral device connected to ID1. If the second screen to the left appears, it is possible that there is either a poor con-
nection, overlapping SCSI ID numbers, or an error in SCSI ID number settings. In this case, turn the SHUTTLE ring twice in the clockwise direction. Main power to the re­corder is turned off. Check the connection and SCSI ID settings.
All data will be lost on the current drive(s) after you install an
