Introduction
■Overview
The WJ-ASC960 is a software upgrade package for the WJ-MPU955A, and can be installed on top of the WJ-
MPU955A CPU. Refer to WJ-MPU955A Operating Instructions. The WJ-ASC960 software creates a distributed IP-
based network platform with one or more WJ-MPU955A CPU working together to form a large-scale security sys-
tem. It also offers a single CPU, not only to handle GX encoder and decoder*1 device-based digital video opera-
tions, but also SX matrix*2 device-based analog video operations.
GX System is high quality video imaging systems offering complete management of medium and large-scale instal-
lations. The WJ-ASC960 is capable of managing up to 64 CPU units. GX System is truly network-based systems,
and all the devices in the system are connected through IP-based networks.
*1 GX encoder and decoder: WJ-GXE900, WJ-GXD900 series (NTSC model only)
*2 SX matrix : System850 or WJ-SX650 512 x 64 Full Matrix System
Note: GX System is supported by NTSC model only.
■Purpose
This document provides end users with product information about the following.
• WJ-ASC960 software package
• WJ-SX650 512 x 64 Full Matrix System and GX System
■Precaution
We recommend that you refer all tasks related to the system installation to qualified service personnel or system
installers.

Terms and Definitions
■Video Switching
Video switching is an operation that connects a video input port to a video output port within a video switch node.
Because the switching occurs within the same node, the operation is certain to occur.
■Video Routing
Video routing is an operation that connects a video source device with a video destination device across one or
more video switch nodes. The video routing operation requires available video links to complete its task.
■Video Switch Node
A video switch node is a device or a group of devices that are capable of performing a video switch from any of its
video inputs to any of its video outputs. In the WJ-ASC960 based system, there are three types of video switch
nodes: GX switch node, SX850 switch node, and SX650 switch node.
GX switch node is formed with MPEG2 encoder devices and MPEG2 decoder devices. (NTSC model only)
SX850 switch node is formed with WJ-SX850 matrix switch devices, matrix control devices, matrix OSD devices and
matrix digital I/O devices.
SX650 switch node is formed with WJ-SX650 matrix switch devices.
■Video Link
A video link is a connection that can pass video from one video switch node to another. It can only transfer video in
one specified direction. In a WJ-ASC960 based system, a video link can be found in the following locations:
• From SX850 matrix switch device outputs to GX encoder inputs
• From SX850 matrix switch device outputs of one switch node to SX850 matrix switch device inputs of another
one
• From GX decoder devices to SX850 matrix switch device inputs
• From SX650 matrix switch device outputs to GX encoder inputs
• From SX650 matrix switch device outputs of one switch node to SX650 matrix switch device inputs of another
one
• From GX decoder devices to SX650 matrix switch device inputs
• From SX650 matrix switch device outputs to SX850 matrix switch device inputs
• From SX850 matrix switch device outputs to SX650 matrix switch device outputs
■Video Path
A video path is a connection between video source and video destination, which consists of one or more video links.

■System Unit
System unit refers to a CPU device or a set of active and standby CPUs. The CPU is a computer that manages all
the system resources and system devices within a system domain. In a WJ-ASC960-based system, the CPU refers
to a WJ-MPU955A CPU.
System Unit
■System Domain
A system domain is an entity that contains one system unit, up to 64 system controllers, only one GX switch node,
and only one SX850 or SX650 switch node. The domain is capable of performing system tasks as an independent
entity, or working with other domains to create a distributed network security system. In a WJ-ASC960 based sys-
tem, the system assigns its domain number equal to its unit number.
An SX650/SX850 switch node is always inside a system domain, while a GX switch node can be across more than
one domain, as shown in the following diagram.

Connect between System Components
The WJ-MPU955A Operating Instructions describes the connection between the WJ-MPU955A CPU with system
controllers, a CPU switch unit, digital video encoder devices, digital video decoder devices, and layer 3 network
switch units. If you are not familiar with the above, we recommend that you read “Connect with System Devices”
section of the WJ-MPU955A Operating Instructions first.
This section will focus on new devices and connections that only associate with the WJ-ASC960 system.
■Global Data Network and System Domains
The global data network is an IP-based network that connects two or more system domains together. The network is
also called system data control network. The system domains use this network to pass system control and operation
commands, as well as system data information, between domains.
Global Data Network Diagram
■Global Network and System Domains
As stated on page 6, the WJ-ASC960 system only has one GX switch node. The digital video network is an IP-based
network, which is created to transmit digital video streams within a system domain or cross multiple system domains.
It is part of the GX switch node, which consists of all the GX encoder and encoder devices. When designing a new
system, we recommend that you separate the global data network and digital video network.

