PREFACE
System Controller WV-CU950 and WV-CU650 are designed for setup and operation of cameras and other system units
installed in a surveillance system.
FEATURES
• This product can control cameras, matrix switchers, and recording devices such as digital disk recorders.
• One WV-CU950/650 System Controller can control two or more PS·Data system devices.
In addition, up to 4 system controllers can be connected for multiple operation. The system controller has improved func-
tions such as camera control, multiscreen segment switching, and search playback. These are fundamental functions to
surveillance control systems.
• Improved camera controllability
This product has employed a 3D joystick which is separated from the main unit. You can control the camera zooming by
moving the zoom wheel controller of joystick, so that you can control cameras and pan/tilt heads by holding the joystick
with one hand.
• Improved recorder controllability
This product has employed the JogDial and shuttle ring to improve the control of recorded images.
• Customization flexibility
You can assign frequently-used functions to the function buttons. The function assignment is possible while watching the
LCD.
• Authentication by user ID’s and passwords
Operation authority (=user level) is assignable to each user ID. In addition, password is assignable to prevent inappropri-
ate operations.
• System Controller WV-CU950 can control Central Processing Unit WJ-MPU955 and System 850 Matrix Switcher via
an Ethernet (10/100 Base-T) network.
Note: You need to upgrade the software version of Central Processing Unit WJ-MPU955/855/850.

covers.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact
qualified service personnel for maintenance.
• Do not expose nor operate the appliance in
wet/damp conditions.
Take immediate action if the appliance gets wet. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel. Moisture could
damage the appliance and also cause electric shocks.
• Handle the appliance with care.
Do not strike or shake, as this may damage the appli-
ance.
• Do not expose the appliance to water or moisture.

cleaning the appliance body.
Use a dry cloth to clean the appliance when it is dirty.
When the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent
and wipe gently.
• Do not operate the appliance beyond its specified
temperature, humidity, or power source ratings.
Use the appliance under conditions where tempera-
tures are between –10 °C and + 50 °C {14 °F to 122
°F}, and humidity below 90 %.
The appliance may be not linked to a network after turn-
ing on in a cold atmosphere between –10 °C and 0 °C
{14 °F to 32 °F}. Wait approximately 20 minutes until the
inside temperature has risen to 0 °C {32 °F}, it can be
linked to a network.
The input power source for this appliance is 120 V AC,
60 Hz.
• Do not use any AC adapter other than the one
supplied.
• Only use the appliance indoors.
Do not install it in places where the appliance is
