Location
For safe operation and satisfactory performance of your system controller, keep the following in mind when selecting a place for its installation:
Shield it from direct sunlight and keep it away from sources of
intense heat. Avoid dusty or humid places.
Avoid places with insufficient ventilation for proper heat
dissipation. Do not block the ventilation holes at the top and bottom of the system controller. Do not place the unit on a carpet because this will block the ventilation holes.
Install the system controller in a horizontal position only.
Avoid locations subject to strong vibrations.
Avoid moving the system controller between cold and hot
locations. Do not place the system controller directly on top of a monitor
TV, as this may cause playback or recording problems.
Avoiding Electrical Shock and Fire
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
Do not pull on the power cord when disconnecting it from an
AC wall outlet. Grasp it by the plug. If any liquid is spilled on the system controller, unplug the
power cord immediately and have the unit inspected at a factory-authorized service centre.
Do not place anything directly on top of this system controller.

This product is to be connected to the RS-485 control terminal of Sanyo multiplexers, timelapse VCRs, cameras and digital video recorders. It can operate a maximum of 128 of each device, to a maximum of 256 devices in total. Up to a maximum of five VSP-8000s can be connected together.
Individual operation by addresses You can operate individual devices by specifying their
address and using the command buttons or call-up commands of the VSP-8000.
When you set the address for a device, you can also give it a
title. The status of each device can be displayed on the menu
screen of the VSP-8000. Group operation
The VSP-8000 allows the setting of up to 15 groups. This
enables the simultaneous operation of all the devices registered together in one group.
In addition to simultaneous operation of all devices in a
group, simultaneous operation of a category of devices is possible by specifying either multiplexers, timelapse VCRs, cameras or digital video recorders.
By logging the same peripheral device in multiple groups, the
same operation can be performed at the same time. If an alarm is tripped or the operating status of a device
changes, the alarm or status lamp on the VSP-8000 will start flashing. The date, time, and status at the time of the event are logged individually up to maximum of 100 events.
Security features A secret number can be set as a security lock for each device.
Set one VSP-8000 as the master controller for setting the
simple lock for each device on the system. Also, if you use the timer setting on the VSP-8000, you can have the timer lock activate at set time periods.
By issuing commands with the VSP-8000, you can activate
the security locks for each device. Therefore, you can lock the operations of any device on the system.
Upload/Download menu settings* You can upload menu data from the specified device to the
VSP-8000, and download it collectively to other devices. Transfer date/time information*
You can download to a device that will use the data for the date/time specified with the VSP-8000 and specify a date/time collectively.
Alarm buzzer The controller will sound a built-in buzzer when certain
conditions arise, such as a triggered alarm for a connected device or a change of operational status in a connected device.
RS232C - RS485 conversion Connection of a computer to this unit’s RS232C port will
enable the computer to control other connected devices through this controller.
Protocol information necessary for computer communications with this unit is available separately from Sanyo, but the customer is responsible to develop his own communications software.

Battery compartment
Backup function
The VSP-8000 is equipped with a lithium battery for backing up the internal clock of the unit. The battery is charged when power is supplied to the unit. After 30 hours of charging, the battery is capable of maintaining the clock operation for up to 30 days.
Note: If power is supplied to the unit for only a short period of
time, the battery may run out of power and cause the clock to be incorrect.
Battery life
With the AC adapter unplugged from the wall socket, wait approximately one hour and then turn on the power and check the initial screen. If the screen shown below appears, then the battery has expired. At this point, replace it with a new battery.

SETTING THE SECURITY LOCKS
To prevent unwarranted use of the VSP-8000 while it is operating, the unit or the entire system can be set to a security lock by entering a secret code. There are two types of security locks: a simple lock that does not depend on the time, and a timer lock that only activates during a set time period. Also, by locking the master controller (address 0), the entire system becomes locked.
Simple locks
Press the MENU button.
1
Then press the + (or – ) button until “ SECURITY LOCK” is displayed and press the ENTER button.
The secret code entry screen appears.
Enter the secret code (e.g., 1234) with the numeric keypad.
2
Note: The secret code will be required to deactivate the lock, so be sure to
write it down so it is not forgotten.
For mistakes: Press the CLEAR button and reenter the secret code. If the secret code is lost or forgotten, contact your nearest Sanyo dealer or
representative.
Press the ENTER button.
3
NO USE” (to use the simple lock function) appears flashing.
Press the ENTER button again.
4
The simple lock is set and the initial screen appears.
Note: If a button on the operation panel is pressed when the simple lock has
been applied, the system will wait for a secret code to be entered and button operations will be ineffective until the secret code is entered. Also, the lock will be released when the secret code is entered. To return to the initial screen without releasing the lock, please press the CLEAR button or the MENU button.

Using the security lock for the entire system
If the security lock is activated at the master controller (address 0), then the whole system becomes locked. If the whole system is locked, then “LOCKED BY MASTER” will be displayed in the menu screen of all the controllers except the controller with address 0.
Note:
Do not set two or more controllers to address 0. If there is more than one controller with address 0, the controller that was first
set will become the master controller. If the entire system is locked by a controller set to address 0, then all connected devices will be locked because operation from
the controller will not be possible. Please use separate locking if only individually devices need to be locked.