■Video Link Network and Video Switch Nodes
The video link network consists of one or more video links, which connect one video switch node to another, and
passes analog video across different video switch nodes. The following diagrams show a sample of a video link net-
work in a WJ-ASC960 system.
Video Link Network Diagram
As shown in the above diagram, a video link has its own direction. You can find video links from digital decoder
devices to matrix video device inputs, from matrix video device outputs to digital encoder devices, and between one
matrix video device and another one. In the case of video links between two matrix video devices, these two matrix
video devices must be in different video switch nodes.

■Global System Controllers
Only Panasonic Ethernet type controllers (i.e. WV-CU950) can act as a global controller when global operators login.
You can refer page 27 for creating global (system) operators. To get connection information for system controllers,
please refer to WJ-MPU955A Operating Instructions.
■Global Database
The system uses global database to setup multiple domains based system. The WJ-ASC960 system with version
v4.2 and up should use WJ-ASC960 Admin Console V4.2 for both local database and global database setup.
■WJ-ASC960 Admin Console for Global Setup
The administration tool WJ-ASC960 V4.2 is database management software for multiple domain based system
setup. The software operates in the Microsoft Windows environment. If users are familiar with previous versions of
Panasonic system, we used to have separated global administration tool software just for global database. With WJ-
ASC960 V4.2 and up, the global administration tool software is not required for global database setup.
The WJ-ASC960 Admin Console should connect to the system’s global data network. It should be able to reach
each system domain’s CPU units.

11
System Examples
The following sub-sections provide three sample system architectures to help system engineers setup a WJ-ASC960
system.
■Single System Domain with Both GX and SX850 Switch Node
The following system contains one GX switch node and one SX850 switch node. The GX switch node consists of
two WJ-GXE900 encoders and one WJ-GXD900 decoder. The SX850 switch node contains a WJ-SX850 matrix
frame box with WJ-PB85X08 (MXCONT), WJ-PB85C16, WJ-PB85M16(MXSW), and WJ-PB85T08(MXOSD) boards.
There are four video links from WJ-GXD900 decoder to WJ-PB85C16 video inputs. The system also has WV-CU950
controllers for system or local operators, and a PC station with WJ-ASC960 Admin Console. The system’s WJ-
MPU955A CPU must have the WJ-ASC960 upgrade software installed in order to perform all of the system func-
tions. The sample Local database –01=hybrid850.adm-and sys.ini file –01A=sys.ini-for Administration Console are
provided on the CD-ROM. The sample Global database - #=hybrid850.gdm - for Admin is provided on the CD-ROM.

■Single System Domain with Both GX and SX650 Switch Node
The following system contains one GX switch node and one SX650 switch node. GX switch node consists of two
WJ-GXE900 encoders and one WJ-GXD900 decoder. SX650 switch node contains a WJ-SX650 matrix switcher
input, output and a WJ-PB65E01 network board. There are four video links from WJ-GXD900 decoder to WJ-SX650
input board. The system also has WV-CU950 controllers for system or local operators, and a PC station with WJ-
ASC960 Admin Console. The system’s WJ-MPU955A CPU must have the WJ-ASC960 upgrade software installed in
order to perform all of the system functions. The sample Local database –01=hybrid650.adm-and sys.ini file –
01A=sys.ini-for Administration Console are provided on the CD-ROM. The sample Global database -

System Setup
■Define a System Domain
●Number of System Domains
By definition, each system domain must have a WJ-MPU955A CPU. If it is a redundant system, it must have two
WJ-MPU955A CPUs. The system can consist of up to 64 system domains.
●Domain and Unit ID Assignments
For each CPU, you must assign a Unit ID. Once a Unit ID is assigned, the system will refer to its Domain ID equal to
this Unit ID.
●Enter Unit ID in the WJ-ASC960 Admin Console
In the WJ-ASC960 Admin Console main screen, select CPU Units on the Domain menu. The CPU System
Configuration screen will be activated. Then, enter the Unit(s) information into the fields provided. In the following
table, we used the example on page 15 to show what information you would need to enter.
Unit ID Main IPA [A] Backup IPA [B] Unit Name Size
1 172.16.192.1 –Domain 1 Enhanced
2 172.16.192.2 –Domain 2 Enhanced
●Enter Unit ID in the System Configuration File
In each WJ-MPU955A CPU, there is a system configuration file named SYS.INI. You can view and edit the file
through WJ-ASC960 Admin Console. For each new system domain that is set up, you need to enter the correct ID in
the [UNIT] section of the SYS.INI file. The following is the text from the SYS.INI file's [UNIT] section.
[UNIT]
***{ The unit ID should be the same as the one defined in }
***{ the Global Admin database for this unit. }
***{ For single-unit systems, use ID=1. (ID=0 is invalid) }
ID=1
