Multiple Protection
In case of the failure of the DV tape drive, recording
operation continues on the built-in hard disk.
Conversely, the HSR-1/1P records the image data
directly onto the DV tape if the hard disk fails. (In
some cases, some of the data may be lost.)
For additional protection, the HSR-1/1P always checks
whether data is accurately recorded onto a tape. If a
recording failure is detected, the HSR-1/1P re-records
the same data onto the tape.
Less Space Required
Compact body
The HSR-1/1P features a compact body and is similar
in width to a 14-inch monitor.
Compact storage medium
Using DV cassettes of only 1/3 the volume of VHS
cassettes means your tape library takes up much less
space.
System Versatility
16 Camera inputs
The HSR-1/1P has four camera inputs as standard. Up
to three optional HSRA-11, four-input boards can be
installed, so up to 16 camera inputs can be provided.
Built-in multiplexing capability
The HSR-1/1P has built-in multiplexing capability,
which allows independent recording and monitoring.
There is also a choice of various monitoring patterns
by freely assigning multiple cameras to a single
monitor.
Output for a second monitor
The HSR-1/1P has two monitoring outputs A and B,
for which output images can be independently
selected. For example, it is possible to monitor the
image from one key camera on the B monitor, while
checking playback on the A monitor.
Flexible camera assignment
There are five preset recording modes, which can be
flexibly combined with your choice of picture quality
mode, tape length, recording time, number of camera
inputs and the recording cycle of each camera. This
feature allows you to assign cameras as you like. It is
possible, for instance, to record from all the cameras in
High mode during the day and then select some of these
cameras to be recorded from in Super mode at night.
RS-232C interface
The HSR-1/1P is equipped with an RS-232C interface
for communication with external equipment such as a
personal computer, to facilitate machine control, status
reporting, parameter presetting and user data read/write.
37-pin parallel port
The HSR-1/1P has a 37-pin parallel I/O interface,
whose pin functions can be freely configured for a
particular application.

Flexibility in Alarm Recording modes
To capture more and even sharper images, the HSR-1/
1P not only changes its recording mode to the higher
refresh and higher picture quality mode on alarm, but
also performs interleaved recording, which accelerates
the recording cycle of the camera in alarm status.
It can also record images from the camera in alarm
status only for a preset duration. In addition, since
alarm and timer recordings can be combined, the HSR-
1/1P can be set to normal recording mode during office
hours and set to alarm recording at night.
