Preface
Features
The network disk recorders WJ-NV200K and WJ-NV200K/G (hereinafter, recorders) are designed for use within a surveillance
system, and record images/audio from up to 16 network cameras (hereinafter, cameras) on the hard disk drives. Up to 16 camer-
as can be registered.
This recorder supports HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) standard which allows displaying playback/live images with
superior quality when connecting to a high-definition monitor using an HDMI cable (option). It is possible to operate cameras from
this recorder to display images from multiple cameras or switch cameras from which images are to be displayed, etc.
The recorders described in this installation guide are the models that are compatible as of July, 2010. Contact your dealer for fur-
ther information.
* No hard disk drive is supplied with this recorder. For purchasing the hard disk drive, contact your dealer.
High-definition image monitoring is available
Live images from up to 16 cameras with the image capture size of SXVGA (1280 x 960) can be displayed simultaneously.
In addition, this recorder supports the H.264 video compression format that can achieve recording at a high frame rate for a long
time.
This recorder also supports the Full HD output (HDMI) that can display recorded images and live images from the cameras in high
definition.
Quick setup and operations
By connecting the mouse (accessory) to this recorder, quick operations are available while viewing a monitor.
By using "Easy Start", the network cameras are automatically recognized without operations from the PC. Setup is available by
following the guidance.
Quick search is also available using a calendar or the timeline.
Real-time face matching function
By matching registered face images with a face displayed on live images in real time and by notifying the matching result, it will
be possible to check guests or discover suspicious people. That can be an aid to crime prevention.
Compatible with ecological monitor
By connecting with the Panasonic wide LCD color monitor (WV-LW1900, WV-LW1900/G, WV-LW2200, WV-LW2200/G: option),
the brightness control function, synchronized with mouse operations, the monitor can save the power consumption to 30 % -
60 % of that during normal use.
SDHC/SD memory card slot equipped
It is possible to save images recorded from cameras on a SDHC/SD memory card. Images copied on the SDHC/SD memory
card can be played back, printed or saved using the optional dedicated software.

This recorder (WJ-NV200K or WJ-NV200K/G) has the face matching function that compares the registered face images with a
face displayed on live images to detect a person with a closer match. When the person is detected, it is possible to activate an
alarm notification.
To use the face matching function, there are following restrictions.
 • OnlyCamera1isavailable.
 • Acamerasupportingthefacedetectionfunctionisrequired.
