Overview
The NSR series is a hard disk recording server for network cameras. The NSR allows you to monitor and record network
camera images (JPEG or MPEG-4). It also allows you to play back the recorded images and search through it, making the
NSR a truly versatile monitoring system.

With two monitors connected to the NSR, you can perform settings and
monitoring operations on monitor 1 and hot spot monitoring on monitor 2.

Overview
Control compatible cameras from remote

You can pan, tilt, and perform zoom operations of
compatible cameras.
Compatible with analog cameras
You can monitor and record images from analog cameras
by connecting them directly to the unit
1) The NSR-1200/1100 requires an NSBK-A16 (optional)
expansion, while the NSR-1050H has a built-in connector.

.
High reliability
The NSR-1200 supports RAID 5
1)
and peforms with high
reliability. The system can continue functioning even if
one of the hard disks develops a malfunction. Similarly,
because the system software and settings are stored on the
internal flash memory of the NSR, if the system software
develops a malfunction, lightning-quick restoration of the
system is possible. The NSR also supports uninterruptible
power supplies (UPS)
2)
, making them extremely reliable
systems.
Chapter 1 Introduction
Large-capacity hard disks allow recording for
long periods of time
Equipped with large-capacity hard disks, the unit is
capable recording high-quality images for extended
periods of time. For reference examples, see “Reference Data for Installation” (page 11).
Slim type (2U), space-saving 19-inch rack
mounting model
With the optional rack mounting kit (sold separately), the
unit can be installed in a standard universal pitch EIA 19inch rack.
High-resolution up to 480 fps (VGA, JPEG)
recording
The NSR-1200 can support up to 64 cameras, the NSR1100 can support up to 32 cameras, and the NSR-1050H
can support up to 20 cameras. The NSR-1200 records
images at a total frame rate of 480 fps
NSR-1100, 120 fps with the NSR-1050H) in VGA
resolution (640 × 480 pixels)
2)
and JPEG image format (1
1)
(240 fps with the
frame about 31 KB) for a crisp image quality.
1) Maximum frame rate when 16 cameras are connected to the
recorder. Each camera has a frame rate of approximately 30
fps. This frame rate may become less because of
fragmentation on the internal hard disks. Values are based on
Sony measurements. These values are not guaranteed, as
performance may change due to the user’s operating
environment.
2) In QuadVGA resolution (1,280 × 960), the frame rate is 1/4
that of VGA resolution.
1) RAID 5 is a system for dividing and storing data and parity
(error correcting codes) onto more than one hard disk drive.
Although this system allows continued operation should one
of the hard disks malfunction, it does not guarantee restoration
of lost data. In addition, due to high internal processing loads
during reconstruction after you replace the malfunctioned
hard disk, the unit may not be able to record images at the
configured recording rate while reconstruction is in progress.
2) If the power turns off suddenly during operation, the data may
be corrupted. In particular, when using the unit together with
an NSRE-S200 or other expansion storage, use a UPS.
Other features
• You can display the images from up to 64 cameras
(8 × 8 images) on one screen.
• The NSR is capable of manual, scheduled, and alarm
recording, among others.
• The NSR is equipped with a motion detection function
1)
(Video Motion Detection (Recorder)).
• Run searches for recorded images by camera name, date,
alarm, and other methods.
• Create privacy zones by using the dynamic masking
functions
2)
. Dynamic masking covers pan, tilt, and
zoom.
• Precise alarm processing is made possible by performing
the various types of filtering
3)
that use the image
processing results sent from the camera in the form of
object information metadata. Because filtering can be
applied to metadata that has already been recorded, you
can also search for areas of interest after recording is
finished.
• Audio recording and playback
4)
are also supported from
compatible cameras.
1) Some functions are limited depending on the number of
cameras connected.
2) Some functions are limited depending on which camera
models are connected.
3) To perform motion detection and object detection using
metadata, a camera that supports motion detection by
metadata is required. The use of metadata is supported for up
to 32 cameras.
4) Optional audio amplifiers or speakers are required.

L Vent holes
These openings allow air to flow from the front of the
NSR to the rear.
Do not block the vent holes, allow dust to accumulate
in the inner mesh of the vent holes, or obstruct the
airflow in any way. Obstructing the airflow allows
heat to build up inside the NSR and may result in fire
or damage.
