Menu Setting Procedures

3. PROGRAM REC SET

When more than one camera is connected to the digital video recorder, the camera rate (unique rec rate for each camera) can be set separately for each camera. In addition, you can make up to four programs that include settings such as the method of combining the images from each recording camera and individual camera rates. You can specify the appropriate program when making [TIMER SET] and [RECORDING MODE SET] menu settings.

Use the menu (1) to specify a program number.

P-1 to P-4

Use the menu (2) to specify the cameras that are to be used for recording from the numbers of the connected cameras that are being displayed on the screen (DSR-3009 model: 1-9; DSR-3016 model: 1-16), and set the camera rate for each camera selected.

• If a camera is not to be recorded: Select “OFF”.

• If a camera is to be recorded: Set the camera rate.

Default setting

Menu Setting Procedures

6. NORMAL REC MODE SET

This specifies the recording conditions for normal recording and timer recording.

PICTURE QUALITY

This sets picture quality for normal recording.

Select a picture quality mode from the menu.

• BASIC (basic quality)

• NORMAL (normal quality)

• ENHANCED (enhanced)

• FINE (high quality)

• SUPER FINE (very high quality)

AUDIO RECORDING

Sound can also be recorded in the normal recording area at the same time as images are recorded. However, when sound is recorded, the recording capacity of the normal recording area will be reduced because the audio data is also recorded in the normal recording area.

Select [ON/OFF] from the menu.

• ON: Sound is recorded.

• OFF: Sound is not recorded.

Audio recording can be set when the REC RATE setting is between 8.333 and 50 FPS.

(Default setting: ENHANCED)

(Default setting: OFF)

English

Menu Setting Procedures

REC RATE

(Default setting: A 12.5 FPS)

This sets the recording rate for normal recording.

Select the recording cycle for normal recording from the menu.

A 50, A 25, A 16.67, A 12.5, A 8.333, 6.25, 5, 4.167, 3.571,

3.125, 2.778, 2.5, 2.273, 1.923, 1.667, 1.471, 1.316, 1.190,

1.087, 1, 0.5, 0.333, 0.25, 0.2, 0.1, 0.05, 0.033 (Units: FPS)

The image resolution is determined by image quality × REC RATE. The higher the image quality and the faster the REC RATE setting, the higher is the image resolution. However, higher image resolutions also consume disk space more quickly, and so the total recording time available will be reduced. You should adjust the value as required while considering these factors.

If pre-alarm recording is set to “ON”, the REC RATE will be limited to A 12.5 FPS.

The REC RATE during timer recording should be set separately using the [TIMER SET] menu. (See p. 14)

REC PROGRAM GROUP

Recording Images

This digital video recorder can record images being monitored and alarm on the internal hard disk by the methods specified below.

In order to record images, the necessary menu settings should be made beforehand in accordance with the installation environment. (See p. 7)

■■■■ Normal recording

This is a manual operation for recording live images that are currently being viewed into the normal recording area.

Click the O button on the operating panel to start normal recording.

Click the P button on the operating panel to stop normal recording.

If more than one camera is connected to the digital video recorder for monitoring, the images for all cameras that have been set in the PROGRAM GROUP specified by the NORMAL REC MODE SET setting will be recorded, regardless of the number of live image display screens. (See p. 13)

■■■■ Timer recording

This is for automatically recording an image that is being viewed into the normal recording area at a specified time.

Timer recording is not possible during normal recording.

The conditions for timer recording (day of the week, time, recording speed, etc.) are set beforehand using the TIMER SET menu screen. (See p. 14)

Timer recording is started by clicking the Q button on the operating panel and recording will start and stop automatically in accordance with the specified times. The timer recording operation is indicated by a “TIMER STANDBY” or “TIMER RECORDING” message appearing on the screen.

If “OLY AL-RC ON TMR” has been selected as the ALARM RECORDING setting (see p. 16), timer recording standby operation using the button is not possible.

To cancel timer recording, click the Q button on the operating panel again when in timer recording standby mode.

■■■■ Alarm recording

Alarm images are recorded automatically in the alarm recording area when the alarm input terminals or motion sensor have detected an alarm.

When alarm recording is in operation, normal recording, timer recording and pre-alarm recording are automatically suspended, and they are resumed when the alarm recording is finished.

The conditions for alarm recording are set beforehand using ALARM REC MODE SET menu screen. (See p.

15)

Alarm recording begins automatically when an alarm is detected, regardless of the operating or working conditions of the digital video recorder.

Alarm recording stops automatically after the amount of time specified by the DURATION setting has elapsed.

■■■■ Pre-alarm recording

When pre-alarm recording has been set beforehand, the same images will be recorded normally in the normal recording area and also in the alarm recording area. The normal recording images will be recorded in this way for the length of time specified by the DURATION setting, so that the images recorded before the alarm occurred can also be seen when the alarm recording is played back.

Set the pre-alarm recording conditions using the [PRE-ALARM RECORDING] menu in the ALARM REC MODE SET menu screen. (See p. 17)

The most recent images will be recorded automatically for the specified duration, and they will be updated by being overwritten.

When an alarm recording is being carried out, pre-alarm recording is automatically suspended, and it is resumed when the alarm recording is finished.

English

Viewing Images

Live images and recorded images can both be viewed while monitoring is in progress at any time when required.

• When playing back images for the second and subsequent time, playback will start from the point where the previous playback session ended.

You can use the search function to search for the images that you would like to play back from all images that have been recorded in all of the different areas of the hard disk. When you search for images to be played back in search mode and then select an image, the display will changes automatically to the playback mode screen and the selected images will be played back. Refer to “Search” in the next section for further details.

The screen display may become momentarily unstable or playback may appear to pause when the following operations are carried out, but this is normal and is not the sign of a malfunction.

• When playback is carried out continuously between the normal recording area and the alarm recording area, the images may flicker momentarily when switching between the two areas.

• If you use normal playback or fast-forward and rewind playback during alarm recording or during continuous playback between the normal recording area and alarm recording area, the images may appear to freeze at times.

Saving Recorded Images

Recorded images can be copied into the archive area of the hard disk or downloaded to a personal computer.

This function is used only for saving important images that have been recorded in the normal recording area and alarm recording area.

• Images that are copied will be saved as individual images. Moving pictures are handled by specifying the number of images that need to be copied after the start picture. The maximum number of images that can be archived in one copy operation is 10,000 when copying to the archive area and 1,000 when downloading to a computer.

• In order to protect the recording operation of the digital video recorder, the status of the network is checked, and if the network is busy, the digital video recorder may be disconnected from the network depending on the operating environment. If a command is given to transfer large volumes of data all at once (particularly when saving 1100 or more images at a time), the digital video recorder may be disconnected from the network, so you may need to restrict the number of images being copied at one time depending on the environment.

• If the archive area becomes filled with images, you can temporarily copy the images to another medium such as a CompactFlash card, and then press the [AREA FULL RESET] button on the RECORDING AREA SET main menu to reset the digital video recorder. (See p. 10)
