PREFACE

The WJ-HD500B Digital Disk Recorder is a combination of

a Hard Disk Recorder with a Video Multiplexer; it is able to

record the images of up to sixteen sequentially controlled

video inputs on the built-in hard disk.

A multi-recording function records simultaneously several

images from various applications; this enables you to

obtain reliable records by selecting the application which is

best suited for your purpose.

FEATURES

• One recorder can handle sixteen video inputs, divid-

ed into four groups, corresponding to various appli-

cations.

Dividing the sixteen video inputs into four groups

makes it possible to record several images simultane-

ously, depending on the system requirements, such as

varied input, image quality, recording time, etc.

• Easy image search

Three search modes for quick and easy images search:

rotating the shuttle ring, recording list and thumbnail

display.

• Other handy recording functions

• Use the program timer to preset the recording time and

mode for each day of the week.

• Reliable recording of events

Obtain reliable records of important events by selecting

the recording mode best suited.

• Emergency recording is given priority to record all

video inputs in Time Lapse Recording while the input is

received from an outboard device.

There are three recording modes: One Shot, Multi Shot

and Time Lapse Recording.

• Connect the extension units in series for uninterrupted

recording when the disk is full.

PRECAUTIONS

• Refer all work related to the installation of this

product to qualified service personnel or system

installers.

• Fully charge up the backup battery.

Keep the appliance turned on for at least 48 hours to

recharge the backup battery. This procedure is neces-

sary when using the appliance for the first time or after

it has been unplugged for a long time from the AC out-

let. Insufficient charging of the battery may cause era-

sure of settings if the AC power supply should fail. The

battery, if fully charged, will back up the settings for 72

hours in an ordinary environment.

• Do not block the ventilation opening or slots on the

cover.

To prevent the appliance from overheating, place it at

least 5 cm (2 inches) away from the wall.

• Do not drop metallic parts through slots.

This could permanently damage the appliance. Turn

the power off immediately and contact qualified service

personnel for service.

• Compatibilities

There are some compatibility restrictions between the

WJ-HD500B and the optional devices: Network Boards

and the capacity of the HDD installed in the connected

Extension Units.

• Do not attempt to disassemble the appliance.

To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or

covers.

There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact

qualified service personnel for maintenance.

Cautions:

• The cooling fan inside the Disk Recorder is subject to

wear and needs to be replaced periodically.

• Do not block the ventilation opening or slots in the

cover to prevent the appliance from overheating.

Always keep the temperature in the rack below 45°C

(113°F).

• If the rack is subject to vibration, secure the rear of the

appliance to the rack by using additional mounting

brackets (procured locally).

function, the replaced Hard Disk is automatically

copying the data from the other disk of the pair after

the disk was formatted.

•

MIRRORING FUNCTION

The mirroring function uses an auxiliary array of inexpen-

sive disks to record the same data on two disks at the same

time.

If an error or malfunction occurs on one of the hard disks,

the other disk still records the data normally. This ensures

reliability of the system, since the data will always be avail-

able on one of the disks.

3. If the Disk Recorder is powered up successfully, the

displays as shown below will appear.

HARD DISK and RECORDING

The WJ-HD500B Hard Disk Recorder records the images on the Hard Disk as shown below, dividing space into six disk sec-

tors.

There are three recording modes, Time Lapse, Multi Shot and One Shot, to obtain reliable records by selecting the mode best

suited for your purpose.

I Hard Disk

As described above, the divided hard disks are used for each recording method (Manual, Internal Programmed Timer, etc.),

as shown below.

Hard Disk (HDD)

Group 4

Emergency Recorder

• Manual Recorder

Records time lapse recording manually by selecting [OFF] for the timer.

Power on recording is also enabled by selecting [EXT] for the timer.

• Timer Recorder

Records the assigned camera group input with the internal timer in three recording modes by selecting [INT] for timer.

The same camera input can not be assigned to another group.

• Emergency Recorder

This recording is given priority to record all video inputs in Time Lapse Recording while the input is received from an out-

board device.

Note: With the above method, the hard disk space is divided into imaginary sectors, but there are no partitions. For this

reason, there is no pre-determined disk space for each recorder.

I Time Lapse Recording

The Time Lapse Recording records freeze images at regular intervals until the end of the recording operation.

• Manual and External (Power-on) Timer Recording is recorded in this mode on the Manual Recorder. Refer to the Manual

Recording Setup for further details.

• Emergency Recording is also recorded in this mode on the Emergency Recorder. Refer to the Emergency Recording

Setup for further details.

• This recording mode is also available as Internal Timer Recording with the assigned program timer. Refer to the assigned

program timer for further details.

The Time Lapse Recording mode records images as shown below.

Start

Thumbnail

Notes:

• The thumbnail is based on an image as soon as the recorder starts recording.

• The recording number is automatically assigned and renewed after 5 000 images.

The thumbnail is also made with an image at that time.

I Multi Shot Recording

The Multi Shot Recording is an event-recording function reacting to an alarm input when the recording timer is set to the inter-

nal timer [INT].

It records the number of images in pre- and post-recording.

Pre-recording is the recorded images during standby, prior to the input of an alarm signal.

Post-recording is the recorded images after the input of the alarm signal.

The Multi Shot Recording mode is a setting that can be assigned with the program timer.

The Multi Shot Recording mode records images on the Timer Recorder, corresponding to the alarm input signal, as shown

below.

For example, camera inputs 1, 2, 3 and 4 are assigned to a group.

• Dynamic Recording is set to OFF

Records the assigned camera input in a specified number of pre- and post-recording when an alarm is received.

nal timer [INT].

It records the number of particular images that have activated the alarm.

When the system is equipped with specified combination camera, it starts recording alarm images after the camera moves to

the specified preset position.

The One Shot Recording mode records images on the Timer Recorder corresponding to the alarm input, as shown below.
